Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Here we are…Christmas Eve! Santa’s coming…tonight! Woohoo!

I know many of you will be spending today with your families or doing last minute shopping…so I thought it’d be a perfect time for an unexpected Christmas Eve Open Thread!
Chat about the event, Maggie joining our games, your Christmas plans…or anything else you can think of! Just no Add me requests…those should go here. And as always just keep it PG.
Merry Christmas Eve!
P.S. I’ll be spending the day with my in-laws out of state, so I’ll try to moderate when I can…my apologies for any delays.
P.P.S. If you need help with Act 2 of the event, most of the info can be found on our Christmas 2015 Page. So check that out to see if your question has already been answered 🙂










Act 1 Crafting is back!
Merry Christmas Riley
HAPPY HOLIDAYS to all who are reading this (and even those who are not)! I just had an in-game update now. I’m not sure what it added, maybe snowfall? Perhaps bug fixes? Perhaps a treat that won’t be revealed until tomorrow?
Have a wonderful Maggie filled Christmas everyone, filled with donuts and joy!
Thanks for all of your hard work and dedication running the site.
Just got an update and the act 1 crafting items are back! The ski chalet, the igloo and all are back> Merry Christmas to all and I am glad for those that were wanting the chalet and sign.:)
Merry Christmas to all Addicts – hope you have a wonderful day 🙂
Merry Cristmas everyone! And of course a special yuletide greeting to our intrepid addicts. We love you, one and all 🙂
Bescherung is done (i.e. everyone exchanged and unwrapped presents), the dogs have quieted down again, and I am sneaking in a little tapping time. Can’t wait to get Maggie! After placing the Moonshine Shack the Vengeance Quests started right away, shouldn’t be too long now.
How could it NOT be maggie in act three? Look at the splash page… The game icon… Just saying…
Expatrie-
Because it’s Act 2 and I have Maggie….that’s how not for Act 3…😉
Merry Christmas everyone! I hope you all have a wonderful time with family, friends, or pets; or all three. 🎄🎁
Very Merry Christmas to you all at tsto addicts, and thank you for your hard work, you have saved my sanity many times and I love reading your thoughts and suggestions. X
Right back at you and yours.
It is snowing at my home. (It doesn’t happen every year, and usually not for too long.) White Xmas, I suppose. I home y’all have something to enjoy in the coming days, whether a cool electronic, S.O. or kids, or just my company. (Hi! 🙋)
I’m so jealous…it’s so hot and humid here in New Jersey I had to turn on the ac! I grew up in Western Massachusetts, had a white Christmas every year. It just doesn’t feel as festive without some snow! Have a happy holiday!
Hah, thanks!
I know what you mean! I was kinda sorry last night that we had removed the window AC from my bedroom…awakened hot several times (of couse, some of that is due to non-weather-related hot flashes, but they’re definitely exacerbated by the external warmth). But I’m happy to have the warm weather as long as it lasts, since, due to my current disability, I’m stuck wearing shorts when I go out, regardless of the temperature.
Merry Christmas every one and thank you addicts for all your hard work. It’s very nice to see the Hibberts setting a good example, holding hands and looking happy, rather than shouting at each other. Let’s all do that too this year.
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!🍬☃❄️🦃⛄️🎅🎄🎉🎁 and to all my wonderful neighbours especially!!
We just got back from picking up packages at UPS, took the turkey out to finish thawing, and are going to watch Jurassic World tonight!
I’m making a nice plump turkey, roast potatoes, carrots, squash, corn, stuffing, apple pie and homemade turkey dripping gravey tomorrow. My mouth is already watering 😍
We didn’t have much money to buy anything before Christmas but my other half got a surprise bonus so we’re gonna do some belated Christmas gift buying on boxing day 😊
I hope all is well with everyone and you get to spend time with all your loved ones. And don’t forget to call your parents. This is my first year without my mom and I’d give anything just to hear her voice again.
Happy tapping!! 🎄🎄🎄
Do you mean without without (I’m not sure which one to surround in quotes)? Sorry. I don’t know how that feels yet, but I worry a lot, what with my parents’ health problems (no amount of healthy eating really seems to assuage the tide). I just came back from visiting them. Thank you for sharing. Have you seen Inside Out? I hope we can help you out even just an iota.
Yes she passed in May, simp. She loved Christmas as much as I do so it’s going to be very difficult not to see her or at least talk to her. I try not to dwell on it too much, and definitely don’t want to get into it too much here, if you understand.
And no I have not seen Inside Out, it’s on my list along with Frozen. Yes, yes I’m one of the only people on the planet who hasn’t seen Frozen, lol. Once it’s free on Netflix is when I usually get around to seeing things 😜
Hope you have a Merry Christmas neighbour!!!😊⛄️🎄🎉🎅🎁
Dwell and explore, are those different things? 😯😉
Thanks for sharing more….so. I hope your real life event goes as well as this Maggie getting event may go….*cough*….I also hope. 😉😁
Hey All, Good Yule, Merry Christmas, Solstice Greetings, etc to everyone. I haven’t posted much at all for a long time but want to say thanks to everyone – Addicts crew and all my neighbors for a year of enjoyment and commiseration when the game snafus make it frustrating.
I recall there was a specific thread created, not too long ago, where we could thank neighbors, post compliments on town design, stuff like that. I can’t remember what it’s called and a search didn’t bring it up. Could someone post the link please? Thanks! I’d like to post there.
Thanks to everyone who’s dropped presents in my town, and I promise to reciprocate even if there’s a delay before I do so. I have family playing and it limits how many presents I have free for non-family members on a daily basis.
I like Sandra’s comment about how this community might be an anchor tomorrow for those without family and those who don’t celebrate Christmas. It can be a very lonely day, and this really is a community that shares good vibes.

Just wanted to thank you ladies and wookies for all the work you do! I hope you all enjoy your Holidays and take time for yourselves.
And it is also killing me knowing Maggie is in the game and I have to wait. Every ounce of my being not to use donuts to get her now!
So true! I have been tempted once or twice. Gladly there is but 3 hours left before the Early Release questline is triggered!
Merry Christmas everyone! A BIG THANK YOU to all of my wonderful neighborinos and everyone who runs this blog! I’m really enjoying this event. I LOOOOOVE Christmas and I can’t wait to get Maggie! 😀
This is just FYI for those Android users that need more donuts. I use Google Opinion Rewards to earn Google Play credit. Since 10/20/15, I’ve earned $12 in credit which I then spend on donuts. So, it’s another way to get donuts for those that haven’t tried to use it before. It’s very easy and quick (about only 5 survey questions max). Hope that helps.
Hope everyone has a great holiday and weekend. 😀
I know this is OT, but I don’t know where else to turn! Does anybody know why we can’t find Tapped Out in the play store for android phones?
Do you have a Google account?
Merry Christmas to all from an unusually sunny and warm NY!
To the friendly fellas in this community: Thanks for hearing me out on the righteousness rating issue and giving me the tip to place these training walls behind tall buildings. 🙂 have a merry Christmas you guys!
Merry Christmas Addicts! Thanks for all your hard work, this blog is my go-to when I get stuck or things just aren’t making sense. Alissa, you’ll know what I mean- you’ll be so tired you’ll barely remember your own name! It gets better, promise 😀
Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
And a special Thank You to Alissa, Bunny and Wookiee for this website.
Now Maggies in the game, who does everyone want to see added now? Merry Christmas to all and Ive been playing for a year today!
Gotta enjoy what I don’t even have yet, first. After a while, maybe like another event or two, I’ll worry about desiring new things. 😃
Anyone else noticed the splash screen changed? Less fighty more lovey
Christmas here in Australia 🌲☀️🎅🏻
Where should the old chocolate shop go?
Some people may have intentions,
some may already have it placed 🍫
Looks to me like it doesn’t go with anything
Any thoughts?
🎄 🎁 🍫 🙂
Fortress of Choclitube, Fudge factory, Fireworks Kittens and Puppies factory, etc 😊🍫🍭🍰🍦🎂
I just blew 10 mil to start the 3 day build on the fortress of choclitude because it drips chocolate like the shoppe. Temporarily I have the chocolate shoppe next to the things unnecessary building, but it seems to go well there, so it may become permanent. Also like the look of colored picket fences in front of it.
I have just the one shop…. Maybe I’ll make the chocolate shoppe island.
I put it next to my chocolate factory .that’s the perfect place for it in my town.
I’ve got a theme park style area in my town and have put it there. This is where I put a lot of the event buildings that don’t fit easily into the main town.
No thoughts yet. I’m nearly running out of room again. Better buy those insular squares, hah. Anyways, I agree, it’s a difficult building. Might need it’s own block.
It’s going in my Santa’s Village Area.
Mine is situated next to the Gibgerbread Mansion. Both are surrounded by marshmallow trees, candy canes and the other candies. They’re both situated as a conveniently short walk from The Vast Waistband.
I already had a chocolate themed area. In my Springfield the tar pit is full of fudge and the oil pump is used to collect it so the factory can process it to smear on the doughnuts to be sold in the shop. The hole process is overseen by the corporate offices in the tower. I think I need to quit thinking about this game so much.

LOLOL Love it!
I may have more crap than you but you are a far better designer
Merry Christmas to all from sunny but snowy Utah!
Ooooh! Now I’ve got snow-envy! 😉
LOL, Sorry but I am going to be selfish and keep it all. It’s been years since we have this much snow and it isn’t even close to what we used to get.
Merry Christmas everybody! Happy tapping!
Happy Christmas everyone from the UK – hope everyone has a peaceful holiday and Santa brings all that you desire! Belated congrats on the arrival of your baby
Merry Ho Ho Ho tappers!!!! Can’t wait for tomorrow morning 🎄 Nothing better than watching my kiddos open up presents and spending time with family…..but a 22 lb prime rib and my eggnog cheesecake are a VERY close second 😁
Thanks to the addicts for keeping this going even through the holidays. I’m sure it can be a very thankless job at times but you guys rock! Hope all are well and excited for a new year!
22lb prime rib? Wow! *drool*
🎄 to all my friends, neighbours, tappers, readers, Alissa, Bunny, Wookie, and everyone…..
🎄 Happy non-denominational winter solstice celebrations 🎄
Have a great one and stay safe 🙂
