Hey Chrisp530, How do you get the Flanders Santa? Does it happen when you finish the other quests first? I've just been having him ride the kids around on the snowmobile. Do I need to leave him free for a bit? Thanks, B It's the third community prize.

Anyone know if the Frink's and Volcano Xmas lights are on that wheel thingy, as well? I didn't have them last year and I'd rather not spend the donuts if I don't have to. Thanks +1 Yes +1 If you didn't have them already you can get them there. I've gotten the following Christmas decorations from the wheel for: Volcano lair Frinks lab Muntz house Skinner house Krabapple Apt. Hey very cool!! Thanks! I didn't have donuts for such purchases this time last year, so those are the only 2 building's lights I don't have in my main town... We'll see if the wheel is as good to me as it has been to you...

The idea of sending all of Springfield to do the 12 person tasks is phenomenal. I mean, I get like 1500 gift cards for each of those tasks (and there are 4 or 5 of them). Here is at Moe's Task

I wish Moe would trigger his part of the quest line You could try sending him on a 1 hour task. And when it's finished, it might/should trigger. This has worked for me before.

Tara, while some of the residents will "shop" there during the quests, they do not necessarily need to go there

Chrisp530 - Ultimate Gift Card Trick. I know we have talked about sending all your characters rather than just 12 to maximize the gift card intake. But, there is a special trick for Quest Line Part18 , as that quest has Homer and Lisa hiding in Bart's Treehouse for 24 hours and the rest of your characters (except Krusty) searching for them for only 8 hours. If you can time it right you can set all your characters for 8 hours, and keep resending them for 8 hours, thus collecting all those gift cards, until you click on Homer/Lisa in Bart's Treehouse. I have just tried this and it worked for my second set of 8 hours. I would have to assume that you could keep exploiting this until you take Homer/Lisa off their 24 hour task

In theory yes. I would think this will work as long as you don't tap the tree house. I moved my tree house into an open area to avoid tapping. I am not sure if this really makes a lot of sense as I hit 30k gift cards last night and I only need one more prize on the wheel, but I will go for a while just for fun

I'm on Part 11 of the Christmas quests and everyone is free but Homer isn't triggering anything, also when I click on Moe's Tavern nothing happens besides the shotgun noise, nothing pops up.. I tried restarting, making Homer do a random task then waiting but still nothing. Any suggestions about what I should do?

Do you have any random tasks that have popped up? Once in awhile these get in the way of a trigger. Usually when I get rid of that and then free up my characters again, it'll work. You could also try storing Moe's and bringing Moe's out of inventory. Maybe that will trigger it. Clicking on Moe's won't help the task trigger.

The Great Donut Caper 1. 22nd Dec – Make Homer Shop for Holiday Donuts (Homer triggers) 2. 23rd Dec – Make Homer Search Shops for Holiday Donuts (Homer triggers) 3. 24th Dec – Grumple becomes available 4. 25th Dec – Christmas Bonus Payout a. A small quest activates which will award everyone DOUBLE pay outs for gift bags and gift cards. b. Oh, to celebrate, a FREE reindeer has been put into your inventory.

This is happening to me as well; were you able to trigger the drink at moe's task? What did you do? Thanks!

I can't get part 15 of the main quest to trigger. Does anyone know a way to fix this?

What I did with the 12 people task is I sent 11 people first for the task, ideally to the same shop/restaurant. A few moments later I sent the rest of the SF to the same task. As I timed the first 11 people exactly when they finish their task, as they are done, I could send them again for the same task. So I got all SF did the task, plus extra 11. Not sure if my explanation makes sense, but it works for me, especially when we have so many 12 people tasks, we could earn the gift cards easily.
