Hey there Linebackers!
Seems our lil American Family, mainly Peter, obsessed with some Football has swayed the creators to drop in his favorite sports game into our silly lil Quahogs.
Just what does this mean? IT’S FOOTBALL TIME IN QUAHOG!! Get your game face painted, your pom poms at the ready, don’t forget to get a lot of snacks and drinks for the rowdy crowd… TIME FOR A TOUCHDOWN!!
THE FOOTBALL CHALLENGE WILL END THURSDAY FEBRUARY 11th @3PM PACIFIC
First up, the Basics…
- Peter will start the Event
- In order to see all that is included with this Event, make sure you are on the lastest App Market Version of the game. 1.17.0
- Players will ONLY see this on the Mobile App Version, not Windows Stand Alone
- Players will need to be to at LEAST District 3 in their games and have Al’s unlocked.
- The Li’l Griffin’s Event will End today, January 21st, until 3PM PACIFIC. (2 Events running together temporarily.)
- You will have until the End of the Event to unlock items, anything not unlocked BEFORE the Event Ends goes with the Event.
I am only here for a very very very short lil bit as I am temporarily “with it”, but that won’t last long. Lol. With me in n out of conscious, Alissa will be helping me out a lot with this one, so hang in there while she pulls all the stats and details in the usual way and update them to this post as she runs through the Event. Back with more in a bit…
***Crashing Issue in Football Field***
Watch for 1.17.5 Update to correct. Possibly as early as tomorrow AM.
UPDATE BUNNY 4PM EST 1/22: Downloaded 1.17.5, then force closed app, then restarted my device to ensure it completely updated new version. Went to football field and tapped on marker, pulled up my helmet count requirement, tapped on “Go” … task check off and I could “hike”. Able to move forward on Football Field again.
For those of you that have been crashing on any actions with the Football Field, try the same.
- Download New 1.17.5
- Force Close App
- Restart Device
- Try Football Field action again to see if crashing issue gone.
(Side note: same for Alissa)

CHARACTERS
Football Jersey Chris: You complete him in Al’s
Requires
14 Playbook (ALWAYS): Get a First Down
25 Face Grease (Common): Clear Annoying Super Fan
15 Helmets (Uncommon): Quagmire Throw a Short Pass OR Jerome Throw a Short Pass OR Tom Brady Make a Perfect Throw
5 Microphone (Rare): Joe Investigate Source of Prank Calls OR Bruce Frolic with Jeffrey OR Human Rupert Chat on the Phone
Tom Brady: 250 Clams, No current Questline, Not Currently Voiced, Helps earn Helmets (2hr task). ***Sadly… so far… no indication or Task to “deflated balls” but I am still keeping my hopes up. Lol.***
ANNOYING SUPER FANS
Appeared right away. At first they seemed to take a bit to spawn, but now seeing around 7-8 at a time in my game. Require 1 Football Launcher to take out (create in Training Facility).
Annoying Fan must be in the “Kill Zone Circle” in order to take them out (Look for the Annoying Super Fan to turn Purple), then place Football Launcher in FRONT of the Fan so they are in the circle still when you place it.
Payout: Varies from 1-2 Face Grease
FOOTBALL FIELD
Every 10 Yards has a Requirement to move forward on the Football Field. The Requirements will vary per Player. Game Requirements Bunny’s Game. Tap on the ! in the Football Field to find out what your Requirements currently are and what “Yard” you are currently on.
Requirement 1, 80 Yards Out: Take Out 1 Annoying Fan & Collect 2 Helmets
Requirement 2, 70 Yards Out: Have Quagmire Throw a Short Pass & Collect 3 Helmets
Requirement 3, 60 Yards Out: Collect 3 Helmets & Have Tom Brady Make a Perfect Throw (Will only show IF you have Tom, if not another task will take its place) ***This part is glitching, tapping on Helmet crashes game and the Helmet count is not working, TinyCo aware and working on it***
Rewards: Chance at 1 Playbook AND/OR 1 Weight (character needing weights releasing 1/22)
SCOREBOARD
Here is where you can keep track of the “Games” you have completed. Each Game will have a set amount of Requirements. These are the ones per Bunny’s Game
Game 1: 1 Football
Game 2: 15 Helmets & 2 Footballs & 14 Weights
***FYI… Once item is used, it is used. For instance once 1 Football is used to complete Game 1, counter will go back down 1 Football, subtracting the 1 used.
You can complete each Game and work towards getting, so far, 3 separate prizes. Here on the current ones listed.
Richard Sherman (Character): Win 3 Games
Cheerleader Bonnie (Costume): Win 6 Games
Touchdown Jesus (Costume): Win 8 Games (for Players that do NOT have Jesus, you will get Jesus for Free with this Costume)
TRAINING FACILITY
Here is where you will create items used to take down random Walking Characters in the game. For Phase 1, that is the Annoying Super Fans.
In order to take down an Annoying Super Fan, you need to create a Football Launcher. In order to create a Football Launcher, you need Wrenches.
Wrench: Peter Stub His Knee OR Chris Run Around With Bucket on Head OR Mort Retreat Cowardly OR Jerome Host Happy Hour OR Aaron Rodger’s Discount Belt Store
Football Launcher: Takes 30 minutes to Create.
Your Capacity (the TOTAL amount of items you can have creating AND completed in the game at one time) will vary. You will start out at a Capacity of 6. You can increase this right now only by a Clam Purchase of the Hatorade Fountain. More options may come later in the game. So if your capacity is 6, that means you can ONLY have 6 total in your game whether completed or waiting in queue to be created. No more than that will be allowed.
Your Queue is the current items creating in the Training Facility. Right now your Queue is only 4. That means you can only make 4 at a time. You won’t be able to make anymore until those 4 finish.
RANDOM MATERIALS
Wrench: Peter Stub His Knee OR Chris Run Around With Bucket on Head OR Mort Retreat Cowardly OR Jerome Host Happy Hour OR Aaron Rodger’s Discount Belt Store
Footballs: Reach the End of the Football Field OR Get a First Down Now says “Progress Down the Football Field” (I think due to Player confusion as to when they actually got a “First Down”…so just keep going til you get a Football. It is NOT every time you clear a Requirement.)
UPDATE 1/22: Clarification on Football drops. EVERY Touchdown is an Always drop for them. Progression through the Football Field is a CHANCE drop of a Football (more Rare to Extra Rare). So you can get one randomly as you play the field, but your main source is getting to the end and getting a Touchdown.
Weights: Get a First Down OR Football Jersey Chris Practice Blocking

If I use my weights to help unlock Gronkowski will that deplete from the number I am seeing on my football field scoreboard? I have enough to click the check mark on him. But not enough for the football scoreboard. So for instance if I use 14 ( not surehow many I actually need just a guess) to unlock him, and I have 14 /24 (again just a guess not currently in the game) showing on the scoreboard, will I then have zero on the scoreboard?

Correct. If you use ANY Material for any item, it subtracts it from the overall totals.

I have an Amazon Fire tablet and am having issues when I get a touch down. The check mark is still on the end of the field and every time I tap it I have a few seconds before the game blanks out. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Force stop. Nowhere does it show an option for an update. I even restarted my device. I don’t have facebook so I have no way of going on to see if that helps either. Guess I just wait it out? 😦

Hi bunny, my friend has a LG phone and she’s been playing fg for a long time on it. She tries to update the game but there’s no update and every time she start the game it tells her to update her game but then there’s a message that say this device cannot support this. I uninstall the game but when I try to reinstall it I couldn’t find it on the App Store so I went to her Facebook and and try it on there, long story short it says that her device cannot support the game, do u know what happen there? I mean her game work fine up until this new update. Thank you for ur help.

Depends on the device. I would suggest to NOT try searching it and instead trying directly from the App’s Home Page to see if it will allow the install. Otherwise contact TinyCo. Give them all the details of the device.

Having the same crashing issue as others have reported when scoring my first touchdown. The football pops out after pressing the Awesome button, then Crash. Doing it on both my Samsung devices, which are a Galaxy Note 8.0 tablet & my trusty old Galaxy S3 phone, both running Android 4.4.2 . Updating the app and device restarts did nothing. I’ve sent in game messages.
Well wishes to Bunny, hope you have a speedy recovery ☺

On Facebook, I cannot see the requirements for moving up field. It is just a blank screen. However, when I do meet the requirement, whatever it may be, the game does recognize it and counts it as complete. I don’t know if it is going to freeze when I finally get a touchdown (on 1st and goal now).

Just a heads up for anyone thinking about spending 175 clams for the Aaron Rodger’s Discount Belt shop, the “chance” of it dropping wrenches is NOT 100%. I thought most premium items that say chance really mean 100%. But the last 2 times my building did not drop a wrench. So think before buying because, for me at least, I haven’t had it drop a single wrench so far! Not really any help for me (so far).

I’ve been messaging the support time back and forth and even though the game claims that field progression drops footballs, AND even though this very post states that field progression may result in a rare to extra-rare drop of footballs, TC support said to me that this is not the case and that they verified it. The ONLY way to earn a football is to score a touchdown at the end of the field. Their response to me confirmed this.
I wish (and asked them) to remove the claim within the game stating field progression can earn a football. So much confusion for players already, so they should simply remove the confusion, lol.
Would ya’ll also mind taking down that adjusted update in this post? It would really help clear up confusion. Thank you for all your help!!! 😄

As that is EXACTLY what they told me when I asked why the “Progression down the Football Field” is there… no… I will not remove it.

I think you’re spot on and absolutely correct, you only get footballs for reaching the end of the field, not for progressing.
This is also what TinyCo told me, and despite Bunny’s comments to this post and to my own, I still think it is very confusing. 😉
LikeLike
This is another reason the “progression” applies too… you do NOT have to reach the end of the field to score a touchdown, you can actually get one at ANY time you progress. (Think of a real game, anyone at anytime can run in a touchdown… from 80 yards to 8 yards, etc). So you could essentially still be “progressing” down the field and not at the end and get a Football. 🙂

Hahaha omg I’m sorry I just choked on my sandwich reading this.
This is probably more WTD, and I’m sorry Bunny, and this is a totally general post, not aimed at anyone at all, just stating my experience.
I’ve also reached out to TC about the drop rate, number needed for Chris’ outfit, and also w the stats and numbers I’ve gotten, also in combination of the length of the event, about the Face Grease. Well.. They were very happy for the information and my input and the time I took and the stats, yadda yadda.. Still wasn’t happy, so I approached them w a customer service angle, which I won’t go into here because my left hand is going numb, 6s plus might’ve been a bad idea, and customer service etiquette is an aquired taste. It’s not for everyone, so I don’t suggest bringing that up unless you know what you’re doing..
THEN. Then.. I came to the part on the field where I needed to give up.. Overall 4 of those Face Greases to win my First Game..
HOWEVER!!
I have been receiving a Face Grease from every fan ever since I sent in that very polite, business-talk, numbers galore in-game ticket. So maaayyybe they might have listened.. Businesses listen to business. And I wasn’t even at the point where I had to sacrifice Face Grease to advance down the field.. Just some tips..

Lol sorry about that, got any sandwich left for the audience? Pretty please with sugar and a cherry on top?
