Gameplay

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 1

After tapping on Patty's exclamation mark
Patty Why the frown, Selma?
Patty This better be because we were ousted from the MacGyver Fan Club for indecency, and not man problems again!
Selma My boyfriend got an electrolarynx and now says he's too good for me.
Patty For God's sake, Selma – there're plenty of handsome men in the sea.
Patty Desperate, lonely, ugly, handsome men.
Selma Look at the facts, Patty. We're past 44 and still alone.
Selma Even my green card marriage fell apart – how am I supposed to compete with Haiti?
Patty I have a feeling 45 will take us to a whole new level.
Patty And that level is rock bottom, with hunks like Artie Ziff.
Selma You mean the guy who's crazy about Marge?
Patty A desperation only a loving sister can take advantage of.
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 1" which is to "Build ZiffCorp Sign".

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 2

After tapping on Marge's exclamation mark
Marge Oh no... Artie!
Marge Don't take this the wrong way...
Marge ...but you're the last person I ever wanted to see again.
Artie Ziff If I had a nickel every time someone said that to me, I'd still be rich!
Artie Ziff But don't worry your corn cob shaped head, I'm just here for a helping hand...
Artie Ziff ...in marriage?
Artie Ziff Kidding!
Artie Ziff Just a helping hand. No funny business...
Artie Ziff ...unless you like a man who's funny.
Artie Ziff Kidding again!
Artie Ziff Just the help.
Homer Maybe I can help you.
Marge Homer! Really?
Homer It's so rare to help someone worse off than me.
Homer I'm always the bottom left of New York Magazine's Approval Matrix.
Homer Every week!
Artie Ziff I humbly accept your offer of help, Homer. You clearly are the bigger man.
Homer I offer you help and you insult my weight. How dare you!
Lisa He means that as a compliment, Dad.
Homer In that case, let's do the manliest thing I know -
Homer Destroy our livers!
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 2" which is to "Make Homer Drink at Moe's", "Make Moe Serve Drinks", and "Make Artie Have a Glass of Soy Milk at Moe's" It takes 8 hours.

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 3

After tapping on Homer's exclamation mark
Homer Now that you have some Liquid Courage, and I've had some alcohol, let's find you a date!
Homer First, you'll need a wingman, one who is both uglier than you and less attractive.
Homer Lucky for us, we have Moe.
Moe I know it, but it still hurts.
Artie Ziff What exactly does being a wingman entail?
Moe For starters, I can help you collect intel on the prey...
Moe ...I mean victim...
Moe ...I mean woman...
Moe ...I mean object.
Moe Then you can use that information to manipulate her!
Artie Ziff And all this time I've been foolishly selling personal information to the government, when I could have been using it to get dates?
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 3" which is to "Make Moe Spy on Midge" and "Make Artie Spy on Everyone" It takes 12 hours.

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 4

After tapping on Artie Ziff's exclamation mark

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Marge, it is my professional opinion as an amateur opinion giver that everything wrong in your life is because of that sub-human drunk Homer Simpson!
Marge My husband offered to help you and this is how you repay him?

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

This is new Springfield!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

It's a vast multi-dimensional universe where the currency is trans-fat based. Everything's changing!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Give me a chance, Marge, and I can vastly improve your quality of life!
Marge Ok Artie, what do you propose?

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Margery Bouvier! I thought you'd never ask!
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 4" which is to "Make Artie Propose to Marge" It takes 24 hours.
Marge Artie, no means no.
Marge I wish you would respect me when I say that.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Sometimes the most respectful thing you can do is ignore a woman's wishes and tell her what she really wants.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

You're looking at the new Artie! One that looks, talks, and acts like the old one.
Marge If you think you're a better man, Artie, don't prove it to me – prove it to yourself!

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 5

After tapping on Artie Ziff's exclamation mark

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Marge is playing hard to get once again!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

But if I know Marge, and for some reason I believe I do, the one thing that impresses her above all else is...

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

MONEY!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Time to reclaim my crown as the most successful, narcissistic idiot in Springfield's business universe.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Watch out, Krusty!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

And Mr. Burns!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

And Duffman!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

And Kent Brockman!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Geez, I didn't realize there were so many rich idiots in--
Moe Keep your monologue to yourself, buddy. This bar is here to forget your problems, not solve them.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Sorry Moe, I have this bad habit of thinking out loud. I suppose I can't quite get enough of the delightful sound of my own voice.
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 5" which is to "Make Artie Form Business Connections" It takes 12 hours.

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 6

After tapping on Artie Ziff's exclamation mark

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Moe, I came to you first with an exciting business opportunity.
Moe The last time I fell for that line I bought an Indian graveyard.
Moe Err, I mean, an empty plot of land.

Template:Tapped Out Nativeamericanspirit Icon

You said you would honor our spirit, Moe.
Moe And you believed me, Chief Gullible Panther.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Moe, you've proven yourself a man with loose morals and that's exactly who I want to be in business with.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Buy some shares of ZiffCorp and don't ask too many questions, and I'll make you rich beyond your wildest dreams.
Moe I don't know – I've got some pretty wild dreams.
Moe In one, I got wheels for feet.
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 6" which is to "Make Springfielders Invest in ZiffCorp (x10)" It takes 4 hours.
Lenny Hey, Carl, do you think we made a mistake investing our life savings into this stock?
Carl No, Artie said he was coming to us first. And we can trust him -- he was wearing a suit.

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 7

After tapping on Lenny's exclamation mark
Carl ZiffCorp was ranked the number one stock to buy in 2014 by Hickory Dickory Stock, the magazine for child economists.
Carl If it's good enough for America's youth, then it's good enough for me.
Lenny It's logic like that that makes me feel better about investing so much in a company I know so little about.
Carl And here's another article on ZiffCorp in Ferdinand the Bull Market, the magazine for child bankers.
Carl Huh. Turns out ZiffCorp's borrowing our shares, short-selling them, and then repurchasing and returning them to us at a later date.
Lenny That seems a little shady and not to our benefit. Should we be worried?
Carl My financial advisor says there is nothing to be worried about. We'll be millionaires by nap time.
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 7" which is to Make Artie Short Sell ZiffCorp Stock" It takes 24 hours.
The Rich Texan Yeehaw! I just bought me a majority share of the hottest company in 'Murica! I feel like dancin'.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Please stop shooting your own feet! We're on the second floor.
The Rich Texan Well, how do you dance if you aren't shooting at your feet to make ‘em move?

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

In my culture, we sit down in chairs and make other people pick them up and dance for us.

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 8

After tapping on Artie Ziff's exclamation mark

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

I know how unorthodox it is to call a board of directors meeting in the middle of the streets, but I need to tell you all something and I wanted to do it in a place where I can easily escape.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

ZiffCorp is filing for bankruptcy.
Carl What about the articles in Mother Goose's ‘Lullabye and Sell' about ZiffCorp's massive profits? Was that all just a fantasy?

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

No, not a fantasy.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

A lie! That was a lie!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

I think it's technically called investor fraud.
Lenny But what about us?

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

You will lose all your investments.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

But don't worry, there's a silver lining...
Lenny Oh good, cause that all sounded really bad. What is it?

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

You didn't let me finish. A silver lining on my new tennis court.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Not quite regulation, but I love the way my ruby-crusted tennis balls clang off it.
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 8" which is to "Build Indoor Tennis Courts" and "Make Artie File for Bankruptcy". It takes 12 hours.
Marge Artie, you are absolutely the most unethical, sleazy example of a human being I have ever come across!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

You're right – I AM rich.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Now will you marry me, Marge?
Marge You just don't get it. I don't want to be with you, or even around you. Go home Artie.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

What could have possibly gone wrong?!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

I didn't listen to a word she said and ruined hundreds of people's lives.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

I should be swimming in Marges.

The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 9

After tapping on Judge Snyder's exclamation mark
Judge Snyder ...Insider trading, cooking the books, dangerously undercooked books, unauthorized exchanges, laundering money through numerous child-focused investment magazines.
Judge Snyder I don't know if there's a white collar crime you haven't committed, Mr. Ziff.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

White collar crimes are the good ones, right?
Judge Snyder Mr. Ziff, these are very serious accusations!
Judge Snyder A lot of people, including myself, have been financially crippled because of you! You've ruined lives!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

I don't suppose this ‘Get Out of Jail Free' card I have in my wallet is game transferrable?
Judge Snyder Jail? I don't think that's necessary. It's not like you shoplifted or were found with a minuscule amount of drugs.
Judge Snyder House arrest will do. And if you don't have a house, the court will appoint one for you.
Judge Snyder As for your failing business that ruined the community, its market cap just qualifies as too big to fail.
Judge Snyder I hereby order the town to bail out ZiffCorp and build it a fancy office building.
Judge Snyder Case dismissed!
The player receives "The Way I Wish We Was Pt. 9" which is to "Build ZiffCorp Office Building".
Lenny So ZiffCorp is back and will be publicly traded.
Lenny But I'll never be fooled by a man in a fancy suit again.
Lenny Hey! Nice suit, Carl, so are you thinking of buying back in?
Carl Are you crazy? I lost over three hundred thousand dollars!
Lenny Then I'm buying back in!
Carl What?! Why?
Lenny I said I wasn't going to listen to a man in a suit and you're a man in a suit.
Lenny Thanks for the not advice, Carl.

Burning the Midnight Oil

After tapping on Artie Ziff's exclamation mark
The Rich Texan You're a dirty cheat, Artie Ziff!
The Rich Texan I lost millions on your bum stock! I had to sell off 10% of my hat collection and 15% of my horse.

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

That's unfortunate, but as the expression goes -- hate the game, not the player.
The Rich Texan I live my life by one expression and one expression only -- I don't like expressions!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to burn some midnight oil if I plan to get my tennis serve back to millionaire status.
The Rich Texan Burn that midnight oil while you can. I will have my vengeance, and it will be as swift as it is shocking!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

For the record, I'm not going to meet you in any town squares at noon.
The Rich Texan Then my vengeance will be less swift than previously anticipated.
The player receives "Burning the Midnight Oil" which is to "Make Artie Practice his Tennis Serving Skills" and "Make The Rich Texan Raise the Price of Midnight Oil". It takes 1 and 12 hours.
The Rich Texan How's burning all that midnight oil treating ya, Artie?

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

Odd that you ask. I just tried to purchase some more and they said my card was declined.
The Rich Texan That's because I own all the midnight oil fields this side of the Middle East. And I raised the price 500 times!

Template:Tapped Out Artie Icon

How crude!
The Rich Texan And I raised the price of crude 1000 times!
The Rich Texan I believe your expression is, hate the game, not the player. Yee-haw!

You Got Your Schokolade in My Erdnussbutter Pt. 1

After tapping on Uter's exclamation mark
Lisa Welcome back, Uter!
Lisa So much has changed since you've been gone. Mostly the locations of things and that our currency is donuts now.

Uter No no, I must attend your American school system to get grade A American education, Principal Skinner!
Skinner Well, the Department of Education actually gave our grade A American education a D minus.
Skinner But no “learning” today, Uter.
