I both love and hate the collections. I hate how some pieces seem SO IMPOSSIBLE to get, yet others I have over 100. It's all part of the game, I guess.
I did manage to FINALLY get the Luxury Suites which I really wanted to add to the rich part of my town. It fits beautifully with the millionaire pool so I'm very happy. I just want the perpetual motion machine now and I'll be happy for that collection.
I really also want the pirate ship for the Beach collection - I built about 30 of the small houses this morning (they are the cheapest and build in 1min) and only got Pirate doubles. Frustrating!

I am hoping for winter we get a snow getaway. Outer space would be fun too. Guess after how long this update took it may be awhile until we see much more

I like that idea. A snow escape would be fun. It give us somewhere to put the winter/christmas items once we're ready to take them out the original town. And a lot of potential for new items.
I also saw a suggestion for a hollywood theme. think it would be fun to be able to create walk of fame for our theaters, directors chairs, set-up film crews.
By the way, they are promising a fix to the blurry screen issue that some of us are experiencing on the next update. Can't wait - the pixellation is getting really hard on the eyes. Hope that doesn't take as long as land. The booyah website says its an itouch issue.

I wish we could see other peoples new lands. I know this is now an old complaint/want. However, I think it could get confusing for Booyah. A good compromise would be that we could set which of the lands people see when they visit. It could just be a new tab in the social menu, just a check box list where you can only have one land selected. It could default to the main land. This would actually be easy for Booyah to program since it is still only one main for visitors.
I like the new lands but it is really nothing if we can't visit other people's new lands.

Does anyone think the land portion will eventually be expanded? I think they'll make us wait awhile before adding more land to the original town. Every Friday when they announce the new items they seem to get more comments on land than the new items - complaints about the cost of land/the new items from those who are still clearing their original land and calls for new land for those who are full. Now that my getaways are in good shape I'm in process of editing my main town and moving things around. I think my town is just destined to be full looking. I seem to be compelled to fill every nook and cranny with something. Not done yet but hopefully its starting to look better. I'm waiting to get my town transferred. I sent booyah all the info they needed to transfer my town. I finally get a response. And it said, that I cannot play 'my town 2' on two devices at once.?!'jfggb???! I was asking to have it transferred! How frustrating!! Maybe I'm wrong but I get the impression that booyah is actually a fairly small company. I imagine they are being bombarded with getaway transfer issues and complaints from players that still think that housing price/housing wonder changes are just a glitch. I know. I always see the same couple of names when communicating with them. I think your right about the size. They finally transferred it!! I can't believe that I ever played on the small screen, lol. Wow. I'm super excited to play. I talked one kid into letting me give him some suggestions for earning more coins. I'm working on the other.

I love the new lands that Booyah has given us! But, I hate that giant clam shell that sits on the bottom right of the beach getaway. I wish that Booyah would move it somewhere so that it wouldn't block the view of my beach.
Is anybody else bothered by it, or am I just being a grouch?

No, I'm grouchy about it too! But what I want worse is for the beach and lake to be the same size of the mainland. Or maybe it never will. It just seems so small to me and then to earn things, there isn't enough room to place them. Okay...that said, I'm still having fun so guess that's what counts.

There's a clam shell? I should really start paying attention. Edit: Ok I just found it, turns out I never zoomed out enough to see it. It was lack of attention, it was just laziness. I feel better now.

I bought a bus stop and a court house in my son's town and got the last two pieces for the equestrian circle. Who woulda thunk it would be so easy You were so right. That worked. THanks. Any more tips on puzzle pieces are appreciated What about the light house. I checked in to everything I could over and over. I didn't have any business in the getaway and thought maybe that was the trick. I transported one business to the beach. 20 check ins to my one beach business and I got the second last piece. Less than 20 mors(I think) and I got the last piece. Finally, I really like that light house, lol.

I have decided to make the big switch. It seems to me that there's little point in 2 General threads. Most of us are now on Getaways, and the rest probably will be soon. So I am going to start using this as my General thread, so I don't have to keep up with both. I hope to see some more of you over here. If not - hmmmm me and the clam will duke it out alone.
(I am sure I will get a finger pointed at the Naughty Chair if this is not appropriate!!)
