Hey there Hoppereenos!
Bouncing by with a bunch of Updates to Random Characters all over the game. It looks like EA is cleaning house and trying to give us a lot more synced times to use for our Characters.

There you have it. A whole lot of New Character Tasks for just a handful of all that are available in the game. Some of the Payouts are a bit odd, I assume intentional or EA may tweak them later. We will just have to wait and see.
Did you notice these New Tasks? Have you already started using them? Any favorites so far? Any missed? Let us know.

Love the interrogate a rat. Hated when one hit 4 hr task and Smithers 1 hr task now
All the jobs were added because the character shared a job or EA wanted some buildings to be useful.But why does Marge have a new 8 hour task
MAGGIE CONFIRMED
Homer Dog is in the Town Census “waiting for something to do,” but when I “go to” him there are no tasks for him to do. Is he suppose to have tasks?
Right now there are no tasks for the new dog. Hopefully the census suggests he will in the future.
That would be good. Otherwise this weird dog isn’t too appealing on my streets. (He’s not yellow enough….)
Awww man so many characters that i dont have mostly event and some premiums :7
Disappointed nearly all of them are indoors, and none are in Sequel Stop [or Bad Dream house] it’s cool Database will animate the Knowledgeum but surely they could put one skin from one kid or geek there. “Why won’t someone from EA please think of the Sequel Stop?!?” *wrings hands in anguish
Mr Teeny 4 hour task grayed out … do I need more than one Krusty Burger? I also have the bug, not all characters are sent on jobs with the Job Manager. Perhaps Teeny is also part of the bug. Any news from EA on an update? Thanks
You shouldn’t need more than 1. Could just be a glitch on it, or something else preventing it. I’d contact EA on that.
Everyone has that bug, it’s outlined in the post about the Unemployment building:
http://tstoaddicts.com/2015/09/24/unemployment-job-manager-is-here-ie-a-send-all-characters-on-a-task-button/
An update for what? The next event? We won’t see anything from EA until it hits.
Thanks … but I have friends with IOS and all characters are sent on tasks from unemployment building, so not everyone has that bug. The update I was hoping for is the fix for Android. Sorry for the confusion.
Great updates to the game though I can only send about half my characters right now this way. Love having new tasks for so many too. Still getting used to the mass collection from IRS leveling … I keep tap tap tapping. Hehe.
Hmmm… I hadn’t thing about whether this could be an iOS vs. Android thing… I did find that it sent all of my characters on task when I used my iPad yesterday morning, but that was also first thing in the morning, so, when it didn’t work later in the day, I thought timing had simmering to do with it. But now I’m realizing that, during the day I was using my Kindle Fire HD (original version), which runs on a “flavor” of Android, so maybe that’s why!
Now that it’s weekend, I can use my iPad all day, so I’ll see what happens when I do my next unemployment office job sending thing!
I also have that glitch with Mr Teeny’s 4 hour task. Guessing it will be fixed with the next update.
I built another Krusty Burger and the task appeared. I think the internal counter is off by one. I dare not sell the extra KB … there are actually several in Springfield anyway.
How do you get KBBL studios? I can’t find it anywhere or any info on it…… Is it one where you have to be a certain level or?
Friendship prize

Ooooooooh! Thanks 🙂
What I love is that before, many of the characters had tasks that were tied to Homer, meaning you couldn’t do all of them at once. This frees up everybody to do something during the day.
I only noticed Mr teeny today. And that made me think… Hmmm bet tstoaddicts.com had the scoop as usual. Because I do rely on you all to help my addiction. 😉 I love seeing all these new tasks to the characters I have. Can finally sync more up as I do use 4 and 8 hour tasks a lot too
Why can’t more people have 16hr tasks? Its basically like sending them on a full day task but you don’t have to wait until the same time the next day to collect..
Homer also has a 2 hour task to “Surf the Net” – is that new or have I just never noticed that before???
Never noticed. It’s been around for a couple of months.
Also I think marges new 8 hour option is a sign that we’ll definitely be seeing Maggie at some point in the (hopefully near) future, since all joint tasks were given alternatives and walk Maggie will be a joint task once she a full character of her own.
Makes sense to me. Maybe Halloween? Maybe Christmas?
Expatrie-
This is my favorite thing that has ever happened in this game I don’t even care about the send all that nuch but I love the uniformity that all characters now have the basic task lengths 🙂
Psyched that Teeny and Stampy finally have more tasks. Glad to have more options.
The only disappointment that I think is lacking, was from the Stonecutters event, and that is only 3 characters (Homer, Krusty, & Chief Wiggum) have an outdoor task to sing the Stonecutters Song. I was hoping I’d be able to send more of them to do so since it is such a long table.
actually there’s 4 characters who can sing the Stonecutter’s song, Number 51 (the martian) is the fourth.
I agree with you, and it would be nice to have more options for the Stonecutters table and the Thanksgiving table (Lisa & Flanders). I sometimes push them together. I am glad Teeny has something better than buying cigarettes to do when Krusty is busy. I wish Mrs Hibbert had a positive outdoor job. She is such a bad role model! It is the Simpsons, after all. 😉
I have my wall constructed so that when all the other Stonecutters spill out of the lodge (which isn’t much lately as they’re all recycling and working in SH) they have to stop by the table for a minute. I also have it in close proximity to the open air stage and rear entrance to Beer & Brawl where Lurleen is BBQ’ing, throw in Giuseppe’s fireworks and it’s a real party.
I’m jazzed about all the new tasks, these are gonna make life easier. I think I actually yelled out loud yea when I saw these show up yesterday! *insert happy dance here*
But now for my total “Debbie Downer” part…..what good is it giving Stampy new tasks if not one of them is a lone visual one. I want to be able to see the elephant now and again (but by himself). Pfft! I might as well just leave him on the 24 hour task then.
I know! And some of the new tasks sound very visual…I was sure I was gonna get to SEE Stampy spraying water and was disappointed when he ducked into the radio station to do it. But I’m thinking that perhaps, in future updates, they’ll make some of these tasks visible. It would be to much to expect that they could get that done for all of the characters at once, so I’m not surprised that they didn’t. But I hope that they will in the future!
Oooh I hope you are right! That would make sense that EA would set this up for release in future. Here is to hoping!! 🙂
Especially that water spraying job! Why can’t that be outdoors?
So excited for this update! More jobs for Teeny and Stampy! Updated jobs for those characters with incomplete lists (4 hour tasks for Mindy and Ralph, 1 hour task for Shauna, etc). And updated jobs for those who have tasks tied to others (finally Smithers has a 1 hour tasks that is no longer dependent on Mr. Burns – but will he be able to handle the independence lol?)
Yay! Loving this update! They needed to do this a long time ago. It probably was done to make the characters work better with the new feature at the unemployment office, but now I can bring the monkey and the rabbit back out of storage without them driving me up the wall with their short task lists. And I won’t have so must trouble syncing up tasks with other characters while I’m waiting for something to finish either.
I can’t tell you how happy some of these make me, especially being able to send Bernice on a 4-hour task without Marge (whom I usually need to have speeding up triffids, when she’s not making glass or pills…busy lady!) and giving Mr. Teeny a 4-hour task, too!
Yay! Now I can send Hugs and Sherrie on 8 hour tasks at the same time since they aren’t both dependant on homer!
I have Cletus farm in a 24hr task and it won’t be done until later today but I was just curious if they added the hour task back for growing crops? I was disappointed when they changed it to 30min and was hoping they would eventually add another crop for the hour task.
I can’t check, mine’s growing corn. But it wasn’t included in the list of updated tasks.
No it’s all the same times .
I wish Mr Teeny could ride his unicycle, a 4 hr. or 8 hr. job .🐒
See ya bye . 🌞 💎 .
Number 1 new has a 1 hour job “quick drink at stone cutter lodge”
I’m pretty sure that’s not new.
Expatrie-
Seems like we got a shiny new job manager at the uneployment office to go with all the new jobs. We can FINALLY send all available characters on jobs of the same time lenght at once. BEST.UPDATE.EVER
http://tstoaddicts.com/2015/09/24/unemployment-job-manager-is-here-ie-a-send-all-characters-on-a-task-button/
And now we know why all characters got those standalone 1-4-8-12-24 jobs… Unemlpoyment office is useful at last 🙂
