Addicts Open Thread

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

It’s that time of the week again, time for the Addicts Weekly Open Thread!  So, let’s get the conversation going!  Oh and remember…just because this is posted here today doesn’t mean you can’t comment on it all week long.  This open thread will still be open for comments long after today is over!

Here’s where you can talk about anything you want to talk about…TSTO Related, Simpson’s Related or ANYTHING.  Just no Add me requests…those should go here.  We’ll give you a few suggestions (like most Sunday’s you can talk about the current episode of the Simpsons) but for the most part you’re free to talk about ANYTHING your little Tapping Fingers desire…just keep it PG.

So, here is your Open Thread…..

The Simpsons are back this week with an all-new episode!  What do you think will happen in this week’s episode?

ICYMI…Addicts Live was all new yesterday.  We talked Act 3, the next event in TSTO, got an update from nuclear Safi and had a big announcement!  Check it out here if you missed the fun yesterday!  And if you just want to know what the announcement is I’ve posted it at the bottom of the Open Thread…

We’re about a week and a half away from the end of The Springfield Jobs.  How are you doing with Act 3?  Ready for it all to be over?  What do you think is next in TSTO?

How about the rest of your weekend?  Anything fun and exciting going on? Enjoying your Spring?

So chat about the Simpsons, TSTO, Update fun, or anything else you can think of! (Just no politics, it never ends well)  Can’t wait to chat with you all, you know we love hearing from you!

Have Fun!  And happy Sunday!

And now a message from the Tiny Addict…

  1. Where do I find the character groups?

  2. Congratulations, Alissa!

  3. Hi,

    Wonder if I’m the only one getting frustrated. New building are costing upward of 175 donuts. I can’t but new land because there are no tokens available. But I’m sitting on $220 Million in cash and and wondering “What tthe heck for?” Why buy a new building for $15 worth of donuts that generates $300 if TSTO $s that you can’t spend?

    • just convert your cash into donuts, either buy rat trap trucks or KEM farm. Turn the XP collider on before buying.

      • I want EA to make it possible to buy land with donuts, if they won’t do it with cash. At this rate, it’ll take forever to get all the new land, and in the meantime I’m going to have to nuke some old area just to make the new one I want to make with the cool new buildings EA provided. I like all my old areas, so this is irritating.

  4. I didn’t buy Jack the Ripper and Scotland Yard. Do you think we’ll see him for sale for a limited time at the end of the event.

  5. Congratulations Alissa! What exciting news!

  6. Congrats Alissa!

  13. I’ve crafted a bunch of buildings from this event for future use (terraced houses, canal-side houses) and don’t seem them anywhere in my inventory. Where should I look? I’ve tried Buildings, Decorations, Town Building… I just don’t see them.

    • They are categorised as decorations because they don’t have a build time or generate income. They should appear in the decorations section after the unique decorations since you can get more than one of each type of houses and canals. If you don’t see them in the decorations section then try looking in the main inventory instead by opening the inventory (don’t tap any icons) and keep scrolling left until you see them appear.

      • Sadly, I have been through ALL the Decorations and ALL of the Inventory, without finding them. Weird. I just hope they show up in there after the event is complete, and I don’t just lose all the ones I’ve made but stored.

        • I’ve had this happen before with crafted items (Rigellian fence pieces, at Christmas) that were never placed before storing. Now I always place anything crafted (or purchased, for that matter) before I store them. Haven’t ever “misplaced” anything since.

          • Good suggestion. I did a hard stop of the game, and the iPad, and the buildings are now showing in the Inventory. From now on, I’ll use your idea with crafted items!

  14. Congrats Alissa (and hubby). I was watching “Bart vs Australia” to check the snake statue and saw “Shiva” running the world. There are almost always many good, tiny, clever bits in every episode!

  15. I dont know what to design next

  16. Congratulations!!! Super exciting for you!!!

  17. Congrats Alissa! My wife and I got 4 and one on the way as well.

    Unfortunately my town was hit work the rollback glitch last night. I was a kem farmer, but for now I don’t feel like it. Plus I’m about to head out on a deployment, so I’m going to spend that extra time with the family instead.

  18. Congratulations Alissa!
    We stopped after two so that we were never out numbered! One for each arm if you’re alone, or one for each of you when you’re together.
    However that doesn’t fill a team…….😏😉

    • 🤔 I feel like I’ve heard that before.. maybe 2 years ago? 😂😂

      • Think it was last year…..you did a “ask us anything” post and then you answered on a TSTO LIVE episode….good memory on you girl 😁

        • lol i’ve answered it a lot. Everyone’s always afraid I’m going to leave. Nearly 5 years and I’m still here…may write less posts daily after the Littlest Addict comes (working nickname) but I’ll still be here. 🙂

    Congratulations Alissa on your great news. I wish you all good health for the future.
    I’m expecting to get the final prize Tuesday having for the first time used some donuts to speed things up ( I desperately wanted that extra plot of land for a move around and my donut count was just over 4500).
    I’ve finally decided that the whole of my Springfield Heights area has become my storage area for all those decorations etc that give us the bonuses plus my KEM farm and house farm. If my donut count ever hits 20,000 I will put it all in storage lol.
    Now looking forward to the mini event… let’s hope it will be as entertaining as this event has been.

  23. Congratulations to you and your family Alissa.
    So if player number 2 is due September 1st does this mean you are planning on getting a full team!
    If you do another guess the sex, weight, eye colour thing I am going to choose the opposite of what I think as last time I got just about everything wrong.
    Best wishes and thanks for all you do.
