CRASHING WHEN COLLECTING
For those who’s games crashed when trying to unlock Don Corleone & Greased Up Deaf Guy… last report is they’re still working on it. So restart device and try again every now and then.
Also ditto for placing the “Free” Don.
UPDATE 1/12: New patches being pushed to hopefully now resolve Don and GUDG issues.
SIDE NOTE: The patch seemed to award additional materials or the Characters depending on where you were in the Event.
Most of you will find the Characters either wandering Quahog or in your Inventory Storage Menu scattered around, so check both Characters and the All tab.
Also for those that needed that character to complete a set, you also got the FaceSpace Character Collection completion Clams.
UPDATE 1/13: TinyCo still working on patches for the few devices trickling through that the previous 3 patches. Hang in there. They know there is still crashing & issues unlocking GUDG.
UPDATE 1/13 245PM EST: Per TinyCo…
The Don’s 3 day timer will not expire when Best of 2015 ends. As long as he is placed before Best of 2015 ends, players will have 3 days to unlock him.
So for those of you asking, you have the FULL 3 days (up till when your timer runs out) to earn him as long as you have him placed to start collecting BEFORE the Event ends.
Still verifying a few items, but this should cover the majority of it. There you have it, a reintroduction of some more of the Characters/Costumes from 2015.
What do you think of this batch of Best of 2015 so far? Characters/Costumes you hoped would return? Any others? Let us know.

Ok I’m getting pretty ticked. I’ve been sending my gang to collect items to unlock the deaths mom, greased guy, & the scrotum cop guy. NONE of the epic items have fallen at all. The bowls rarely fall. I just got a message saying it ends today & I need to unlock them or they are gone. How in the world is that possible. The only time I’m off the game is when I go to bed at 11:pm. The game is not dropping items to unlock them. I’ve seen others on fb with this same problem. Please help!!

All I can suggest is to message them. I did pass on players concerns. For now, it is set to end in 1 hour (3pm PAcific today)

Why do they make these events so short if they are not going to let you collect the items?

got chance to get GUDG and Scrotes and deaths mom has just unlocked.
But I’m unlikely to finish any of them before the deadline due to appalling drop rates. ( and i’v been at the characters actions CONSTANTLY)
it’s almost like they are deliberately getting us nearly there so we’ll make up the shortfall in Clams
Grrrrr

So let me see if I have this right…they didn’t release Death’s Mom until Monday…I need five more glasses and she’s unlocked…so assuming I unlock her tonight, I have less than a day to get Don Corelone? Is that even possible? I keep reading you have to collect stuff for him, but the way the drop rates have been in my games it seems like there’s no way. It’s frustrating since some people seem to have gotten him with no trouble or even just dropped in, while others haven’t even unlocked Deaf Guy!

You will still get your full 3 days if they are in the game BEFORE the Event ends.

Cool! Thanks for getting to the bottom of it Bunny. I just unlocked Death’s Mom and have them all collecting for the Don. I really hope I get him, him and Detective Scrotes were the only two I missed out on from the Mafia event!

Still crashing here unlocking GUDG for over 36 hours now nearly 24 after messaged that it was fixed. So happy every one that didn’t collect items was giving the characters for free and I earned then and can’t even try to earn Don

Not EVERYONE was just given the items and a Free Character. It was those experiencing issues too. Even then not everyone had them all unlock. It all depended on WHERE the player was in that earning when the crashing hit.
Patience. You are not the only one still having the problem. Mainly iOS users now are not taking any of the 3 patches so far well and they are still working on it. (A few other devices too)

Anyone else get Don Corleone but no questline for him? During the period where you could unlock him and then he would be locked again, I did have a questline for him. Once I was able to unlock him and keep him unlocked, there is no questline. I had tried to put him on his first task (8 hour Get His Shoes Shined) when I originally unlocked him and went back into the game to find him locked so I never actually finished his first task. I guess at this point I should just be glad that I finally got him, but it would have been nice to get to see the dialogue of jokes between him and the rest of the characters.

I seem to be the only one who hasn’t unlocked any character. I have only had two drops on the epic iem with about 9 characters doing it constantly and now it’s ending tomorrow and I may just unlock deaths mom but the other two characters are completely out of reach as I doubt suddenly all the epic tasks will drop the item. Sucks really.

You are not the only one, drop rates for my game were miserable.

I didn’t have any luck unlocking thw characters either. Hardly nothing dropped that I needed. If it was going to be like this; why didn’t they make the event last longer. It would have helped with the log in issues to. I guess I wasn’t the only one having trouble getting items and playing the game. On top of that, it ends today, giving us no chance at collecting what we need and getting Don Corleone.

Not sure the method of justice with all of the glitches for this event. I collected everything for Scrotes and Greased Up Deaf Guy (had Death’s Mom), but couldn’t get GUDG into my game to start Don Corleone. The patch finally dropped GUDG into my game and allowed me to start the collections for Don. I am reading that people didn’t have everything for all three characters and got them dropped into their games without finishing the collections AND got Don without collecting for him. My timer started last night and since I have seen nothing about the timer extending past the event, my concern is I will be short an item or two for Don when the event ends even though I will easily get everything before the timer would end (which is after the event ends). I am thrilled that people got all these characters and could care less how they got into their games. Selfishly, I don’t want to lose the Don because I couldn’t get his three-day timer started while there were still three days left in the event because I couldn’t get GUDG into my game even though I collected everything I needed.
If TinyCo is going to stick with the original plan for some players and not for others, at least they could allow for the timer to run past the end of the event. I have no issue collecting for Don (actually would prefer it), but I don’t want the fact that I lost a day due to not being able to get GUDG in my game to be the reason I lose out on the Don.
Please TinyCo, let Ms. Bunny know what the plans are for the timer as it relates to extending past the end of the event if there is time remaining on it! She promises to tell everyone and end the angst!

Got on late last night and all 3 were unlocked after trying for a couple days to un lock the greasy one. I tried to get on for about an hour and it wouldnt connect so i figured they were tinkering with it. They unlocked Deaths mom who i did not have and gave me some clams. Thanks tiny co. I knew they would fix they most always make things right.

People are writing about finally being able to unlock the GUDG and even getting Death’s Mom for free but nothing changed for me. Trying to unlock the GUDG still makes the game freeze. Device restart won’t help. I’m playing on iPhone 6 Plus if it’s important.

Same with me I didn’t get anything for free either. But at least I read about the Cleveland sale here so I logged in via Google (I’m also on an iPad normally) and got Cleveland for 200 instead of 400 clams…! 🙂

Why are some people getting the characters and they won’t give them to others? That is unfair.
LikeLike
They weren’t just “given”. Players were playing the event and the glitches kept causing them issues and delays. So… depending on WHO they already were working on and how FAR they had already got… TinyCo adjusted them to compensate for that loss of time and/or materials they would have got anyway had they NOT had to deal with the glitches. Don’t read too much into it. It was fair compensation for those that couldn’t play or even get in their games at all. 🙂

This was my favorite mini-event. I got Slasher Cat on my first try in the second mystery box. He’s officially my favorite character. I also got Don Corleone but it was a little strange at first he had a 3 day timer on him requiring some items to unlock him from Death’s Mom, GUDG and Det. Scrotes so I put them on tasks a few times and then all of the sudden he was walking around my streets. Not complaining but it was strange.
