Gobble gobble buffet

[Olly1]

I'm not even sure about this one. 8 hour building? Hmm

[Nicky the Nose]

Looks pretty ugly, gonna be hard to hide that turkey, no pun intended

[AFed]

If it is a type A, then level 10 will be $285,000...roughly the equivalent of a level 2.5 PT. Anyone have info on the upgrade costs?

[KizbotBro]

What's the details on this? Not showing on my android yet. Gold building? How much?

[Coldjoey]

What's the details on this? Not showing on my android yet. Gold building? How much?
120 gold. Don't know about upgrades as have an upgrade going on already .

[Tomatoneverdie]

+1, don't think I want to look at that turkey every hour....

[Reznor]

It looks exactly the same as the Tavern / Trading Post buildings off of Kingdom Age, except with a turkey strapped to the roof.

Gobble Gobble Buffet is 5x5. Will update on upgrade costs soonest

Level 2 upgrade costs $83,500, takes 1 hour and triples payouts from $4180 every 8 to $12541 so appears to be type A

Level 3 upgrade is $139,445, takes 3 hours and pays $25081 every 8

Level 4 upgrade is $232,873, takes 6 hours and pays $41800 every 8

Level 5 upgrade is $388,898, takes 10 hours and pays $62701 every 8

Info through level 10 added on post #49 http://www.funzio.com/forum/showthread.php?42134-Gobble-gobble-buffet&p=495716&viewfull=1#post495716

[Nicky the Nose]

@ Sister Morphine any chance a tree might hide the turkey?

[TonySpaghetti]

Nope. Won't hide it.

[sister morphine]

@ Sister Morphine any chance a tree might hide the turkey?
lol, Nicky I've no idea as I don't use vegetation to conceal my levels; flaunt it baby!!

It's not that tall, so I dare say you could hide it behind sniper dens or similar

[Nicky the Nose]

Ok thank you

[Tomatoneverdie]

If you are buying one to be hidden behind a building, why bother?

Too bad the upgrades aren't free like the haunted mansion.

[Nicky the Nose]

Good point, I like the collectable part but its a ugly mutt

[kykboxr]

I was an idiot not to get two haunted mansions. One at L9 is more productive that 2 lofts at L4, granted I'm not picking up 24 times

[sister morphine]

Agreed. Mine's sitting at the front for now (should say you're allowed two of them)

It's on Sweet V's hood by the way as I've got a missile turret building on sis.

[Tomatoneverdie]

Good point, I like the collectable part but its a ugly mutt

Yeah, it's ugly + cost to upgrade, wait until Christmas, I bet they have one better looking collectible building. Certainly can't be worse than this one....

Hope my comment about it looks ugly doesn't bother you, it's just a personal opinion. If you like the bird, buy it and show it proudly on your hood!

[Nicky the Nose]

Was thinking this very idea, but since you posted it I will take your advice and pass on the turkey.

Doesn't phase me at all babe; I tend to agree that it's an ugly lash up of a KA building with a turkey glued on top - almost a last minute idea

[Nicky the Nose]

Nope. Won't hide it.

Didn't see your post till now, thanks for info

[Sasha54]

It looks like crap. I got 2 haunted mansions - they at least look good. I will hold out for an Xmas building

Plus being Canadian my Thanksgiving is over ......hope you all have a good one!

[kykboxr]

Looking forward to someone who can list the upgrade times and cheese

[Coladonato]

WTH!! I was only allowed to purchase one haunted mansion. A second would have done wonders for my decorations

[Tomatoneverdie]

WTH!! I was only allowed to purchase one haunted mansion. A second would have done wonders for my decorations

They made the 2nd one available for purchase a few days later....

[Dr. Dengus]

Halloween = 1 hr building (then skips, 3hr & 6hr types)
Thanksgiving = 8 hr building (skipping the 12hr and 18hr types)
Xmas = 24 hr building?

I sure hope so. Would take a 12 or 48hr as well.

[KemoKidd]

Can someone post a pic?

Don't get your hopes up...the Xmas building will probably be a replica of Jokim's trailer in Jacksonville. Yuck.

[Tomatoneverdie]

Don't get your hopes up...the Xmas building will probably be a replica of Jokim's trailer in Jacksonville. Yuck.

I was hoping for a house full of Christmas lights, animated decoration on the front yard, and a snowman with two sticks of carrots (placement of the carrot is up to your imagination)....

Lol, who am I kidding, I think it will be closer to what you described....

[Nicky the Nose]

If anyone would know trailer trash it would be Honey Boo Boo, let's hope your not right

[SinSir]

My suggestion would of been

Max 1 GG buffet per hood.
Price of building 500 gold
24 hour payout cycle.
Payout being 1 gold.
None upgradable.
Can be robbed by rivals, giving them the gold you could of collected.

Never going to happen but was a thought.

Payout in gold never. How does that make them money?

Now If It takes gold out of your pocket that might work.

[SinSir]

499 days after you purchased the GGB the turkey that lays the gold dies and it only pays out $1 per 48h unless you upgrade for 500 gold so it pays 1 gold every 24h again.

I'm just thinking like gree.

Lmao I was about to say the same thing. That is one ugly building gree is such a crappy company.

[daware]

Is there a way to calculate future upgrade costs and times, or does someone have to go through all of them and tell us?

[Sunsets]

I'm skipping this one for sure. Not only do I not have room, but this building is ugly as heck, and I prefer my 2 Haunted Mansions anyways - they're free to upgrade.

[Tomatoneverdie]

Hear hear, but I have only one. I love the look and the free upgrade!!

[TZora]

why can't they give some 24 or 48 hour building :(

[Ramshutu]

I don't actually mind this one, I got two. I don't think it's as ugly as some of the other buildings and putting them behind lofts or sniper dens would work nicely if your that bothered.

[Burgersvektor]

I think its great! Within 4h one Gobble is making as much as a lvl2 Loft, for my low lvl account that is just awesome.

[AFed]

Is there a way to calculate future upgrade costs and times, or does someone have to go through all of them and tell us?

I'm not sure of upgrade times, but upgrade cost is 1.67 * previous level upgrade cost

[Ramshutu]

I'm not sure of upgrade times, but upgrade cost is 1.67 * previous level upgrade cost

There are two types of building type A and type B. The progression is covered I tramp staps payout algorithm that you can find in the best of the best guides.

In terms of upgrades, Im not certain whether they are random, but with many different buildings having different upgrade times, it may as well be :)

[Ramshutu]

FYI: build time is 5 minutes, Lvl 2 1hr. Lvl 3 3hrs.

[sister morphine]

FYI: build time is 5 minutes, Lvl 2 1hr. Lvl 3 3hrs.
I've put these down to level 5 on page 1 of this thread

[sister morphine]

Using Tramp Stamp's algorithm, can someone put this info into a table please?

Level 1 - cost 120 gold, build time 5 mins, standard payout $3,800, tycoon $4180
Level 2 - cost $83,500, build time 1 hr, standard $11,400, tycoon $12541

Level 5 - cost $388,898, build time 10 hrs, standard $57,000, tycoon $62701
Level 6 - cost $649,458, build time ?, standard $83,600, tycoon $91960 approx
Level 7 - cost $1,084,595, build time ?, standard $117,800, tycoon $129,580 approx
Level 8 - cost $1,811,274, build time ?, standard $159,000, tycoon $175,560 approx
Level 9 - cost $3,024,828, build time ?, standard $209,000, tycoon $229,900 approx

[Sandukan]

So having no idea of my playing style, income per hour, and hood feng shui, is this a good buy?

[mxz]

So having no idea of my playing style, income per hour, and hood feng shui, is this a good buy?No. Tough to recommend an 8hr building. Unless you're going to camp forever.

HM was good for box openings, which is one reason a lot of people got it. And maybe free upgrades ;)

[Steve0]

I treat my 8h like 12's hard to collect during working hours.

[cooch]

Morph: Thanks for informing everyone of the new bldg. I'll pass although great for under lvl 100 players.

[TonySpaghetti]

I'll wait for the X-mas building-Hope it's a 12/24/48 building.

I hope they come out with a Kwanza special item.

[Vile Lynn]

I bet they bring back the Gingerbread House (or whatever they called it.)
That one was pretty cute!

[Kelsk]

what were the stats on the gingerbread house?

[sister morphine]

what were the stats on the gingerbread house?
It cost 150 gold, hourly payout which reached $7,500/8,250 on level 10. I think it's 4x4 footprint

This turkey place pays out much better, but is far more costly to upgrade too

[Kelsk]

ok thanks. iv seen a few around and was curious what the payout was

[Tomatoneverdie]

Wow, in that case, the Hunted Mansion is a far better deal. Thanks for the info, I am happy!

[NTM]

why can't they give some 24 or 48 hour building :(

that a building for guy who work and can collect every 8 hours, the life is not make for sleep ! wake up !!

[Ramshutu]

While it does cost more to upgrade, the upgrade speed is pretty good. That's primarily the reason I went for this one. That and its an A type building. You can never have too many A's

[sister morphine]

Agreed. Having something relatively cheap to upgrade whilst doing a big save is always good

[Sunsets]

So having no idea of my playing style, income per hour, and hood feng shui, is this a good buy?

I'd pass on this building and wait for the Christmas offer. Unless you've just got Gold to burn.

Calling out to itzkakarot: Any chance you could update your wonderful Hood Planner? I tried doing it, but I did something wrong as I wasn't able to select it under the "My Hood" tab. I'd greatly appreciate it!

[sister morphine]

Thanks for this. Level 6 upgrade takes 18 hours by the way

[Ramshutu]

It looks like it takes (or may take) five or six days ish and a few million cash to get this building to a point where it earning the same as a level 1 nightclub. I like this building more and more every time I consider it. Need something to hide

In terms of output, its a bit short of a loft, but with much faster and cheaper upgrades. IMO this building is a no brainer. So its a KA building with a turkey on top. The building is okay and I have seen worse things done to a turkey.

[Deluxe]

I'm skeptical...my level 5 PT makes as much in one collection just about as this building makes all day at level 10...

On another note, saw a guy with one upgraded to level 10 already. He's a guy I suspect cheats (6500 sarins and LMs each and iffy iph, not to mention way too many other cash items...) so based on upgrade times what would it take in gold to instant upgrade to level 10 already??

[sister morphine]

I forget the exact figures now - should have made notes, I know - but from memory the earlier gold finishes were not very costly. Less than 10 all told for levels 2 to 3 or maybe even 4. Anybody else? If I buy one for morph's hood will write it down.

[mxz]

It looks like it takes (or may take) five or six days ish and a few million cash to get this building to a point where it earning the same as a level 1 nightclub. I like this building more and more every time I consider it. After you have 2 NC2's its basically useless, though.

I can see it being helpful for early accounts or campers but I'd think at $300k+ IPH its not adding any significant value. The domino effect of a NC quickly obsoletes the investment.

[sister morphine]

You're right of course, but a limited building like this one is bought as much for its limited status as for the income. The only partial exception to that perhaps is the haunted mansion, but the hourly turnaround on that will make it hard for most to grab more than half to two-thirds of the daily payouts.

For a no banker, you're making not far short of a million each day from it at level 10. A nightclub beyond level 1 dwarfs that definitely, but it does pretty much for any building in the game

[sister morphine]

The ROI figure is quite decent surely? If you were to buy the building and run it up to level 10 without collecting once, it would take just 14 days to recoup the entire cash investment.

[mxz]

A nightclub beyond level 1 dwarfs that definitely, but it does pretty much for any building in the gameThis is the only reason I could suggest for mid-high level accounts. Limited buildings are cool and that's a good reason to get it...but economically it doesn't make sense.


And don't get me started on ROI... ;)

Thanks this Building have i more IPH, than with Loft and another expensive Buildings

If it helps, I had the same problem. Resolved it by changing all the values for a building I was never likely to buy, like the Mansion cos its a plain ripoff. Replace it in both 'Money buildings' tab and 'my hood' tab and problem is solved.

OK, if anybody else can help here it would be appreciated. I'm doing a nightclub upgrade which is gonna last until Monday morning

I'll complete the table as I go through the upgrades, but I know many people will beat me to it. Feel free to post upgrade times, and I'll keep this table updated.

[sister morphine]

Cool. I built another - this one on morphine's hood, which is now going to level 2

Someone asked about gold upgrade finishes earlier, so...

Level 1/construction - 1
Level 2 - 4

[mxz]

Upgrade times are usually the same as other similar buildings. Check to see if there's a building with a similar pattern as the times you know.

I think the HM was exactly the same as the Gingerbread House, I believe.

So far, these times are accurate. I have the 25% upgrade discount, so I divided my times by .75 and they are ineed whole numbers. I will PM you if any values change. Thank you very much!

Edit: Gobble Gobble Buffet is still not showing up in the drop-down list under the My Hood tab. It won't let me type it in either.

Yes, they are accurate. I made notes when doing the upgrades. Cheers!

Great work Itz

I'm really undecided on this building. I was trying to go for only 12/25/48 hours but I have a feeling ill be annoyed if I don't get this LE whilst I can.

Someone decide for me!....

Depends on how long you sleep for. I collect my 8 hour buildings at 11pm, 7 am and 3pm without issue and normally have 3 collections without problem. Granted you have less of margin for error, but even if you miss the collection its less likely to be robbed than others. Hopefully it'll have a huge xp payout when robbed.

Someone decide for me!....I say do it but I'm a LE whore...

So far, these times are accurate. I have the 25% upgrade discount, so I divided my times by .75 and they are ineed whole numbers. I will PM you if any values change. Thank you very much!

Edit: Gobble Gobble Buffet is still not showing up in the drop-down list under the My Hood tab. It won't let me type it in either.
The sheet now has the Gobble Gobble Buffet working. The My Hood tab has data validation on the first column to only allow buildings from the list in Column I, so that's why it wouldn't let you type the building in the list.


Itz, I have your sheet updated. I'll email you on Monday.
Sure. Take a look at my latest and let me know if anything's missing.

I've tried slicing this pie 4 different ways over the last couple of days, and I can't see how this is a justifiable purchase for 120g. Even as a Type A building, $3,800 is just too low of a base income. Save your gold for Gentleman's Clubs, Rock Cafes or Pirate Taverns (in that order).

I like it...But can't afford it.

It is a A building cause of the upgrade time , no use for upgrade time if you cheat ...
But for legit people , the upgrade time makes the building worthwhile ...

anyway the people playing sim city likes it , so basically that is it .
they will sell since IPH is the only thing free players can compete in this game .

Stats war is out , epic bosses end reward is for the medium spenders ... Ladder event for the compulsive gamblers / competitors .
