Worth collecting from neighbours after 60 emblems?

I am still visiting all my friends after the 60 as it will still give them tokens but I have removed a lot of friends who are no longer playing this event just gone over $90m but want to get to $100m :)

    I currently visit all neighbours every day, but after 60 taps I get no more emblems, and I maxed out friendship points ages ago. I certainly don't need dollars as am currently on over $15 million. Is it worth me visiting the rest of my neighbours? Thoughts?

    It's worth it to have the chance of obtaining a few donuts, if that matters to you.

    Yes!
    Your friends do get emblems even though you did not recieve anymore. If your friends spy on you, you'll collect emblems.

    Here's my strategy:
    - Check how many friend actions will give me emblems.
    - Go to a friend. For me the game currently puts me right at my friend's Stonecutters HQ. I try to tap that one to get 5 emblems. Then I'll go to my next friend.
    - However if I cannot tap that one, I'll go to my next friend.
    - If my friend does not have a Stonecutters HQ, I'll go to my next friend.
    - Some friends play very regularly (quickly disabling the spying in your own town gets you the most emblems), so when I visit them again I might be able to tap their HQ again.
    - If there are no more HQ to tap, I'll tap other buildings.
    - When I've used up my first 60 actions, I know I won't get any more emblems.
    - I'll tap other buildings and then I make sure not to tap the HQ. This way other people are able to tap it and collect 5 emblems for it.
    - My friends will recieve emblems, because I continue to spy on them after I've used the first 60 friend actions. :)

    This event changed the way I play. :D

    I still visit each one, everyday. There is the chance for donuts. Plus by visiting them, they might be more likely to visit me back and you get more emblems from friends visiting you.

    I have got 3 donuts visiting friends today after the 60 that pay emblems so it's worth it just for that :)

    If you care to help those people at the end of the list. And if you care for donuts (that's what I collect for :P )

    Always.

    Think of it from your point of view - if your neighbours were giving up before they got to you, you wouldn't have any handshakes/spy pyramids to click on, and you wouldn't get emblems from them visiting, and the number of emblems you got each day would be lower, making it harder to finish the event.

    If I see a neighbour clicking on my buildings, I would definitely help them back, so it's all about being a good neighbour.

    Yes because they usually visit your town as well and that is where you pick up emblems!

    I don't, it serves me no purpose. I've maxed out on FP so I don't see the point I would if they added another prize.

    Hopefully your neighbours don't see the purpose in visiting you either.
    Do you seriously expect them to tap away in your town to earn you 1500 emblems if you give up when there's no more personal gain for yourself?

    That's a really bad attitude to take. Have a look at some of the maths that goes on on this forum, one of your biggest sources of emblems will be other people visiting you. When it comes to each and everyone of these events cooperative play is key. Without it we'd all fail on all these events, or go broke spending money to compensate. I hope you have a change of heart because this game is a richer experience by helping others out. Also, DONUTS! Don't you want diabetes?!?!

    Wow... Horrible attitude. I'll be sure to never add you as a friend. A friend is willing to help you, even if it doesn't help themselves.

    I try to go through all my neighbors so they get emblems (or FP or XP) in their Springfield. Hopefully they notice and return the favor.

    I visit my neighbours daily.
    Many of the top level players added me when I was at Level 8, so it's a favor I give them in return.

    There are several points to continue tapping friends:

    Getting all the FP rewards if you are not at max (level 10)
    Random free donuts at max FP (I get 1-4 daily, rarely get none)
    Triple cash at max FP (visiting all 100 friends can net about 40k in cash daily)
    Helping others to have success at the game
    Seeing others' SF designs
    Having neighbors return the favor

    My friend list is full and I would say 80% of them tap me daily, and I always return the favor. My neighbors are awesome. Also, whats the point of making a cool town if no one ever sees it? Very glad you are not my neighbor.
