Hey there Hoppereenos!
Having a lot of fun yet? Enjoying your game of Tap Ball? Freaking out that you don’t know how many Hats to earn each day? Trying to figure out the calculations with the higher amount needed now?
Well no worries. My handy dandy Calendar for Act Two is here.
ACT TWO WILL END MORNING OF JULY 13th (4AM EDT)
EVENT CALENDAR STARTING JULY 3rd/DAY 2 OF ACT 2
As per usual, I will be starting the Calendar one day AFTER Act Two releases so you can factor in time you will need to send Characters on tasks, get Buildings, and fully launch the Event. I will also be stopping it the night BEFORE Act Two ends, as it is REALLY early in the AM for the USA.
Again, do not panic. Remember that it is slow going at first so you may “appear” to be behind, but as you progress in Act Two you will start to see that you are getting more and more and more each day. So just go at a pace that fits you, but remember the more you play the more you will get.
Now you have a basic daily breakdown for 10 days based off of approximately 3334 Hats a day.
ACT TWO PRIZES
Here is the list of Prizes you can win by just playing the game and collecting Hats.
Ally McBalls- 5,800 
Wire Obstacle- 11,900
Springy- 17,800
Log Obstacle- 23,800
Tennis Marge- 30,000
OVERTIME BONUS
Don’t stop collecting Hats once you hit 30000, because you WILL have that extra chance at the 3 Donut Mystery Boxes once again. Every 3000 Extra Hats Earned will give you a Chance at them.
Word of caution on this one, if you are NOT in your town when you hit the bonus, any additional Hats collected may not count towards the 3000 (they will your main total). So be careful. If you are close, you may want to go back to your Springfield just before you hit it. This is due to once it triggers the final prize, it will take a few minutes to go through all the pop ups for it. This causes the Bonus Round Pop Up to delay as you tap through them. That means any additional beyond the 30000 earned when you hit it will NOT count to the Overtime Bonus until you see the Pop Up. For instance if you earn 30000, the extra 100 will go to your total, but nothing will add to the Bonus until Overtime Bonus pops up. So the counts may be slightly off.
Once you hit your 30000, you will see the Tap Finger pointing at your Task Menu towards a Hat Icon. Tapping on the Hat Icon will then pop up the Overtime Bonus. You will see now your running total for the additional 3000 to get access to the 3 Mystery Donut Boxes.
Then, no matter where in the game you are, when you hit that extra 3000… the 3 Mystery Donut Boxes will appear and ask you to choose.
If you do not get it the first time, you can “BUY” another Mystery Box. So if you are set on getting the 3 Donuts no matter what, have some extra $$$ Sitting aside (at least $300,000) to have a chance at all 3 if needed.
There you have it. A Calendar of Hats to keep you on track for all 5 Personal Prizes. Plus some Bonus Donuts. We KNOW you love BONUTS!!! 😛
What do you think of it so far? Where are YOU in the game? How are your totals coming along? Let us know.

I was just a couple hundred shy of getting Tennis Marge. I was out of town on vacation and wanted a one day break. Is there anyway to require this character as this was the only reason why I wanted to play this event. Marge is the only main character that doesn’t have an extra skin in my town. Donuts?
Donuts are the only option at this time.
Yay!!! 15 bonus donuts collected already from this event: 3 from act 1 and 12 from act 2. If the current trend continues i should get 9 more before act 2 draws to a close. EA this is too easy. 😀
I bought 60 donuts but they didn’t show up. How would I contact EA or get my donuts that I bought.

Currently just shy of 28,000 hats, so about 2.5 days ahead of schedule… for once! It’s refreshing not to be in a panic every day trying to compete with their insane requirements. Act one was the same; finished a few days early.
Howdy, I’ve got 30k hats and unlocked tennis marge, but it’s not showing in my inventory or in marge outfits selection. Is there meant to be a quest that initiate before we get to use the tennis large? Cheers
It’s going around, my best advice is to contact EA
I had the same issue, where Tennis Marge was not showing, i contacted EA via live chat and about 5-10 minutes later she appeared in my inventory, however there are still 2 Marge Tennis Skins showing in the inventory. I have sent Marge on her first 4hr task which has completed and now sent her on the next, a 24hr ‘Crab Walk’, Still not available to play TapBall though??
The Tap Ball thing is weird, because it should happen instantly…
I won Tennis Marge, but can’t find the skin or see her on the tap ball roster. What’s up– possible glitch or is there a trigger to add?
Try storing Moe’s Tavern, if that doesn’t help contact EA let them know.
Having the same problem myself. Storing Moe’s hasn’t worked for me.
My best advice at the moment is to contact EA
4 days ahead, 7th place out of 100, I forget about my second team a lot, too so i’ll probably finish higher
Hi! If it’s not to much trouble can you direct me to a post on Jockey Bart and Furious D. I’m considering buying it. Do you think it’s worth it?
http://tstoaddicts.com/2015/07/07/should-i-spend-donuts-on-jockey-bart-and-furious-d/
Thank you so much. I decided to purchase it and complete my second Tap Ball team.
Hey just bought bart and furious d. Now i got 12 tapballers, and going for donuts, cant wait till act 3 🙂
Why are some people’s stadiums green and brown? It looks so much better and I want it so badly.
It’s the clay option for 50 donuts.
I started the event too late since I was on vacation. I missed the burns outfit. Is there anyway to get it without donuts?
No, only with donuts unfortunately.
Why is “Fit” Milhouse trademarked?
Because it’s a suit he orders online…FIT is the suit, so it’s trademarked. Kinda part of the joke..
Just realized someone already made that suggestion. Oops
I can only collect hats from only 35 neighbors how many am I suppose to collect from.?
Who are the bowlers? I set Ned on an AB-earning task assuming all the characters would be able to fight for the free stuff at Alley McBalls, but Snake and Brockman were the only characters I had free at the moment who were able to bowl. As it’s a 16-hour task I’d just as soon free up the other bowlers and get them started.
There’s a list posted in the comments on the open thread
