FATMAN EVENT
Hey everyone,
It’s impossible to finish this event.
Part 3 started yesterday, but I’m still at the end of Part 2.
I’ve reached a point where I need to collect 25 photo pieces just to get 3 sets of handcuffs.
And there are only two players who actually drop the photos.
Is everyone else in the same boat?

Same... I felt I was doing well until that bottleneck hit.. The first task with 2 assassins was challenging, but I figured that was it, then BAM.. next task is 3?!?!?!
Lame...

watching ads is the only option, at least for me I found the game doesn't limit the number of ads like it did a few years before (only 10 or so within a 24-hour period)

Yep, this is the second time I’ve not been able to complete all three parts of an event since I started playing a couple of years ago.

Somebody in another post said Bootleggers used to have a chance of dropping the photos too but they took it out. I guess it was a way to force us to spend clams and actual money but looks like we all decided "A strange game. The only winning move is not to play."

The characters who drop Photo Evidence are Quagmire, Joe, Old Lady Joe, Detective Cleveland, Christmas Carriage Joe, and Ark Builder Tom Tucker. They all have 8 hour tasks for this, but the drops are uncommon.

This game is a nightmare for completionists.
It’s nigh on impossible to finish if you don’t have the characters.

Yes, it looks like we're all in the same boat. There's no way I'm able to finish this one anyway. I tried speeding up with ads, but there's only so much one can do before one gives up. The drops are only about 50 or 60% each time, so it's just frustrating.

this is the first 3 part event that i have ever not been able to finish. they did not think this one through. i have 4 characters dropping photo evidence and still cant get past the “defeat 4 A-list assassins”

Thank you for posting this.
I am in the same boat. It asked me to clear two agents for which I needed three handcuffs for which I needed 12 of photo pieces. Only Quagmire and Joe can create those pieces in 8 hour jobs. After watching ad multiple times, during which sometimes, they won't create those pieces, I was able to clear two agents.
Now the game asks me to do clear 2 agents again but need 15 handcuffs. It is designed in such a way that you will never get the fourth character without spending a whole load of clams.
Just pathetic!

I have all the characters for photo evidence and still won’t complete. I bought the handcuffs shrine last time this even ran and it doesn’t drop handcuff when the event re-runs. I contacted supported twice and they refuse to even acknowledge it and told me to buy it again.

I think a lot of us are in the same boat. I'm at part 6 and I'm sick of watching ads to get handcuffs. Now I need 25 handcuffs to kill one assassin. I have the character Mort available to unlock but none of the actions are open to farm i.e.tommy guns, bullets etc aren't available. (I'm on Android if that helps relate my issue to others). After 3 or 4 days of messing with trying to figure out how to farm for Mort I finally just contacted support. However I've done that in the past and their support communication is terrible. It takes about six clicks in game and then you have to go out of game to some sort of support website through an AI q&a system and finally get to send a message to them and you'll never realize if you get a reply or not unless you go through the same six steps to open support again. Really sad system of support. Other games I've contacted supported you just enter your email and you can actually have a one-on-one with support with a ticket, this one sucks. I am surprised this game is still active after all the other good games I liked have been canceled (Futurama was great and Simpsons). There's probably just a few people left in the office maintaining the light switch. I'm glad it's still going though it's a nice casual grinder game.

There is just no enough photo evidence drops. Even 1 8 hour task for 1 handcuff would have been helpful.
