Hey there Addicts, it’s time to find out where how you’re getting on in the latest event to hit our games!
Yes with the first week of event halfway over I thought it was time for the Where Are You Now Poll.
So you best get busy casting your votes Addicts. And remember the results will show and update as players answer, so it will also let you gauge where you are compared to others.
Thanks as always and feel free to leave any other helpful feedback or thoughts in the comments. And of course if your feeling like venting you can vent it out in the What The Deuce post HERE.

Running late for week 2. Still trying to get the 600 Shamrocks. Hopefully by end of day today.

Since I have recently unlocked District 8 and don’t have Stewie yet, nor the Quahog Dog Park, it’s taking forever to get Golf Caps. Need 8 more before I can get Mickey!

I finished yesterday and will be carrying over 200+ Shamrocks into Week 2. But that last building was a useless waste of 600 clams. I had all the beers several days ago. I would rather have skipped it and carried over 800 clams to week 2. I like when there used to be more optional buildings. They are, of course, also way too large to fit on the sparse land available. We need either more boats and things that float on water or a water reclamation device that lets us convert water to land. Or a shrink ray to cut those 10×10 buildings to 5×5.

When will we ever learn!!!?? Once again, I though a phase of an event was IMPOSSIBLE but still got it done in time! Just got to over 600 shamrocks for the last building with at least 7 hours left to go in phase 1. The sky is not falling, Chicken Little.

This has got to be one of the most obnoxious mini games ever! If I didn’t have so much money invested I’d tell them where to stick it. I’m not wasting money on “bug spray” they’re smoking rock if they think so. And they need to let up with the stupid roaches already! Bad enough it said it needed to “restart” and screwed me on O’Brien after I already had him! Beyond pissed with this mini game!!!

All I can say is that if I felt like you sound, right no, I think I would quit. You should not get worked up so much, regardless of your investment, on any “game”. Maybe you should consider doing what I did one summer, and take one or two events off, then see how you feel. I logged in once per day, collected all the free Clams I could by watching videos, did the Daily Quests for more Clams and Tan Lines cash (that was before I could finally buy Evil Monkey), and waited for an event I cared about, which I then had a nice cache of Clams to spend on, making it “fun” again!

I’m ready for Phase 2. 600 was a lot of Shamrocks, but I finally got there today. Now I have 62 extra shamrocks to carry over for Week 2. I will likely be up to 100 or more extra Shamrocks as we roll into Week 2. These last two events have been much more reasonable to achieve. I find the key is to identify tasks on the critical path and spend a few saved clams to speed up those early tasks to get you up to part 4 or 5 rapidly. Then everything else seems to fall into place early for me. But I also check the game compulsively all day long and don’t sleep much ch. it’s Tuesday night in Florida and I’m just waiting for Week Two. Do we expect it 6pm tomorrow (Wednesday 3/13)?

Drop rates for bug spray and potatoes are both dismal. Saved up 6 sprays and only got one potato. Next time, 3 bug sprays and only one potato. 24 hours to go in this week and still need 250 shamrocks to get the last building, which I don’t even need for the beers.

I am not one to usually stick up for TC/JC but no one should complain about this event …. with one exception. The 600 shamrocks for the final building to move along in the quest line is a pretty tough get without having the building that generates shamrocks. For people complaining about the difficulty of the event, they haven’t been playing along. The gameplay is no different than we have been seeing for the last couple of years. This was not intended to be completed in two days but last the whole week. I am fine with that approach except the 600 shamrocks is a reach based on what is put into our games. I am long since the point where the drops from the last building will assist me in the game (I have had all the beers for a few days now) so maybe like other events this building could be considered “extra” and not needed for the quest line. I will have Mickey first thing tomorrow and be right on schedule for the next phase, except for working toward that building. I hope that doesn’t hold me up too much and shorten the number of days I will have for the final week. And if the shamrocks needed fir future items continues at this increased rate, there will be no chance because there just are not enough shamrocks available in the game currently.
And as for the infestations and the buildings, there should be no reason to be using sprays unless it is to free up a collection of an item. The free spray is every four hours and should be used on a building that houses a four-hour task (that compilation of tasks and buildings is a couple places on this website). The collected sprays don’t expire, so if they are being used randomly, of course they are going to run out. This is, and has been since they decided to stop doing districts, essentially a strategy game. If you don’t have a plan, you will fail. And Russian Tigger and the team here have done amazing work to help everyone formulate that strategy and get through events. Thanks to her and everyone for being so gracious to share their knowledge for the good of everyone.

I am sure you will get some people disagreeing with you, but I must admit that I feel the same way you do. And while I may not have 600 Shamrocks for the final building by 6:00 today, I almost certainly will have the key target, Mickey, and should have the building shortly thereafter! (Of course, this depends on the darn Spray drops, but at least I am not also waiting for Potatoes! :-)) I don’t buy premium characters or buildings (except for in events that really mean something to me), and only spend a few clams to “rush” tasks, where needed, and have completed the last few events relatively easily. And of course, I thank RT for that, too!!!

I did that thing again where i forgot to click on the ‘Sir Knight-a-lot is here’ GO button!
I’ve done everything multiple times and close to unlocking Mickey so should be on Pt.7 but because I overlooked clicking GO in Pt.3 I’m now playing catch-up on main questline. (facepalm)
Regardless, the 600 shamrocks for the last building is going to be a massive pain to achieve. I currently have 171, can’t see me getting another 330 before Wk2 starts.
Noticed as well that spray drops has lessened from every other griffin cleared to now dropping 1 in every 5 or 6 cleared.

I agree. I’ve actually just unlocked Mickey with only the character drops and the first building. I still need almost 250 shamrocks to unlock the last building (that I don’t even need now)!!
The bug sprays have also been pretty sparse. 600 is a bit steep a price, I probably won’t advance the quest in time for tomorrow because of this.

Same as others: 600 shamrocks is too much for a building. I’ve already unlocked Mickey so the beers from the last building won’t be needed.

I feel your pain! I’m beyond aggravated, it decided to restart after I got O’Brien, had to get 3 more tails even though he was finished. My iPhone almost was thrown through the wall! The mini games I swear try to rip you off.
