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…..

Simpsons are back!  An all-new episode airs tonight!  Don’t forget to watch

We’re officially awaiting Halloween…will the update hit this week?  What do you think it will involve?

How’s your designing coming?  What are you doing with your town? Share some photos in the comments below! (If you need a refresher on how to add photos to the comments check out this post) 

And finally, how about the rest of your weekend?  Do anything fun and exciting?

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!

  1. I’m actually happy it’s being delayed. For at least the past week my game has been crashing more and more frequently. I was just on the phone for literally 1 hour 45 minutes before I finally got to talk to a supervisor who was willing to elevate the call to the technical team. Of course with the first guy the first 20 minutes we went over all the things to try doing (clear cache, delete/reinstall, try over WiFi and cell data, playing anonymous, etc) which I had already done. I told the guy that I went to the ea help page and did everything suggested there and I need someone to look at my game files on the server. He tried to tell me that it is impossible for there to be an issue there and the problem was with my phone. After being on hold fhe told me that it would need to

    • Oops. … elevated to the technical team as the problem could be on their end. He put me on hold again and came back and said he needed me to try running the game on another device. Finally I asked to be connected with a supervisor and it only took hi 5 minutes to elevate the call. While I could understand the supervisor the first guy was unintelligible until I asked him to speak slower. He kept talking fast and I had to ask him to slow down every other sentence. Sheesh

  2. I’ve noticed for a while now that every day (maybe?) my XP counter resets to zero and I get some “bonus” donuts. Was this an official change that I missed the announcement for somewhere?

  3. Everyone is asking where is the update. I have a theory. Over the years I have spent a lot of real money on tsto but a year ago I discovered donut farming. Like everyone else there is no need to purchase donuts. If EA make no money they are not going to spend on lavish updates tsto will surely end up fade out. 😥

  4. Well well!
    I’ve been patient I’ve been mean now I’m just numb and hopeful for Halloween.
    Been blood bussing for months. Got 3400+ donuts, no fooling there, I have totally ravaged the yearbook mystery box and raped it for all the buildings and characters and more. Left now are a handful of skins like white witch burns and a nerd or two. Seriously nothing left to buy with my sprinkles hoard.
    All land tiles are used and the Goose realty gives me cash now and no surplus of tiles. Where have the good ol’ days gone. BSOD is my only constant assured. I can get about 6 million a day in game cash just grinding if I go into the game 3-4 times per day… where have all the good times gone?
    Oh please, oh please, oh please ohplease ohplease
    Waiting….waiting.

  5. Good morning Springfield, quick question and this is off subject but how do you guys get little pictures next to your name instead of the tetris looking box?

  6. Rotten eggs might fly towards me, but i will still say it: I miss the old grind events where you craft prizes and have 3-4 currencies at the same time and have a mini game to play… I think the 4 weeks events we have been getting recently are far too easy spand boring.
    I need my griiiiiiiiiiiind,

    • Totally agree, I was one of those that didn’t mind the old crafting format & the 6 week events.
      However in came the complaints & now look where we are !!!

  7. Was tapping through my town this morning clearing character tasks as had when I randomly had some dialogue pop up I missed the first part as I clicked too quickly but the sea captain responded with “that shouldn’t happen the sea batter covers everything” does anyone know what the first bit of dialogue was and what triggered it.

  8. Go Astros! (wanted to see if you would allow!)

  9. Happy Thanksgiving to the fellow Canadian Tappers out there! My turkey is in the oven! Just watching the new Simpson’s episode from Sunday and some treehouse of horrors I recorded. Patiently waiting for what I hope will be our Halloween event on Wednesday! Happy Day friends and happy Tappin!! 🎃🍁

  10. oooh yeah I forgot to mention that this month is InkTober month, so all of you artists out there, how is this going with you guys? I have been doing some doodling and posting it on tweeter (the birdy), if you want to check it out: k00lviruz (zero’s instead of letter O ) drop a like and/or a comment, bash it or whatever.

  11. To tide myself over, I pulled some Halloween decorations/NPCs/buildings from the yearbook. I’m hoping the update is this week. Needless to say, I no longer have all 1600 donuts I had saved up. Ohhh well! I turned the XP collider on until November 7 and I have a 700% bonus so I should be able to recoup that quickly.

  12. IF and that’s a big IF, we get an event, it will be crappy, full of bugs, and full of system crashes… but the dialogue will be on point…

  13. I’m enjoying being able to play and HUGELY looking forward to Halloween 🎃🎃🎃 but I wish I had something to spend my in game money on. I’ve gotten all of Cecils prizes so now the money is just piling up. More from Cecil, please!

  14. Happy Thanksgiving, Canadians 😁

  15. Designing…well, log in, look around, get kicked out, repeat. Haven’t been playing a lot.

    * We didn’t say for the better .

    See ya bye . 👽

  17. Does anyone know if and where and when the latest season of the Simpsons is showing in the UK

    • like, online? or available for download? am sure a good torrent site has it now…

    • I assume sometime within the next 4 months it will start airing season 31 on tv in the UK. I usually get it on Sky One (season 30 episodes aired on this channel a few months ago) but there might be other channels on tv that also air the newer episodes in the UK.

    This is ridiculous. Where is the update?

    • Likely on Tuesday or Wednesday when the update will appear. I has only been 4 days since the last event ended so its not the first time to have a week without an update in the game.

    • I thought I saw it in one of the photos in Patric’s Friday post.

      “Thank you door”,

      Rod and Todd Flanders.

    Like everyone else I’m looking forward to the update and hoping they sort out the continuous crashing. I’ve not bothered since I completed the last event. No point being frustrated without a good reason. If its not running properly by the end of the year then in the words of Wham this will be my LAST CHRISTMAS playing

    Happy Sunday everyone
    May it be a windless, fireless day filled with electric power.

    From California,

    Peace out

  21. Happy tapping all 😁, not good here can’t connect to the game long enough to do any design or collecting, hope an update to resolve this issue happens soon, very frustrating, looking forward to something big 😉😠👹🎅👻😁

  22. Excited for 🎃event and episode 666. Hope it’s epic.
    DIBL?
