Mrs. Dracula is not a playable character until/unless you win her on the prize track. Until such time, she's just tending to her minions... and messing with your characters.
The lag while collecting cash from building is absolutely horrible, not only it's incredibly slow but it won't even let you move away to click on different buildings to collect or do anything else for that matter. You have to wait till all the cash gets collected to move. This needs fixing asap.
As well as some or all of the above issues I also am now missing my update related items in my store. When I go and visit my neighbours the update related tasks are missing, its as though my game thinks there isn't an update.
I'm now clearing out my cache to reinstall everything, here's hoping it works
One weird glitch I'm seeing now is no real increase in lag time but whenever I tap a building or character to collect cash/XP it won't let me scroll my screen until all the cash/XP has been collected. Could be fun when all my characters finish their 8hr tasks at the same time. We'll see...
I can confirm this is happening to me too. When I cleared like 30 houses plus a bunch of tasks, it took several minutes until all the cash and XP cleared before I could move anywhere.....plus during this game '"halt", no buttons or jump to completed character task buttons work either.
yup, i can also confirm this glitch is real.
Here as well. The game is faster on my phone, its gonna make playing on the iPad so slow. If you click on "neighbors" tab on the bottom and then click on your town icon afterwords, it re-syncs your town and all items get collected.

I have the same problem. I've tried rebooting, restarting, reinstalling.... so far nothing has worked. Have a ticket in with EA, hope they can fix it.
I went to the dig site, I hit the gem with my second attempt, the game just sat there. The animations of the game continued - the gem was glowing and the leafs were falling. But the game froze, nothing was awarded to me and I could not scroll away. it stayed this way, with the animations working mind you, for about 1 minute until I force closed the app. When I reloaded it, I was awarded a small amount compared to what I would have gotten.

I've found, as you did, that nothing has sorted the problem. I'll go open a ticket as well, hopefully the more of us that complain the faster things will get fixed (speed subject to EA...)
similar freezing issues here... unable to scroll around town/assign jobs/select buildings (going to the neighbor screen list and back seems to fix it for now... at least for a few minutes)
also the IRS mass-collect blast is very hit-n-miss.... some thumb/building/cash icons successfully emit a radius blast to clear those around it... many do not and only clear that one character/building.
Tip (maybe):
My screen will freeze in place when I send people out on jobs through the unemployment office. It's corrected by going to the friends screen and back. Unfortunately, any income not yet collected when it freezes doesn't seem to register when you return to your town, so...
Make sure your status bar has completely finished tallying cash & XP before you set your jobs so you don't lose any cash or XP.
I noticed that as I sent characters on 4 hour tasks via the UO. Don Vittorio and Shelbyville Manhattan were possessed by the vampires and could not be tapped. When I tapped Alaska Nebraska, the screen froze around her. I could go back to tap Vittorio and Shelbyville, but could not move the screen.
Seems like these guys like to screw with your UO if your not quick enough to snuff them all out...
This.
First time it was ling bouvier, second time it was someone else.
Then the game crashes and I had to restart. UO didn’t recognise a character was free
Yes it happened to me. Must have tapped evil homer 7 times in a row. Now his character doesn't change to a monster, but his icon shows up in the top left. When i tap on him i receive the event currency.
Nothing happens when I tap on my Minioned Springfielders, and it locks the screen. This happens when I click on their character and go to them, not when I find them.
When you use the character finder in the corner it does appear to freeze. Any other way of finding them, via daily challenge, its fine. Same if you come about them.
I’ve found that tapping the character icon again after the freeze will often clear it up.

Not that I'm going to buy any but there's supposed to be an option to buy pickaxes in the store. I, however, have no such option to buy pickaxes. Is anyone else missing this?

yes

Yep. There were three onscreen when I got the message last time.
