Just saw it-- 4 different color birds-- 85/20/25/30-- I'm tired just thinking about unlocking all those birds. I may skip this one.  |

You have to spend all your time and money on this money pit. I'll hold your hand this as we skip through the fields throwing money in the air the air to flush out the birds. |

I've already determined that this is` impossible. There's 5 days for this event. We need 30 of the green bird (or whatever the 4th one is). Those are 12 hour tasks. 3 people can get those. 6 a day x 5 days is exactly 30. Go longer than 12 hours once and you'll miss out. Sorry Charlie. That's assuming you get the drop every time. Unlike the first one that is "always", this one is "common". So you are bound not to get it a few times.
Plus some of us assigned 24 hour tasks on these characters before the content launched. So I'm already a day behind since Herbert and Mort are on 24s. Chris is needed for the storyline as well (who is also on a 24).
We also need 20 rares over 5 days which doesn't seem likely either. Those are 8 hour tasks so assuming perfect days you get 9 chances out of 45 straight attempts. I know there's a building as well, but I need to see how long the timer is on this one. I imagine it is 8 hours.

Squeeze their players in the beginning, making some of them panic and hopefully spend clams to finish, people will complain, then towards the end they'll lessen the requirements or make it easier in some way to complete so they can claim to "listen to their customers". It happens every time without fail, no matter if it's a skin, mini event or major month long event. |

I don't even know why I bother to unlock these skins; Peter has soooo many of them already, we'll forget about this one when another skin of his comes along. |

There's another skin get out of the way  Where is it got to have all the crap the new crap they got, new crap helps me forget about all the old crap tinyco forgot about. So far I have a 1lb bucket with 10lb of crap on it, doesn't look pretty.  |

I just counted and this will be his 19th skin.  I don't know why I bother either. For me its just become habit to get them. |

Day 1 player here-- I guess we're completist, that's why. Although my streak of skins has been broken when I missed out on Borg Consuela as I didn't want to bother with it in the premium mystery box. So I guess, now that the streak is broken, it won't be a big deal anymore if I miss this one as well. Anime Peter is my favorite skin for Peter. |

I guess my favorite would have to be Pee Pants Peter. |

And like clockwork TinyCo made a change. They added Peter's 6hr overeat task to help with the green birds.

Still over a day behind since I started late, plus didn't play a lot this weekend as it was Mother's Day (wife was a first time mom too!). So I only have 2 of the rares, 1 from the autodrop of the building and collected 1 of the like half dozen times using those tasks. Don't think I can swing 18 rares over 3 days. Will be the first "free" skin for me to miss. Only missed Stewies (Steriod)/Brians (NYE) /Megs (Klingon) premium costumes. Got everything else. Does everyone have Fat Lois? If I remember right, that was in the Thanksgiving mystery box (unless it was Forklift Peter). |

Not sure why, but here's my progress:
77/85 Yellow (always)
2/20 blue (rare)
11/25 purple (uncommon)
7/30 green (common)
As you can see here, I won't have enough blue or green to get the costume over 3 days.

Going to be close getting all the birds by Thursday-- got all 85 yellow birds, but 11, 11 and 10 on the others. i doubt I'll get them all by Thursday. |
