I'd been checking all day for the xmas update. quite disappointed!

Looks like it will be next week at the earliest now.

I'm not pushed on SH - i have 18,000,000 in retail and a load of tasks but it takes ages to build up retail value and its all quite annoying

Nope - I can't be arsed either. I also can't remember when I last visited Krustyland on purpose.

I lost interest in SH quite quickly. It's just very time consuming for very little reward. I do some of it when there are no events, but I'm more focussed on the monorail as I want to complete a loop of my city!

I got bored of SH after I got the lake, it just become such a grind and I got bored of having all of the same buildings. I'm back into it a bit more now that it's got some new buildings to get but I'm not really trying.

Hate that we've gotta wait another week for the Christmas update.

Anyone else had problems with the conform-o-meter? I leveled up to level 58 yesterday and went from 5 stars to half a star on the one that deals with keeping criminals and grafitti off the streets. There wasn't even any of either in my town at the time.

Glad the Xmas update is a few days away still. Enjoy the game more when i can do things to my town without having everyone tied up getting event currency etc.

Anyone else on Virgin having problems getting on tonight? Since they messed up Facebook tonight I can't get in!!

Just buy training walls and hide them behind buildings and you'll get the half star back. It happens randomly for me but this always gets it back up.

As Tyyleer says, I don't believe there is a way to get 5 stars in that category without simply repeatedly buying training walls until it gives you 5 stars. It's odd they've done that, but I've had discussions about it before on the official forum & it seems it's the only way.

I seem to have 5 stars and only have 1 training wall, but I'm not sure what I'm doing to get that.

Me too. It will occasionally drop to half a star if I am lax at clearing graffiti but in time it will go back to 5 again.

It's annoying how quickly you run out of space and how the paths don't match up with paths/drives on buildings.

Has anyone got the Mountain Lodge? I'm giving SH my full attention again just to get this building.

Not yet but I'm using the time before Xmas starts to try to get it.

What's the max level this goes up to?

The current highest level is 59, I suspect 60 will be released soon too.

I hope we get the Xmas update tomorrow.

Me too. I'm not sending anyone on long tasks at the mo as you can guarantee it will update and I'll need someone I have sent on a 12 hour task.

I really am expecting it this evening. its usually between 6-8pm I think. I'll be very disappointed if its not today

Personally, I am still enjoying the break - gives me time to focus on monorail tasks for donuts and the new Springfield Heights items.

I really hope the Christmas update is not item crafting based like the last few major events.

I think it will considering not many people have made complaints about it compared to that horrible wheel of chance from before

I think I must be the only one who liked the wheel of chance

I didn't mind it either. I managed to get all the items on it. I think I probably play too much during events though

Lol same here but I'm sure it would have been another story if I hadn't won anything on it

I actually quite liked the wheel. Even though it made me play nonstop and was frustrating at times, in the end I got all the major prizes so I was happy. I'm a bit bored of crafting now, feel like it's been done too much.. Plus the crafting prizes seem to be getting worse and worse. I think after all the backlash they received from the wheel during Easter they won't ever bring it back though

It doesn't even have to be the wheel, anything but crafting

When is this update gonna come! I want to put the xmas lights on but they don't look right without the snow lol
