Too many flags?

For some reason your subject line brought to mind the old Eddie Izzard sketch: Do you have a flag? You can't be a country if you don't have a flag! :P

But to answer you question- I have no issue when my neighbors go decoration crazy. It seems like most people have at least one deco that they LOVE to use. I say if yours is a flag, then you do you!

I have 2 flags, and they have on and off today been glitchy, graphically, speaking, so I'm not sure what having a bunch would do :)

You can never have too many decorations that you love!

I don't recall having any problem with your town today, despite having crash issues all week.

As I explained in another post, I freaking LOVE the 4th of July and the American Flag. I think it's because I was born in 1970, so when I started school the whole country was gearing up for the Bicentennial in 1976. All of the excitement of the beginning of school was extra amazing because everything in my world was Star Spangled Red White and Blue and Declared Independent from any sort of Good Taste!

When the flags became available in Springfield, I went a little overboard. I might have gone a tad batshiat crazy, even. They are everywhere. I might buy more, before they go away. My feeling is, if 100 flags are good, 2000 flags are not quite enough, right?

But, today while I was going through my Springfield looking for stuff to tap, I realized that my flag fetish might not be as pleasant for my neighbors as it is for me. And even worse, it might slow their systems down or cause them to crash. :-(

Is anyone having issues with their overly patriotic neighbors? Should I tone down my Yankee Doodle Dandyfied Springfield?

Umm ... Well ... I should probably recuse myself from this discussion...

Animated flag tends to be more glitchy than other non-animated items.... But I can live with it.

I don't have space for 2000 flags (though I can afford it), but I'm happy to decorate my town with 200 flags! 8)

I don't actually have 2000, but I haven't counted.

How do you take pictures? I've never done that. I would love to show off my goofy town. :-)

It depends on your device, so consulting Google is always the way to go. I can take a couple shots of your town in the meantime.

What kind of device do you play on? Most phones/tablets have a screen capture function, which you can use to take a snapshot of various sections of your town...
