That's right, the silly people finally got their wish. EA made the "Chase _____ with pitchforks" task visible instead of having them all gather up in a Brown House like they have for lo these many years.So about halfway through tapping all the characters into the task my games bogged down so badly that they weren't even going on task - tapping did nothing. "What the bleep is going on? Why aren't all these characters going to a Brown House? It looks like they're all dancing!"My games are so bogged down I can't even build my KEM farm. Even on my most powerful device - the iPad Mini - I'm bogged down so much I can barely scroll around town.So only send the minimum you need to do this task - 10 characters. Otherwise you'll be bogged down like me.Oh, and the worst part? They don't even have pitchforks.

My phone basically stopped functioning in the game after 1 sent 480 characters on this task. The next day I had a town full of characters twitching and twisting back and forth. Thought I was in a Stephen King game. It took an hour to clear the poor spastic creatures. Had to put em all down. Thought I might have to let the triffids out.

Glad it wasn't just me. I let them unoccupied overnight once the 10 were after Moses

My phone is still bogged down even after finishing that task and moving on. Nothing I do is clearing it up. I even tried uninstalling and reinstalling and it's been reinstalling for 20 minutes so far. Has anyone else had this happen where it's still bogged after the task? How did you fix it?EDIT- 6 minutes later it has finally finished reinstalling and I am still bogged down. Nothing I do is working. Help!!EDIT #2- OMG I figured it out. I can never send my people on a mass 4 hour task ever again. It sent them on the pitchfork task!!!!!

Half of my town are running around. The rest are standing in one spot, going left and right quickly.

LOL. I thought this was going to be a warning for people with religious 'sensitivities'.

Warning: "Make Springfielders Chase Moses With Pitchforks" is a Visible task

I only sent 12 characters on the task so wasn't a problem, but it's a pity that they don't actually have pitchforks.

A better animation would be to have them run from building to building, each one released a set time after the other. The destination building would be picked by the character they're chasing.

:D
I saw this in my game too but I forgot what task made them do that. I'd love it as a permanent task as I always use the zombie sandwich and send kids trick or treating. Fits perfectly.

Had this a couple of days ago and had to do it as getting 3 ticket Challenges is getting challenging, they're either 1 or 2.
They're running really fast but skipping steps or fitting on the spot.
Had loads of jobs to collect so made sure I did them first, cleared up straight away as soon as last one was done.
