List of Premium and "Event" characters

[indydude33]

As we wait for the Christmas update - or other updates in the future - a lot of folks struggle with when to "cut off" their characters from tasks. No one wants to have the character who starts a new update's events on a 24-hour task when the update hits.

I've noticed that updates always start with (and usually only involve) characters from the main game progression. In other words, premium characters and characters who were limited-time only from past special events aren't used in the updates because EA wants as many players as possible to be able to participate.

With that in mind, here is a list of Limited Time/Special Event and Premium characters. You can feel free to set these characters on 24-hour tasks and make them earn you some money while you wait for the update.

*Barney
*Drederick Tatum
*The Grumple
*Kang
*Kodos
*Kumiko
*Maude
*Miss Springfield
*Mr. Costington
*Rex Banner
*Shauna
*Suzanne the Witch
*Tom O'Flanagan
*Yes Guy

Premium Characters:
*Arnie Pye
*Blue Haired Lawyer
*Booberella
*Bumblebee Man

Use a ton of spin coins and keep as many fingers crossed as you can spare, see this thread for some general ranting about the Krusty Wheel of chance.

You forgot Mr Costigan.

The events almost always start with Lisa, Homer, Ned, Apu, or maybe Milhouse. This way even the newest players can participate. What sucks is they don't give event related tasks to the more recent characters for that same reason. Sort of a back handed FU to long term players.

A Bad Example thanks for reminding me of this. I haven't updated since Christmas started. I'll add Costington and the Grumple.

Since Yes Man isn't out yet I'm holding off on him. I know the spoilers say he has tasks but I want to verify it with my own eyes.
