Hello There Clammers!
Halloween has arrived in Quahog! And Peter, in typical Peter fashion, has decided to tick off the dead. In doing so Peter accidentally opens a dark portal in the Quahog cemetery and unleashes all manner of ghosts and goblins on the city…your job is to help round up these ghost, goblins and ghouls! And while he’s at it he’s decided there weren’t enough ghostly figures wandering around Quahog that he goes and digs up Diane Simmons!
Of course once Diane is part of YOUR Tiny Quahog she’s got a bit of unfinished business to attend to! So let’s get down to the details behind Diane’s questline and her return trip to Quahog!
Remember…Don’t Dig Up the grave (tap the hammer) until AFTER you’ve created Ghostbuster Peter. Once you “find her” you’ll only have 5 days to unlock her or she’ll be gone forever. So make sure you craft Ghostbuster Peter first…since he’s the key to unlocking her.
Hell Hath No Fury Pt. 1
Peter starts
Dig Up Diane Simmons- Repair Dianne’s gravestone. 250 Spirit Vials, 8hrs. DO NOT DO THIS UNTIL YOU HAVE GHOSTBUSTER PETER….
Save Diane Simmons before her Soul Departs in 5 Days- Once you “find her” (ie dig her up and click the check mark so she appears locked in front of the grave) you’ll only have 5 days to get the necessary items to unlock her. If you do not complete this in 5 days you will lose her forever. Timer does not start until you “find her”. Here’s what’s required to unlock her: Chomps the Zombie and the Electricity Ball. You must craft BOTH items via the Cauldron. You do not have to craft items in order, so you can skip other items and jump right to these too. To Craft the Electricity Ball you’ll need 200 Spirit Vials and 10 Terror Dog Bones. To Craft Chomps the Zombie you’ll need 200 Spirit Vials and 20 Terror Dog Bones. Note: Terror Dog Bones will be used when you craft something. So you’ll need 30 Terror Dog Bones all together to craft both items.

I got her before getting ghostbusters Peter I completely missed/ didn’t see the warnings, just got 24 hours until she disappears, not enough bones and not enough clams to get chomps etc sorted that way. I’m really annoyed that her grave wasn’t locked until ghostbusters Peter was created. All the freezing out and glitches haven’t helped either nor the missing terror dogs who are supposed to appear to get the bones.

The “missing” dogs were fixed quite fast. Within hours actually. As far as other issues, I would suggest to try and troubleshoot them and send a ticket to TinyCo if you can’t resolve it through Troubleshooting.

I unlocked her while ALMOST done with ghostbusters peter and it took me her first day to unlock him and I already have the electricity ball and have enough vials to get the zombies and 3/20 bones, so it’s deffinitley doable! Still have almost 3 days and I’ll probably have her by tomorrow !! (:
LikeLike
I think when clearing the dogs, the bones are more likely a common or uncommon item, as I’ve only not gotten them once out of 12 tries so far. Slimer has dropped them 3 times in a row now, so they might have put the same for him. I think it’s only rare with the Haunted House. I have 18 bones so far, haven’t dug her up yet but my competitive side is trying to make me do it so I have a bit of a race to unlock her. :p

Was thinking of starting the grave digging early then waiting to click the checkmark until I was ready to craft the second of the two items I need (Chomps the Zombie) but I learned my lesson when I tried that with the dog pound for Vinny… Had that built during the Kool-aid Man run and was working on Tom Tucker still at the same time and wanted to make sure I had plenty of time for the building to unlock Vinny in the 3 days… Accidentally clicked on the wrong check mark and had his quest popped… Thankfully it didn’t mess me up and I still got Kool-aid Man and Vinny done in their time-limits… Not doing that again though lol

For those who waited to dig up grave this is very doable. As always checked in here while saving up fear points and later in the day saw the whole grave issue. Am at 22 Bones right now and should be at 25 when grave is finished…unless my game completely flakes I think 1 dog bone a day is very doable.This game has a lot of strategy hidden in it so being the fastest isnt always a good thing I learned and checking here with the addicts is always a good idea before getting too far ahead.

Yes! Just unlocked her, got the 30th TDB at 7am and then started repairing her grave, while that was repairing I got a couple more Bones, so crafted the Gargoyle, which looks pretty cool. I’m a little disappointed that Chops the Zombie isn’t animated, I’m hoping that this will be like the Phone Booth from CC, where it wasn’t animated at first, but the animation was added later in the event.

I would think the easiest fix to this situation would be for Diane’s grave to be broken again after the time expires. That way e
If someone fixed the grave early and can’t finish they can go back and fix the grave again and still get the character. The only thing that would be waisted is the spirit vials.

I opened her before the tip was put in. I still don’t have Ghostbuster Peter and I have 1 day and some hours left. Why would they allow you to open her grave without crafting Peter first. This seems entirely unfair that the timer has not been fixed for players whom opened her early. I don’t see how it would be a hard fix if you don’t have gb Peter it’s impossible to get her. I’m not the only one that feels this way. Tinyco is ignoring the issue altogether so people are forced to decide between parting with clams or not getting Diane. Ridiculous.
LikeLike
I get what you’re saying, but at this point there’s not much TinyCo can do. They put a note in on the grave to get Ghostbuster Peter first. They’re also trying to make it easier to get him. If they give Diane to players who accidentally unlocked her, that’s not fair to the other players. They’d have to give her to everyone automatically, which isn’t fair to those who’ve already unlocked her or paid clams. Then how do people get impacted later on? If they make the change, where you can’t unlock her until after you have GB Peter and someone starts playing the event next week and they get to Diane’s grave but find out everyone else got her for free, it’s not fair then. If they change the timer, so there is no time how does that impact players who did the same thing you did but unlocked her or used clams. There’s really no win here for them.
Yes, they should have made it so you can’t unlock her until AFTER you have GB Peter. I 100% agree with you on this, but at this point there’s not much else they can do beyond what they’ve done. They’re doing what they can do to make earning Peter happen faster and they even put the warning in on the grave. You can try contacting them, but honestly I don’t see a win here for anyone.

You say it won’t be fair if TinyCo do something for who dig up Diane before unlocking GB Peter, but I had to give clams for unlocking Sexy Stewie in time, then I learnd that they gave extra time. I could finish him without clams. What I mean is that I think TinyCo don’t care about being fair all the time. Sorry for my english
LikeLike
Sexy Stewie is something entirely different. There was an issue with the timer set in the game. Everyone was seeing different times, so as a result TinyCo reset the timer for everyone and corrected the error.
LikeLike
So it’s OK when TinyCo does mistakes. I open this game 20-30 times in a day. If I can’t get the stuff without clams, that means there is something wrong. I shouldn’t have to pay money because of that tiny mistake. I love the game but I am really sad because of this situation
LikeLike
It was not a mistake. They had no way of determining that people would just tap on everything in sight before even knowing what it was. Getting something with or without clams has no bearing on the play. They HAVE to provide Clam items for the game, or there will be no income to pay employees or for the game you are playing and it will be shut down.
Could it have been planned out better, possibly…but you do not know all the ins n outs that go into making a game nor can you anticipate the actions of MILLIONS of players to an item. They in no means whatsoever planned on it being a Clam buy out for Diane. Not at all. Those that did wait and/or checked their in game info and FAQ waited and are having no issue earning her for free through game play…as she was intended.
I get it frustrates you, but what you may view as an intentional slight…was more player error not forseen. To be honest I myself was shocked how fast players just tapped on every lil thing before obtaining any details on the game. I think the excitement got many.
All I can suggest is to offer them feedback.

The only thing that saved me from facing the same issue was that i didnt have enough vials when i first wanted to unlock her. Next time i checked, they already put the notes. Now i’m just collecting bones before i dig her. I guess what i learnt from tiny co in the past few weeks is to expect ‘it’s no win situation for them’ because of some screw ups. And not to rush things. Lol

As I always say…if you follow the questline you’re usually in good shape. If you try to jump ahead, it doesn’t usually end well lol

For me personally, I spent clams to speed up tasks that got the items for Ghostbuster Peter. I had everything except those damn cards anyway. By doing it this way, I got everything I needed for Ghostbuster Peter and I spent way less clams than I think I would have otherwise. Plus when I had spent the clams to finish a task, a box popped up and asked if I wanted to spend 12 clams to try the task again or 10 clams to automatically get another card, so I spent 10 clams and got another card. I unlocked Diane before they added the note to unlock Ghostbuster Peter first. So I have had less time than people who are unlocking her now. BUT! Because I spent a few clams to unlock Ghostbuster Peter faster, I’m doing just fine unlocking Diane. I need about 10 more bones and I still have like two days left. I’m sure it isn’t this way for everyone, but I spent clams that I had. I didn’t have to buy more clams to do this. If it’s too late on Diane’s timer, your only option is really to spend the clams necessary to get her, so 400 clams. But if you’re in a little bit of a bind and want to unlock Peter, I would highly recommend speeding up whatever tasks need to be done to unlock him.

At 2 hours per bone, I have to be very diligent to have a shot with that math: 8 AM to 10 PM is, at best, 6 zaps … meaning it would have to be a guaranteed drop in 5 days to get 30. Ugh.

I clicked the check mark on Friday.

I probably could have slept more and still had her by tomorrow. And now she’s off to Curse her Ex-Boyfriend’s Name.
