ernierocker Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 I got an error the first time I tried this morning, but got in on the second try. Sounds like they are having server issues, SHOCKER! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkTums Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 ^It's ridiculous. This is one of the biggest downtime's they've had and they haven't even bothered to post or release a statement or anything. Dumb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guy T. Koepp Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 There was like a 15 minute window yesterday morning when it was down. But aside from that. It has been working great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jray21 Posted July 14, 2013 Share Posted July 14, 2013 I haven't checked my town in about 3 days, but it was working for me today. I've honestly have lost a lot of fun out of the game. I never send people on tasks, and there's no reason to check in more than once every day and 12 hours to get a boardwalk piece. I really really hope this next update brings the game back to how it was before. Less premium items, more interaction with other towns (except not as much tapping as in the snakes update), and just being overall more fun and exciting. I used to play it all the time, and would check in numerous times a day. Now, I never check in, and honestly don't really follow it at all anymore. This last update absolutely killed the game for me.

SharkTums Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 ^Cool, downloading now! ^^Ugh! It gets worse than this 36 hour BS!!!!???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COASTER FREAK 11 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 So I downloaded the update, played the game for about 10 minutes, and then it reset. When it came back up, It told me to build the gym, but I never did the quest for it, lol (or maybe I did and didn't realize it?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJJman Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 ^^Ugh! It gets worse than this 36 hour BS!!!!???? It gets much worse!! Here's the chart from TSTO: First 4 tiles are free. Tile 5 takes 1 hour $250 6 takes 2 hours $450 7 takes 4 hours $850 8 takes 8 hours $1700 9 takes 12 hours $2500 10 takes 16 hours $3350 11 - 15 take 24 hours $5000 (5 days) 16 - 30 take 36 hours $7,500 (22.5 days) 31 - 60 take 48 hours $10,000 (60 days) 61 - 90 take 60 hours $12,500 (75 days) 91 - 120 take 72 hours $15,000 (90 days) 121 - 151 take 84 hours $17,500 (108.5 days) It'll take 362 days to get them all. I am also at the 48hr tile build as of yesterday. Luckily(?) I have all the buildings, so the over the next couple of weeks, I'll have enough tiles to properly space them out and start decorating them properly. By then a level 32, and Krustyland should appear. It seems like the future does promise many things, many of which it appears, will be running concurrently, to keep people busy. There is also talk of new items for "Treehouse of Horrors". New is good. Content is good. Bored is really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJJman Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 So I downloaded the update, played the game for about 10 minutes, and then it reset. When it came back up, It told me to build the gym, but I never did the quest for it, lol (or maybe I did and didn't realize it?) Did you have Quimby free to start the dialog? After the dialog, you start building McBain's mansion. At the same time the gym becomes available. It looks like when you're finished with McBain's mansion, that will open up the film set. (Or some other quest thereafter). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ernierocker Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I think I just started on Tile #30, so I have the 48 hour wait to look forward to next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperShawn Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Jeff How on earth do you have 2000+ Doughnuts? Is that from being a slumlord? Update downloaded and Bane's Mansion and the Gym are both under construction. Going to be a really quick update to get through... still holding out for Krustyland.

Sir Clinksalot Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Finally getting to the point where I'm getting most of the normal quests done so I can start actually having some $$ in the bank for all of the new stuff. Thought the picture below was funny during the "make people eat at The Frying Dutchman" challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJJman Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 Jeff How on earth do you have 2000+ Doughnuts? Is that from being a slumlord? I just wiped out (sold) about 60 blue houses, 10 Krusty Burgers, 9 Gulp-N-Blows and 16 Kwik-E-Marts to make room for McBain's place, and the Gym. Eventually, later in this update I'll also combine the film set with Krustyland Studios into one complex. I've only got about 600-700 donuts from being a slumlord. I was just rolling over the XP, either by selling and rebuilding orange houses (5200+ XP/house every 24 hrs) or building/selling weather stations. ($9500 spent/2211 XP instantly/$2375 sell back). Before today's update, I was only about 100,000XP from my next rollover, at 1,320,450XP. I would then just make sure I got the 3 donuts. The rest were 2 iTunes $50 gift cards I got for working for a friend. (1800 donuts) I won't use donuts to speed anything up. I have no room for the boardwalk characters yet, so I haven't got them. (I'm still hoping for the Michael Jackson that I saw the artwork for!!) I'm still mad about tapping too fast (HAPPY they fixed that!!!!) and getting that damn blue funzo!! I'll probably get the Ferris wheel, and Planet Hype when I have space, as they look good. I usually only spend donuts on things the give % bonus, or look cool to me. Cop cars are the best value, along with the Springfield sign, Mt. Carlmore (there IS another mountain in the artwork, just don't remember who it is). I bought the Boardwalk Fountains even though they're only 2.75%, but they look cool. Somehow, I missed out on the Black Limo (40 donuts, 2% like the cop car) during the cool Moe update. Kinda miffed about that. Still hoping for a couple big $$$ items to add, as I'm now over 40mil. Loved the escalator to nowhere, but the Popsicle stick tower and the 50 ft. magnifying glass did nothing for me. (Monorail anyone?) Also, some things have started surfacing about Springfield mall, incl. the "Leftorium". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there some kind of strategy for getting Donuts that I'm not aware of? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COASTER FREAK 11 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 He just kept hitting his roll over for the XP and getting donuts super fast because he was a slumloard, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldJJman Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I'm confused ... how do you get Donuts from doing this? Is there some kind of strategy for getting Donuts that I'm not aware of? As Chris forgot to explain: you may have not yet maxed out on levels, currently level 31. So, if you're not at level 31 yet, every time you reach the XP goal, you go up one level, thereby unlocking things associated with that level. If you have maxed out on levels like a lot of us have, when you reach the XP goal you get a dialog box with 3 presents to choose from. The presents have either 1, 2, or 3 donuts in them. Choose one and accept what you get, OR, if you get 1 or 2 donuts, you have the option of buying a different box (@ $50,000) to try and get 3 donuts. If you don't get it, you can still buy the third box for another $50,000 (or $100,000 I forget) to get the 3 donut prize. Then you start at 0 XP again, with the next "rollover" at the previous amount plus 10-20% more. I hope that makes sense. JJSlumlord Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
