    One thing I've noticed since I started playing and cruising the forums is the has been a routine with the updates.

    1. Update comes out.
    2. Few days later everyone is over last update, starts wondering when next update is coming.
    3. A few people start claiming "Its coming, it's coming, the update is coming today at XX: XX! "
    4. The forum blows at listed time update was supposed to arrive, still no update.
    5. Angry mob blames the false prophets, but still holds hope it will come in next few hours.
    6. Update doesn't come, the end of the world is near, everyone losses hope and starts speculating what day it will come out next week.
    7. BAMB!!!!! Update miraculously appears, people rejoice and are happy for the update, life is grand!
    8. 12 hours later process starts over.

    Makes me believe EA watches the forum and waits till we all give up hope then push the updates.

    You forgot the part where a certain few complain about said update :-)

    The update comes when the update comes. It's in EAs best interest to spread them out so I would assume that means none this week.

    Well..... What do you consider "finished "to be?

    If you mean by tasks and buildings being completed, then a lot of us are done.

    If you mean by having all the boardwalk sections, then do not speak of such evil!!! Although there are some who have sped up and have finished.

    I read an interview with that guy. For someone who seems so likable onscreen, he's an incredible stiff

    The thing is, people are going to get excited, and then if a update doesn't come, people will blame EA.
    So don't get your hopes to high.

    Not for nothing, they should monitor this forum if they don't. Seems to me if we are obsessed enough to chat about the game with strangers, clearly we must be the ones pumping $ into the mill.

    That feeling when you see an update in the App Store, excitedly open it, and then see its for a different app... :(

    I've been wondering this for years, but what does "not for nothing" mean?? Seems to be a NY/NJ thing

    You forgot about the part where every one complains about EA ripping everyone off and making us spend donuts so that two weeks of tasks are complete in a matter of minutes....

    I'm not sure what it really means either but in NY it's said "Nahfonuthin"
