HAPPY ST. PATRICK’S DAY!!

Posted on March 17, 2015 by | 38 comments

Hey there all you Lucky Charms!

Bouncing by just for the fun of it to give you a lil change of subject for the day. Today in the U.S.A. is March 17th aka St. Patrick’s Day. Where many put on some kind of Green Colored Clothing, participate in some kind of Green Ale Drinking, and make a feast of food they may not normally eat. (At least that’s how a lot of my friends do it. Lol.)

Telenovela Weekend Issues & Clarifications

Posted on March 14, 2015 by | 234 comments

Hey there Minions!

We see a lot of you have some concerns with the Telenovela Weekend Event. Sit tight, as usual we are here helping. I have only been a bit silent as I have been looking into all the issues and concerns you are expressing and sharing them all with TinyCo.

I have compiled a list of the main ones and highlighted them below. Consuela Technical Support Bunny Glitch Continue reading →

Telenovela Weekend is Here!

Posted on March 13, 2015 by | 432 comments

Update 3/13 9pm EDT: TinyCo has made a couple of adjustments in the game tonight.  They’ve completely removed the clock feature from the stick…so now you must earn Blindfolds to make it work.  However, they’ve added a task for Seamus (Sing Shanties) to also help earn Blindfolds (so now you have Peter, Bruce, Mort, Herbert AND Seamus that can help earn Blindfolds).  

The timer is NOT coming back.  The 4hr task replaces the timer (as they all take the same amount of time).

In addition they’ve added a task for Conseula to drop Cowboy Hats (6hrs, Clean the Town)

Also…as a side note for those struggling with Plutonium.  They’ve added a task for Tricia and Connie to help earn more Plutonium

There currently is a known issue with the bat timer and it not counting down properly.  So if you’re experiencing it, know that you’re not the only one.  The best thing to do is to contact TinyCo via your game and let them know you’re impacted too.  The more players that report it the quicker they’ll be able to determine what’s causing it.  

Hello There Clammers!

Well the weekend looms large and you know what that means?  No, not time to break out the Bunny Water (although it is almost St. Pats!).  Nope it’s time for another TQFS Weekend Event!

What’s in store for us this time?  Well in case you didn’t get it from the title of this post….it’s Telenovela Weekend in Quahog!  So what does this mean for you???  Well….the long awaited arrival of Soap Opera Peter!

2015-03-13 16.35.02

As always we’ll be back with more details as we go through them….for now know that the event ends on Wednesday March 18th (3pm PDT) so you have until then to unlock Soap Opera Peter or he’ll disappear from the game…oh and, as usual, you must be at least District 3 for the event to hit your game.  (as if you newbies needed more motivation to find Lois in your new Quahog!)

Note: Sorry to our Windows friends….sadly this update will not be hitting your devices….

Back with more in a bit!

Star Trek Confirmed & iOS Update

Posted on March 12, 2015 by | 120 comments

Hey there Minions!

Now that TinyCo has officially confirmed the Star Trek Event my lil icon I posted teased to you, we can now go ahead and let you know that March 19th, 2015 the Family Guy Star Trek Event will be launching into our silly lil games.

Star Trek Peter

Are you excited NOW??!! What are your thoughts for the Event? Excited to see how they play into the Series? Ideas of what we will expect? Let us know.

~Bunny

On the flip side, many iOS players should now be seeing a newer Version in the Market for the App (1.7.1). I am still checking to see if my game is back to normal on that device. 

Just finished updating the newer iOS Version to my devices. All seem to be functioning just fine. One I did have to go through the Beginning of the game til the Menu popped to let me sign back in, but it looks like all is working as intended again. WOOHOO!!! Downside, my cute lil Star Trek Icon is gone. At least we now know it is coming soon. 😉  

You may also see this lil fun thing pop up in your game. Feel free to tap on “ENGAGE” as it will essentially take you to their FB Page and the info for the Upcoming Event.

Posted on March 12, 2015 by | 11 comments

Hello There Clammers!

With the introduction of Family Guy: The Quest For Stuff there’s a whole cast of characters to unlock in your rebuild effort of Quahog!  These overview posts are designed to give you a quick breakdown of the characters, how you unlock them & their tasks so you can play TQFS more efficiently!

Of course there will be those players who don’t want to know the details of unlocking the characters so for that reason we’ll post all of the details below the fold.  So if you don’t like to know what’s going on before you play don’t click read more…CAUTION SPOILERS AHEAD

In this edition we’re going to talk about a character that’s been in the game since it’s start, Brian Griffin.  Brian is one of the two characters you’ll unlock in the Civic Center District.  He’s also the only character that can clear the Bulls out of your game.  So now let’s take a look at Brian and his tasks….

To Boldly Go Where No Peter Has Gone Before??

Posted on March 10, 2015 by | 189 comments

Hey there Minions.

I know you all are “patiently” (HAHAHAHAHAH!) waiting for something to come along to break apart the monotony of what this Fine Arts District has brought. No worries, as I have been trying to tell you all… it is the “calm before the storm”.  What on earth am I talking about? Well… lemme just put this lil icon here and let the NERD FREAK OUTS BEGIN!!! 😛Star Trek Peter Icon

Star Trek Peter

But seriously, this is an icon that appeared with no warning… no info… and nothing to verify just when/if this is gonna happen. All I can say is THIS Geeky Nerd Girl is TOTALLY FREAKING THE FRAK OUT!!! Just sayin.

So to let you all join in my Bunny Insanity in the Asylum, I thought it would be fun to step OUTSIDE the norm and have a lil speculation fun. Go grab your Lirpa, get some of the “fight music” cued up, and let’s get this koon-ut-kal-if-fee started!!

~Bunny

UPDATE: Just a warning as I see this spreading. I saw this icon after an iOS/Apple update NOT a TinyCo one was forced on my device. Once back my Family Guy Updated to a 1.7 version. (Other apps did too.) Since then I’m not able to get back in the game now on that iOS device (Android I can still get in fine). The App is no longer in the App Market. And if I try to pull it from my purchases on the cloud… I just get Consuela “Can’t Connect”. I’ve reported it. Feel free to email them too help@tinyco.com

 

UPDATE 3-11: Here are a few links from around on the iOS issue currently going on. My suggestion is to turn OFF any auto App Market updates (if you can) and avoid any changes to your Family Guy App at all costs. Stay on the 1.6.8 version. Do NOT try to find or force the 1.7 Version or your game will not work. 

FYI… TinyCo is well aware of the issue and doing all they can, unfortunately this is NOT anything to do with them. It is ALL on iOS. So all they can do is wait like the rest of us for the App Market to come back… THEN they can make sure the Family Guy App is working as it should be.
