Salutations Silly Simpsons Schedulers,
Springfield Enlightened 2021
Another Event has hit our games, which means it’s time for another calendar. Springfield Enlightened, Act 1 hit our games yesterday.
Here is the math needed to get all the items and corresponding calendar (with both Freemium and Premium expectations).
As Alissa so clearly laid out in the Rundown post, the following characters earn event currency (
):
Homer
Bart
Lisa
Lenny
Carl
Apu
Quimby
Lovejoy
Frink
Advisor Frink
Freemium characters earn 5 event currency () per 4-hour cycle and new Premium characters earn 8 event currency () per 4-hour cycle.
Here are the prizes for Act 1 and the math needed to obtain them:
Siddmartha (Character)
Girl, Enlightened Pt. 1 (requires Lisa and Homer) AND 150
Freemium: 4 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 1 and 35 . 2nd cycle 45 . 3rd cycle 45 . 4th cycle 25 . (Freemium players can get a jump on the next prize by staggering the other 20 .)
Premium (purchased Advisor Frink): 4 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 1 and 43 . 2nd cycle 53 . 3rd cycle 53 . 4th cycle 5 . (Premium players can get a jump on the next prize by staggering the other 48 .)
Golden Buddha (Decoration)
Girl, Enlightened Pt. 2 (requires Lenny and Carl) AND 125
Freemium: 3 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 2 and 35 . 2nd cycle 45 . 3rd cycle 45 .
Premium (purchased Advisor Frink): 3 4-hour cycles

Freemium: 3 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 3 and 45 . 2nd cycle 45 . 3rd cycle 10 . (Freemium players can get a jump on the next prize by staggering the other 35 .)

Freemium: 3 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 4 and 45 . 2nd cycle 45 . 3rd cycle 35 . (Freemium players can get a jump on the next prize by staggering the other 10 .)
Premium (purchased Advisor Frink): 3 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 4 and 53 . 2nd cycle 53 . 3rd cycle 20 . (Premium players can get a jump on the next prize by staggering the other 33 .)
Kathmandu U (Building) + Mystery Box Token
Girl, Enlightened Pt. 5 (requires Advisor Frink ~ if owned) AND 200
Freemium: 5 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 5 and 45 . 2nd cycle 45 . 3rd cycle 45 . 4th cycle 45 . 5th cycle 20 .
Premium (purchased Advisor Frink): 4 4-hour cycles
1st cycle Girl, Enlightened Pt. 5 and 45 . 2nd cycle 53 . 3rd cycle 53 . 4th cycle 53 .
So in order to unlock all 5 prizes, Freemium players must complete 18 4-hour cycles in 9 days. Premium players (with Advisor Frink) must complete 16 4-hour cycles in 9 days. Of course, this can be shorter if you staggered some extra event currency with the final cycle of the first four prizes, as mentioned above.

We’ll have more to say about this event in the next episode of Addicts Live. But, for now, enjoy the Event and have fun! And be sure to sound off in the comments below. You know we love hearing from you.
I would like to see a calendar that covers the entire episode. It provides continuity in where to place buildings and decorations. Especially now, since many of us, the Simpsons Tapped Out Game Players, have limited land. We are not like the game players who just cramp all of their buildings and decorations all together. How ugly!!! Any way, we construct our Simpsons town with a plan of organization. Because we might have to reorganize our town, it really, we really need as full calendar. Hey, thanks for the time and fine work you do.👍🏼👍👍🏽👍🏿👍🏾👍🏾
How about doing a full calendar that covers all the event, just for fun
Per act is the original way we did them on Addicts. Pat did a full event one because he didn’t want to make individuals for each act.
Just for fun, just to give us the full picture, 😁🤗
Your mentioned staggering works for me only when the characters all use different locations for earning event currency. But here they all are in one place and that means I can only collect all at once. Everything that is more than the needed amount just goes down the drain…
Staggering also works if you send all your characters to one location but send them all at different times apart along with sending characters to different locations. For example, if you’re on 135/150 for the first prize, you need 15 currency exactly to unlock the prize. You can send 3 freemium characters (each freemium character earns 5 of the currency so you need 3 freemiums) which earns 15 currency needed to unlock the prize, then set an alarm/reminder/timer for 4 hours and wait 5-10 minutes after sending the 3 freemiums to send the remaining characters to earn the currency (you can also set a second alarm/reminder/timer for the remaining characters).
Exactly!

EA hacked
Well that’s fun. Maybe it’s retaliation for verification codes…
It’s not a hack, it’s a surprise login.
Sorry don’t like the calendar, 3 x 4hr taps a day and I will be finished act 1 by Sunday night. If I used the calendar I would have to hold back. Just the way I play
Most Addicts will be way ahead of the calendar and finish with ample time if they tap 3 times per day. The calendar is more so for those who are only tapping once or twice per day or miss a day or days due to real life. For that minority of readers, it gives them an idea of how far behind they are when they resume playing.
What is this thing you call “real life”?
Spoken like a true Addict!
I updated the app and my event isn’t coming up.. and suggestions? Also all my characters are free
Thanks for the calendar Safi! I’m really enjoying this event! Love the content! Ok I was raised by a Buddhist Grandmother so maybe that has something to do with it! I haven’t been into the last couple events but this one makes up for them to me! 🍩🍩 Happy Day Friends and Happy Tappin!!
Anyone Tapping every 4 hours minimum thrice daily will get through Act 1 (having a Premium Character would help, but it’s not necessary) …. both Calendars are accurate and precise (I could enlarge them and see everything with no problem on a 6.7 screen). 👍🏻
Just wondered why Gautama Buddha isn’t used for this event?
They typically don’t use previous limited-time characters for events like this. (Minis yes but not bigger ones)
