Addicts Bracket Challenge: Most Desired Building, Pre-Bracket Poll 3

How much longer EA can keep Tapped Out going is up for debate. But what isn’t debatable is that there are plenty of buildings in the rich history of The Simpsons universe still not in our little game. We present to you TSTO Addicts’ Most Desired Building Bracket Battle.

Like last year, we will create a Bracket of 64 beloved buildings we believe would bring a smile to your face, have great tasks, could make for an awesome event, or simply be a nice idea for a new Friends Point prize. Unlike last year though, you will have a huge say in what buildings make the cut.

We have selected 96 buildings organized into eight thematic conferences. We have chosen four to get automatic entries into the Bracket. However, your votes in the polls below will select which four buildings will join them in each conference. Those 64 buildings will then battle each other in six rounds of head-to-head match-ups, that we hope produces the most debate in the comments below.

Over the next two weeks, we’ll have two polls every third day, by which you’ll complete the Bracket. After that, every Friday over summer, we’ll post that week’s match-ups and your votes will determine which buildings advance to the next round, until we’ve crowned “The Most Desired Building” on Friday September 1st.

  1. I would like to see the Pretzel Wagon in the game with (?) “Hmmm looks like Mr Pretzel guy is doing a fine job here.”

  2. I wouldn’t mind ‘Zerz as a future restaurant, even if it’s doomed to fail! 😜

  3. Seattle-er, Museum of Flight! Although I may be a tad biased obviously…

  4. Is there any actual reason to believe EA shouldnt be able to keep this game going?!

  5. Pretzel-Wagon !
    and when we get it we want Marge’s car with the Pretzel Wagon skin
    Listen up EA™
    Marge’s car was in the opening titles for years (is it still? I may not be up to date) how come it’s not in the game ?

    and when we get Marge’s car with the Pretzel Wagon skin,…..we want a whole new investorettes questline now that we have the Triad guy from the end of the episode,

    Who’s with me?

    Nerdy fact no.47
    The fleet-a-pita trucks are the only vehicles that can go in your main town AND in Krustyland

    🇬🇧😁

  6. School for with wicked girls, A&M, planetarium, dog school.
    Dimwillies, General Chang’s, Jazzy, Kentucky fried Panda.
    I’m glad Off ramp Inn made it. Lol

  7. I wonder what the taken out building was. The Springsonian?

  8. I voted for Museum of Television and TV, Springfield A+M, Museum of Flight (a place for the aircrafts) and the Planetarium for Academic/Museum. For the restaurants I voted for Taco Italiano, Jazzy Goodtimes, KFP and the Enchanted Snail. I was once again surprised at most of the buildings I voted for previously did not make the cut and out of curiosity what was the building that got removed from the first list?

    • I made most of my Brackets a few years back, including this one. So when I was revamping it last month for this summer, I had to get rid of around two dozen buildings that are now in the game (such as the Airport, Enriched Learning Center, Cypress Creek home, She-She Lounge etc, etc).

      I thought I had narrowed it down to 96 buildings not in our game anymore. However, I still missed some like Condos at Towne Center at Springfield Glenne last week and now with this event they added the Springsonian Museum.

      My replacement for the Springsonian Museum in this poll would have been Leavelle’s Bodyguard Academy. And last poll Ye Olde Off-Ramp Inn would have been my 4th seed had I got rid of the Condos, and joining the poll would have been The Benny Hilton.

      • Benny Hilton! Aww! Maybe next time..

      • Sorry for replying over a day later. Thanks for replying to my comment and thanks for doing the Bracket Challenges again, I forgot that you made these a while ago, over 20 buildings from this are already in the game? (I wouldn’t blame you for forgetting what buildings are in the game and what are not since there are already hundreds), so it was the Springsonian that got removed and the Bodyguard Academy take its place (It could come with Leavelle himself). 🙂

    • Odd, on the Spinoff Showcase it was “TV and Television.”

      Wonder why they changed it.
