    Lol, and I just have my donuts waiting there to buy the fountain and basketball game and the hotdog stand and the other one....but i refuse to use donuts to speed up tiles :roll: More power to those that do, though :wink:

    +1 I've just got to the task of building the Frying Dutchman but have to build four more tiles first. I haven't bought anything that isn't required for the questlines yet. It's frustrating that you can't make better use of those entrance tiles though.

I'll be waiting for more tiles before I make my Squidport look... at least somewhat realistic. I'd like to have enough space to have all the buildings and then fence around all except, say, a few fishing piers and a boat dock.

    I've spent no donuts on it (and will continue to spend no donuts on it, most likely), so it'll take some time. But that's ok. :)

    (Yes, I have a lot of characters not on tasks.)

    I'm trying to figure out which character that is on the road above your squidport - looks like Homer in a black cap but I don't recognise the skin???

    Got my 15th tile this morning and played my daily game of boardwalk Tetris. Managed to get all the buildings, the stands and the Ferris Wheel placed...

    Currently building my 16th boardwalk section it will be ready early Sunday Morning (36 hour build), I am glad that the tile bug has been fixed. I didn't want to be waking up to collect at that hour!

    Stored my lemonade stand from my previous post so I could get the four tiles i need to have all buildings in a row and not doubled up! I will move the lemonade stand back to right hand side of the boardwalk once I have my next tile.

    Here is how my Squidport is looking now : -

    You don't have to wait for the tiles to build the Frying Dutchman. I started building mine with 13 tiles. You just have to wait for 16 tiles to clear the task and begin the next.

    They improve your gluttony, more than just decorations.

    So I have slowly built up my squidport without using any donuts. Lots of arranging and rearranging the tiles. Tell me how u think its going. And those that havent used any donuts could post their squidport for ideas.

    That's right, the lemonade stand alone is worth half a star. I had 4.5 stars, then had to build fried dough stand. Soon as I put lemonade stand in inventory it went down to 4 stars. The donut stand doesn't do as much if anything to your gluttony rating.

    I know a lot of people don't like the tile build times. However, I enjoy seeing how Squidports in other town evolve as they add buildings and tiles.

    Mines as of today.
