Hey there Mafioso!
Looks like TinyCo added an additional Challenge Element into the games today. Many of you probably already saw the “Speed Feed Diabeto” Pop Up into your game.
Let’s take a look at this in a bit further detail.
Just to clarify this right away, these Challenges will ONLY be seen by select Players that have spent Clams in the past on in game Purchases. This is also SUPPOSED to be “VERY Challenging“. So it is an optional item for some Players to try. You do NOT have to do these Challenges if you do not want to. In other words, you may have to spend Clams to complete the Challenge.
These all will be a ONE DAY TIMER… so you have 24hrs to complete this Challenge.
WHERE CAN I FIND THE NEW CHALLENGES INFO?
Outside of getting the in game pop up of the task and timer associated, if you go into your Event Menu (Don Corleone Icon, Lower Right Side), tap on it.
You will see a NEW Section has been added to it. One with a Timer on it. Tap on the Timer Icon.
This is where you will see the Prizes for the New Challenges added.
FIRST CHALLENGE & PRIZE
The First of these Challenges just popped into our game and involved Diabeto. Here is what I saw in my game. It came with a 24hr Timer attached.
Speed Feed Diabeto!
Peter starts
Take Down 4 Gurl Scouts- Use Luchadors to take down Gurl Scouts. 2 Luchadors per Gurl Scout.
Take Down 12 Rival Cookie Delivery Trucks- Use Wiseguys to take down Rival Cookie Trucks. 1 Wiseguy per Rival Cookie Truck.
Take Down Fight Promoter Cleveland’s Casino- ** See Below
Have Diabeto Overeat- 12hrs, Earns 35 
and 6 
Completed Task Earns 500 Mob Rep & Jackpot Entrance Sign
Jackpot Entrance Sign (Decoration): 4 x 7 Base. Not currently Animate
**TAKE DOWN CLEVELAND’S CASINO TASK
Taking Down Cleveland’s Casino means you have completed ALL 3 Star Raids, have the Geronimo Casino, and have moved on to the Additional “Optional Raids”. To Complete this task you will have to do a COMPLETE Run on one of the “Optional Raids”. For me this was FIVE Obstacles total.
I had already completed 5 Optional Raids, so it already took that into account when the Task Popped up for the Challenge and checked it off for me.
I was going to post this tomorrow with the rest of the Casino info, but as it may come in use now… I will attach it here too. Keep in mind, this is what I got in MY game. Your options may vary.
Additional Raids #1
- “The Slot Machine Obstacle”: You will need FIVE Luchador Goons (Hire from Copahavana). Reward 60 Mob Rep.
- “The Bouncer Obstacle”: You will need FOUR Sacks of Money (Get from Joe Offer Protection-4hrs OR Peter Search Couch for Spare Change-4hrs OR Quagmire Shake Down Clients-4hrs). Reward 45 Mob Rep.
- “The Blackjack Obstacle”: : You will have Jerome Flex Muscles (6hrs) AND Mort Flex Muscles (6hrs). Rewards 8 Mob Rep.

- “The Tigers Obstacle”: You will need THREE Luchador Goons to unlock it (Hire from Copahavana). Reward 60 Mob Rep
Reward for Completion: 100 Fedoras x 1.75X Multiplier/ 175 Fedoras
Additional Raid #4
- “The Bouncer Obstacle”: You will need ONE Sack of Money (Get from Joe Offer Protection-4hrs OR Peter Search Couch for Spare Change-4hrs OR Quagmire Shake Down Clients-4hrs). Reward 10 Mob Rep.
- “The Tigers Obstacle”: You will need SIX Luchador Goons to unlock it (Hire from Copahavana). Reward 120 Mob Rep
- “The Blackjack Obstacle”: : You will have Chris Break Slot Machine (12hrs) AND The Fatfather Rig Casino Games (12hrs). Rewards 16 Mob Rep.
- “The Tigers Obstacle”: You will need THREE Luchador Goons to unlock it (Hire from Copahavana). Reward 60 Mob Rep
- “The Slot Machine Obstacle”: You will need NINE Luchador Goons (Hire from Copahavana). Reward 100 Mob Rep
Reward for Completion: 100 Fedoras x 2.5X Multiplier/ 250 Fedoras
As you can see, they vary in items as well as Payout. You can keep doing these over and over to continue to earn more Mob Rep to help you out in your totals. Keep in mind, for the tasks… you are also getting Mob Rep & Cookies for completing them on top of the Obstacle Payouts.
FYI: At the end of the last 2.5X Multiplier, it did reset back to the 1X and starts up the chain again.
MY THOUGHTS
Honestly… it depends on WHERE you are already when these Challenges Pop Up and WHAT you already have and have done in your game. For me… it wasn’t that bad as the Optional Raid was done already, so instant check off there. I always keep my Capacity running on Goons, so that wasn’t too bad either… more just waiting on Trucks to show up… which is constant. So find out where you are… if it is doable within the time allotted… go for it. If you are days behind, it may not be worth it. But… that is really up to YOU. Just like Premiums, where you invest your time and Clams will come down to what makes YOU happy to use them on.
I did use Clams to speed it up for sake of the details, but I could have made it just fine with some time to spare without using them within the 24hrs. Close, but doable.
There you have it. The Basics of the New Challenges dropped into our games. Now I know what many of you may say already, I will only add this… pass any concerns on to TinyCo on this one. Give them some “Constructive Criticism” on it. I know I already did. If you need it, use the What The Deuce too. 🙂
Thanks~ Bunny

Well I thought I had a real chance at the “speed feed diabeto”. I rushed to finish the 3 star casino task thinking that was part of it only to find out you have to do an additional raid.. So ridiculous!! I’ve been concentrating on getting Cleveland Jr. with the tubas that I didn’t bother to use the luchadors for the casino raids. I’ve been on the game on average every 2-3 hrs and still only have 5 tubas. Tinyco is having way to many things going on at once that use the same resources, so no matter how much you get on the game your missing out on something. There’s no way of knowing what task you should focus on first to be able to even complete these “additional tasks”!! It seems it’s all by chance!! I hope they realize they’re really sucking the fun out of the game with events back to back with almost no breaks in between. This game should be more at your leisure and not feel like a job!!

I really truly believe TinyCo needs to stop doing events for the foreseeable future. 1) It is plainly obvious their servers are not capable of handling the load. 2) It is even more painfully obvious that their staff are not capable of organizing an event without people becoming furious and not wanting to play this game. Corrections that any type of QA would have caught. Like who thinks having 20 tubes being uncommon is reasonable? Who?? They should be fired.
The amount of bad will these people have caused for players is beyond repair. I dont understand why the staff wasnt fired and replaced after the Star Trek debacle, but its obvious we have the same clowns running the ship this time around too. And who pays the price for it? The players,

I read this last night with 22 hours left thinking I got a chance. At about 16 hours left, I started getting aggravated! I literally would have to SPEND clams I just got with the “deal”, to get the much needed 500 mob rep. I’m not a happy person with the 24 hr challenge and it popping up before I got the actual casino! I’ve let them know, however, like every event they are so backed up they can’t answer. I don’t even get auto replys.
I’ve been playing since yall posted on the other game that this one was up. I have went from this is a great change in game play, it’s fun, easy going, oh this event is going to be awesome, and oh that was a challenge but sure was great!
Now these past few events I’m like wonder what I have to stay up for countless hours to finish, oh man that’s a lot of task to finish, what! How am I supposed to get that done before I can do this, really!! I can’t get to next week bc I HAVE to have this character UNLOCKED, I’m tired, ohhhh I just gotta complete it today or the latest tomorrow to stay ahead, I’ll buy this clam package and the event currency will help me advance (NOT), I gotta run to FGADDICTS and see if I should click on this before doing anything, and that’s just a glimpse of my thoughts.
I’m sorry, I am complaining now. I have been a little let down from other events but this one in only 2 1/2 weeks has really got me feeling like unless you are completely PREMIUM you ain’t worthy of playing! I’m a 85% freemium 15% premium player. If it’s a good deal I will spend the clams or buy for that matter. I feel that I get no where near as far in an event as I used to, especially with the MANY more hours I put in now. I’ll be honest and say I’m NOT going to buy anymore clams. I just feel like I’ve paid for this game more than it has treated me well for the money I’ve paid. The bad thing is I know I’ve put way less than most in to buying clams.
Ok I just had to get that off my back, I’m pretty sad and let down by the whole event. Maybe after this event TC will take a break, catch up on everyone’s thoughts, and get a better formula before starting another big event! Because let’s be honest here
There’s LOYAL Players and there’s EVENT players. The LOYAL ones should matter more imho!
Thanks Bunny and Alyssa (someone else?) for always keeping up with each event and spending all the money to buy clams just so you have the info out here for us!

Considering that the grand prize will be unavailable without winning the 1st challenge I think tinyco missed the boat big time. I play every couple hours, spend more than I’d like to admit every event and yet my bonus for that is, hey here’s week 1s challenge and by the way you have zero chance of getting it if you don’t drop some serious clams. I would have been more inclined to spend more towards the end of the 3rd or 4th challenge than at the beginning. I sincerely feel for you ladies as I’m sure you have heard way more than your fair share of complaints in the past 12 hours. I did send a note to tiny co also asking about what the deal is with the missing tubas, response was we know and are working on it. Apparently the money grab for the challenge was of more importance.
LikeLike
I read on another site: TinyCo confirmed the Speed Feed Diabeto questline is only supposed to appear for players who have made purchases with real money.
I guess since I’ve managed to purchase at least 4 characters with Clams that I’ve earned over my playing history that I got tagged as a “spender.”
This effectively means the intent of the Challenges is to get people who have spent claims in the past to spend more clams. In other words, TinyCo never intended for Freemium players to attempt them.
I only hope that the Grand Prize isn’t something that I would really want. Although the wording seems a bit off: “Collect all FIVE weekly prizes…” even though they only display 4 Challenges?

I, for one, along with thousands of others, will not complete this challenge. There are two groups of players who will.
1). Those that must have everything and will buy clams to achieve that goal. More money for TinyCo.
2). Those that can only get everything by cheating. I believe TinyCo is using this new method to find them.
This is a win-win for TinyCo.

The challenge kicked just after I got my third star and was out of luchadores, so for me it was a matter of forfaiting it or expending clams instead. I will have to pass on this one. Hopefully we will get another chance to earn the last prize. If all challenges are going to be as hard as this one, then we better save time and give TinyCo our credit card info, lol :).

The challenge is prob the toughest one yet. I hadn’t started the add* quest in the casino yet and to get everything done it cost me 60clams.
This is how I did it. Had to pay 48clams to finish all 6westler dudes. But before I paid I alrdy sent quag, Peter, and joe on the money bag quests so when I finished the 1st step at the casino they had a head start.
And the I put mort and Jerome on their tasks at the same time. So when Peter, quag, and Joe were done with the moneybags, Mort and Jerome only had an hour or so left on their requests.
They only made three out of the four moneybags, so I had to spend 10 clams to finish it.
Then I had Diabeto on a 24 hour request so I waited as long as I could and paid 2 clams to have him finish his quest so I had the 12 hours to finish his quest for the special.
All while crafting more little wrestler dudes. I will finish it with just minutes to spare.
Since I already won 35 clams from playing this cookie game I didn’t feel too bad spending 60 to finish this, but it would’ve been nice not to have to. I can see why people are so frustrated.

I am in a similar situation. I hadn’t started the additional challenge and had some wise guys on hold for a gold truck that I switched to regular trucks. I also had stacked Joe et al to be ready to click on when I got enough luchadores and wise guys to get past the Gurl scout, regular truck, and first slot machine challenges.
I will probably be out 3-4 hours of speed ups or about 30 clams to get the 500 rep bonus. This will hopefully get me more comfortably in the 1000-5000 final leaderboard.
I am upset that it is not doable without clams in 24 hours if you were not already on the way to finishing the optional challenge. But, I had enough clams stored from previous bonuses, Jesus, and Ollieland to make it worth the purchase.
I was already done with the 3 stars and feel that they should have, at least, provided warning that it was coming or not started the challenge until you at least got to the same point.
I will be more upset, however, if they extend the challenge and give people chances to earn the same 500 mob rep I will get after spending my clams.

Bleep bleep hell. I thought I was free and clear on first challenge, but didn’t read small print. Like one of the earlier posters, I had Diabeto on the 24 hr task (I accidentally sent him on it, because he leveled to 5 and the mask task open and went to top of list and I wasn’t paying attention because had to get off game and was doing my tasking on rout. So I grabbed that task and before I realized it and tried to stop it, it was assigned). I thought no problem, he will get event currency and possibly a mask. Then the challenge dropped and I did the calculations and found I would get in just under the wire except for Diabeto. So I clammed him and set him on 12 hr task. So I just finished the Casino run and saw it was for an optional run. So I clammed Diabeto, sent all my resources to completing the casino (instead of clearing gurl scouts for tuba), took out 12 regular trucks (when I was trying to make some headway with the gold). And just did calculation for optional run (16 luchadors, a minimum of 8 for bouncer obstacle (3 characters 4 hr task need 4 sacks of money) and another minimum of 6 hrs for blackjack obstacle so 30 hours minimum. So unless you were past the first 4 hr of the 8 hours needed for bouncer obstacle you were pwned to complete this). So I spent clams for nothing on speeding Diabeto. Sending ticket next.

I wish I’d spotted the timer before I started this challenge. I immediately sent Diabeto on the 12 hour task, but had I realised it was a 24 hour challenge, I would have just concentrated on smaller tasks to level up Diabeto quicker so I can use his luchador obtaining task sooner. Due to all the bugs I lost over 4 days of play, am only at the start of the second casino run, and only got my very first luchadors last night, so this challenge was impossible without severe real world expenditure. Those of us who suffered the crashes are already handicapped enough in this event… we don’t need more ways to fall behind. When I got back into the game, I was ranked over 110,000… I’ve managed to crawl back to around 30,000, and I reckon Don Corleone is still within my grasp by event end as long as Tinyco play fair… which this challenge wasn’t.

Don’t bet on being able to move up much at all. I am usually somewhere in the 20,000 to 25,000 in rank. Have gotten as high as 5.000 before the board resets and I plunge right back down to the same level. Frustrating.

I think that this is the final straw. There is just too much messing about coming from TinyCo for me to be comfortable with how the game is being run.
First off removing the mob rep from the fancy hedge fences after players / friends have already purchased a *ton* of them means that it’s going to be nigh on impossible to close the points gap on the leaderboard.
Releasing the speed feed Diabeto quest and then changing the requirements for the casino takedown is really out of order too. I started planning/speeding tasks only to find out that I’ve not got a hope in heck that I’ll be able to complete it. Tying it into the weekly challenges and ‘grand prize’ means that this will be the first set of event prizes that I miss out on. Not to mention that it’s only available to ‘paying customers’ in the first place.
It’s just not a level playing field for a competitive event, and TC keep moving the goalposts.

Not happy seeing this task and the obvious lack of thought put into it. Either way you look at it you have to either drop clams to compete it or have already dropped clams to be in any position to complete it.

Kinda kills the fun when you realise that even grinding won’t yield results. 😔

My popup read exactly as yours did last night when I went to bed. This morning it changed to read “optional” casino level. I am still on the third star and more than a little annoyed. I had just started the third star when the 24 hour pop up appeared. I was on track to finish after speeding up the mask guys a few times. Now, 11 hours to go and they change the wording. Not a chance in hell I can finish. If the word “optional” was in the quest from the beginning, I would have seen it was pointless and not wasted my time. Instead, I have been playing this game like it was my job. I got up today at 4am and then noticed I had been killing myself on this game for no reason.

What is wrong with Tiny Co trying to make some money – yes you are probably going to have to spend clams, I haven’t spent a penny on this game and obviously it cost money to make. Everyone wants something for nothing.

I don’t think it’s that in this case. You should always be able to complete objectives in a freemium game without having to spend money. It may take longer if you don’t spend the cash, but you should be able to complete them.

I agree with Alissa, the definition of a freemium game like FGTQFS, Tapped Out or even Dungeon Keeper is that you are able to complete everything the game throws at you if you’re just patient enough and willing to devote some time in it. If you’re less patient or otherwise just want to speed up the process, there’s always an in-app purchase option available. You shouldn’t HAVE to spend real money to feel you’re able to “complete” the game. In other words paying should not be a requirement because then it wouldn’t be a freemium game. 🙂

This event is really trying to make me quit playing. First I, as well as many others, can’t access the game for 4 days. Now this “very difficult” challenge pops up, which by the original wording I think I have a chance of. I had not yet completed the first casino raid, so I was only getting masks from broken-voiced Tyson. 8 hours in, I complete the first raid, check progress, and see they “corrected” their wording to “optional” raid. Thanks an expletive deleted lot, TinyCo. Impossible task, not very difficult. Way to drive off your paying customers.

A bit of. Warning from them would of been nice, can’t see how it was even possible without having the right people already hired and sat waiting. Based on the guide for my casino raid plus cookie girls I need 24 hours worth of luchadors then another 6 hours for goons and quests.
Plus diabeto is on his 24 hour task for masks and since there is still no cancel button he won’t be until an hour before he deadline with a 12 hour task needed.
I don’t mind things being hard but this one is mathematically impossible unless you spend clams to speed up or where lucky in what you had queued up and wandering.

Thanks for letting us know as that wording in the takedown of Cleveland suggests a normal casino raid however upon me completing it I find that it hasn’t ticked off and now says to complete an additional raid, sneaky very very sneaky that from Tiny Co specially being the first prize in something where they haven’t revealed the main prize which no doubt people will want ie the Ecto 1 and so on line previously..thanks again Bunny, will let Tiny Co know my thoughts too as being a premium player I don’t appreciate things like that as I buy enough on clams but this has stung like a bumblebee! Ouch!
