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

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.

    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.


    You can X those 1 ticketers



    I have, and another 1 ticketer comes in behind it, X that one 24 hours later and I get another 1 ticketer behind that.
    I cannot remember what my limit is, is it three or four 1 ticketers in a row.
  • It’s visual but they don’t actually have pitch forks when chasing.

    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!!!!!


    Just avoid it till the end of the event, the pitchfork task should disappear after that and you'll be okay to use the unemployment office again.
  • If you have Krustyland in your town and the rides are continuously running even with no one in them, that can do it. Mine is now stored.

    If you have I&SL in your town, that definitely causes it. Mine is stored.

    The Recycling Depots have caused it for some, mine did, it magically just cleared up one night for no reason, I can't remember how long ago.

    So I just dealt with the pitchfork one accordingly.
