I've figured out what "unsolved murder" means

They're talking about how EA has murdered my interest in the game. And guess what, I solved the mystery. It was through another terrible update.

First off, they melted the Ice God. It was predictable that the new snowmen would melt as the others did, but at least their heads are recognizable. The ice god is just a puddle now. He takes up space and cannot compliment my Buddhist Temple anymore.

Of course anyone's free to build his or her SF as they see fit, but the ice god never was a complement to the Buddhist temple because it's a Hindu god. Also, the puddle version is a perfect fit next to the ice rink or parked in front of Barney's Snow Plow.

Second, the grass seems way to green.

Totally a matter of opinion, doesn't bother me, and IMO doesn't equate to EA "murdering" the game.

And most important, after months without a level update, we finally end this wretched X-Mas update which seemed to drag on forever, and we got nothing from it. No new land/characters/buildings/decorations.

So you didn't collect ANY of the individual or community prizes? You didn't get anything from the wheel? You didn't get the Yes Man, you didn't get the Elf House (which still generates $$ and XP), you didn't get the Christmas tree, the reindeer...need I go on? We actually got a LOT from the update, even if you remove the wheel from the equation.

EA, you're losing me fast. Very fast.

Is that a threat, or a promise?

You'll never stop playing because you clearly find great satisfaction in being dissatisfied with the game and then posting dissatisfied rants here. You are most definitely getting something you like and value from this game: a bottomless spit n' vinegar refill. :roll:

You have intelligent answers but everytime you post, it feels like you're belitting everyone because you you have an answer for everything. It doesn't make you appear more knowledgable about technical programming, it makes you appear standoffish and it's quite demeaning to the people who don't announce their titles or their knowledge or skills right out in the open.

I'm sorry to get off topic here, but to be clear, you are absolutely berating Josh for the sake of putting yourself up higher on the totem and putting him beneath you. There's nothing wrong with sharing advice or information on the subject/s you understand and have great prowess in but it's not worth being pompous about. It would be like me telling you that your avatar looks cheap and that I could draw something better with my eyes shut all just because I have my degree in Fine Arts and finshing graduate work in Painting and Printmaking.
