THOH Status…

Updated below…

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Saw a few of you commenting about this this morning…

Guys…this is very clearly a joke. (Not a typo from Matt…he didn’t mean 10/21) He’s likely starting to get annoyed at all the TSTO tweets he’s getting so, in typical Simpsons fashion, he’s poking fun at TSTO, EA, and the players.

We’ll see what happens next week. For now it’s Saturday and episode 666 is tomorrow.  So relax and enjoy your weekend!

Update: he’s now added a new tweet. I still believe the original was a joke though. (49 weeks before Halloween 2020…come on guys, that’s a joke)…

Friday Filler – What Does $2K in TSTO Donuts Look Like?

Posted on October 18, 2019 by | 60 comments

Thank Grog It’s Firday!

And, thank Grog that one of our readers gave me something to write about. Because I sure as heck had nothing good to write about as far as the “update” that didn’t happen…again.

Wednesday, when the update was SUPPOSED to happen, one of our disgruntled readers posted their displeasure about the lack of an update, including information about what they had invested in the game over the years he had been playing.

It rEAlly made me think…

The Sounds of TSTO: Squidport

Posted on October 17, 2019 by | 4 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Your senses can evoke powerful memories in you. The smell of saltwater can trigger you back to your youth spent at the beach, the touch of cotton can bring you back to memories of your mom, and hearing sounds of TSTO can bring back countless hours spent tap, tap, tapping away.

So let’s take a trip down memory lane via the sound effects of TSTO…

Name that TSTO Tune- Squidport

Posted on October 16, 2019 by | 18 comments

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Tapped Out is a game we’ve all been playing for years, but how well do you really know the game?  Can you guess buildings/characters/items based on sound?  Or are you like me, and play without your sound turned on so you don’t have a clue which sound goes with what?  Well, we’re about to find out!

Each week we’ll be bringing you a Name that TSTO Tune game, based on an era of TSTO of our choosing.  Each sound effect for the week will all be from a certain time period in the game/event, which we will disclose to you, so base your guess off of that knowledge.

Now without further ado, let’s get to this week’s Name that TSTO Tune game!

Super Safi’s Monday Morning Math Mayhem 23 – Smith Numbers

Posted on October 14, 2019 by | 40 comments

Morning Mathematical Monsters & Maniacs!

(Today’s post is sponsored by the letter “M”)

 

Hi, I’m Super Safi and you may remember me from such stats and strategy posts as Kwik-E-Mart Farming and the advanced losing-to-win Superheroes battle strategy.

Over the past 600+ episodes, The Simpsons has taken us on an amazing mathematical journey involving fractions, probability, Fermat’s last theorem, and hundreds of other aspects from the wonderful world off mathematics.

And what better way to start your week, then by discussing math Monday morning?

In honour of Canadian Thanksgiving on Monday October 14th, we go back to the first Thanksgiving episode of The Simpsons and look at Smith numbers.

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

It’s that time of the week again, time for the Addicts Weekly Open Thread!  So, let’s get the conversation going!  Oh and remember…just because this is posted here today doesn’t mean you can’t comment on it all week long.  This open thread will still be open for comments long after today is over!

So, here is your Open Thread…..

Simpsons are back!  An all-new episode airs tonight!  Don’t forget to watch…

We’re officially awaiting Halloween…will the update hit this week?  What do you think it will involve?

How’s your designing coming?  What are you doing with your town? Share some photos in the comments below! (If you need a refresher on how to add photos to the comments check out this post) 

And finally, how about the rest of your weekend?  Do anything fun and exciting?

So chat about the Simpsons, TSTO, Update fun, or anything else you can think of! (Just no politics, it never ends well)  Can’t wait to chat with you all, you know we love hearing from you!
