Hey Addicts, Caption This!

Sometimes TSTO gives us humorous little moments when we capture our characters doing rather strange things.  These posts are all about those strange and funny moments! Once a week we’ll be posting a Caption This!
moment where we want you, the Addicts readers, to put on your writing caps and come up with what you think is happening in the screenshot. Post your captions in the comments below. We can’t wait to see how creative and funny you guys can be!

The Tapping Glitch- New Bonuses in TSTO

Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!

Dropping in with quick TSTO Tip for you. Just a few days ago Wookiee gave you all a nice little detailed post about how you can now tap on your neighbor’s Squidport Tiles and help them earn extra tiles, but did you know this also works on Cletus’s Farm, Channel 6 & the Open Air Stage?

Yes, that’s right Tappers you can follow the same tapping method Wookiee discussed for Squidport tiles with Cletus’s Farm, Channel 6 AND the Open Air Stage! This is a great way to earn extra cash and XP, and will help you reach bonus levels faster (more free donuts)!

Here are my suggestions to maximize earnings:
-For Open Air Stage have Hans Moleman do his 24hr task and let it be so neighbors can tap away to earn you bonus Cash and XP

-For Channel 6 (if you have him) setup the Arnie Pye 2 day News Report and let it be so neighbors can tap away. (if you don’t have Arnie Pye, go with the 24hr task)

-For Cletus’s Farm obviously the best one is Corn, but alas Corn takes 90 days (and who has time to wait!) However, if you’ve already got Corn almost ready in your town (or Moonshine, or Triffids if not) let it be so your neighbors can tap away for you. Imagine the earning potential on corn!

-For Squidport make the tile as normal and again let it be so neighbors can tap away for you!

Remember when you go back into your Springfield be careful to tap each handshake carefully.  And don’t clear them away until you’re happy with the number of handshakes over your task.

To help our favorite Addicts maximize the earning potential of the “Tapping Glitch” we’ve setup a board at the Addicts Forums where you can add your origin ID and let neighbors know when you have items ready to tap! You can also use the shout box on the Addicts Forums main page or leave a comment in the comment section below.

You can check our the TSTO Addicts Forums, and chat with other Addicts, anytime at tstoaddicts.boards.net!

Hope this little tapping tip helps!

Should I Spend Donuts on the Open Air Stage?

Wondering if you should add the Open Air Stage to your Springfield?   Well before you hit that confirm button, lets break down the Pros and Cons of adding the stage to your Springfield.

TSTO Open Air Stage
Building Name: Open Air Stage
Donut Price: 160 Donuts
Dimensions: 8×8
Payout: Varies
Return on Investment: Varies
Much like Channel 6 and Cletus’s Farm the Open Air Stage does not regularly generate an income. Instead characters are required to put on a show in order to earn money. Here’s the break out of the tasks on Open Air Stage:

Task Time Character Investment Reward
Lisa’s Sax Solo 60m Lisa $25 $145/30XP
Krusty Standup 2hr Krusty $40 $240/ 45XP
The Be Sharps 3hr Homer/Skinner
Apu/Barney
$175 $1,055/245XP
Willie on the Pipes 4hr Willie $60 $350/ 80XP
The Skinner Sisters 10hr Skinner/Agnes $230 $1,385/ 300XP
Sideshow Opera 16hr Sideshow Mel $165 $990/ 220XP
Man Being Hit By
Football: The Musical
24hr Moleman $220 $1,320/ 250XP

Final: If you’re going to regularly use the building to complete the tasks it’s not a bad overall investment. However, if you’re tight on donuts you may want to save them for now and use them towards a building that earns an income without having to pull a character off of another task.
