OK. So…yes…it has been mentioned several times that I was “off the hook” in regards to having to do a calendar. However, with all of the INSANE grousing about the event being different, it seems best to lay it all out for you in a familiar format… so you can CHILLAX!!
Let’s cover a couple of basic things…again.
1. You WILL get a ton of land tiles over the course of this event.
2. You are going to get a TON of FREE Stuff…including a couple of characters and some pretty cool decorations.
3. You are going to be able to GET IT ALL… waaaaay easier than before, as well as have the chance to purchase a ton of items with game cash…IF YOU FOLLOW THIS CALENDAR AND DO THIS….
DISCLAIMER…. THERE ARE SOME SERIOUS SPOILERS ON HERE…Kinda.
As John from EA was really late in getting us info, and a certain Italian hacker tends to leak all of the info early anyway…I don’t feel bad in revealing a few details early, if for no other reason, than to make it clear that YOU GET A TON OF STUFF FOR FREE.
But the trade-off is…I am not going to do a Gregorian Calendar for a handful of 7 day mini-events. Instead, I am going to break this down for the entire event.
Again… IF YOU DON’T WANT SPOILERS ON SOME OF THE PRIZES…STOP READING NOW…
Who are we kidding? Everyone wants spoilers. That’s why you come to this site…to figure stuff out! Early.
HERE IS THE BREAKDOWN… CLICK THE GRAPHIC TO ENLARGE
Interspersed with these prizes…are at least 12 LAND TILES…TWELVE (and maybe 13).
That’s right… EA is actually being generous with land tiles that you can place anywhere you want. So…chillax. Find a place…build it out as you earn the prizes.
THE MATH BEHIND THE CALENDAR….
This is pretty simple stuff. For each Act, you have to earn 1300 of whatever the act currency is, in 7 days. Except for the final act, where you have to earn 1500.
But anyway you slice it, if you have 10 characters in play every act, and you can keep cycling them every 4 hours, at least 4 times a day…you are going to hit the mark super easily. Even WITHOUT the Premium characters. 6 for every regular character every 4 hours… times 10 is 60 every 4 hours…times 4 is 240 a day minimum. Got it? EAsy!!!
AND…if you don’t quite finish an act, you can keep going, even after the next act starts. While the Simpson Family is involved with every “story,” there is a rotating cast of characters involved with each one, so you are never “out of time” until the final bell rings on January 2nd. You can only start each Story/Act on each Wednesday…but, again…you have plenty of time to hit your targets.
Have FUN!!! CHILLAX!! This on is easy…and has some great stories to come.
