    Oh, OK.. Err what?!

    I think it's unfair to have so many $100 cash and only 1 prize left. My chances of getting this are very unlikely
    and I refuse to gamble real money on it.

    Is there a trick to getting what you want on this wheel?
    I've spent about 40 tokens and still can't get the yeti.
    In fact the last 10 spins have landed on $1000 cash. :(


    I only have the yeti and claus co left but I seem to barely miss the Yeti most of the time. My trick is that you make sure teh Yeti is on the opposite side of the pointer then you give the wheel a brief spin. Hopefully i get him before the event ends...

    The trick is, you'll never get what you're trying for if you create a thread about it.

    Its true! The more you post about it, the more the wheel becomes a giant funsucking monster :-)
    Its all psychological 8)

    Dont spend money on the tokens. You can get a lot of spinning prowess just by doing part 18 of the holiday
    quest line over and over :-)

    Thanks for the reply.

    Was I supposed to do something differently to keep the characters producing gift cards?
    They were during the mission where they were all hunting for Simpsons, but that seems to be completed and they have returned to just giving cash.

    Now all I get are the cards from Homer, Bart, Lisa, Apu, and from other Springfields.

    You COULD have not sent Lisa and/or Homer to hide. That way you could have kept everyone else hunting for them forever basically.

    You weren't supposed to either let Homer and Lisa start their part of the task or not let them end their task.

    I don't know if there is a trick but I just cleared with the Helter Shelter on a backwards spin and a little prayer. Took me over 116k cards but I didn't spend any donuts either. Good luck!

    You don't send Homer and Lisa to "hide from Springfielders," or click the thumbs up to finish the task. This way you can send your entire Springfield residents to "hunt for Simpsons," over and over and collect thousands and thousands of gift cards. This then means for spins for the wheel of ****.

    I think you need to take some of your own advise instead of coming into a thread that obviously you read the title about and knew exactly what it is. With a premeditated state of mind to attack someone who writes something that you could see as a chance to through your 2 cents in. Why even bother dude. Just makes you look like a *. If you don't like the thread why even bother coming in and saying what you did. Does it make you feel better boasting of your achievements because you just so happen to have not experienced the type of hard luck some are having. I hope it does.

    Dude, it was a joke. Do you really think posts on here affects what happens on the wheel? I didn't boast about anything and you're the one attacking everyone that's not crying along with you. Grow up.

    Any more conclusions you want to make on your own? Iam just over people whinging about wheel threads. "It's just a game" and ra ra ra "if you don't like it don't play it". Fair call, but does that go the same with them and reading constant wheel threads? Simple don't like don't read. I couldn't care less what everyone else is doing or thinking. It's got nothing to do with that, it's to do with people opening a thread themselves and can't help it but to comment if they don't like what there reading. Why bother at all? Read another topic. That's my point. Is it really that hard? That's when "Grow up" applies.

    Kinda like you going on to the "Who completed the wheel" thread and complaining on there as well? You haven't completed it so you should have stayed off of that thread right?

    So your singling me out of everyone else that complained on there. Dude I was just riding the wave. Maybe check who changed the direction of the thread and point the blame at them. Because as we all know, people love to jump on the bandwagon. Not nice when the shoe is on the other foot so to speak is it? And besides it depends on how you take it? I took that thread as a question, just like 99% of the others did.
