EA, it would make me really happy if you could add a send all on visual tasks option in the unemployment office. I don't care that they would be on different times, it just makes me happy when I'm scrolling through my town and i see characters on visual tasks. Would be really cool to see all 220 of my characters on a visual task at the same time. Thanks

Except for time. Do you realize how long it takes to send 220 characters manually on tasks? Ain't nobody got time for that..
Maybe 10 minutes?
Dont be a troll..
Maybe cool it with the name-calling? I wasn’t even suggesting that your idea about the Unemployment Office is a bad one. I was merely pointing out that it’s not terribly difficult to do what you’re suggesting without having to add a new feature to the game.
Ten minutes? How ridiculous and thus the request for a simpler solution.
Same with Citizen Energy and Wind Lad for 12-hour jobs.
That cost is marginal at best, unless your bonus percentage is only in the low triple digits,
and given that information, yours is likely well into 4 digits (if not 5).
Certainly if you care about maximum profits, then you can do more 54 minute cycles of send&rush&collect with the office, than when doing 58 minute (+/- ~2 minutes) 'send manually . rush&collect' cycles.
Hopefully you've organized certain buildings and a little road so that you can collect all income from all your characters in under 10 clicks (assuming KEM Central Office) or at least under 20 clicks.
Actually, my bonus is less than 500%, but thanks. We all play our own way.
Even so, you're only looking at a loss of 3% to 4% cash.
So how many minutes does this typically take you? And how many times per day do you do it? (uh, "it" being sending tasking out your characters.)
Can you rush jobs through the office without using donuts?
If so, how?
Thank you.
The following info is from the tips thread:
You can 'rush' individual characters for free when there is less than 10% of the time remaining, or 1 hour 59 minutes for longer tasks. For example, a 1 hour task can be rushed for free when there is 5 minutes, 59 seconds left. NOTE: Krustyland tasks CANNOT be rushed for free
Non-premium character costs:
Premium character costs:
You can send all idle characters on a common task length of 1H, 4H, 8H, 12H, or 24H from the Office of unemployment. There is a fee for this - 25% of the job's base $ reward for non-premium characters and 15% for premium characters.
If I remember correctly it can only be done if all characters are on the same time length task and once they reach a certain point in the completed time amount you get the option to rush the task for zero donuts.
