Thanksgiving event already?

I noticed ingame that the Shattered Dreams Box is going to expire tomorrow on wednesday, at the same time as the current Halloween event. This is very unusual as usually, the Shattered Dreams Box only expires right when the following event starts and inbetween events, there is usually about a week time. Is this some sort of oversight on EAs part or is the next event really going to happen right when the current event ends tomorrow? If not, why does the SH box expire so soon? It wouldn't make any sense if there would just be no Box between events, as that has been the standard for a couple months now, and it wouldnt make any financial sense either. I mean, I wouldn't mind NOT having to wait a whole week for the next event, but I'm just very confused.

  • Hopefully the next Thanksgiving event starts tomorrow.

    Nice, so it really does start earlier than usual. I'm guessing because they wanna have the christmas event not start quite so late.
  • Awesome... looks like I'll be able to upgrade my football stadium.r2lyg6aj4pzu.jpg

  • Wow. We'll finally get Marge's car. Woo hoo!
  • So we’re getting a Springfield Atoms event, but no Stan Taylor??? This is madness. I’ve been asking for him for years

  • Get your pocket books ready.
    Make Nightmare Pile like Zombie Sandwich. All kids trick or treat at once.
  • Well there goes 5000 donuts and I still don't have everything :o:o

  • The usual cycle is a 5 week event with a week off then a 2 week event with a week off, rinse and repeat.
    That's 9 weeks and they aim to do 6 multi and 6 mini events a year.
    9 weeks x 6 = 54 weeks, so they need to skip the week off twice to fit it all in. That help ??

    I was wondering if Marge's car would ever make it in the game. Now we just need Lil Bandit.
    Fear my pointy horn!

    I'm glad I got Jackpot Realty in the boxes this year.
    It was the only item left in the boxes, so it was an instant win.
    There's still a lot of Black Friday stuff left that I still need.
    At least now I don't have to wait too long to unlock the rest of the land.

    The game gave you 1 golden token at the start of the event. It seems some people, like myself exchanged it for 12 doughnuts by mistake instead, which was a option.

    Once this one token is used on the golden boxes it clears the task. If you swapped it, it won't.

    Tokens are needed for only one of the boxes, the others can be purchased using doughnuts.

    The other task that involves doughnuts is optional. I bought 132 doughnuts for £7:99. This gave me 17 golden tokens.
  • There are Shattered Dreams tokens that are usually earned through tasks or bought
    There are Golden Tokens that need you to go spend real money
    There are Tokens for assorted misery boxes bought with donuts
    Theses are as diverse as you or I or the last time you saw someone so different from who you are you had to take a moment to check.
    Shattered Tokens are not the same as Gold Tokens or donut-bought tokens or any other.
