Real money and luck seem to be the only way to get donuts.
I don't blame them as it is the only income they get from this pretty huge free game, so it seems fair that people who want to progress faster or build more than the standard linear offerings should have the option to spend money. I don't want to spend real money on something if I don't have to so I have nothing premium other than what I've won in mystery boxes. A feature allowing you to gift friends donuts, money or buildings would be good I think. |

A gifting feature would probably result in millions of feeder accounts and put more pressure on their servers for less income.
I don't like the freemium model, it'll probably be the thing that kills the game for me. They say there are no paywalls in this game, well not being able to get long term recurring show characters without paying money comes pretty damn close imo. I appreciate they've put quite a bit of effort into the game, but let's be honest, it's a pretty shallow game, a simple levelling system combined with the Simpsons universe to create a shllow front end designed to get people to spend money on microtransactions. |

How far away is it from your landing zone?
what do you mean landing zone? its near enough to the squidport entrance liek the arch so it seems that people tap the arch cos it has the handshake sign but i guess i have shops etc all over the entrance and boards due to lack of space. do i need to leave more space?on the donuts thing i have only ever paid for one scratchcard and won 6 on it. that being said i have 180 atm from levelling up, halloween gave me lots from tapping ghosts and got some in mystery boxes during that even too. i turn into a bit of a donut fiend though - i love finding them

Hmmm, that's interesting, I've never heard of that trick before.
Well I could definitely do with a bunch of tiles so if anyone wants to help (sliced-bread-no2 for those that don't have me added), feel free. I don't really have the money to focus on the Squidport right now, so this could be handy ![]() ![]() I've had quite a few tiles with the glitch just remember to leave at least one handshake up. Also works with the farm and the Channel 6 building. |

What you reckon they might skip Valentine and do Easter as they didn't do that last year

So you can effectively buy Mindy for £2500? That doesn't sound right, but if it is, great!
Won 30 donuts in the Mystery Box today. I was so happy

Wheel of Friendship
http://i.imgur.com/Vv2Fjwh.png Edit: It also looks like they added an unfriend feature as well as playing status either currently playing or last played time. There is also a new facebook linking feature. |
