Maybe I'll just spend all my donuts. I really wanted to save some for Halloween, but there are characters I still don't own, I could easily spend what I have so I'm not worried about losing it.

I decided to go through the MT in my lowest level feeder town. No lost donuts yet but I am not enjoying crafting hell.

I'm guessing, John, in a day or two I'll find the crafting as annoying as you do, and I've never been a fan of the tap-, tap- tapping. However, I found it very entertaining last night as I tried to figure out the most efficient ways of moving forward. Let's face it: usually, we don't have to think much playing this game, but at least at the beginning of this expansion, I've found it enormously fun making constant adjustments on the fly. And no one will disagree with this: never has EA made this much material available so quickly.

Even though I decided to wait to play again until they get a fix for the donut issue, I have to say that I was also having fun with the expansion before I stopped. I realize it may start to become a bit tedious after a while, but I enjoyed trying to figure out the best path to get to the next currency earning building. I'm not a fan of crafting, especially during events, but because there is no time limit involved I could pick it up and put it down on my own time table - I like crafting much better without the time restraint.

Hopefully they will figure this out soon - I want to start playing again, and I want to see what my neighbours have done too! And I really hope they make good on their (implied) promise that everyone will get their donuts back - I haven't lost any, but I really feel for those who have.
