Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Well the end of Halloween is quickly approaching (ends Nov. 12th), so I figured now would be a good time to take a look at how all of the new additions from Halloween 2014 impact your Conform-O-Meter rating.
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.
While the Halloween event brought no changes to the Conform-O-Meter requirements, it did bring us a ton of new items to add to our Springfield. Let’s take a look at how all of the new “goodies” impact our rating….

Is there going to be a thanksgiving mini update or something? With all balloons as returning items along with Tribal chief + Casino, Sacagawea Lisa, Turkey, Casino sign, Mayflower, etc. Along with maybe some new balloons.
Don’t know
Actually Mayflower returned as a permanent item, never mind.
