I just discovered you can send up to 4 characters to capture a monster. The slots with the curtains are not locked. You get 50 event currency for every slot, so it's the same to send 4 on one monster or to 4 monsters each one. I'll see in 4 hours if this increases the speed to capture Kearneymon as it's needed for the questline. Note that some of the characters only earn 1/2 cleansing credits, whilst others earn a full credit Lisa, Milhouse and Bart earn half a cleansing credit, and Angelica and Martin earn a full credit...... |

Well, I think this is it for me.
Yet another three-part TSTO "event", that it a carbon copy of every other event during the past two (?) years.
I can't even fake any enthusiasm...
Remember the first Halloween event? Zombies...special event currency...creating general mayhem in your neighbors' towns...
Devil Flanders...the Bad Dream House...and a quest-line that was humorous and allowed you to finish the event without grinding for pointless craftable garbage you don't even want.
I remember when TSTO was fun – when I actually enjoyed checking in at all times during the day.
But, holy cripes... The so-called "events" over the past couple of years are just chores to get through. Do people actually enjoy these things? I'd really be surprised if they do.
I'll likely check in to these forums from time to time to see what's going on, but I've already deleted TSTO from my phone and tablet. I just cannot bring myself to endure another one of the TSTO grind-athons for a bunch of junk I don't want.
I'd been hoping this year's Halloween event would have been different. (At least I have memories of the first two Halloween events. Thoese were the days...)

Mine will be wholly captured in 30 mins once I realized I could send them all instead of spread out. |

Once you do all the DARK mana you then do the same process with LIGHT mana. Once that is done the beast generates event and crafting currency plus a random prize.
So focus on complete one beast at a time for best results.

Once again, all these characters and we only use 4 or 5 to do tasks.
Why aren't Witch Marge and other characters that have Halloween skins being used?
It's like EA is doing their best to find the laziest people they can to develop story lines and tasks.

Wiki probably has them up now though. |

Is Angelica Button worth it? She helps in these beast battle things, but I can’t figure out if I’ll care about spending 150 donuts on her + building in the long run...

It's like EA is doing their best to find the laziest people they can to develop story lines and tasks. Seriously...this is driving me nuts. Are there more than 5 (if you buy Angelica Button) people that can go hunting the monsters? 5? Really? How many more have costumes? It couldn't have been that hard to give Witch Marge the same animations...or ANY of the other kids... |

Yeah, it was at the end of the season premiere as well. It's a reminder from the writers, animators and the general team surrounding the Simpsons to not forget about Puerto Rico. It's 100% a political statement. |

Some might see it as a political statement.
Other might see it as a reminder that millions of Americans are without power, fresh water, nor basic infrastructure that everyone automatically takes for granted.

It's like EA is doing their best to find the laziest people they can to develop story lines and tasks. "laziest people" You mean like re-using the same crap craftables from previous events that we already have in storage as they are crap and are only there to take up the decoration count? On the plus side, I think the positives about this event (including items for purchase by way of dohnuts) although this first one I do appreciate was just before the event however, might as well be part of the event, for those still interested in the Monorail, was the new monorail station (I have been wanting a new station for ages). Whilst it does seem to be a Harry Potter rip-off styled event, some of the early buildings we got for free were quite nice, ie the Magic School, that looks like someone has paid abit of attention to this. The free wizard costumes for Bart and Lisa are ok too. Although it does seem like everyone at EA are taking lazy pills. Same dodgy structure for events, most of the craftables are things we already have from other events, so theres only a few new items, basically new events seem to be quite easy for EA these days as most of the content is already done, all they have to do is add a couple of new items and rehash crap from previous events, shame EA shame |

I've just gone though each Treehouse of Terror from series 1-10, and I think we have everything from them. So I guess there's nothing else good for us to collect.

I was expecting more items to go with the new train station. Maybe in part 2 or 3? Otherwise I'm just happy I got the old game resolution and ability to pan out much farther with this last patch update. I've really been missing it since the vast majority of my Springfield was laid out when I could see whole sections at a time.  Anyone else able to pan out this far? |
