    i was in here to see if it was just me it was driving mad, harder now to find characters who aren't doing anything than ever before,


    i really wish they'd add a button to find the next free character! :(

    Yep, the mist is annoying. I do like how all of the trees have lost their leaves (except for the lemon tree).

    Are you on android? If so clear your app data from the playstore app and force stop it. That's what I did!

    Looks like the issue I had with the game and UPC has been fixed with the new version! No more spinning donut! Yay!

    EDIT: God that fog is awful!

    Got the first prize the pumpkin house and spent approx 300 donuts on items!

    Yes I speed up the first task with 12 donuts.

    I also spent donuts on the sacred burial ground which is the second prize.

    I going to be visiting my friends on the active players list and leaving gremlins if I can. Only a few of my friends have goo under there name, so i guess people have not spent donuts on the first task.


    Busy playing at the moment! And I don't know if I will get around to updating the list as often!

    Regards,
    John.

    Very similar to Whacking Day it seems. Can't wait to start the task properly.

    Few things I noticed. Kang has two new tasks. One is 'Exchange long protein strings' which makes me think Kodos is going to be available with this update.

    Krustyland has a new 16 hour ride available although still not showing for me.

    New land available, one row down the bottom of the screen. I've a fair bit of cash saved so might invest after I see how the update will go cash wise.

    I guess it doesn't really kick off until you build the building? I sent everyone on 24h tasks once I started the build. I can't afford to waste donuts speeding things up, they are too hard to earn!

    Don't bother rushing the build! You still will be held up with your friends who haven't rushed it! Out of my 100 friends, I have only four that have ghost in there town to tap.

    On the friends visit, it's not like whacking day, where you could leave as many eggs as you wanted. You get to Haunt a number of buildings and you can leave gremlins (I think your limited on the number you can leave in any one town)!

    I don't think there is a need to buddy up or have a list like whacking day.
    With the in game feature of who visited your town, you can just return visit to whoever visit's you. The goo counter under people names on the friends list, will show up who's not active in your list by the weekend!

    I hate the way you effectively have to cheat (or spend bundles) to get a lot of decorations and buildings. I resolved not to cheat as it would be utterly pointless then having unlimited donuts, but it's a pain not having many donuts.

    A lot of the additional items appear to be premium? Guess that's kind of expected at this stage.

    I can only login once a day really so these social events don't suit an unsocial tapper like myself!

    I love your pumpkin design, Corkie!

    I take it we shouldn't tap gremlins in our towns because they help our friends? Am I interpreting that right?

    The pumpkin idea was stolen from here, so can not take the credit for it.

    I think the longer the gremlins are left running around is better for your friends, because they have up to 4 hours to collect goo. I don't know what happens to them then. Hitting them as soon as possible just benefits yourself.

    Does everything kick in to effect when you have the Fortune Teller Shop built?

    Yes, the game gradually introduces you to the different aspects of the event!

    You can only haunt house or leaving gremlins in towns, that have activated the Halloween event by having the Fortune Teller Shop built!
