Attention: neighbors of wadebear and abearsanta - aka Stacking Glitch

I'm not sure of the exact time I visited abearsanta this morning (April 6th) but I think it was between 9 and 10 AM... oh wait, time zones.. uh I'm in Pacific so it'd be 2 hours later for Central? Which would then be outside the time frame you're interested in.. oh well.

I visited you at 12:30 AM central time today. I clicked 3 Brown Houses.

When I visited wadebear last night a little after 8:30pm Eastern, I tapped 3 things and my game crashed. After restarting, I rechecked your town to make sure the buildings I tapped were still tapped. They weren't so I tapped them again. I have never had this happen before. Now I feel guilty thinking I caused this. :(

Couldn't have been you. Both games were affected and I play on separate devices.

Oh, wait! You crashed the server database! That's it!

Seriously, I think there's something wrong with the system. This is the third time in a week. They probably messed something up with the changeover from Superheroes.

I tapped both of your towns last night. I hope you got the handshakes. Is this happening to anyone else? My neighbor visits have been normal except for the time I crashed in your town. Hope it's not contagious!

Hi, I tapped today both towns for you for sure. I know that's not exactly the time frame you are looking for. I will say, tapping friends was a bit sporadic over the weekend for me. Easter festivities had me running around crazy. I try to tap everyday though, even during non events, but the last few weeks have been a bit rough. Sorry for the inconsistency.

Good luck, I hope your game gets fixed.

Well it happened again today - this time just on the abearsanta account (playing on an iPad Mini 2). 2 graffitis from my neighbor whose username starts with azsh.

Everything looked normal on my wadebear account. Handshakes all over the place. More than usual since I overslept and had to run to get to a medical appointment (I think something I ate made me ill last night). Then it was our weekly grocery shopping trip and by then we were both starving... I didn't get back into the game today until 9 PM - an 18 hour gap.

Now with my sleep cycle messed up so I'm awake at night again I won't be able to contact Customer Support by phone for several days. So I don't know whether to waste my time with chat support or wait for the next update and hope that fixes whatever's wrong.

Oh, and we managed to burn through our monthly Daytime satellite allotment early this month, so I would have to do it on our night-time allotment to not waste the little we have left for the next few days until the monthly reset. (When our bandwidth allotment runs out they turn down our connection speed to 33.6 kbps - unusable.)

Hi :D

I hope you don't mind me pitching in as I'm not a neighbour but I wondered if a little test I did in my town today would help or not.

I started a thread earlier about getting double handshakes on some of my houses and wondered if it was stackables, so to do a little test I logged into my daughters town and visited my own.

Now I already had two handshakes on the simpson house but was able to tap it again, but... I moved around the screen and it regenerated and I could use all three neighbour taps on that one building!

So when I went back into my own town I still only had two handshakes on that building, not one of the three others had registered. There is something very glitchy going on!

I'm now wondering how many of my neighbour visits I'm not getting and how many of mine are not going through! There is obviously something wrong somewhere!

This could all be related to my missing handshake/graffiti issue.

Possibility: Buildings continue to show tap-able icons, which leads to stacked handshakes. When the stacked handshakes get too high it causes a reset and clears them all. So I'm only seeing the last few things tapped right before I log in.

Further possibility: Once the stacked icons cause a reset it locks out all other taps from registering.

I'm seeing most of the stacked handshakes on my Brown Houses. I'm gonna try removing them and see if this stops. I'll also try spreading my other quick regenerating buildings away from my landing zone so they're less likely to be tapped.

I visited abearsanta about 7-8 hours ago.
2xgraffiti and Krusty Burger I believe

Yeah, after I removed my Brown Houses I forgot to leave any Blue Houses untapped in abearsanta. Sorry about that. I left a batch this round.

I'm gonna have to come up with a plan for leaving Blue Houses. I'm just so used to leaving Brown Houses out for my neighbors to tap.
