The disconnects occur when communications fail from your device TO the server. The game has been set to time out too quickly. They need to fix this. Slowing your requests to communicate certainly helps. But this is a bug, among many that they haven't addressed.
Anyone still hearing farm animal noises while the game loads up? Another sloppy bug. Seems they are barely keeping the lights on these days. But i suspect this latest gaffe cost them a lot of revenue expected from this event. Pity. I was hoping they'd renew our faith in the game. Instead they confirmed their lack of concern for it.
