What are your thoughts on Crook and Ladder? Excited about the prizes? Do you like these type of events? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!










How do yall finish so soon? With donuts or buying the skins? I mean, i play multi, i do the teick to see fires, but i rarely get 1 a hour.. Maxed out friends, always click fires.. hehehe..
Finished this event today
I’ve only been playing for a couple of weeks so I guess I’m maxed out at part 10 as it looks like my Wiggum’s house is a ways off. Hope my fire house doesn’t remain on fire forever.
Donna,
Terry
The task “Hire Ralph as a 911 Operator” should list Homer as a requirement. I read ahead to make sure I had Ralph available, but that take requires Homer for 2 hours.
Do you get a costume puppy outfit for Ralph? I’m currently stuck on the 24 hour task @ fire station. I tend to only like 4 or 8 hour tasks. I want the puppy costume for Ralph. Too cute. 🐶🐶🐶

nvm just saw that it was listed at the bottom of the quest
have noticed during the school on fire part of quest, Lisa has a walk to school slowly job that gives 50 medals. might want to put in post unless its just my game
I have the task for Lisa to get medals too.
I can’t get fireman skinner. Anyone else having that problem.
I can’t get him either. And I’m on part 8
Is it that you can’t get him or can’t use him? I had problem with “Requirements not met” error when trying to get Fireman Skinner to wash the truck… Until I realized the truck was stored in my inventory and not placed in my Springfield.
I love putting out TSTO fires while I am, well…you know.
You can do it one-handed?
Bwahahaha
Never realized how many fires are in my town on a permanent basis ( camp fires, etc) until I started actively looking for fire in this event. 😎
Nix that….changed flickr to 0ne_Wysliss. If you tried searching MO…I am Sososososo Sorry. There are only 1,000,000,000 MO’s on that darn site. I’m technologically inept.
This mini event is just plain awesome! I just got the fire station! One, I have something to do with the ridiculous number of fountains obtained from the casino event. Two, arfter playing daily…seriously…for 3 years I finally joined flickr. Check out pics for MO. Hahahahahaha! This game brings joy to my life…and I’m a happy person, so that’s saying something people! 😎
I love how with every event there’s always at least one question, that no matter HOW many times it gets answered, people continue asking. For this event it’s “WHY DO I ONLY GET LIKE 10 NEIGHBOUR ACTIONS WAAAH” LOL
Btw Alissa, I watched Inside Out the other day, and considering you’re a fellow Disney nut, did that movie have anything to do with naming a certain someone?
lol we get asked that a lot actually (about the movie..but really both things 😉 ). Nope. We had the name picked out, before the movie came out. But I did smile when I saw the movie and heard her name was Riley. We actually have all the little emotion stuff animals for our Riley in her room. Since they are Riley’s emotions 😉
AWWWW so cute!! I figured it probably had nothing to do with the movie but I know someone who named their daughter after Nala so…ya never know lol.
lol true you never know. I’ve just always loved the name riley. And adding the roo to the end of it (cause we call her Riley Roo…) enables me to make up TONS of songs for her lol I’m always singing random songs i made up off the top of my head to her. Easy to rhyme roo with just about anything lol
Like, “…going to the zoo”? 🙂
lol yup…
Did someone mention Burning Man?

Uncanny if you ask me…

Ok, I’ve gotta pull away the curtain and ask: was this a coincidence or did you move the Disco Stu statue into the fire?
Total coincidence.
If you had asked me if I had Popsicle Stick Disco Stu I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t even have remembered that I had him or that he was lurking behind those trees…
😊
That’s so sweet!!
Disco Stu… is burning for you.
I have a friend that goes to BM every year. She says it’s such a blast.
Not getting any medals when tapping matches when visiting neighbours, is there a limit and if so what is the daily limit? Thanks
Limit of 16 per day. http://tstoaddicts.com/2016/04/01/addicts-question-corner-your-burning-fire-questions-answered/
Kinda low from most other events or mini events. They do give your neighborienos medals though … so if you want to help them out then tap on matches anyway.

🚨 🚒 caption that! 🚒 🚨
🙂
I am not getting medals for neighbor fires. Anyone else?
Unable to “Make Firemen Fight the Kwik-E-Mart Fire- 3hrs.” tried putting Moe in storage and back out, doesn’t help… 😞
I had blown up my town prior to the launch and didn’t have Moe out. Now despite putting him in and taking him out, I can’t seem to get Fire Chief Moe or start putting out the Kwik E Mart fire!
Only got 6 or 9 medals from Neighbors … not 90 as expected. Buggy? I guess I’ll save neighbors for later. Hope EA is checking into this. Thanks

I’m not getting medals from visiting neighbors. Anyone else having this problem. Yes, I’m tapping the matches.
http://tstoaddicts.com/2016/04/01/addicts-question-corner-your-burning-fire-questions-answered/
So what are the medals for?
Just something you collect to meet the task goals to unlock the prizes
I’ve burnt down several library’s today, that’s always gone down well in history
I am on level 10
Operating Thetan Level 10? (Scientology joke anyone?)
Keep earning levels. You might miss out on this event, but there are always more to come. Everyone misses out on something when they first start playing. Read these articles to level up faster. http://tstoaddicts.com/guides-to-tsto/new-tappers-guide/
🙂
level 10 xx
Just FYI, about half the time, I’m getting 20 medals from the fires generated in my town. Either that, or they are being placed on top of one another by the coding. But I only have to tap once, so I don’t think it’s multiple fires. It’s random, but it does feel like at least half of the time.
EA is cruel. My daily challenge today was for 3 donuts but it was a task for Moe
Remember – you have 3 days to complete it, if that helps. 🙂
Turns out Moe’s task was only a pair of 60 second ones
This event isn’t auto-starting on my tapped out 🙁 have tried putting Flanders away and bringing him back out but no luck! Can anyone help? None of my characters are currently doing tasks…
What level are you currently on?
10
I believe you have to be Level 20 for this event to start.
Sorry, Alissa’s new post informs me that the requirement is level 15 and having Moe unlocked.
