Purchased 25M worth of rat traps, game said lost connection, lost the xp

yeah, same here and not just grinding donuts
friend visits has also been bad for days
thought it was my internet?
give it time, it should work itself out

I'm planting a crop of KeMs that's approximately 17x9, every 4 hrs. The only crashes I'm worried about are when the xp payout is floating. So I tap and collect them in groups of 10. I've had only two crashes doing it this way, where I lost the chance for the donut box. But I'm not worried about it because as long as I have a crop growing, whenever I log in i get a donut box immediately that's not in sync with the xp meter or anything else. Confusing but very welcome

25M would be like 166 RTT! That too many all at once even when the servers are fine.

I did eventually contact support, they couldn’t do much other than give me 20 doughnuts.

I’ll be more careful next time and just place a few at once.

I usually do about 100 Rat Truck farming and then collect the donuts. I would wait a couple days and do some more.

If the server is working okay, I will do ten at a time. But the last few weeks I've gone down to 5 or even 3 on really bad days.

The server problems we are currently experiencing is why you shouldn't put down a ridiculous amount of RTTs or BMs.

You're basically burning money right now.

Sorry. That sucks. I'm trying to remember how many I lost the first time I learned this lesson. It was a lot. I do about 25 bloodmobiles at a time, now. I usually just collect donuts for the amount of something I want. It's so tedious isn't it?

I’m doing one at a time lately. 2 or 3 if I’m feeling daring. It is very tedious. I hope they fix it soon.

3 at a time for me too lately.
