It's happening to me too and today I noticed I lost a tile as well. :cry: 3.5 days gone.

Right now my strategy is to go in and collect before going to friends in the morning. Then during the day I'm not too concerned. Cash isn't an issue for me, but the XP loss sucks.

I'm turning on all my Christmas lights just as an indication that I'm affected by the clearing glitch.

Nice idea with the lights! :thumbup:

Hopefully the lights will catch on. That way it will be easy for visitors to know that towns are affected by the glitch.

I have the glitch, but don't have xmas lights to turn on :(

Auto clear = check
Lights on = check
Kind of redneck to have Christmas lights on when it's not Christmas = check
Neighbors solving problems EA should be fixing = check
Loving the look of the towns with lights on in the middle of September = check

For the record, it's totally ok to listen to Christmas music in any month ending in brrrrrrrr.

Tried fixing it for you. A little big though.

I like imgur for this sort of thing. You can edit and scale pics on imgr.
I'm not familiar with capabilities of photobucket.

Very small version...

Thank you for trying to fixing it. I will look at img for better sizing.

I thought I could do something like this in my town to get the message to my neighbours :)

Well they just put a patch out for iOS. Did not fix building timers auto resetting to the beginning. Way to go Ea. On a side note I got in touch with ea live chat Saturday. Just checked status of my account, shows in progress. If they have to fix every account individually I'm thinking it may be fixed in time for us to have to tap on neighbors for a Halloween event.
Or if not, visiting neighbors better not be required, over half of mine now are showing only a couple tappable buildings when visited.

May have griped too quick. It appears it reset every building timer with the patch. Since then the quicker buildings like brown house etc are filling in and keeping the collection icon up when checking on neighbors or KV.
Hope it keeps up with the longer timed buildings as well.

Switching my lights on

Yep, got the update, didn't fix auto clearing. Can't find my xmas plunger, anyone remember what it's called? It's not where I thought I put it, so perhaps I stored it and just don't see it in the giant pile of stored crap.

I did borrow the spelled out message idea. Hope I don't lose too many friend because of this nonsense.

It's called the festive light plunger. When searching your inventory for it it has a giant down arrow,may make it easier to spot.
