And suddenly addicts are Kung Pow fighting, and spending resources faster than lightning. Yes, fellow karate kids, there’s a new event in town and it’s full on believe me. So let’s take a look at what Kung Pow Quahog has in store for us.
WARNING: Daniel Larusso is timed, repairing the cherry tree will activate the 7 day timer you have to unlock him. Be aware the main Questline Mojo in the Dojo Pt. 4 will direct you to the cherry tree, so if you want to delay the timer don’t complete this part of the Questline until you’re ready.
EVENT ENDS WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 15th 2017 @ 3PM PACIFIC
As a quick aside, a few weeks ago we asked you what you’d like to see on the site and you said you’d like to see the return of an event home page with links to all the events posts, anyway your wish is our command, and you’ll find it HERE. You can also access it from the addicts home page by clicking on the Dojo Peter event icon.
First up, the Basics
- Players will need to be on the App Market Version 1.36.0 or higher in order to see the event.
- Players will need to have at LEAST District 3 Unlocked and Al’s complete.
- Players will only see this on the Mobile App Version (iOS, Google, Amazon, Facebook). NOT Windows Stand Alone
- PLAY THE GAME! Items unlock in stages and as you progress, so if you do not see an item it is most likely you have not progressed far enough in the Main Questline to unlock it. Check details below for more specifics on unlock points
- Don’t have a TON of Tasks open in your Task Menu. If you have too many open, no new ones can arrive. (Keep it under 10). If you do not see new Tasks popping up, clear out some incomplete Tasks already on your List to make room for more.

Depending on your combination of fighters it may take more than one attack to clear the nerd, they start with 8 health points and if you only damage him, you will see his health go down by 4 points, so he will have 4/8 health points left, when you attack again make sure you attack this nerd and not another who will have 8/8 health points.
Also so be aware your fighters will not start to heal until they reach 0 health points.
MR WASHEE WASHEE
Please note this isn’t the character unlocked in the game, but a villain to defeat in the battle arena. You will see this and Mr Washee Washee in the event area as you progress in the main Questline. It looks like this:

Depending on your combination of fighters it will probably take more than one attack to devent Mr Washee Washee, he start with 16 health points and you need get these to 0 to fully defeat him.
Also so be aware your fighters will not start to heal until they reach 0 health points.
There you have the overall basics of the first phase of the Kung Pow Event, I’m sorry for the delay but Bunny usually covers these posts, and hasn’t been able to this time.
What do you think of it so far? Any tips for fellow Players? Any items you are most excited for? Any items you immediately purchased? Let us know.

HI Russian Tigger – I fought Mr. Washee Washee again to earn the 28 rice balls required for Meditation Falls…when I went to collect it (I have 30 rice balls), it also required me to pay 164 clams…so, I passed for now and messaged TinyCo to see if the 28 rice balls is a typo/error or if it also requires clams…which make me think, IF Mr. Miyagi is there, then he is premium…if not, who would pay 164 clams and 28 rice balls for a building?

So I won’t be getting Daniel since I triggered the timer much too early and I’m okay with that. My question is seeing as how the only real and effective way of getting belts for rice balls is through defeating nerds, and using dojo Peter alone isn’t enough to beat them, in your experience from past events, do other characters come in to help later on in the event? Or did I really just ruin any chance of moving forward in this event? I’ve accidently triggered timed characters in the past before too but can’t remember if it was detrimental to the game’s overall progress.

I can’t say for sure, but my personal thinking is that other characters will come into the mix for fighting in Phase 2.

Questions –
1) Does the last item (Meditation Falls) have a timer?
2) I thought that Mr Washee Washee was a character that you unlocked as you progressed in the game. I have him already in my game. So I can not remember where I originally unlocked him? Was he from a previous event?
Comments –
I like the “Tweenage Ninja Tortoises”. I will add that to the Retro section of my town. For two reasons, the majority of the retro section of my town is stuff from my childhood (1980s / early 1990s). The original Turtles were always the best (😁). The second reason is that most of the stuff is based around video games (mainly Atari / NES). The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles game on the NES was always one of my favourite video games when I was a kid.
Also I knew that they would add Daniel to the game. The first thing (being the 80s kid that I am) I thought of when I first heard about this event was the Karate Kid movies. 😃

What is bull with tinyco, is not the increase of belts needed but the amount of rice balls you get stays the same low number, a fair way might be like the faster you collect and exchange belts in a row that better the outpay multplier is, just like a boss character. If you don’t make exchange in an amount of time, then you start back at lowest multiple stage.

You will start get more white belts when you start to clear nerds, 24 for each nerd completely defeated, hence the increase in exchange costs.

The cost of stuff in rice balls drops too, so that helps. It takes a lot of belts to make the rice ball exchange, but the amount of rice balls needed to buy things goes down so it’s not so bad. Nerds give a lot of belts, and I’m able to do 2 attacks a day. I bought walking joe too tho.

Ok – tested an idea that if I hold off on placing the plastered master dojo that the exchange rate for rice balls will remain low and not jump up to the 30s as many have reported. Turns out no- it didn’t matter. As soon as I traded in the belts that would have given me enough rice to place the dojo- the exchange rate immediately jumped up. So there goes my earlier plan of possibly stocking up rice for awhile until I had enough to get the other buildings. It seems this is designed to increase based on the number of exchanges you make, not whether or not you place the item. So, onward we go! Hope this helps and good luck all!👍

I’d think of him as a side unlock if you have extra white belts after completing what you need for this phase, I think unless you’ve bought the premium Crane or Walking Joe it will be difficult to progress this Week and unlock Daniel LaRusso if you concentrate on Mr Washee Washee, personally I’d do exchanges to try get Dojo Peter at the very least then look again at your white belt collecting. If Mr Washee Washee is available for the duration of the event you may find you build up excess white belts in the future phases just by playing through the event. But the white belts needed for exchanges climbs dramatically very quickly.

Update on previous “Walking Joe Comment” and the “not healing after 7 hours problem”. I figured it out. I went ahead and used Walking Joe again for a second fight and when his health drops to zero a “heal” box and a 7hr timer pop up under his character. So therefore, he does heal after 7 hours, it just doesn’t start the “7-hour timer” until his health is at zero. Just thought I’d share this update incase anyone else had this issue. I didn’t want to use him when his health was at 4 bc I didn’t think he would win bc he wasn’t at full health, so I was waiting on his health to go back up again and it never did. And he actually will win when his health is at 4 as long as the nerds strangth is also 4. Sorry for the previous post and thank you!

Yes. I’m into the high numbers. Ridiculous! I’m trying to get 5 more rice to get the stupid Zen garden, so I can the the next buildings too make sure I don’t run out of time for Daniel. I didn’t realize he was timed.
My last trade was 30 something/3 now it’s 35/3. I’ve seen 37, 30, and 33. Looks like the farther you get, the higher they are.

Mine jumped this morning after placing the Plastered Master Bar, wasn’t sure if that was the trigger for the increase.

Mine just went up to 20. Just placed master bar. Didn’t buy joe or crane and haven’t got dojo Peter yet so only have Lois, Chris and Herbert to get trophies to get belts. Was waiting to meditate at cheery blossom until had at least some of the buildings for Daniel but not sure that’s possible before the next phase starts. Now I’m deciding if I want to try for Daniel more than I want to progress. I have a feeling that with dojo Peter the only one to fight nerds the rest of the event will be difficult.
Well, at least my drop rate on trophies has been good and I should have dojo Peter soon.

The exchanges continue to go up, I’m hoping once I get Dojo Peter and start clearing nerds it will help with the white belt totals.

I just got a 50 white belt trade in. I hope they don’t go higher than that. Luckily I only need like 10 more rice balls to get everything. I bought Walking Joe to help with the nerds. I think that is why I am doing okay so far. How are people doing who haven’t used clams?

I’m not sure that Walking Joe’s trophy drop is always. He just finished his task and I didn’t see a drop from him, and it didn’t add to my trophy count. Should I message TinyCo? Has it been verified that it’s an always drop for him? Looks like this can be a fun event even though it looks to be a lot to keep track of. 😜 One grievance for me already is that in the fights with nerds, you can actually miss and end up not doing damage to the enemy which is a bummer. You wait for that Rare drop of a Fight Contract and when it finally does drop, you can’t be sure if you need 2 or 20 of the contracts to beat just one of the nerds. But we’ll see how it plays out. 😊

It goes both ways. They can miss you, you can miss them. But also in same regard, total kills can happen on both ends too

I know in my game, the first time walking joe completed his task for the trophy, No trophy. But since then i have received a trophy each time. I found that weird where i had paid and usually that means its an always drop. I was going to contact tiny co if it happened again but like i said it hasnt happened since. Thankfully.

I asked Bunny to verify it wasn’t always dropping and once she did she brought it to TinyCo attention to fix it, which they have. Glad you’re getting your always drops now.

I’ve noe fought the same nerd 3 times with Walking Joe and I’ve only managed to hit him once, with him hitting me every time. I’m sure it’s “as intended”, but it doesn’t bode well for anyone who started Larusso’s timer already even if they have Walking Joe or not. Thankfully, I’ve kind of learnt my lesson from earlier events as in I almost always check this site when I see a timer or when an event starts. It sort of spoils the surprises and mystery of going through the events, but God knows this site is a lifesaver in these events. 😃👍

TinyCo should give us a heads up when an event is due to start 24 hrs beforehand. My main task characters are locked in 12-24 tasks – and not for the first time either. A pop-up banner shouldn’t be too hard for them, should it?

I’m still awaiting the update. Does anyone know why Amazon is always behind the others? I don’t have this issue with Tapped Out, so I wouldn’t think it’s the fault of Amazon. Does Tinyco have an exclusive deal with Apple or something?

No, I think, and this is just my thoughts, EA are BIG and maybe have a little more clout when it comes to the app stores, TinyCo don’t have that powerbase to push for their updates to be hurried up.

Neither Jerome nor Bonnie have a Task to earn Contracts for me…?? I am to the point where I have a Quest to ‘Clear 1 Nerd’, but no idea how I’m to accomplish this. Hrm.
In other news, I was someone whose Questlines had all disappeared. I hadn’t started Stewie’s yet, and even though it was no longer bolded in his task menu, I sent him on the 8hr task that I remembered being his 1st task – and when he was done, it triggered some dialogue & his questline reappeared! No idea about any other potential uncompleted quests, though. *shrug*

I’m thinking you either need to have Dojo Peter or Walking Joe for these drops to show, as they are needed to clear/fight nerds. Trying get verified.

Aww, that’s a bummer if true, because in many past events, I’ve been able to earn a few items before I could use them, to have a little (usually very little lol) stockpile when I begin. Alas, I don’t recall what the setup has been in the past when this was possible.
Oh well. As long as they show up once I’m actually able to use them, I suppose it’s NBD. ☺

The tinyco FAQ says the tweenage mutant building drops paintbrushes but there is no logo on the item in the store indicating that it does. The buildings for the drums and wax are labeled though. Wondering if the building actually drops paintbrushes, it’s going to take a while to get that one as its the 7th building, would not be good to discover at that point that it doesn’t drop brushes 😮😆😜

TinyCo, please listen: You keep making everything far too ridiculously overcomplicated! This is supposed to be fun, not frustrating. (That’s right: Frustrating. The term ‘challenging’ doesn’t enter into this discussion at all.)
1) Character tasks to earn A.
2) Use A on X to get B.
3) Use B to buy C (but C will cost a random amount of B, so good luck there)
4) When you have enough, use C to buy D1-8 (but only in the predetermined order, no strategy or thought allowed).
5) Use a few of D to earn E-type items (but only a few because half of D will be useless and immediately put into storage because there isn’t enough land available to display it)
6) Use E-type items to earn a character or outfit.
7) Use new character or outfit on Y to earn F.
8) Use F and new character or outfit to perform goal (?) with Boss Z to earn more C.
Looking over all of that, I will say, at least step 8 didn’t result in another new ‘currency’ G.

You would think that with the thousands of apps available, updating them isn’t done centrally by amazon, facebook and google, but through the developers themselves? I can’t imagine there being thousands of amazon people just updating individual apps on the shop when they receive these updates from the developers? Every other amazon shop system is updated directly by whoever it is who is selling stuff on it, so I’m sure it’s the same with the apps stores.
LikeLike
App updates are released by developers but the App markets don’t make them live until they’ve done checks, or else a rogue developer could release anything into their systems.

Wow that must be a huge job for loads of people then, to test each of the hundreds of thousands of updates for all the apps that exist.
Or maybe they auto release most of them and just hold back some where they don’t trust the developer. So not surprising that TinyCo gets held back then 😀

Maybe Amazon don’t have the ideal system in place they need to for the ever increasing amount of apps they are bringing on to Kindle and that’s why we see the delays. It’s frustrating but I’m not sure there’s anything TinyCo can do, they don’t have the power of EA or such to push the app stores, they literally are a small fish in a big sea of developers.

I take that into account but also when the unlocking is part of the quest line, I try to determine how to make sure I can complete all the stages of the main quest line in time for the launch of the next phase so I don’t get behind.

I can’t really give any advise on the Questline as yet as I’ve not completed it, Bunny will on her test game as soon as possible, then we will be able get a post up to let you take that into the mix, until then I’m just working out my exchanges to assess when I can place buildings.
