Level 37 and the Conform-O-Meter

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Did ya miss me?  Hopefully, if all went well, you didn’t even notice I was gone!  Well after a week (plus a day or two) away, I’ve officially locked Bunny back up in the basement and regained control…please ignore those shouts for help!

What a way to come back to Tapped Out, with a bright and sunny Springfield and Level 37!  And what better way to come back than a Level 37 Conform-O-Meter post?  With the release of Level 37 many of the requirements to maintain 5 Stars on your Conform-O-Meter have changed, so I want to make sure I get this information out to my favorite Addicts!  Now you’ll have all the information you need to maintain that 5-Star Springfield!  

The Conform-O-Meter is an important part of Tapped-Out because it provides you with a bonus boost in your cash and  XP from everything you collect in the game.  When you achieve a 5-Star Town (it’s max rating) you will receive a 5% bonus on all money and XP collected in your town.  If you missed the previous Conform-O-Meter posts check here for the basics and here for how many points you’ll need to reach 5 stars.

The Level 37 update has introduced 3 new buildings, 2 new characters, 2 new decorations, 1 food cart for both Springfield & Krustyland & all new point amounts required to reach a 5-Star Springfield.  At Level 37 here’s what you’ll need to max out your Conform-O-Meter:

Level Indolence Obedience Consumerism/
    Gluttony
37     460      270       252/276
Tree-hugging
     /Vanity
Righteousness Socialism
19,325/30,370          165     1,530

As you can see, Level 37 has increased the Indolence Rating requirement (+10, 1 more house), the Obedience Rating requirement (+10), the Tree-Hugging Rating requirement (+1,210), the Vanity Rating requirement (+1,700), the Righteousness Rating requirement (+8) and the Socialism Rating requirement (+96).  The Gluttony & Consumerism Ratings (for once) remain the same with no increase.

Now I’m sure you’re wondering, ‘How will the new buildings/decorations help me max out?’  Well, here’s how:

Item Cost Category Points
Bachelor Arms Apartments $253,500 Consumerism 10
Office of Unemployment $310,500 Indolence 10
Cracker Factory 150 Donuts Indolence 10
Cracker Fountain 30 Donuts Vanity 300
Fleet-A-Pita $5,600 Gluttony 2
Fleet-A-Pita (Krustyland) 500 Tickets Grub 20
Golden Calf Idol 30 Donuts Obedience 10

Let us know how your Conform-O-Meter rating is doing!  Are you maxed out?  If not, what area currently needs a boost?

Episode Recap: YOLO (once again cats have it better)

I am a lucky Wookiee.  Not only do you guys and gals take the time to read my rambles, but once again I got the “job” of watching the latest Simpsons episode and writing about.  I just feel like starting off with a Thank You.  Although I can enjoy episodes all on my own, it is such a joy to share it.

yolo

Before I begin, I just have to admit this episode had a lot of laughs in it.  While I try to be as comprehensive as possible, if you liked something I missed, please share in the comments below.
