same here... there is obviously a load problem... a server may have crashed so if we wait a few minutes, they will have it back on line (Fingers Crossed) :-)
In Ireland here, my Christmas tree will be ready soon, but if I can't get on then, I'll just have to go to bed and wait till the morning. I've lost enough sleep from this game as it is.
To make it worse, I feel as though Bart's grin is just there to wind me up further. As though EA is giving me the birdie.
Exactly! I feel like EA's response to this issue more inflammatory than the actual issue. "Don't you wish you were one of them?" REALLY?? I just got booted out of the game because their servers are inadequate, and all they can come up with is a snarky response?!
Maybe they're going for "hip" or "cute" responses, but I find most of their "can't connect" messages rather insulting.
It's Saturday morning here in Australia and can't play - obviously the Christmas rush has put a load on the servers.
It's probably because we are all spending so much time on the game collecting coins from visiting friends. Don't know about others but never had so many froend requests and visiting friends to my town.
Santa coin rush is definately the main reason.

So EA in its infinite wisdom decided not to fix the connectivity issues its players were having, but instead decided to block enough users down to the capacity of its servers. Wouldn't be that bad except for the big middle finger they give the user when they cant get in. Oh well, i guess this goes along with their track record of providing exceptional customer service.

agreed
Quite a smooth way of saying you're doing a * job on stabilizing this game. They should reaaally fix this...
