Finding fans in friends towns

Hard to find fans in friends towns, takes forever to get to the next town, and, I'm only able to gather fans in 10 friends towns. If this is going to be the norm, I'm never going to buy the card to double up on tapping in friends town again. It's not worth 90 donuts. I like the thought that this is like Coachella, but otherwise, this event isn't worth the time to bother playing. I am playing, but now at the point where I don't care if I don't get all the prizes. It's slow going on winning them, and don't think I'll get all by the end of act one. EA is making these events as hard as nails. They're not as much fun as they used to be.

Seems almost like most of the effort to set up the timing of the whole event is to prevent people from earning bonuts, while at the same time dangling as much premium content as possible to tempt people to buy donuts. We do get a lot of freebies, so I'm not complaining at all about it. But I know there are people who come up with some pretty clever strategies to maximize their gains from events, and it seems like the limitations are now so strict that the events are less enjoyable. Not to mention the many players who can't log on as often as necessary to complete the event.
