Does Mindy not have a permanent 4hr task?

That really sucks then. I use 4hr tasks quite often. She doesn't have anything between 1hr and 8hrs, for crying out loud!! The least EA could've done is give her a 6hr or 2hr/3hr task to bridge the gap!!

All characters should have 1hr, 4hr, 8hr, 12hr and 24hr tasks as mandatory. Even if you have an awkward gap until the next time you play, you can mostly get away with one of those to match it (or close enough).
