Summer Fun & Games

After completing 200th update!: Aw, I'm missing my favorite summer activities: the rallies, the ribbon cuttings, the close distance affairs... At least we have summer sports to look forward to. And this just in, the 2020 International Summer Games have been canceled due to health concerns. In other news, I will continue to broadcast from my closet for the foreseeable future. If I offer Springfield to host the Summer Games, my popularity will skyrocket! The Summer Games, here?! But Springfield's a dump! A dump with four taxpayer-funded NFL stadiums. Task: Make Quimby Bring the Summer Games to Springfield (1h, Town Hall or Brown House) So, er, uh, we have a bunch of stadiums — just no parking structures, concessions, public transportation, or space to house the world's countries. If we made it work in Athens, we can make it work anywhere. Quest reward: 100 and 10

Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast

Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 1

After completing Summer Fun & Games: See? Springfield's not so bad... This city couldn't host a bar mitzvah, let alone an international sporting event! Oh, it's just a little messy... These streets are littered with stray cats and Mardi Gras beads! My cats! My beads! You — Sea Captain Guy! Shanghai a crew of sailors and scrub Springfield from port to starboard. Arr, I was about to sail away and ride out the end times...but, sure. And you — Comic Book Guy! Gather your nerds and restore Springfield to "mint condition". Nerds assemble! Well, don't get too close. Task: Collect Cheap Trophies [x105] Task: Make Homer Lounge While Others Clean (4h, Simpson House or Brown House) Task: Make Springfielders Scrub and Polish Streets [x5] (4h, Businesses, Shops, Homes or Brown House) Task: Make Children Wash Windows [x5] (4h, Businesses, Shops, Homes or Brown House) Pretty clean, but there's something missing that all international sporting events require...a country's worth of small children dancing in unison. *pointing* You kids — dance! Okay! But which dance? Since school went online, we've all learned like three hundred TikTok dances! Hmm, show me a "Renegade" and then transition to a "Savage". *TikTok dancing noises* Quest reward: 100 and 10

Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 2

After completing Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 1: It seems as if the International Summer Games will be missing the "international" as every world government is declining to come to Springfield. Springfield? Hard pass. ¡Ay! ¡No! Our health experts are keen on us maintaining our longstanding policy of "Springfield-Distancing". The moment you secure housing for the fencing teams, they pull the rug out from under you. Well, it's been real, Springfield. Wait, we don't need the rest of the world! America always wins the Summer Games anyway. We'll make it USA versus USA! U-S-A! U-S-A! We'll be the host city of the most patriotic sporting competition ever! Well, at least the most patriotic for us. Not so fast, Freedom Fries! Litovia is here to compete! Litovia 'til I die! Litovia's not a country. Do you even have a constitution? Article one: punch people who ask questions. *punches Chairman* I commend your spirit. You can compete. Task: Collect Cheap Trophies [x140] Task: Make Homer Rally Springfielders Against Litovians (6h, Town Hall, Simpson House or Brown House) Task: Make Springfielders Volunteer to Compete in Games [x5] (4h, Town Hall, Simpson House or Brown House) I'm in! The U-S of A ain't rolling over for a bunch of...what are youse? Europeans? Aren't we all? *coughs* I mean, we're Litovians and we're going to destroy you like the third-rate country you so desperately want to become! America may not be the superpower the world turns to anymore, but in terms of sports... Remember the Titans! We are Marshall! Miracle on Ice! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 3

After completing Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 2: It's been a challenge coming up with events that allow the competitors to stay a safe distance apart. It doesn't matter what the events are, as long as we beat those pesky Litovians. Well, so far the Litovians have the edge in singles tennis, timed-solitaire, and lawn darts. I'm a statistic! Our All-Springfield American team isn't winning??? Well, last place is still the silver trophy. We need to figure out what things only Springfielders are better at. Pre-existing conditions? Task: Collect Cheap Trophies [x175] Task: Make Homer Beat Litovians in Sports Mascot Dance Off (4h, Duff Center Arena, Springfield Coliseum, Town Hall or Brown House) If the user has Barney: Task: Make Barney Lose to Litovians in Bowling (4h, Bowlarama, Duff Center Arena, Springfield Coliseum or Brown House) Task: Make Flanders Beat Litovians in Horseshoes (4h, Duff Center Arena, Springfield Coliseum, Town Hall or Brown House) Well, we were making up good ground on the Litovians until Barney lost in the bowling finals. But Barney throws strikes for breakfast! Those Litovians put crème de menthe in my bowling bag. Who told them mint-flavored alcohol is my kryptonite? Another great victory for Litovia. So Lit! By Abraham Lincoln's Lincoln Logs, I will destroy these Litovians! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 4

After completing Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 3: We are now in the final stretch of the games: cornhole, Dance Dance Revolution, and lotto scratchers. The whole world is watching — it was either this or sitting through that Michael Jordan "documentary" for the 4th time. We Springfielders have to be like Mike and destroy the Litovians like he destroyed Karl Malone, Charles Barkley, some guy named Clyde, Isiah Thomas, and that poisoned pizza. I don't know, these Litovians are tough competitors. They keep bullying all the refs. My best one quit after they gave him a "swirly". Hmm, swirlies... I'm going to look into these so-called Litovians. Something's off about them... Task: Collect Cheap Trophies [x210] Task: Make Lisa Investigate the Litovians (4h, Businesses or Brown House) Task: Make Moe Beat the Litovians in Rock, Paper, Scissors (2h, Moe's Tavern or Brown House) Task: Make Homer Beat the Litovians at Cornhole (2h, Cletus's Farm, Duff Center Arena, Springfield Coliseum, Town Hall or Brown House) If the user has Carl: Task: Make Carl Beat the Litovians in Lotto Scratchers (1h, Kwik-E-Mart, Moe's Tavern, Town Hall or Brown House) Woohoo! I cornholed the Litovians! Scissors as a first move? Stupid Litovians. Rock is the American way! *holding lotto ticket* I get to keep the million dollars! I'm moving back to Iceland! U-S-A! U-S-A! ICE-LAND! ICE-LAND! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 5

After completing Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 4: It all comes down to this, sports fans! The gold trophy count between Litovia and the USA is tied at fifteen apiece... The final event of Springfield-Rules Tetherball will separate glorious gold from sorrowful silver! Okay boy, you're representing us on the world stage. Don't lose and make America look any dumber. Relax! I got this. No way these weirdo Litovians know "Springfield Rules". Task: Collect Cheap Trophies [x210] If the user has Bart: Task: Make Bart Lose to the Litovians at Tetherball (4h, Springfield Elementary, Duff Center Arena, Springfield Coliseum, Town Hall or Brown House) Task: Make Homer Watch Bart Lose at Tetherball (4h, Springfield Elementary, Duff Center Arena, Springfield Coliseum, Town Hall or Brown House) NOOOOO! Bart! How could you lose?! That was illegal! You double-hit! "Double-hits" are allowed if following a "triple-half-spinny". You know about triple-half-spinnies? That's impossible! Who taught you "Springfield Rules"?! No one taught them! They're Springfielders! That's Jimbo — and that one is Nelson! The bullies moved to Litovia? There's no such thing as Litovia. It's made up! The integrity of this two-country international competition is ruined! You Litovians betrayed our country? And for what? Glory? Cheap trophies? Your own Wikipedia page? It was a political protest. America sucks! Yeah, Americans used to be LIT! Now we just sit around day-trading on Robinhood. True...however, since the Litovian team is not actually from the made-up place of Litovia...they are disqualified! The United States wins! You're getting a swirly! *flushes toilet* This place IS worse than Athens! I declare this the end of the International Summer Games! Our Eternal Tire Fire Flame can now be extinguished! U-S-A! U-S-A! Quest reward: 100 and 10

Game But Not Forgotten

After completing Summer Sportin', Had Me a Blast Pt. 5: Well, the Summer Games turned out to be a rousing success! Maybe for you. I can't wait to leave this vile place. Er-uh...that's not how things work around here. Once you're unlocked you're here forever. Well, at least give me a job — a role in your administration as a reward for making the Games a success. Oh don't worry, I have the perfect job for you. Task: Make Homer Celebrate (2h, Town Hall, Simpson House or Brown House) Become your city street sweeper? Times are tough, and you really did a good job cleaning this place up. Well, try cleaning this up! Here's your bill for hosting the games. That's a lot of zeroes! Reopen the airport — I've got to get out of here! You can sail away from the apocalypse with me. Also, debts can't be collected on international waters. Quest reward: 200 and 20
