Your character MUST be on "jobs" to receive Valentines Cards

Not once have my characters gotten a card not on task. I tried for 3 hours.

I dunno what to tell you - your just unlucky I guess. I got three valentines within 10 minutes on quimby earlier today.

Just tested between my accounts, and the task-less characters ARE getting Valentine's. This is different than how things were working between my cities last night, and hopefully it won't be different in 24 hours!

Multiple Hearts from one character are most likely the result of friends tapping previously tapped cards in the short "lag period" when a user enters your city and cards are shown before disappearing.

Yeah, what is required to receive hearts seems to change daily.

The other side though is when visiting, you should have a chance to get hearts as well.

And while its hit or miss whether you get one, the constant seems to be that if the character associated with the building is not on task they can get a heart, but the visitor will not.

So, what is the argument against putting characters on tasks?

Just tested myself again using my husband's town. The building tapped determines which character gets it. The character that came with the building tapped gets it no matter which building they happen to be in. I tapped 3 and they all went to the character expected for that building.

Just visiting myself from another town and this was not constant. I only received one heart while visiting, but all characters were on tasks. I have no argument against keeping them on tasks. In fact, mine are always doing something, but it appears to have no bearing on the hearts received on either side.

I don't think it matters either way, so do as you wish! Tasked or taskless, the Valentine needs to be collected by the user before another Card appears. It doesn't seem like the "regeneration" process is any different than last night, just variances in what prompts the Cards....I guess that's what we've learned....for now...

I wonder, if my neighbours received my cards I am very confused about Valentine :lol: , ad still have neighbours that I can not visit, Why are the card sometimes floating above a building and sometimes above a character? :? :roll:

But seriously, all of my characters were roaming around freely all day and received cards... so... if I post it on here, I believe it.

I'm with you on this and evan go as far to say its better not to have characters on tasks. I have had multi cards too.

Doh, and now I had another update ?

Re-read. I said its hit or miss if you get a heart if they are on task.

But you apparently will not if the character is not on a task.
