So glad there's a land expansion! I'm running out of room!

Got the update just now, seems straightforward enough, although a few things to do at the same time, so will have to balance the tasks. I notice a few premium characters on offer as prizes...at least it looks like Lugash and Crazy Cat Lady are in the prize panel. I wonder if the characters will be given or just skins and if you don't have the characters already you essentially get nothing.

how do you get tickets to upgrade characters? just by winning matches? That's very slow at first

Apparently, it's just the skins. (As the only playable characters I don't have are the ones introduced in Level 54 - and the premium one from Level 53 - I can't verify this.)

Unfortunately they are just skins, if you don't have them as characters they just get locked in your inventory. I won a Barney skin and some stone cutters one for the premium characters I haven't got.

If you have them I've noticed that the KBBL sport show also provides rewards, as does the Fit Millhouse skin.

I am assuming a July 4th mini event is not far off?
No mini-event, but there is stuff for Saturday: the Scandal-Gate Hotel (a reference to the Watergate scandal) and, in their words, America's "forty-fourth most beloved President".

There's also some stuff returning from previous years, like the two previous POTUSes to have been in the game (Lincoln and Washington), the All-American Apu skin and Giuseppe's Workshop.

What's this whole throw a ball thing and the community prizes? I placed a ball in someone else's Springfield so what do I do now? Do I have to wait for it to be sent back or something?

If you log in before 9am tomorrow morning, you get 13 free doughnuts - in honour of the original colonies (how nice of them to give me a birthday present ).

It seems like you just put them in another town.

I used my donuts to buy some flags, which I had been hoping for!

This event is pretty good to be honest, it has added a new feature to the game which I do wonder if they will keep going afterwards?

I can't wait to unlock Springy!

I quite like this event too. The community prize targets seem quite high but then they were in past community prize events and they were always met so these probably will be too.

Something I noticed - the target for 10 doughnuts was 110 million. It went down to 3 million overnight, and said doughnuts were rewarded today. The target for the next prize (1000 Amateur Bucks)? 110 million.

For those who have had their 10 free donuts disappear, don't worry. EA help has advised this will be sorted by an update.

Slightly off topic, but one of the TSTO fan sites is reporting that a Futurama game might be in the works. Not sure if legit, but I've subscribed to the mailing list for updates.

I think the 10 doughnuts went to everyone, regardless of whether they disappeared or not (I don't think mine did and I got them again).

They've reduced the targets needed for the Community Prizes - again - and we're about to hit (if we haven't already done so) the target for 1000 Amateur Bucks.

That many ABs gets you 25 balls. So I have just one to say - DUCK!

Some good stuff, but almost all premium. Very annoying.
