As good as the "neighbourhood switching is...
Yours don't go in order? If I start at Other Springfield and keep hitting the Right arrow sign, I just go through my whole list of neighbors, in the same exact order I visited them last time...

- I think it's awesome. Skipping to the next town is what you want it to do. It's not like you go into every second town!

The problem I have is because I added people after this new feature was added and it put them all at random spots in the list so now I'm forced to not use the "quick switch" as they are all jumbled up.potatocato wrote:

Since adding more friends this is almost exactly what the game is doing to me.
It's actually still quicker for me to use the main list to switch neighbours.- so seeing as you've just added friends, by tomorrow everything will be in order. it's not like you'd have this problem everyday

I had the same problem. Though I ended up adding people at 2 in the morning the first night. The next night I was in bed, so now everybody is synced up again. But I still found the arrows useful. it's still quicker to arrow over then to go back out to the friends menu. I just kept arrowing over till I found someone I could tap.
@ aljimo, ITA. I wish when you exited you were on the page of friends you just visited. I kept getting kicked out yesterday so it was a lot of scrolling.potatocato wrote:

No there won't because I've had this issue for days now. (Since adding friends at the start of the xmas event)
Only way it will "fix itself" is if I ignore everyones towns for 1 day so that everyone is ready to be visited at once.
Right now I get...
Town 1 = can visit now
Town 2 = wait 5 hours
Town 3 = wait 5 hours
Town 4 = can visit now
Town 5 = wait 5 hours
Town 6 = can visit now
Town 7 = can visit now
Town 8 = wait 5 hours
This kind of pattern runs right though my list of neighbours list.
I just think that if the "quick switch" took you to the next town with available tasks it would work better then just taking you to the next town in your list regardless of whether you have available tasks to do or not.DarkSamus75 wrote:

The world wont end if you skip a day, and you should still get all your prizes, provided you have a 100 friends. Go out and enjoy a Fri night, and all will be well tomorrow.- I'm not using the switch either. My neighbors are all over the place so for me it's faster the old fashioned way. I t would be great if it was a smart switch.

It's not about the prizes, I already have all of the personal prizes (32,000 cards and counting right now)
I am just trying to offer a small piece of advice to EA to help them make the feature even better then it currently is (I do still think the feature is awesome)DarkSamus75 wrote:

Sorry, I missed a sentence! I meant to say that if you let the groups catch up, then you'll be able to use the switch, and it'll be so much easier!
