Apparently not. Most of the items appear with a little padlock next to them. I have been upgrading when I can but it seems to be an incredibly slow process.

You'll get there, just keep tapping

once you get martini drops it gets faster

It does have lower targets (I got the first three prizes within 24 hours of this Act starting) - the glam rock guy has a total of just 71,600 tokens, and there's plenty of ways of getting them.

Just got the last prize of act 2 already! it's gone so quick..... now onto those delicious bonus donuts!

Question my ambition if you will but I do love a nice easy event !!!! I got the Spruce Moose though so even if the game crashes and I don't get in till the event is over I'm happy. I really don't like crafting events though if I'm honest...

I love Homer's card game and the building.

And also for a huge amount of gold chips for when Act 3 starts on Thursday (which is what I'm aiming for, now that I've got "the glam rock guy").

Have you unlocked act 3 crafting too? I've been using my chips to get the stuff to unlock it.

Me too. I hope we can still play the games after the event has finished. A bit like the scratcher game with a timer to play every X amount of hours.

Not liking this crafting upgrading, so annoying. Still got 5 more levels to get to level 3, taken so long!

Yup - and I'm now collecting what I need to build the Spruce Moose. (I don't think there's anything else I want.)

That would be great, with donuts as the top prize.

It's all I wanted from this event. The casino episode is my favourite Simpsons episode. The minute I got it I put on my best Burns impression and said "Hop. In." To myself

I'm finding this pretty boring if I'm honest.

Agreed. But then again I always seem to get bored towards the end of events. I find the act 3 prizes really underwhelming, maybe that's why.

Gabbo was the only one I really wanted (probably same as most of us) so it's just a question of tapping away until I get him (not too long to go now).

I think I've done a first here - collecting all the prizes before finishing the questline.

I guess it serves me right for hoarding the golden chips (I had nearly 400 when this Act started).

I finally got the Spruce Moose and built a small runway for it too, even though it goes nowhere.

I'd quite like Gabo too, but if I unlock recluse Burns, which I'll probably do tomorrow, I'll be happy.

I like how there is been no need to visit neighbors to achieve getting prizes. I really can't spend 30 mintues tapping neighbors atm

Yeah, with a full neighbour list it can take some time to visit everyone, especially as you only earn event rewards on the first 90 taps or whatever it is.

I try to regularly tap all the key regular players, and after that start from beginning of friend list one day, middle the next and end of the list the next day. Tends to keep everyone in rotation that way.

i cant get on now - it keeps asking me to update then cannot connect to server

I'm constantly in awe of your Springfield

A Desert update is coming apparently, which is great I could do with more cacti.

Unfortunately, they only earn cash and XP now (well, when you download the event removal update, anyway).
