Rapid Fed Button Pressing Warning

I always wait for the "congratulations" screen (which is usually after the presents/FP collect). I figure I might not get the bonus XP otherwise.

Not I. I have been doing for a while now, and have not had an issue. I see game cash, XP and presents very briefly as the shoot across the towns. The one question I had was answered the other day. Sometimes it looks like the third one dropped nothing, yet when I scrolled it was nearby.

I checked this when 1st getting the button and it seemed I still received credit for the presents. I didn't get any donuts for a couple of days so I slowed down and it may be coincidence but I started getting donuts again.

I have even seen donuts in pick ups.

I've been going rapid fire since I got the Feds. Didn't even think about this. Thanks for the heads up, I wonder how much I lost.

Have lost none. Will get the first Xmas tree by tomorrow.

That's odd. When I press the button as fast as I can I get credit for the actions and the final Neighborio message, but the presents are not added to my total.

Will watch more closely next time I do my visit. You are aware that there is a limit of gifts Feds give out? I think it is only with 40 neighbors.

Yes, but like is said. I click the Fed button as fast as I can, and that's pretty fast considering I grew up in Nintendo (NES) generation :) . I think I just never gave it time to register.

Are you saying you're quicker than a speeding smart phone/tablet.
Can leap over small green mario mushrooms in a single bound. :wink: :thumbup:

same here, I'm paranoid like that

I was doing the rapid fire thing the first couple of days. I always kept an eye on the total presents, though, so I know I didn't lose any. The first day I had Feds available, I cleared my 90 friends in 11 minutes. Two days ago, however, my game started crashing every time I hit the Feds button too fast. I mean, every time. It was awful. Now I have to let the screen settle on each Fed before I hit it again. I have been getting more donuts the past couple days, so maybe I was getting the presents but not the donuts.
