Just hit 26, I haven't fed the EA machine yet so I'm a little behind on buildings WRT level.

I'm about 33,000 XP away from hitting level 38. I did feed the EA machine, buying some donuts when they were offering an extra 30% during x-mas time. I'm slowly dwindling down my stash, getting some fun characters like Dr. Nick. The Rich Texan is just annoying with what he shouts.

I had fun creating a brown house ghetto. I have twelve of them right next to each other with some trees, and it's a good cash cow for cheap when you're just starting the game.

Most of the money I've given to EA is from gift cards ive received. I have spent maybe $25 of my own over the last year or so.

I picked up Blackguards while it was on sale. Seems like a pretty detailed turn based rpg.

Isn't there a way to check the amount of space available on your xbox360 and the size of the file you are downloading? Some guy on Twitter wanted to play gta5 but the file was too big. So he deleted all his saves - including 33 hours of Skyrim gameplay - and still didn't have enough space.

Yup. The game duplicated the Attend Super Bowl party task for everyone, too. I don't know if that was the design or just a quirk.

I've been seeing a series a issues with regards to the task clocks. Things are actually completing before their normal limits, and the push notifications appear before the actual task is complete. Notification goes off, I open the app, and there's still another 10-15 minutes before it's ready.

Am I the only one who can never remember which one is Gamespot and which one is Gamestop?

Since I usually only go to Gamespot, no. That and IGN.

Tapped Out has a Valentine's update out today.

Courtesy of r/tappedout: BEFORE YOU UPDATE...plant corn at Cletus' Farm. Then go ahead and install the update. The first mission will trigger involving Homer/Lisa planting roses at Cletus' Farm, and your corn will automatically finish. BOOM, $45000 and 9000 XP.

ETA: If for some reason this doesn't work or you already have a crop there, you can cancel a crop growing at Cletus' Farm by putting the farm into inventory, then taking it back out again.

Nice trick. So the first quest is 24 hrs and gives 50 hearts. Is it worth speeding it up (12 donuts) to get started on hearts?

I noticed one of the new items is a Whale for 300. Yikes. It does raise income/xp 7% but that breaks down to 42 donuts per 1%, so its not a good value.

The best value for donuts is the white picket fence. That said, I bought the stupid whale without doing the math. You can get multiple. I did not do that.
