Looking at the all the content over at WikiSimpsons, it looks like we're getting a good amount of characters (12+3 skins) and not a ton of buildings. That's good since the last few updates, it seems like we got a ton of buildings and not a lot of land to put it in.

Seems like neighbor visits are important in this event. Dropping and tapping the ones neighbors drop pay a decent amount.

But it seemed like the number of neighbors you could visit before the payout stopped was a lot fewer than the usual 30. I didn't count, but I don't think it could have been more than 15 for me. Does anybody know any different? (I was only visiting the neighbors who were live with the event yesterday, which was something like every 4th neighbor.)

You are not wrong.

The link for Homerpalooza needs to be added to the update list. I also hope they can add the grid for the new row later on, so roads can be added.

You are not wrong. Not only that, but I think that the lawyers we can drop in neighbors' towns (and vice versa) have a limited lifespan -- maybe even just 4 hours. So that if I drop lawyers in your town (which I just did) and you don't visit your town and find the lawyers within the time limit, you miss out entirely. And I do too, because I earn something when you clear them. I think this would be especially of concern with neighbors across the globe since our mid-day is their mid-night. EA does like to convolute things, don't they?

EA does like to convolute things, don't they? The payout stops after 10 visits. Lawyers disappear after 4 hours. The person that dropped them gets a notification that no one "assisted" them but still gets some payout. I'm not sure if the town they were dropped in gets anything. I might have to change up some neighbors for this event. Only have two visit so far.

It takes me forever to find these yahoos in my town or in a neighbor's town. I had no idea there was a time limit on lawyers, that's ridiculous. Now I'll have to spend forever scouring my town, not knowing if there are any there or if I've gotten them all. I dropped a bunch off in other people's towns ( 847.63 I dropped some off to you, too) but haven't had any notifications about it and it's been well over 4 hours. 10 visits and payouts stop is absolutely asinine. I usually have no idea what's going on until about day 3 of an event anyway, but this is too much. I still don't understand how to upgrade my jam musicians or how to unlock windows at Moe's or the Kwiki Mart. Whatever. Honestly I hope they keep it a grinding disaster like Whacking Day was. Good times.

Good times. I'm having the same problem as you. I can't find any of them in my town. I dropped some in yours yesterday and then again another 4 or 5 about 10 minutes ago. In addition to not finding them I'm also not producing very many. Upgrading performers happens when you make them perform. Click the trophy icon and then on the left scroll all the way down and you can see the status.

Good times. I miss the sneaky criminals they had for the first crime fighting event. And the Sideshow Bob clones. Those were characters that stood out from the crowd! Plus, our towns were sooooo much smaller then!

Me too! Now tapping in neighbors towns is almost pointless. So far I have just dropped the small amount of lawyers I've produced to the people here that have visited.

Yesterday I was dropping 3 lawyers per neighbor !!!!!! I figured they would be much more plentiful and/or available to buy! Now I'm parsing them out like rare jewels! I'd love EA to publish their rationale for any of these events. It would surely be fascinating in it's lack of logic.

Saw a nice pattern done on the ocean water during visits to my neighbors with rainbow crossing strips, since they don't go on water I wondered how.
Put rainbow crossing on squidport tiles, then remove tile, the crossings seem to float.

Visiting friends is really slow going this event. I'm trying to work my way through people who are playing the event so I can drop lawyers (also haven't seen one in my town despite notifications, even right after the notification). The groupies or whatever they're called are super hard to find, and I can't always find the stage to let them gather. Hopefully it speeds up when I start hiding inactive players and recognizing groupies.

I didn't even know we could tap groupies in neighbor's towns. Nor have I seen a lawyer.

Ah, did not know about the lawyers thing. Just went and dropped a bunch though I'm not sure anyone can actually find them in their towns. Sure as heck not going to look around for rock fans, that's just too tedious.

If you do to the crafting menu and tap the ticket prize to level up (make sure you have less tickets than the number) it will give you an option to "cancel" or "do it," click do it and it takes you to the fans.

Dr. Robert and Eisenhower both look like lawyers, I keep tapping them You can rush the jam sessions (24 mins and under) but not the Weird Al funding I have 9 characters for 8 jam slots currently and accidentally filled up using the 1 star people first. That meant one of my 2.5 star rockers had to sit out that session
