Walking corn

I think the Walking Corn should be Dancing Corn! EA should sprinkle a little Fred Astaire on them. The corn can tap dance down our streets wearing fedoras, holding umbrellas, swinging around our lamp posts, maybe voice them and have them sing "Singing in the Rain"!

hmmmm... Maybe I need to take a break from this game...

I noticed that too. I usually just hide the buildings and the decorations to find the stragglers. I find it easier to find them when you don't hide the roads.

That's all fine and good in your town. But what about your visits?

You only need three. Just don't zoom out maybe? I don't seem to have a problem finding them, but it's annoying that you can't tap two corns that are right next to each other because the money get in the way.

It does take me a little time to find corn in my neighbor's town, but I also had the same problem with criminals and little alien guys. Sometimes there just wouldn't be any where I was looking and I would have to search.

In my town, I keep tapping the lampposts. Same shape, but they don't move, so I feel silly.

Why not just make them bright fluorescent orange with big arrows pointing to them?

They're supposed to be tricky to find.

Forget the lampposts! I keep tapping Brandine!!! She and the corn have the same hairdresser!!

It's even worse in my town. I bought a bunch of rainbow fence pieces at Easter and put them up around my street (I just have 1 short section)... and the corn blends right into them when they stand still. I've been staring right at the spot on my screen and they'll move... Oh! It's a corn stalk...

What is this corn of which you speak? Perhaps I don't see it as I'm only on upgrade 3?
Thanks!

BECAUSE I have no need for ingame cash, I've stopped searching for cornstalks.

I only get event currency for the first 90 stalks tapped. With 84 neighbors, I don't need to "search" for three stalks. If no corn is visible on entry to their town, I do a quick, little teensy scroll in one direction, to see if I spot any. If none show up in the first few seconds, I move on. So far, I've always reached my 90 "profitable" corn stalks maximum.

In this event, the neighbors don't benefit squat by our visits or our taps, nor can we even let them know that we have visited, unless we have seeds to drop to them. I drop whatever seeds I have as I go, which doesn't require any searching on my part. :)

(If I needed CASH, it would be an ENTIRELY different story! I'm fortunate to be in the small group that has no use for ingame cash.)
