Hi there fellow addicts.
Yes, finally they’re in, the poll results from the questions we asked in our post to get your ideas for TinyCo.
Firstly I’d like to take a minute to thank everyone who con mended and completed the poll. You made some fantastic suggestions in the comments of the post.
I’ll start with your answers to a few general questions we asked, then break down all the figures for everything else. And of course you can read all the players comments on the original post, HERE!!! I’ll also badger Bunny to try get TinyCo to give us some feedback on this post, least they can do to thank you all for your input.
So here we go, I asked you to rate your enjoyment of the game at this time, where 1 is Hate It and 5 is Love It. I also asked you to choose from a list of words the one you felt described the event best and finally your favourite new character or costume released during the event, so here’s what you said.
Quahog Enjoyment Factor Rating:
4
Seems like many of us still enjoy the game, in fact the results showed over 80% of respondees rated their enjoyment at 3 or above. Not bad considering how tough the game can be at times.
And now here’s the ins and outs of what else we asked.

There was only one stat in this poll that truly surprised me. In the, “What premium items do you think are the best value for your Clams?” category, only 48% said clam generator. There are a whole lotta people that either don’t understand the concept of “best value”, or they still don’t know how the generator works. I snatch those things up every time I see one.
LikeLike
It didn’t surprise me as I’ve saw in event polls more than 50% of players saying they didn’t buy the clam generating building.

I’ve been thinking about this poll and wanted something creative that seemed reasonable so I put some thought to the event main quest line completion question. I would propose that all players who complete the main quest line in an event receive a Peter statue of his costume from that event and that it should be rent collectible. I know — who needs more coins, but I would be more apt to display this collection of statues some place in my town if they were at least doing something (providing coins). All decorations immediately go to storage so I don’t want it to be a deco I will never enjoy. But every main event has a Peter costume so a statue (like the Full Moon Event Peter) of that costume would be fun to have and reward those that make it through. And those that don’t won’t be lacking something from their games.

Some good results there. Lets hope TinyCo pay attention and take a good number of these on board. (Especially a Blue Harvest event!!!)
One thing that stood out to me tho is 11% of players saying peter should be used *more*. Peter is the only character who is involved in EVERY event. Who are these sadists who want him to do even more!

Like some other folks said, another use for Stweie Bucks would be amazing. I would hope that maybe they lower the cost of clam bought costumes and characters which I think would entice more folks to buy them.

What about the coin money system in the game? Isn’t it incredibly broken for most of us? I have like 10 M in money and hardly anything worth spending it on! How about trading money for clams or in event items? At least it would make the rent aspect make more sense.

I would just like to know if there’s ever going to be a purpose for Stewie bucks again after getting Evil Monkey. Otherwise it’s pointless.

i’ve been saving those 240 blue bills … for ages !!! but once i opened the +2 and +4 blue notes levels , things got easier 😀
I literally had tears in my eyes when I unlocked him !!

LOL, I’m at a point where I COULD fill the level to get the +1 red buck if I put everyone in there, but I’ve noticed that, since I comfortably filled the +2 and +4 levels, I’ve been picking up blue bucks pretty quickly – have the 3 gold bucks…it’ll still take me several months, (I calculated about 58 days given the present average drops), but at least I finally feel I am making progress…
LikeLiked by 1 person
if you fill the one with red bucks you’ll lose some of the blue bcz currently you can get 6 blue + 6 green if you got the luckiest drop .. the red will take away one of those if it dropped .. it took me about a year since i bought Babs first (i love her) .. those 3 golds were hard to get but after that it was a matter of time .. the last 3 blue took me 3 days

Has anyone else seen that new clam offer in the game where you complete an offer and get clams? Some are almost up to 300 clams, most are 10-15.
LikeLike
Not saw anything like that in my game. Anyone else?
LikeLike
Yes I did but only on Android not on my iPad. When the ClamTV comes up it now gives you a choice to watch an advert for one clam, or do stuff for multiples (mainly installing other games to give you about two/three clams, or install + reach a certain level to give you more clams, I saw about ten max.) I stuck with adverts though because the other apps didn’t appeal to me, they’re mainly the same apps for which you see adverts, so Zombie shooters and stuff like that. Not my cup of tea 😉

Thanks Chris.

I saw some in my game offering up to 710 clams (!!!) For “installing such-and-such game & reaching level 10”. With offers like that, I cannot see them lowering premium character/costume buys any time soon.
LikeLike
I’d like an offer like that 😀
LikeLike
Interesting, I never had any option close to that many clams.
But I’m sure that “to reach level 10” in that other game you have to spend a tonne of money there? 😉
LikeLike
I was slightly wrong. Checked again today & saw that there were a bunch of offers to “install & reach level 10 of that game” for between 250-300 clams. The one big one was for 714 clams to install one of those auction apps & buy a “bid pack” whatever that & the related cost is.

I get the two different clam offers and I live in Finland. Never used the multiple clam offer because I don’t want to install/uninstall useless games in my phone. I watch 7 ads every day and I collect 7 clams every day from those.

It’s not US exclusive. I’m Argentinean and I also have the two choices. I’ve had them for a couple of weeks now. I tap the TV and I get a pop up asking if I want to watch adds or do tasks. I’ve never tried the tasks though (and reading what Chris write I probably won’t). I’ve been getting up to 7-8 videos a day, so it’s a good option.
I play on a tablet pc with Android, so maybe it’s related to that.

I hope they take these results into consideration – the nightmare event stretch they had at the end of last year into the beginning of this year really alienated a lot of people…I still think the simple fix is the best – give people value, and they will spend clams…the ‘Happy Player’ marketing approach originally proposed by RT is simple, easy-to-implement and likely to be very effective…as is a break between events…a decent break (3 – 4 days) allows us to catch up as well as look forward to the next event…JMHO…
