9-11-14 11PM EST UPDATE: iOS Update just hit, so iOS players please check to see if your game is now showing the District 9 items and those with issues of the force reload to update, check the app market to see if it is there for you now. Let us know. Google play also saw an update, but it may just be minor glitch fixes. Kindle users, check yours too and let us know if you see anything yet.
I am putting this info at the top for all to see (it’s throughout the post too). If you have iOS/Amazon you will NOT see the new stuff til your Update hits your market. Only Android had it hit.
If you play on cross devices and updated your Android device then tried to switch to iOS/Kindle, you will only see the “you must update” pop up. Again, you got to wait for your market to push the Update before you can see it. Crossing devices made it now impossible for the non updated one to be able to play.
For Android, Precious Metals quest must be done along with District 8 to trigger the Blimp quest and District 9.
Hope that helps. 🙂
From TinyCo Update: We are looking into fixing all of the “Placeables are out of bound” errors. We were incorrect when believe we had found the solution and are working on it!
UPDATE 420AM EST: I am seeing reports slowly coming in of players back up and running. So check your games, but remember…if EVERYONE tries to jump in at once the server will overload…so give it just a lil bit of time to resolve and hopefully all will be back to normal again.
TinyCo Update 450 AM EST: Our hard work and amazing team stayed late to crush that bad bug! Thanks everybody for helping us fix this issue!
Now let’s go get Meg out of jail!
Again, don’t everyone try to rush the servers at once. This may take a restart to trigger the fix or possibly even an uninstall/reinstall just make sure your account was SAVED TO AN EMAIL OR FACEBOOK before uninstalling/reinstalling. That way your progress will not be lost.
Sorry for the delay, was taking care of some personal family matters. Leave it to TinyCo to drop an event as some of us are a lil preoccupied. Lol. No worries, I am currently going through all the data and will keep updating this post.
I also know that some of your are getting the odd “unable to load save . Some placeables are out if bounds” error. I did pass on the information and am waiting to hear back on anything.
Stay tuned as I add all the details…
You will see a ! over Meg to start the questline. In my game, it seems there are a few lil hiccups with this as Peter’s image was all scrambled. Cracked me up, that’s for sure.
So let’s get to it. In order to get Jailhouse Meg’s Costume into your town, you will need the following items:
20 Poop Bucket (Common): Mort Swallow Jewels, Seamus Swab the Poop Deck, Chris Run Around With Bucket on Head
12 Blue Glass (Rare): Peter Cook Disgusting Vegatables, Stop ‘N Shop, Quahog Mini Mart
8 Soap (Rare): Joe Give Self a Sponge Bath, Connie Get a Luxury Spa Treatment
5 Tattoo Machine (Extra Rare): Lois Show off Tramp Stamp, Dr. Hartman Prepare for an Exam, Meg Practice Bird Calls
(Or if you want to skip it all, it cost 600 Clams in my game to outright buy her.)
=============================================
It also looks like District 9 is starting to launch. To let you know in advance, this will be released in stages. So you will NOT get all the info at once. They will release a lil part of it each week. The First part will be to build the Blimp and locate Tom Tucker. More info and explanation will come later on the Blimp. Users in iOS/Kindle may not see this part until they get the update to their market. We did notify TinyCo of update reload error with no update in market yet.
Stewie will have a ! over his head to kick of the start of District 9 and “Build-a-Blimp Part 1. It will only take 1 minute to do his first task of “Investigate Blimp Site”. He will go to the Lighthouse to do this. Once complete, you will see the Blimp Building site out in the water. Part 2 will be to start construction of the site and need to collect materials. To do this you will need the following items:
8 Blimp Frame (Uncommon): Lois Blast Apart Kegs, Stewie Dumpster Dive, Brian Dumpster Dive
10 Blimp Propeller (Rare): Seamus Flirt with Classic Boats, Stewie Salvage Parts, Quagmire Watch 40’s War Movies, Brian Salvage Parts
5 Blimp Plutonium (Extra Rare): Stewie Collect Blimp Plutonium, Brian Collect Blimp Plutonium, Meg Steal Lois’s Shirt
10 Blimp Control Panel (Uncommon): Lois Shoplift, Stewie Raid Impounded Cars, Joe Upgrade Police Car Radios, Brian Hit on Guard Dog
=============================================
Now for all of you already wondering, WHERE IS TOM TUCKER?
To unlock Tom Tucker, you will need to complete the “Build-a-Blimp” quests (Parts 1-7) and “What the Deuce Pt. 1.” This will unlock District 9. Once you’ve cleared enough land, you can rebuild Quahog 5 News to being unlocking Tom Tucker.
There is a patch of land at the top of your Quahog that is now there that needs to be cleared too. It is broken into 3 sections. $80,000 (1 day 12 hrs)/ $70,000 (1 day 10 hrs)/ $60,000 (1 day 6 hrs). I am seeing reports right now that this is triggering the error that I am still waiting word back on so be cautious until we get more updates on this. See top of post.
To also give you a lil heads up on what to expect, here are the items you will need to unlock Tom Tucker:
20 Microphones (Uncommon): Stewie, Chris, Brian
12 Action Slates (Rare): Brian, Quahog 5 News
10 Satellites (Extra Rare): Peter, Stewie, Channel 5 News Van, Tom Tucker’s Trailer
8 Mustache Creams (Extra Rare): Dr Hartman, Stewie
(Or you can shell out 1120 Clams to outright buy him!)
=============================================
New items:
Lookout Tower $2500 (Mine showed up just as gears)
Stewie Billboard for Free? Woohoo! (Some may or may not see this.) As I stated, this did not show for all. I believe it was a temp glitch, but waiting for confirmation. For now, the billboard will most likely cost clams. You know that annoying glitch that completely shut down the game with the “Placeables Error”? Guess what caused it? THIS DID! So the “Free” was most definitely a glitch and caused mass chaos to players. It never should have been free at all. Only Clams.
A lot more info to come over the next few days. What do YOU think of the new District and items so far? Happy to FINALLY have a skin for Meg? Excited to Build a Blimp? Let us know, we LOVE hearing from you.

Just got done with unlocking District 9 and sped up the building time to start placing buildings and noticed that Tom Tucker has a clam mystery box with a chance to win lots of his required items.

So there’s a locked blimp hanger in the building section, but you can’t unlock District 9 until you complete the blimp. so will it unlock before 9 is opened? Otherwise, it doesn’t make much sense since the blimp will be complete. Am I missing something?

Well here’s what I’m thinking….you’re going to need more than 1 blimp. So once more unfolds of the District I think it’ll show you’ll have to create multiple Blimps for various reasons…

Personally I think its just going to be a place for your blimp after the construction site goes away.
BTW- was it just me, or did everybody get 1 item for the blimp, even plutonium, at the end of each part of the quest with Stewie and Brian? I reall thought that was a nice touch to automatically get 1 item as B&S go about their crime spree to assemble the blimp. This would be the first time a quest put story above the item grind.

Build a prison. Man, quahog is a rough town. Of course even with the extra land on the side, I still had to clear some roads to put the prison down.
They really really need to work on their land allotment. I saw in the buildings section of the store 4 more buildings and there will be the news building and city hall. So Downtown will be full and I will still have a ton of buildings in storage with nowhere to put them.
***** also, why can’t I sell back everything? The “sell” feature seems to only be for certain things and not all. I have that extra waterpark (because I bought one before I realised you got one for finishing the task) and it won’t let me sell that one. And all my fireworks (don’t need all of them). Also, you can’t choose how many. I accidentally sold back all of my hedges because it wouldn’t let me select just one. It’s all or none.
That needs work too.
Well, good start at these features but I’m really only happiest with the character finder. Soooooo happy with that one!

When you say no way to claim Comic-Con prizes…what do you mean? It’s a little confusing. Are you saying during Comic-Con you earned enough blam for all the prizes and you couldn’t claim them? Or are you trying to claim them after comic-con? Just trying to get a little more info so we can see what happened here. If you didn’t claim them during comic-con, BUT you earned enough blam! to unlock them they should be in your inventory. Once the event ended they moved any unclaimed prizes to the inventory. But if you didn’t earn enough blam! the prizes are gone, and currently no way to unlock prizes that you didn’t win.
