Potential updates for "Tapped Out"?

I do wish this game would be updated. I'm stuck at level 20, I've bought every building (that doesn't require donuts), and I'm just amassing useless land plot by plot (maybe this is the "unincorporated" part of Springfield Marge feared so much in the episode "Marge's Son Poisoning"!).

Anyhow, there's so much I want to do. Advancing levels and earning donuts to buy premium stuff would be awesome. But more practically:

1. Let's give everyone a voice. Milhouse is a mute and Scorpio (I didn't get him but can tap him in others' towns) is tight-lipped. Maybe their voice actors, Pamela Hayden and Albert Brooks have some contractual issues with their voices being used. But still, c'mon.

2. Why can't we reach the west river/ocean? Is this a potential South Street Squidport/harbor? If so, where's the Sea Captain? He rewarded me a donut at Level 14.

3. Where are all those missing characters who were scattered in the opening sequence? Pretty sure I see these people (in rough order of appearance):

Drederick Tatum
Gil
Disco Stu
Dr. Hibbert
Lunchlady Doris
Jasper
Kearney?
Fat Tony
Ms. Hoover
Kent Brockman
Barney
Sherri and Terri (separated)
Patty and Selma (together)
Ms. Krabappel
Agnes Skinner
Smithers
Bumblebee Man
Lenny and Carl (separated, but they appear in-game to give a level up reward together)
Sideshow Mel
Nelson
Ralph Wiggum
Brandine Spuckler

In addition, Otto gives a level-up reward but he is absent in the opening, as far as I can see. Also, I could have misidentified or missed someone in the list above. The video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CPjsMFXOOC4) is available on YouTube for inspection.

4. Make our friends' Springfields more easily accessible! Scrolling through that endless series of 4 towns per screen, in ABC order, is not easy. Every time I come back to the world map, I have to start at the first screen all over again. Time-wasting in a BAD way.

5. Settle this "newer version" issue once and for all. If it is, as many suggest, incompatibility between users of different countries, "well, why is -- those things?" I keep getting friends whose towns I can't access. Kind of annoying to remove them as friends right after adding (sorry: I do this because I can't afford "junk" Springfields in my world map--see no. 4 above for why).

C'mon EA, make this game as fun as the show its based on. Like Sideshow Mel wearing hand-me-downs from his predecessor, you've got big shoes to fill.
