Just to add here, I recieved my plastic's recycling plant. I had to get Lisa to open monorail window (30's) place building (30's) to build. Now I'm recycling plastic which takes 2 hours.

I too am seeing my game freezing recently.
The game makers don't like to leave too much time for us to finish off one bit before they throw in another event. I mean I was trying to build up my Heights but now a lot of the characters are needed to do the micro tasks for the monorail. Having 30 second long tasks is quit annoying. You have to have the game open all day which drains battery and wastes data. If they set them to take an hour or so and upped the payout it'd make more sense. |

Hopefully we'll get a gap before next event or a change to the event mechanics. |

We have 25'ish days left of this event, so mid September. I am guessing the next event will be Halloween, which is always a big one for Tapped Out. Started on October 7th last year so we might get a few weeks break... ugh!
.... Then it will be the Christmas event again! Also usually a biggie. |

Has anybody else been randomly given one of the Spuckler kids if they didn't have all three, regardless of whether they had Brandine doing the "Birth Another Spuckler" task?

My main gripe is that with so much going on I never know when another character might be needed so i have a lot of them wandering about doing nothing in case I need them. I see level 56 is now a goal too! At the same time as Heights and Monorail! I do hope monorail parts are up for purchase and not Donuts after this event ends as It'll get very annoying if I don't manage to complete at least some kind of loop. |

Good news - Act 2 for the monorail is now live.
Bad news - If you want the top prize, you have to collect nearly 133,000 rolls of tape by 9am on September 4th (I think), whilst still having a cap on tape from the Project Board.

I don't think it will be that hard. I finished stage 1 a few days before the end and I only get chance to play a few times a day at the moment. Already have the station and first lot of track pieces just from a couple plays today.

I seemed to play non stop since the start of this monorail event (but I did miss the first day) yet I got nowhere near getting Ray Patterson. I will hopefully get the Hippy at least!

Just had the glass plant. It's slow going for these track pieces.

I'm just hoping I get enough track pieces to have them connect up or they let us make them afterwards.

I just hope Act Three doesn't have a target for the top prize of more than 150,000. |

Why do EA feel the need to introduce a new level during an event?
Because EA have done just that - admittedly, the new characters have been requested for a long time (the Old Jewish Guy and Belle, the owner of the Maison Derriere). |

Did you see the bit where it said something like "could this mean the end of level updates" (can't remember the exact wording) I wonder if they are going to drop levels in favour of some other progression - or just endless events! |

I know. It's very annoying especially when the characters the update needs are also ones that we are using for the event.

I have a new underpass diner building and then The Simpson family must dine out. Yes the same family, doing other tasks....sigh

I see with today's update that the message for the railyard unlock gives us some new info:
"The Rail Yard will let you permanently build monorail track pieces and allow you to earn free donuts every week" I guess the track pieces will be extortionately priced, assuming they are for cash given that the building will earn donuts anyway . It does however look like I will need a major town re-design though. |

I've got them all doing their various recycling tasks - which means that I've ground to a halt in the Shapes (the one that gave you the Muscular Marge skin) and Declan Desmond questlines (both due to a reliance on Homer). At this rate, I'll pass Level 56 before I finish the DD questline - and what did you get at Level 56? The Daredevil Bart skin. Which will immediately grind to a halt due to him recycling. *rolls eyes and deeply sighs*
![]() ![]() Btw never ever try to rearrange town like I just have. It's looks awful now and I can't be bothered.
