Why don't they just charge donuts 1 or 2 donuts to collect/assign all. I wouldn't do it 99% of the time but there are times when it would be nice to have the option if I'm busy and don't have much time. You could pretty much pay for it with the friend visits for the day. I'm sure EA would support anything that costs donuts.

A similar option would be to reduce the payout to say 1/4 of the individual assigned dollars. If you really don't have the time you still make some extra money, but the penalty is stiff enough that you wouldn't do it all the time.
