Note from Alissa…Bunny’s under the weather right now. So she graciously put together most of this post and the Calendar. It told her to just send it to me and I’d take care of finishing this post up for her. So this is a collection from her and I…so my apologies if I’m not as witty as Bunny…
Act 3 hit our devices this morning and now everyone wants…the Calendar!
So short, simple and to the point…here you go my friends…
IT’S CALENDAR TIME!!
A few quick FYI’s
- For the Basic Rundown of Act Three of Wild Wild West, go HERE
- For “ADD ME” Requests, go HERE
- For the Main Questline, go HERE
- For everything else… GO TO THE EVENT PAGE HERE!
EVENT CALENDAR STARTING 5/18/16, DAY 2 OF ACT 3
As per usual, I will be starting the Calendar one day AFTER the Act releases so you can factor in time you will need to send Characters on tasks, get Buildings, and fully launch the New Act. I will also be stopping it the night BEFORE the Act ends, as it will give you enough time to focus on all the other last minute stuff.
Now you have a basic daily breakdown for 12 days based off of approximately 2365 
TNT a day.
Again, do not panic. Remember that it is slow going at first so you may “appear” and feel like you are behind, but as you progress through the Questlines and Event you will start to see that you are getting more and more and more each day. Just go at a pace that fits you, but remember the more you play the more you will get. These are totals you want to reach by the end of each day if possible.
ACT THREE PRIZES
Here’s the rundown of the prizes available during Act 3 that you can win by just playing the game and collecting 
TNT.
Frontier Water Tower- 1,190
100 Gold Coins- 1,910
Mortician Carriage and Frontier Cemetery- 3,980
200 Six Shooters- 6,050
Blacksmith and Part & Parcel Post- 9.470
100 Gold Coins- 14,780
Longshot Skinner- 19,280
400 Hats- 23,420
Carl’s Dad Caverns- 28,370
BONUS ROUND?
Once again there are NO Bonus Donuts as a result of earning all of the prizes. You may get a popup telling you to collect more TNT but this popup does not (at least at the time of this post) lead to more donuts.
The ONLY bonus donuts available in Act 3 are the ones you can unlock via day 14 at the General Store.
So please, please, please I beg of you…don’t come yelling at me that EA broke your game and took away your bonuts. There are no bonuts to be awarded from collecting TNT after you’ve earned all of the prizes.
There you have it. A Calendar of TNT for all of you extreme Addicts out there.
What do you think of it so far? Where are YOU in the game? How are your totals coming along? Let us know.
~Bunny
Thanks again for the calendar. I have one of my neighbours who has over 19,000 TNT. Is that even remotely possible at this stage?
Donuts. This really that’s the only way
But can donuts overcome the daily cap?
Yes.
It’s not a cap on how much TNT you can earn each day. Only a cap on how much you can earn via trade ins. If it was a cap on how much TNT you could earn then you wouldn’t earn TNT from Bandits…or tasks at the Plaza once the cap was reached.
Oh, right. I guess I knew that, just wasn’t thinking about it. Donuts, there’s nothing they can’t do!
I have got the Longshot Skinner skin even though I have unlocked him yet. No outside quests for him though. Has anyone else have this happen to them?
Yup it’s a glitch that happens because they have Longshot skinner do the task with Gummy Joe. Very strange…
Yes me too but Skinner did get a quest and all his tasks unlocked for me.
Don’t get me wrong I like this event and the prizes are awesome but feel so annoyed that there’s nothing to spend all our spare resources on. I’m gonna have thousands left over at the end and nothing to use them on. What’s the incentive of grinding away anymore?! This event just seems too easy. Some days I play only two or three times, I’ve barely got any premium characters and I’m still going to have loads left over at the end. Why can’t they throw in a few bonuts even if they make it harder so we don’t get as many but at least there will be some reward! Or give us the option to craft something even if it were just fences and some plants it’s better then nothing!!
Wholeheartedly agree with all of your points it’s exactly how I feel.
On another note since act 3 started I seem to be getting barely any prospectors to send to my neighbours so apologizes all round.
Yeah, I really wish they had at least made cactus patches craftable or given some as a daily prize instead of fences. Charging 15 donuts for something that doesn’t even give a bonus is insane.
I really wish I could get cactus patches and hot springs without springs without it costing so many donuts. Great idea!
YAAAAAAAAAY! Calendar ☆☆☆☆☆
Get well soon Bunny ♡hugs♡
When I started my game this morning Skinner had his Longshot Skinner outfit on.. Complete with tasks (two of them not available). Anyone else who has this glitch?
Yup it’s a glitch that happens because they have Longshot skinner do the task with Gummy Joe. Very strange…
U r awesome, Bunny. Thank you for getting us the calendar so quickly. I couldn’t do these events so smoothly without you. Mary Jo
I’ve never had enough resources to hit the cap at the general store. It hasn’t mattered, I’ve been able to trade in the 4/5 lots to get each daily prize and all the major prizes. But can’t seem to keep going til I hit the cap. Just call me Hopalong Cassidy cos in obviously a bit slow 😬
@Alissa Just realized something, if you are that concerned about being as “witty” as Bunny, um, did you try her Bunny Juice? lol Ok, that doesn’t sound right, but that’s what she calls it lol
yea…no.
First it’s Bunny Water..not juice. Bunny Juice sounds gross lol
Second, no I’m stone cold sober….unless Starbucks counts 😉
I knew I had something wrong with the term, couldn’t think of how it was worded lol.
all i could think about was juice squeeze from a bunny….not a pleasant image lol
Poor thumper….
In Acts 1 and 2 I just did the minimum trades per day to get the daily items, then I waited until the last day and did enough to get the prize track complete so that I didn’t “waste” resources. That left me with a big stockpile now, and with this being the final Act I’m wondering if I should do it like that again or just trade in to get the prizes earlier. It seems like once the prize track is complete then (aside from the daily prizes) the resources have no more value.
With past crafting events I liked waiting because I could figure out exactly what I wanted to craft, but it seems like it probably makes no difference either way with this one. Anybody have any other thoughts on it?
I’m boycotting the rest of this event. Since the start I’ve played every day, several times a day, exhausted every resource including my neighbours, and I’ve lagged at least two days behind the calendar in each act. I know these games want people to pay, but I’ve been playing TSTO for a couple years now and they’ve built a reputation as a game that rewards frequent players by not missing out on event prizes.
Not so this time, it seems.
I’m not giving up entirely, just gonna skip the next couple weeks because it’s annoying.
I did the same. I’ll have almost all the prizes by the end of the day. So there was basically no reward for playing continuously. Whatever, EA.
My strategy has been only turn in top-level packages and choosing to craft items that will allow me to do so. But yeah, pretty much have to keep up on it a few times a day and make sure all the bandits are tapped to get all of the prizes. For some reason this event has seemed easy to achieve than some previous ones.
I am currently ahead of the calendar. I do wish they would give you the option to go back to a previous act to get any prizes you missed. Maybe once all prizes are done add an option in the General Store to trade TNT for Clues. I hatend finishing act 2 and 3 early and not have finished week 1.
Hey, great idea. It would retain the act breaks (which slows us down from getting all the prizes) but would be fairer to those who start mid-event or who are vacationing, allowing them to catch up if they play really hard. If this event had bonuts it could even be a choice you make to get bonuts or win act 1/2 prizes.
Was the Superhero Event like that? Or maybe I’m mistaken, but I do recall one of the events in the past year or two where subsequent acts did not shut you out of the previous set of Earnables/Craftables. It just meant that you may have to ramp up game play to get all the items of the last act, but you didn’t feel cheated if you started the event late.
I’m just glad that EA has not re-introduced the so-called “random” prize wheel, again!
XD
…Back to the this post’s topic:
I had roughly based each day’s quota at 2200 TNT bundles starting today [Tuesday]. It was a round number I could use and easily calculate using the General Store trade list. Good to know that I wasn’t too far off in trying to simplify how many items to trade in order to stay on track.
As for the lack of post prize line BONUTS, I find that I’m feeling more relaxed with this event as I don’t feel rushed to get the last prize in order to grab as many BONUTS as possible in the limited time.
🙂
EA won’t reintroduce the wHeELL of (mis)Fortune again. They’ve even made fun of it by giving a broken wheel of fortune during the Christmas event of 2014.

That is the silver lining to not having bonuts. I don’t feel rushed, but sadly, not super rushed about getting the prizes, either. I’m still competing against my neighbors, but other than that no rush.
+Uncle Yes, it was the Superhero/Super Hero event.
Feel butter soon Bunny! (Yes, yes, I meant butter) I should be able to get the caverns, because if you think about it, the amount of TNT you must collect is a little over 2,300, and last act, it was (I think) a little more than 2,500 badges. Just another reason that you should just relax.

Do you want her to melt? I think that is her boyfriend’s job. 😛
No, I just want to make sure her toast has plenty of butter.
😉
I hope that Carl’s Dad Caverns has a “Spelunking For Donuts” option, and you can get characters to get supplies like the Monorail. 🍩
That was also what I was thinking.
So sorry to hear that Bunny isn’t well 🙁 thanks so much for the hard work on the calendar (to both bunny and alissa), we tappers are certainly great full for it. Sending love and hugs for a speedy recovery!
As usual I’m ahead of the calendar, so should be easy breezy. Just a suggestion Bunny, but if you don’t already have one, I recommend getting a trampoline. Jump high enough, and you just may end up OVER the weather 😀
She’ll be feeling over the moon the way that Bunny bounces.

’bout time! We’re more than 14 hours into this event.
(Boy are both my tongue and cheek sore)
The total lack of bonus donuts this event is really putting a damper on my enthusiasm.
I know there are other ways to earn donuts, and actually I have a nice stockpile of donuts. I don’t really need bonus donuts, it’s just that they always make an event super enjoyable to me. Even when prizes haven’t been all that interesting to me, the donuts made it fun. This event is just falling flat, especially this act. I don’t care about the prize track much, and I won’t work on it especially hard because I won’t even get donuts. Bleh.
Good points. I think the reason you want them, even though you have a stockpile, is that they’re always useful, no matter what event, and they’re familiar. Like you say, if you’re not interested in this event, then at least you have bonuts to look forward to. That’s how I see it, too. If they don’t want us to gain too many bonuts, then just set the goals higher. Do you think getting even three hard-won bonuts would be worth it?
True, they are definitely always useful, and I’m sure I’ll spend them eventually.
I don’t know about just three donuts. Technically, I’ve already gotten six donuts from the general store this event, but I’m not super stoked on that. I think the attraction of bonus round style donuts is that there isn’t really a set limit on how many I can get. The first event I played, I earned at least 120 bonuts. Other events I’ve played yielded more than 200 bonuts. Some events, I only got about 30, but it always felt like I had the chance to get lots of donuts if I had the time. This event, I know that I will get no more than nine. That’s boring.
I don’t really understand why they would want to severely limit bonuts, anyway. Free donuts just got me hooked enough to start buying them. Even hundreds of free donuts wasn’t enough to really satisfy the craving once I got a few premiums in my town. I wasn’t happy until I had the majority of characters and some neat decorations. It’s good business to hook people in with free samples.
Anybody else get Longshot Skinner after completing The Gold, the Dad, and the Gummy Part 3..or maybe it was after completing the Gummy Joe and Skinner task from Part 4. Not really sure which it is, I just noticed it.
Me too, just noticed
Didn’t make the final prize in Act 1 or 2, gave up about 7000 short on Act 2, that should give me a good head start to finish this one. When I have missed prizes previously it has annoyed me, but these prizes don’t excite me particularly so I don’t feel to bad this time.
Question: Should I be trading in my things for the biggest amount of TNT or the smallest? Or does it matter. I got all act 1 prizes, played the same way through act 2 and couldn’t get the last prize. Just want to make sure I get all act 3 prizes. Thank for any help!
I always go with the largest
Get well Bunny!
Had something weird happen after collecting gold coins. Skinner appeared in his Longshot skin, and when I tapped on him, it showed the name and all of the skin-related tasks, but showed his normal skin. I switched to his firefighter skin and then back…and I no longer had the Longshot skin. Guessing a glitch, doesn’t seem to have affected anything.
Just saw the same thing happen in my game too, thought I was seeing things, glad it wasn’t just me 🙂
Oh gosh! I am so far behind already in Act 3! Now I’m never going to get all the prizes! Why is this happening to me?! Oh…wait. Today’s only the first day? I should be fine then. Nevermind. 🙂
I felt far behind all my neighbors…until I realized that I have to turn in resources at the General Store. Now I’m right up there with them. 🙂
I did same thing in beginning, couldn’t figure out why I was so behind….. So you aren’t the only one 😉
There’s no weather to be under in the wild west. She must have got it from that Family Guy game.
Is that witty enough for you?
full of wit
Nit wit? lol
you said it..not me 😉
Well, I never.
Oh, because of the nits that control my wit, right? Nitatouille style. 😛
Errr…you do know what a nit is, right? It’s the larval stage of insects like head lice. Makes the whole effect of calling someone a “nit picker” even worse! Sheesh.
and now we’ve reached a new level of me going…GRRROOSSSSSSS 😉
Actually no, I did not know that, you learn something new every day I guess.
Better than a half wit.
Thanks for the calendar Bunissa. Or is it Alunny? 🙂
I like Alunny lol
Sounds like you are “shipping” the two of them lol Can’t believe I just used that term…
Yeah, I felt that way before, but if you think of “shipping” as in freighter ships, then it’s all good. I mean, two freighter ships “shipping”. 😉
As usual not exactly what I was going for, but hey, that works too 😀 lol
I was going for Balissa or Alissunny but I like Alunny!
Sending loads of healing energy your way Bunny – hope you feel better v v soon!
There a good reason why there a no bonuts rounds. It costed EA too much real money. I, for one, scored 120 bonuts from the casino event 🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩🍩
Bunny, sorry you are having such a hard time. Sending you love, hugs and fairy wishes to get well soon.
Alissa, if she is unable to read this please tell her I’m thinking about her! Btw you did a great job finishing for her, no need for apologies from either of you, I just want her to recover and come back to us.
It ain’t my first rodeo 😉
These replies don’t sound exactly on point…. Ride ’em cowgirl? lol
Alissaaaaa!!!!
EA broke my game and is not giving me bonuts!!!
Oh nevermind, just read the third last paragraph.
Thanks for the calendar both of you.
Again, due to my strategy, I’m well ahead at 4500 TNT, should be at 4800-5000 by midnight. I understand why they don’t want to dish out bonuts. Myself and many of my fellow addicts have scored loads of free bonuts in past events, so understandable that they’d limit it to 3 bonuts per Act. After all, if people don’t spend money buying donuts, there will never be a level 60 or another event. However, as an alternative, I would have liked to see some crafting available. I will most likely have about 100,000 extra resources by the time the event ends. It would have been nice to turn it in for decor items. Oh well, still the best game out there!
those jerks!
I hope you feel better Bunny! Thanks to both you and Alissa for getting this out to us!
