Some of you may have noticed something a little different when you logged into TSTO this afternoon…a special 10th Anniversary celebration!
Here at Addicts we celebrated the 10th Anniversary of TSTO a few months ago, as we went off the original App Store launch day…but today EA’s celebrating the 10th anniversary of the re-released of TSTO to the app store. This makes sense, because originally it was only in the store for a hot minute. BUT…let’s all be thrilled EA remembered and they’re celebrating it!
Anyway…when you log into your game you’ll get some fun and an even neater decoration. Let’s break it down…

Here’s the results of the Springfield Choppers Event Grade. Note that a few people voted after we recorded Addicts Live, so the % on this graph is a little different than what we talked about on the show…

The Addicts Crew is back again with an all-new, episode of Addicts Live!

In our games, the snow is falling and TSTO is calling yoo hoo! It’s the most wonderful time of the year Tappers, Christmas in TSTO! This year is no exception with the 2020 Clash of Creeds Event!
Act 4 of this Event ushered in two new premium characters. One to help with the event, and the other as part of a Gil “deal”.
So let’s take a look at Yahweh and Andre’s questlines. Here’s the full dialogue for The Mid-Life Tribulation and Heaven Forbidden…
In our games, the snow is falling and TSTO is calling yoo hoo! It’s the most wonderful time of the year Tappers, Christmas in TSTO! And this year EA is insulting everyone with a true Sacrilegious Christmas…nothing says 2020 quite like this! (thank goodness 2020 is over now!) And nothing says the holidays like buying stuff!
As we all know, that limited-time label can tempt us to grab everything in sight because it’ll be gone soon. But don’t sweat it! That’s where we come in to tell you what’s worth those donuts and what you might want to hold off on.
Wondering if you should add the Jewish Walk of Fame & Yahweh to your Springfield? Well before you hit that confirm button let’s break down the pros and cons of adding this Jewish combo to your town…
First of all, thank you Safi for getting a basic event rundown post up for me! Really appreciate the help! Guys, like I said yesterday…work is CRAZY for me right now. Trying to balance it all has been….interesting. So grateful to have Safi back me up!
Anywho, who had mini-event release on Friday for the win? It is 2020. The year where nothing seems to make sense. And it’s peek 2020 that EA would release a mini-event on a Friday afternoon. Especially one that, according to the game files, was supposed to be released on Wednesday. That’s 2020 for you…
So to get started on this mini-event you’ll need to download the update in the app store. This update will remove the Game of Games 2 Splash Screen from your game, and bring in the Summer Games 2020 files.
Basement, eh… 🤔
Once you’ve downloaded the newest update you should see the dialogue launch right up for this mini-event. (Quimby kicks off the dialogue)
Note: You will need to be, at least, on Level 15 for this to start.
What’s included with this event? Let’s take a look….
Note: You’ll need Mayor Quimby free for an hour to kick this off
Holyfreakinshirt! What day is it anyway? I know I’ve complained about this before, during this “interesting new version of normal.” But dammit…nothing is normal right now…except for TSTO. It is sooooooo normal, that it is making me insane.
There is little doubt that we are stuck in a rut…and the people who are “coming back to the game,” after layoffs of year, or even two (especially those who have been gone less than two years) have GOT to notice. If you are paying attention, you will notice that almost nothing has changed in format in months, and months and months. This isn’t a new observation…but, it really is like seeing an “Under Construction” sign on a new building…leaving for a year or two, and coming back to see that only the sign has been repainted.
And I’ve had enough. I’m going to get answers. I’m going to call “EA Bob” and find out what the hell is going on, (besides very little.)
Here’s my list of things I’m going to ask, when I grab him between pizza runs on his side hustle, from his clearly part-time job at EA. Continue reading →
Just a friendly reminder that TOMORROW morning, May 5th, Act 4 of the Simpsons Wrestling Event will be starting. The official start time is 10am ET.
The Acts 1-3 questlines won’t be going anywhere, so if you haven’t finished the prizes you’ll have a chance to complete it even after Act 4 starts.
Also, here’s some inside info to help you prepare for Act 4 to start…
During Act 4 we’ll reach the exciting conclusion of the Wrestling Event, and see if Bart can save Springfield! Of course, you’ll have to follow along with the dialogue to find out what happens, but the same characters used for all the Act currency tasks should be used for the Act 4 currency tasks, including a brand new one for Act 4! So we’re looking at: Homer
Marge
Bart
Lisa
Grampa
Burns
Smithers
Moe
Prof. Werner von Brawn (Premium)
Rumbleina (Premium)
Beefy Bishop (Premium)
New Premium Character for Act 4
You’ll also need Burns and Dr. Bonebreak free for the initial questline objective…
There will also be one new premium character combo introduced during Act 4, and that character will be able to help with the currency earning for Act 4. (150 donuts will be needed if you’d like to purchase the combo)
And that’s it my friends! Be prepared for Act 4 to start up tomorrow morning!
