With the previous update it was the first time I got land opened up. All the way to the top left. Now, with the Halloween update, they added some even higher than that. This makes no sense. Why not just give land tokens? Now my Springfield is a very odd shape and I’m not using the completely out of my way land which was made available. This really annoys me. Please, EA, stop enforcing me where you want me to put the items for the update.

This seems to be the new direction EA has chosen with regards to free land. It has been brought up in the past with much support from users like you and I, but it appears that this request has fallen on deaf ears.

I really don't like that they've chosen the land for us, but at least they've given us *genuine* free land! I'm despairing for the amount of land I have yet to unlock purely because of "free" land tokens.

only a few more events until it becomes level again!

My land is right next to the plot they gave me last time. I'll live with it.

why can’t I chose where land becomes available

Mine is at the far right, right of the area for the zoo. I can't even buy the land beneath it, so the area is not expandable.

I now have an empty 3 x 6 section going up the top of my map. Why?!!! I had any empty 3x3 section from the previous event. Just give me the tiles.

Yup same here, it stuck my zoo up there and I thought I would be able to buy more land but i cant because 3 rows of squares dont have the option to unlock with tokens or anything.

So when the Halloween event started it stuck the dig site up there, since I relocated my zoo to an area that had room for it to grow during that event. So now I'm stuck all the way in that corner again during an event instead of using it to kem farm....

I think they are doing it this way to eliminate an issue they had with previous I&S event. Where the gate was set to find open space to place the gate. Those that didn't have an open space got locked out of the game for over a week. By automatically giving you brand new untouched land, there is no way to be locked out by the auto locate feature.
