I caught all 40, then nothing. It did say "part 1", so I'm assuming there will be more. I just have to wait till everyone is free again.

W. T. F. !!!!!! (Chris, it does start automatically. I still have 8hrs on my final task.)

+1

I think it's actually more of an Apple issue. Coming out with newer operating systems, and forcing them on to older phones. In this case the iPhone 4, which cannot handle all of the features of the newer upgrades to iOS.

Chris had a similar problem a few pages back. Something to do with restoring his phone from iCloud.

YAY! I got another fence too!! What are the odds??

Logged on this morning, and there's some kind of St. Patricks day update, with tasks and everything. First task was send people to the pub. Also tapping the leprechaun 10x. Didn't seem to d/l anything though. Anyone find anything different?

Along those lines…. This neighbor tapping for friendship points is a permanent thing. (At least all indications from the various sites have it as that) Apparently this will be dropped, but will resume, if special seasonal tasks happen along the way. (Whacking day, halloween, Christmas etc…) To prevent sheer madness (and/or monotony) with the game, I've resorted to only tapping 30 neighbors per day. That equates to 570 FP/day. If you tap more, great - but the FP adds up much slower after that, and adds to the monotony of the game. Here's the breakdown: (If you have 100 friends, I'm down to about 65) First 10 friends = 30 actions @ 10 FP each = 300 FP Next 10 friends = 30 actions @ 5 FP each = 150 FP Next 10 friends = 30 actions @ 4 FP each = 120 FP Next 10 friends = 30 actions @ 2 FP each = 60 FP Next 60 friends = 180 actions @ 1 FP each = 180 FP So with max friends playing, you're collecting 810 FP per day. It's surely a time based thing on my part.Tapping 30 friends takes roughly 15 minutes, not a big deal. But not tapping on all friends (some of which haven't played/updated in months! - More cleaning out to still be done.), I'm only missing out on about 100 FP (out of a possible 135 FP, with 65 friends) per day. But, it keeps my sessions shorter and my interest doesn't wane. I figure that the graffiti-ing of friends isn't that big of a deal. It only adds 4 FP total, every time they visit their town IF, people have tapped those bldgs. Collecting 570 FP a day is plenty enough for me. I should get Homer's car sometime Sunday night or Monday. Then I'll get Stampy (5000 FP) about 9-10 days after that. And… I don't feel I'll get too burned out in the meantime. Especially since this (appears to be) is a permanent addition to the game. Food for thought. Also, is anyone beside me still collecting tickets from KL?? I'm up to about 253,000+ tickets.

The update is just an episode tie-in for this Sunday. Very small tasks and small rewards. I won't spoil it for anyone, but it's not a true (level) type of update. Continue tapping.

Absolutely right! Work on those heart jobs and whoever you can still visit! Fortunately, it's not forcing the update, but you have to be careful while visiting others, so you don't get to the update (launches iTunes) screen, so you'll have to relaunch TS:TO. So far, it seems to be safe to do it that way. Go Girl GO!!

Thanks for the heads-up! Did some looking around. Just like the individual prizes before, you can use donuts to speed up the actions. But why? It looks as if the award goals are reasonable. It's been reported as: Prize 1 - Olmec Head- 1000FP Prize 2 - The Singing Sirloin - 2000FP Prize 3 - Snowball II -1000FP Prize 4 - Homer's Car - 2000FP Prize 5 - Stampy - 5000FP The are also a couple of peeps who have tasks when the Singing Sirloin is built, and Stampy has 2 tasks!! Also, when you graffiti someone else's town, they get FP (Friend Points) when they clean it. (Drawback - it does affect yours/their righteousness rating). Fortunately, the people who haven't completed the wheel can still collect hearts, just not from those who have updated. That's all I know as of now. EDIT TO ADD: You do NOT have to tap on the FP to collect them (like you did the hearts), just tap and move to the next town. Much faster, and quits being too boring.

Thanks for the TR Chuck! Seems like it was soooooo long ago! I think the rabbit ride gave us all a look at things to come!! I can't wait for more pics. I look so much younger!!

That is so sad.

Happy Birthday.

Once or twice. I figure that even though you did set the tasks, your device didn't sync with the servers before you shut down. So, when you started up again, the game just picked up where it was last synced, which very may well have been before you started setting the tasks. EA happens.

I'm prett sure I've only got 2 hearts from people tapping on mine. No more, no less. I'll look into it tonight.

Ah. Have you tried all the usual "clearing memory, log out/log in, rebooting, reinstalling" methods?? Other than that, I have no idea. It wouldn't be EA without a glitch somewhere.

Yes. It will remain throughout the valentines day storyline, so you can get more hearts. Also Ned's singing, and Marge/Homer take a romantic stroll. (Marge quest, Homer free)

Quite a few people are doing this. I already had 3-4 of the items placed in my "garden of useless Sh!t", and my first 6 spins all got different items. So as of yesterday, I only needed one more space (and had the fear of never getting it) . After harvesting all my hearts today, I got it on my 2nd spin today.

Well, I completed the wheel of hate this morning. I now have a "Tunnel-of-Love" for KL. Oh joy joy.

A couple of things I found today: For those who bought Brandine - after all of her tasks are completed - you get rewarded with a new task: Birthing children. She can have 3 kids. But, each one is a 90 day task. Abe Lincoln and his log cabin will be available again (150 donuts) Feb 16-18. Also a small update came today - they were reported as being dialog and minor bug fixes. Also, some people are reporting that the tile glitch has been fixed, others say not. Can anyone confirm/deny that?

Just d/l the update to both the phone and iPad. No issues here. First task was 24 hrs, with no issues. Since I have a crapload of donuts, I sped up the roses. The dialogue is hilarious!! Once you harvest the roses, a couple more things become available. I won't spoil it. Some are cool. A couple premium things. For those who had the 12hr task to start with, they did issue a VERY quick fix-it patch, so when you logged in later, it did a very quick auto-update. Anywho, pay attention to the dialogue. I loved it!! Edit to add: looks like all of your neighbors are now in alphabetical order.

It's all part of the "glitch". As long as you HAVEN'T placed 151 (or more) tiles on your Squidport, AND haven't clicked on your last tile, you can store (from what I've read) up to around 300. I do wish I would've known that earlier, but who knows? Either they may fix it, or allow more at some point.

No such luck (yet). It was a small fix for the Duff Party Bus. With the last update, you could only buy one, or couldn't get multiples out of inventory (if you had them). Now you can get them out of inventory or have as many as you want in your SF. I'm beginning to wonder about any kind of Valentines update at all. There's a lot of wishful thinking on the boards, but not much evidence from those people that actually know.

Yes. (Just checked) The next trigger is time, supposedly 8am GMT on Sunday to complete the Super Bowl tasks.
