BLAM! Calendar iOS

Hey there Clammers. Figured you all would be wanting this information sooner or later, so here you go… the Ultimate Quahog Comic-Con & the Fabulous Four Blam! Calendar for players on iOS.

2014-07-24 09.17.22

Now before you see the numbers and panic…grab a towel. There is no need to panic. You have over 45 days to collect the Blam! needed to unlock all the prizes. Also don’t forget that in the past events, TinyCo launched changes each week to the event. Changes like doubling and tripling the prize collections. There is still plenty of time to play and enjoy the game. The Blam! Calendar will be here to help guide you to where you want to be by certain days or weeks of the event to keep on target for 100,000 Blam!

(Click on the image to see a larger size.)

I started the collection the day after launch and stopped it a day before the end, to play it on the safe side as I usual do. Better to be ahead of the game. Lol. So there you go. Something to help you along and keep you on track. Do you like the Blam! Calendar? Helpful? Let us know if you have any questions on it. We are always happy to answer questions.

Til Next Time…

    Hiya guys n gals. Has there been a time set for the android comic-con start? I want to be sure im ready as soon as it starts

  2. maybe this is a stupid question, but if a person has both IOS and Android devices, when the Android version is released and they get a special bonus, couldn’t someone using a IOS device just log in on a Android device, get the free item or whatever it is, then go back to the IOS version, keeping that item in there game??

  3. It’s the 30th… I only have 6,000 and according to your calendar I should/could earn more…. This is clearly done by playing hourly 😛

    I’ve made sure NOT to spend actual money this time round.

  5. How am I suppose to get to 100k? Already 7 days into the event and I’m only at 5k when the calendar says im suppose to be at 13k.

    • Remember, the calendar is just dividing 100,000 Blam by 45 Days to come up with 2222 per day. It will start slowly, but as you add more characters, your Blame will grow. Also, past experience tells us, TinyCo will add more ways to make more Blam. But we all need to remember events are how TinyCo makes most of their money (to stay in business). Although players can spend real money on clams during the normal quest line periods (if they want to), it is not a requirement to unlock districts or needed new characters. Only an investment of time is needed. So during events, there is no guarantee that everyone will get every prize. It’s set up so those choosing to play strictly free can and will collect a lot of fun cool stuff. And those that choose to invest some moola will be appropriately rewarded by getting even more cool stuff. And ultimately, TinyCo can pay their bills, make a profit and continue to invest money and manpower back into the game. I see it as a win,win,win.

    • I have 2 workers and I always keep one free for whatever pops up, whenever it pops up.
      I would wait until after Friday like Cybersillu suggests, but I would add to wait until you have enough blam to build the fab four center twice.

      that way if something comes up 30 seconds after you start building it you won’t be kicking yourself and screaming ‘HURRY UP!’ at your phone.
      well probably, I have no idea how much any new structures will cost but double the current most expensive seems like a good guideline.

  15. I’m at 7300. But my main concern right now is unlocking Takinawa. I’ve got 3/4 parts done, but I’m still waiting on Dr. Hartman to drop eyeballs so I can unlock Anime Peter. Ugh, I loathe epic drops. I’ve put Hartman solely to work on that for the past five days, and still not one eyeball. And, of course, I’m not going to utilize Peter because he won’t earn any Blam with this task. Therefore, Takinawa, and eventually Stewie, are left sitting in the cold. Dang epic… Also, I was half-nodding off earlier doing the Bird with Peter, and I accidentally clicked on polish Peter. There goes 6 hours.

Just seems pointless maxing them when they only need to be level 10 to unlock all their tasks. Would be a nice little addition, especially for the long time players with many characters maxed. Only have Stewie to unlock now, just got pb ‘n’ j Brian this morning.

  23. Very awesome calendar Bunny!

    Just for a reference point for people freaking out about being behind on the calendar:

    I am at 8,200 BLAM and I’ve only purchased the sommelier (the second it was available). I’ve done two days of hourly tapping (16 hours) and the other days, I’ve checked in every 4 hours, every 4 hours (even at night).

    I have not surfed the bird a single time because I feel it is unnecessary and a very potent catalyst for being ‘burnt out’.

    There is NO chance that I will miss out on GT, but my goal is to refrain from any more clam spending (unless mini-events like Rupert pull me in).

    Keep tapping and only worry about your next prize (these prizes are SO COOL)!!! Never worry about other posts, or the calendar! 🙂 Posts can be misleading, whether it be exaggeration OR they have multiple BLAM trucks/bars (which is PERFECTLY OK!).

    This event is absolutely amazing and you are potentially ruining it for yourself, fretting over little things like BLAM.

    I have awful video game OCD (with games I commit to), and a compulsion for completion. I am not even SLIGHTLY worried, and that’s saying a LOT!

    As the event goes on, your smile will grow and if you have a little faith in Tinyco, your mind will be at ease. They are a fantastic company who listens and adapts. They have even made right on mistakes they have made. Businesses (and the entire planet) revolve around money, but Tinyco is proving they have more to offer in this corrupted, cash-driven industry.

  24. Just before midnight, I’m planning on setting all my available characters except Brian & Lois to 24 hour tasks & not collecting until after the android release so I can collect maximum blam once it starts. Any suggestions on special outfits or dual-character tasks to maximize this strategy would be appreciated.

    Like

  25. Thanks for this. I am right on target, but that took 800 clams for 2 big blam trucks, setting alarms, and lots of surfing bird.

    There are already reinforcements on the horizon.
    First of course is Patrick Stewart earning blam, so its likely we’ll get blam from rescuing the other comicon celebs.

    Next is Red Hot, Lois’ hero costume.
    It’s likely her tasks will earn blam.
    Then of course Chris and Quamire have hero costumes coming up, and they will likely earn double blam just like Capt. Hammered.

    Finally the ‘Q’ prize earned at 50,000 will spawn more nerd, the main source of Blam in the event. Of course the event Q spawns 2 Gold shirts every 6 hours so if the prize Q is the same then it will only amount to 160 blam per day, but over time could mean the difference between getting the next prize or not.

    this is all out there right now, so doubtless there are more surprises coming up.

    As for how a freemium player gets GT, you pay with time if you won’t pay with money. It is probably just barely possible with a massive time investment. but if it was easy, they wouldn’t sell enough clams to keep the game going. Free players need to look at the prize list as half full not half empty. Don’t be mad you can’t get the top prize, be happy to see just how many prizes you can get for free!

Hoping this unprecedented game investment works out because I want all of this stuff. If not, it’s the end of the line.

    • You’ve got a great collection going at this point.

  31. Things will have to change to some capacity. Because from the looks of it even if an Android player pays for all the premium blam items that person would still have no chance of getting George Tekai and that’s definitely not fair if an Android user spends money to get all the blam they can possibly get they will still have ZERO chance of getting every prize out of this event.

    Unless TinyCo has some special Blam boosts, I don’t see how freemium players will get to 100k clams. I didn’t use any clams on the Kingdom event, and I only got to 45k on my own. The only way I got enough to unlock King Butt was through the Jelly-O trick. I really, really hope they learned from that event and make it easier to get George Takei.

    • I’m a premium player and a bit of an OCD completionist. I got four of the bigger trucks and two of the bars and they do wonders at increasing your blam amount. Though crunching numbers, it is probably best to wait until near the end of the event. That gives TinyCo a chance to increase drop values and other ways of winning blam to get to the 100k mark (like the King Butt shots thing). If toward the end of the event you are still a bit off, buy a bar for 700 blam and just keep finishing the task for 16 blame to get you over the line. In my opinion that’s the most efficient and cheapest way of getting George if you are willing to spend a few clams. I should take my own advice because I’ve already blown a lot of clams to unlock him, lol. In future I’ll use this method! Hope this helps guys.
