the hearts are nothing. It's the just the latest annoying as hell thing. Before that was the santa coins, and both times there was zombie Gil trying to get under where ever you are tapping. Before that it was a pain to always be sure I had good 3G before I started playing. Dont play in the middle of the building at work, because you'll get dumped out of the game. Oh and there is the lovely "Synchronising" screen. Love when that jumps up right after I just tapped a bunch of businesses, characters etc. None of my other iphone games are as finicky or as annoying with deadlines or as hard sell on the in game purchases. (seriously, isnt there a clause in that developers agreement with Apple about that stuff?)

What part of this ends on the 28th did people not understand? I have no sympathy for those who lost hearts.

Worst.
App.
Ever.

Wait a second. Are you telling us that this is actually the *second* time you've lost in-game currency because you failed to pay attention to deadlines? First with Christmas coins and now with V-Day hearts? And you expect folks to sympathize with you? Hmmm....

But it needs to run until the end of the 28th all over the world. That would be 11:59 PM Samoa Standard time! Any other time and it is not fair :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Maybe future events should run until EA receives written permission from each and every user for them to end the event. :wink: :P

We would never see an update ever again as someone is always gonna want more time :lol: :P

Oh for the love of goodness, quit throwing your toys out of the pram.

Can people not read anymore? It said "Valentines ends on February 28th". It gave a message a week before on Facebook. It even had it in game if you tapped near the hearts that it ended on February 28th.

I rather think that's plenty of notice and warning.

I'm pretty sure they forced the update because of the negative donut glitch. It was really really easy to do, and now it's fixed.
