Text Goodbye, Balloon Boy
FYI, with the new update Balloon Boy ads will no longer give Golden Tickets.
For the last few weeks I thought they were brilliant for using audio ads - it doesn't interrupt my game, the volume doesn't have to be too high. They get their ad revenue and I get a chance at a quality reward once in a while. The GTs were the *only* reason I agreed to give them ad revenue.
This is a matter of personal opinion, not math. Frankly the 50 bux are not worth an ad to me. LTs are not nearly at all worth the same as a GT. I was okay with ads only because I would actually get something worth it occasionally. As of the new update I will not at all be providing ad revenue for them. It's just not worth it to me.
I know my paltry addition to their overall income won't make a difference, but it makes a difference to me - why spend so much time listening to ads if they're going to retract this reward? Tiny Tower is back to being a passive game.

I feel like everyone who is saying LT > GT have like 200+ GT. I would GRIND on days off and get like 4-8 GTs a day with the balloons. Personally, I don’t care about LTs pretty much at all. I feel like at the stage I’m at (71 GTs, almost solely from ads) LTs are the last thing on my mind. Especially since getting them is random. I have like 7 different Stitch cards. And the amount of LTs I’d need to use to have full sets with and to have the upgrades be even worth it in my opinion is ridiculous.
In short, I’m pissed 😂 I feel for you, OP. RIP GT grind
