Springfield Over the Rainbow

Springfield Over the Rainbow Pt. 1

After the user logs in on June 3rd: We've never had a Pride Month in Springfield. I think it's about time we did! Um... how about a Pride Day? I knew it -- you don't really support Pride. I'm a politician -- I support everything. But if it's a day, we can make it a government holiday. Those dozens of days off a year are the reason I got into public service. But Pride deserves a month, not a day. Hmm... maybe I could use it as an excuse to have a month of half-days. Task: Place Pride Decorations [x3] Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Over the Rainbow Pt. 2

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Aunt Patty, I came up with a bunch of decoration ideas for Pride Month! Pink triangles and rainbows, honey. No need to reinvent the wheel. I represent Mr. O'Reilly the Leprechaun. I have here a court order demanding you cease and desist from using triangles, rainbows, or any other symbol as a decoration. No more copying me lucky trademarks! But your lucky symbol is the clover. And the rights to all symbols “inspired by or in any aspect similar to” that symbol, according to the Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Please, Mr. Leprechaun. It's for a good cause -- Pride! Well, I suppose I am a proud Irishman. So OK. But no symbols on merchandise! Task: Make Lisa Advertise Pride Month on the Internet (12h, Simpson Home) Now we just need a venue for the party. How about my place, the YMCA? It's fun to stay there! I don't know, sounds sketchy... What if I told you you could have a good meal there? And get yourself clean? I DO like to be clean. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Over the Rainbow Pt. 3

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Pride month is almost here! Aren't you excited? Excited for it to be over! Really? Why? Haven't you seen Springface? Every special interest group has put up a page demanding their own month, too! Springface is so 2014. All my friends now use Instaspring. But I'll check out Springface... if I can remember my password. Task: Make Lisa Check Out Springface (4h, Simpson Home) On job start: Why Pride Month? We skipped right past Black History Month... and on the fiftieth anniversary of the Selma march! How about Smoker's Month... for the fiftieth anniversary of Selma's lungs turning black. I want to see Women's History Month. Followed by Mother's Month! And Jewish American Month! Passover, Yom Kippur and all of those Sabbaths aren't enough! National Hip Replacement Month! Better yet, National Hip Replacement Month! Don't forget Black Music Month. That's right, we get two months! And while we're at it, why does everyone always ignore Stalker's Awareness Month? It's a real thing. Look it up. I am … and you're right. On job end: Over 400 groups are wrestling over a measly 12 months. 11 months actually. God pretty much owns December. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Over the Rainbow Pt. 4

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: Lisa, I'm afraid we'll have to cancel Pride Month. The other groups all want a month too. It'll be decades of months! Why not just have one month for everyone? Like Springfield Diversity Month? So make everyone think they're special by treating them all the same? You're a political genius! Task: Make Lisa Campaign for Diversity Month (12h, Simpson Home) Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Over the Rainbow Pt. 5

After tapping on Lisa's exclamation mark: I hope my suggestion of Diversity Month won't upset the LGBT community. I think I speak for most by saying I support all causes for Pride. Oh really, Smithers? What are you so proud about? Um... just, you know... go diversity! Yes, like the diversity between my salary and everyone else's! Task: Reach Level 11 and Build the Cooling Towers Task: Make Burns Celebrate Diversity (12h, Control Building) Task: Make Springfield's Unique Citizens Celebrate [x8] (2h, Simpson Home) If the user has Smithers: Task: Make Smithers Celebrate Diversity (12h, Control Building) Only one thing could make this celebration better: Duff Beer, official beer of Diversity Month! Seriously? You're really gonna use Diversity Month as a marketing opportunity? Smithers, head back to the office and start working on the "3 kilowatts for the price of 2" Diversity Month Special. My idealism has officially been destroyed. Only one thing could make this moment better: Duff beer, official beer of having your idealism destroyed! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Springfield Over the Rainbow Pt. 6

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark: What reason do I have to celebrate Diversity Month? I'm just an average, normal American. Surely you jest. You have one of the most diverse collections of lifestyle-related health problems I've ever seen! Woo hoo! To further encourage diversity, I will now chug a six-pack. Task: Make Homer Celebrate His Pride (2h) Task: Make Springfielders Join the Continuing Festivities [x8] (2h, Simpson Home) Quest reward: 100 and 10

Premium Gameplay

Gil Deal

After tapping Gil's Ajax Steel Mill mark: Gil Gunderson, real estate agent, at your service! You're my realtor? The realtors on reality shows are all hot gay men. I may not be hot, or gay, or licensed as a realtor, but I've got a deal on a steel mill that's so hot you're gonna need tongs! A discount steel mill? What's the catch? Wood paneling and shag carpet. It was done in the 70s. What wasn't?

Offer Declined

Dang it, that commission check was gonna pay my next month's rent! Looks like instead of selling the steel mill, I'm gonna be squatting there… Not alone, you're not! *gulp*

Offer Accepted

A steel mill? D’oh! I thought they were gonna put a Super Mega Krusty Burger there! Praise the heavens, this steel mill is a miracle from above! Technically everything in this town is -- you know, Sky Finger and all -- but what good is it to you? Now I can buy steel direct from the factory, so I can finally afford to build that 200-foot-high Virgin Mary on my front yard! That better not be a purchasable item.

Mo-thusiasm

Mo-thusiasm Pt. 1

After tapping on Roscoe's exclamation mark: Homer, this steel mill's turned out to be a real fixer-upper! To pay for the renovations, I'm going to use the space at night as a gay dance bar for moustached men: “The Anvil.” Heh heh, let's see Flanders try to spin this as a miracle! Does this Flanders guy perchance have a moustache? I need to hire some go-go dancers. Then let's go-go meet him! Task: Make Roscoe Chat with Flanders (8h, Flanders Home, Ned) On job start: Flanders, your happy days are over. Get ready to be like the rest of us! On job end: Wow, Homer, two miracles in one day. First the steel mill, and then you introduce me to Roscoe! What the--? You LIKED meeting Roscoe? I gave him some renovation tips from my experience remodeling my baptistery. Helped me meet my monthly help-thy-neighbor quota. But didn't you get freaked out when he asked you to be a go-go dancer? He said I could wear khakis over the thong. How could I refuse? I'll be working Tuesdays and Thursdays -- stop by and say hi! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Mo-thusiasm Pt. 2

After tapping on Roscoe's exclamation mark: Hey Ned, mind if I ask you for some business advice? Sure, I love pain-free ways of superficially showing tolerance! So, if past experience is a guide, church-going males are an important potential customer base for my gay dance club. What's the best way to reach that audience? You know, many people don't realize the New Testament has a lot to say about New Media... Task: Make Ned Give Business Tips (12h, Flanders Home) Task: Make Roscoe Take Notes (12h, Flanders Home) Quest reward: 100 and 10

Mo-thusiasm Pt. 3

After tapping on Roscoe's exclamation mark: Welcome Ned, to the grand opening of The Anvil! Opening? Shouldn't you be closing? It's midnight. Apparently you're unaware that in the EDM-based male-dance-club subculture, things only really get going after midnight. Task: Make Springfielders Get Down at the Anvil [x10] (4h, Ajax Steel Mill) Task: Make Roscoe Play Hard (12h) On job start: I'm beginning to regret giving you all that advice. What, can't you handle this much scantily-clad stache? I'm perfectly comfortable in my stachehood. But it's after midnight on a Saturday, which means it's technically Sunday! This is sacreligious! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Dance Off

Requires: Level 25, Smithers After tapping on Roscoe's exclamation mark: Sorry about the long line to get in, but I need to make the place seem exclusive. Anybody have enough stache to challenge me to a waiting line dance-off? Duffman has free beer for the winner! And free glow sticks for anyone who wants to look like an idiot! I'm always up for a competition to erase my childhood memories of athletic ineptitude. Challenge accepted! System Message New permanent jobs at the Ajax Steel Mill available for Roscoe, Smithers, and Duffman! 300px Task: Make Roscoe Dance Outside the Steel Mill (5h, Ajax Steel Mill) Task: Make Smithers Dance Outside the Steel Mill (5h, Ajax Steel Mill) If the user has Duffman: Task: Make Duffman Dance Outside the Steel Mill (5h, Ajax Steel Mill) Quest reward: 100 and 10
