  1. Well my dream of winning the free rocket just went up in smoke What the hell I just clicked on Patrick Stewart to see you were my progress was for wizard books and pizza slices and accidentally hit the blam icon and the thousand blam I had saved to rebuild the convention center but I couldn’t do yet because I already had my two workers on other projects went towards the goal of unlocking Patrick Stewart and now I’m down to like 12 blam again 😦

    • You can easily build back that total before time expires. Don’t give up just yet.

    • I did the same thing. So now I am grinding Peter on his 1min task and zapping nerds when they pop up. Earned nearly 400 back so far. Been like 3 hours though. But that time would have been spent in brd anyway. Now I just have my eyes open instead of closed. 🙂

  2. When the new celebrity comes, will the previous one disappear, or can you still unlock him?

  4. So I’m curious, and maybe this question has already been answered in which case I’m sorry – but I’m working my big ol’ Trekkie butt off to unlock Patrick Stewart and I’m wondering if he will be a permanent character when I unlock him or if he’ll be leaving with the event? And whatever the answer, is that the same case for all of the celebs in the event? I didn’t get to unlock Rupert, 😦 I was way confused about that event…. So I’m trying really hard in this one and I want to know if it’s worth my time!! Ok enough rambling 😀

    • You needed 15 red nerds to complete quest ‘Quahog Comic-Con Pt.5’. I got a lot more reds than expected while collecting those 15 nerds. However, once I got the 15 nerds that were required, they popped up a lot less frequent. So I think it was only for that quest.

  7. I’m an android player so im in the dark except for what I read on here. But just wanted to say I have falconer Peter, and carter. I only need 2 maracas for pb&j Brian. And for stewie I only need 12 more blueprints, and 7 more of the green things. And of course pb&j Brian is needed to do his task first. Sorry if this is the wrong place to brag, but I’m pretty happy with how close I am. 😊

  8. Wow, haven’t checked the site all day! I’m really sorry! Haha.

    My love for Alissa has grown. Thanks for the advice on waiting. I bought the 700 clam Blam. Basically, I’m spending 25 bucks on a 45+ day event. That’s fine with me. King Butt freemium was a massive nightmare, sleepless nights etc. I’ll pay to support this amazing event while at the same time securing George.

    YAY!!
    Btw, how is everyone doing? 🙂

  9. Wondering if there will be a BLAM calendar coming out? Al la Stonecutters calendar, and advice on whether the exorbitant costs of some items need be paid?
    I’m reticent to paying such high values in TQFS especially for a short term BLAM earner. I’ve played TQFS since day one but only been on TSTO since March but the perceived value (mostly based on longevity and the causation effect of items) is far greater with TSTO.

  11. I feel like I could do this game so much better if I were ADHD. I can’t keep track of who to send where to do what task to get all these characters that needs to be unlocked. I’m trying to unlock Stewie, Carter, Patrick Stewart, and Captain Hammered. I have about 10 or 11 task in my complete. I’m so overwhelmed. Am I the only one? 😦

    • Lol…no, it can happen. Try not to do everything at once. Target a character or two. Send all that can help to unlock on their tasks. All other “stuff” dropping characters either assign them to a “stuff” task or a “blam” task (if they have one). There is no wrong answer. It’s your game and you can play it however you like. With “blam” the shortest tasks collect the most over the long run. Hope this helped a little. 😉

    I went to go open the convention when I earned 1000 blam…..I couldn’t because my 2 workers were busy. I turned game off for 5 minutes to tend to some household duty. When I came back, my blam depleted tp 115. Didn’t buy anything with it as I was saving to get that rocket ship. I emailed tinyco so hopefully I can get some blam refunded.

    Has anyone mentioned this glitch yet?

  14. I’m mad the bar is 700 clams! I bought the truck cause I didn’t win King Butt last time, and I had bought the smallest idol producing statue, so I bought the 400 clam truck, and now there’s a 700 clam bar! I’m just afraid of ending this event like the Full Moon, sans cool character. But 700 clams? That’s $25 right there! And with all the other cool buildings for clams, it just seems pricey.
    I am trying to unlock Stewie as I want his costume, and if I don’t unlock before the event is over, I know I’ll miss out. So I’m working on Peter’s costume, unlocking Stewie, collecting blam, and repairing the buildings…this update is a doozy! (Carter’s gonna have to wait for now…)

    • assuming you have the Clamterprise and the Q open, your nerd spawns should cover you. Don’t let it get you down and just learn the lesson to leave everything to the last possible moment. Don’t use anything that has more than one use (like gems or blam) until you have everything else assembled. Bonnie is being incredibly lazy in my game so its going to be a long time till I have the pizzas to unlock patrick. So I just let my blam accumulate cause you just never know whats gonna pop up next.

  37. Mutant Stewie, eh? Guess I should work on unlocking Stewie then. I put him off in order to focus on earning Blam! but I guess I should get back to it. Still got a LOT to do to unlock him. But even still, to get the rocket, all I need is the Convention Center, so I should be able to focus on bothover the weekend. The 20-hour tasks for blueprints are gonna be the worst, though…

    Also, 700 Clams for one item!? That’s a bit excessive.

    Like

    • Apple/iOS still accounts for about 40% of the market vs. Androids 52%

      However, when it comes to what platform makes more money for developers, it’s not even close. Apple users outspend Android users by a ton.

      So when Apple as a company rewards developers for doing “exclusive” or “early access” content, and those same developers are already making more money on that platform, it’s not hard to understand why sometimes Android development or releases lag behind.

      I’m not saying anything is “right” or “wrong”, I’m not saying one platform is better than another, I’m simply explaining why things are happening the way they are.

      Just remember, at the end of the day, your gaming is TinyCo’s business. It’s how they pay their bills and feed their families. I’m again not justifying their actions or choices (I personally think they are a bit greedy or unreasonable on their pricing), I am just asking the community to remember that things are rarely as simple as they appear on the surface.

      In a perfect world, TinyCo would release on both platforms at the same time, with the same content, and be (at least) adequately compensated by both companies (and/or their userbases) for their work.
