Update 10pm EDT: Just finally finished the questline (crazy day)…and found a bonus awarded at the end of it.  Details below the fold….

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Looks like we’ve got ourselves a St. Patrick’s Day Update afterall! Green rivers (my favorite!), decorations and FREE DONUTS!!!

Lots of details with this one…including a new questline (using an old building) plus a Gil deal.

You will need Cletus Free for the first part….(30 min task)

More details in a bit…Details below the fold…

Most of this update is going to be reruns of items from St. Patrick’s Day past…so older players try not to get too upset with the content.  Especially since most of us thought we wouldn’t see an update this year…oh and there’s free donuts!  So let’s take a look at what’s in store for us!

Questlines

Catch the Leprachaun is back!  

Note: This questline will only appear if you have one of the Leprechauns in your Springfield.  ie buying a premium item that gives the Leprechaun.

Cletus: Did a mythical creature just run across my yard? Oh miracle of creation! Brandine, get my shotgun!
Cletus: I’ve hunted raccoons, gators, possum, bargains, and briefly Nazis, but I ain’t never hunted no leprechauns.
Cletus: Scraped one off the highway once. It had tasty hearts, stars, and clovers, but I didn’t care for them horseshoes or balloons.

Catch the leprechaun by tapping on him ten times! (This will alternate between giving you XP and $$ each time you catch up to him and tap him again.)

New questline involving O’Flanagan’s Pub again…

O’Flan-again is the new questline for 2015.  This starts with Cletus.  We’ll cover the full rundown in another post..

Once you’ve completed the O’Flan-again questline you’ll be awarded a free stack of beer in the game.  This is a 35 donut item that you’ll get for FREE.  It’ll award you a 0.75% bonus on all cash and XP

Gil’s Back!

And after we just said goodbye too!  This time Gil’s got a bit of the Irish with him and he’s offering the Blarney Castle.  Here’s what he’ll say in your town.

Gil: Hell there, Mr. Szyslak!  Now I know you told me never to show my sad face in here again, but I’ve got something you are going to love.  Isn’t this broken mirror calling your name?  It comes pre-cracked, so you don’t have to worry about bad luck.
Moe: It would be nice to not have to see myself as I actually appear when I look in the mirror.  Sold!
Gil: Wow!  Gilly boy, better stop while you’re ahead.  Unless, Mr. Simpson, you’d like this box of chocolates for your wife?
Homer: I ate all the chocolates while you were talking.  How much do I owe you?
Gil: Oh, it’s pretty expensive. Those were rare expired, I mean vintage chocolates.
Homer: Here’s everything in my wallet.  Cash, coupons, full punch cards, pictures of loved ones.
Gil: Oh boy!  Gil’s big day.  Cash and a pretend family to show off to the boys at the Y.  They are not going to believe it.  Now if I could only sell this Irish Castle that’s rumored to be good luck, I’ll be having steak dinner tonight!  Steak fries dinner, that is.  Ol Gil’s still in a lot of debt.

If you choose not to take it you’ll see…

Gil: You must be swimming in good fortune to be passing up this old, drafty, haunted castle!  Luckily for Ol’ Gil, the ghosts keep me company!

If you choose to buy it you’ll see…

Gil: Another Sale!  Wait…did I just sell the one thing that was helping me sell things?  Oh, Gil, another quarter you won’t make the Port-au-Price Business School’s alumni newsletter.

The castle is 7×8 in size (kinda small in height).  Earns $200, 22xp/8hrs.  And it comes with a couple of short questlines….one for Homer and one for Moe.

So there you have it my tapping friends!  The details of St. Patrick’s Day 2015!  Enjoy it while it’s here as it’s set to disappear in a week…March 23rd, 2015.  

What do you think of the St. Patrick’s Day Update?  Have you purchased any of the items?  Thoughts on the new questline?  Do you enjoy the green river as much as I do?  Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!
