Happy Friday Clammers!
Well, we’ve all made it through another “work week” (kinda, sorta, almost) and the weekend looms large up ahead. All week we field your comments about your frustrations in the game (Are we done with these darn kids running around town yet?!) and we wanted to give you (and us) a fun new way for you to voice your frustrations and get it all off of your chest.
So welcome to What the Hell?!
-Getting REALLY annoyed that you’re still unlocking Tom Tucker
-Annoyed that only 3 characters unlock other characters ?
-Someone cut you off on your commute this morning?
Here’s your place to vent about anything and everything, Family Guy or not. Consider this your weekly bitch fest and get it all out with a good…What the Hell?! And start your weekend fresh! 🙂
Just be respectful of others & be mindful of the language.
Here’s my What the Hell?! For this week:
– Witch’s Cauldron crashes. Every time my husband tries to brew Duck Stewie his game crashes…it’s like the never ending loop with no Duck in sight! What the hell?!
-And…that’s all I’ve got for the game this week…honestly no real complaints about the game this week. What the hell?! 😉
-And finally…The World Series. What the hell?! If I hear one more word about Bumgarner I’m gonna smack someone in the face. Yes, the Giants won the World Series…but they did it because of 1 pitcher. And you know what? I hope his arm falls off next year! Bochy has a history of destroying great pitchers arms by making them pitch too much in the post season (Lincecum anyone? What about Cain? Where has he been?)…BLAH. Rant over. Sad thing is…I’m not even a Royals fan…
Now it’s YOUR turn…give us your What the hell?! moments from the past week! Go on, get it off your chest…you’ll feel a lot better! 🙂








When I started the event,in my game the train station was already repaired, but I didn’t do it, I never even knew it was a thing. There’s no Jasper? This is a really big problem… any help would be appreciated.

1) TinyCo is wearing on my nerves. It seems that though Carl was working for a very short time he is no longer working and the only thing TinyCo can say is that it is not working on Samsung devices. I’ve heard this excuse before and proved them wrong that it is not just Samsung devices. Once again they tell me that the issue is with Samsung devices but it isn’t working on anyone’s Android devices including mine on samsung tablet. as I said before this is what happens when you get Apple fanboys working for your company. Ditch them TinyCo or you’ve lost another paying customer.
2) To those who say that the quest is impossible to get Klaus, I have managed to do so without spending clams. I also have Francine and Fat Lois, all without spending clams. Now that may not seem like a big gripe; however, imagine my disappointment when I received Klaus and placed him only to find that he only has two things to say. he’s barely noticeable sitting on a table and when you tap him he only has two things to say. Really TinyCo! as much money as people give you for these games and you couldn’t hire the voice actors for more than 2 sentences to quote Klaus “What’s wrong with you man.” I figured I better let everybody know ahead of time that class may not be worth your time. He is not necessary to get the 10 clams and if you don’t manage to get him, complain to TinyCo.

So yet again (in Tinyco fashion) make a quest impossible to complete unless you got horse shoes up you know where. Again, coming from someone who plays every hour on the hour (minus sleep), has no hope in hell at completing the timed quest.
Roger is definitely a no go, it’ll be at minimum Saturday before he’s acquired, and Francine will probably be Thursday at this rate.
Tinyco really needs to go pull up that youtube video done by the company Valve on what it means to add cash shops to games, pay walls etc.. Too many people have quit this game and it’s not even a year old yet.

General complaint about something that’s happened to me twice now, I have a very large town with lots of stuff to tap. Unfortunately sometimes you hit something that requires clams and if it’s in the right spot you hit acknowledge as well very quickly and poof clams are gone. I sped up a day task for mayor west before and today I bought all the records for Steve by mistake. I have no problem collecting and unlocking things on my own I only really like to use clams for characters. I played freemium for a while when I started so I understand how valuable clams it sucks to lose them like that and when you do like to use real money it’s like dropping a five dollar bill out of your pocket. Does anyone have experience with contacting Tinyco about this do they help you out? The first time it happened I let it go as a “my bad” but I’m not impressed with losing 75 clams on Steve. I think because of the nature of the game it should have like a 3 second countdown before you can acknowledge buying something with clams so you wouldn’t buy something accidentally by rapid tapping. I don’t think this would be annoying because I don’t see someone needing to make lightening fast purchases.

If this is supposed to be a clam festival, where are the clams?
It’s ok for Carl to turn up now and again offering 2 clams, but we need more.
I would have thought that we could’ve at least got 1 or 2 clams for visiting every neighbour. I just visited my limited amount and didn’t get a single clam, where as before, I cisited them everyday and got a clam everyday.
I think to make this a proper clam festival, random amount of clams should drop every 12 hours or so.
Other than this little complaint, I am loving the game, and have unlocked both Bitch’s, as well as Steve and Hayley, now francine and roger to go when they hit.

So… supposedly the “Official” TinyCo response I got was that because I’m on a Samsung device, that the issue is that Samsung is “reviewing the content”. Total BS and full of Fail. Samsung doesn’t review Apps that go on the Google Play Store, Duh…. they think us idiots I guess. It seems my ire was well directed as it would appear that TinyCo is full of Apple Fanboys! It doesn’t work on any Android devices or emulators, right? Funny how it does work on iOS and iOS emulators (been there done that and tested it for certain).
Directed at TinyCo whom I know read this site: BTW, this is strike 2 TinyCo. You’re one foul-up away from making my blood boil. Fantastic! It’s not that I’m against Apple… just Apple Fanboys… I digress and that’s another story for another time. Fix it Fanboys or forever be known as TinyCo… a division of Crapintosh! 😛

Ok, had a long diatribe to post about the halloween in both pros and cons; however, I decided just a few things of relative annoyance as i’m pressed for time this evening. So here it is:
WTH: During halloween event noticed Cleveland was a premium character being sold for 400 clams on my buddy’s iphone. Really tinyco? You fubar the first rollout of Cleveland and alienate the hell out of those that didn’t get him, then add insult to injury by making him a purchaseable? If that were the vase, he should be listed under the characters you buy list. Greed is bad m’kay!
WTH: Still no Carl for Android users. Apple fan boys running the company are they tinyco? More alienation of players by giving a monetary edge to anyone playing on a non-android device? I call shenanigans due to poor management decisicion of letting it ride. If it’s broke for some, module should be removed. Of course that is unless something more sinister like Apple or MS lining pockets to create a marketing ploy is what is really happeneing there. Otherwise you have a staff sponsored glitch abuse on your hands. Tell me I’m wrong. No I don’t think tinyco should remove the option. I think it should be made available to everyone or noone until it’s ready. Still waiting on a response from tinyco on this one. Got a canned message with specifying anything other than that it is a new feature with an issue.
Really in the end, a certain other cartoon franchise had it right the other night when it poked at this game and TSTO… freemiums are anything but free. If you didn’t see the episode, you should. We’re all addicts and I blame Canada for it 😉 Just my 2 cents.

I feel as if I am alone in this matter. Ahhhh help!

So, I have been thinking for a while (and not sure if somebody else has already suggested this), but tinyco should introduce an alternate option to “rushing” character and building tasks. My idea is that in addition to being able to spend clams to rush something, there should also be the option abandon a particular task (character task, building construction, building drop, etc). This would be helpful in times where you might need a particular character freed up for a timed event (have read many addicts complain about this through the past few events). The compromise would be that no matter how far along the current task is, you would forfeit any xp/$/items associated with completing that task. Maybe it could even cost additional money to do something like this (god knows many of us are flush in cash that will never be used by this point). I don’t know, seems fair to me; clams rush the task and give you rewards, or you abandon the task at a non-clam cost and forfeit the pending reward.
