    Watch your data usage!

    I notice I'm already at 1.7 GB this morning, 5.7 GB the day of the app 'fix'. I notic on most of my IOS devices especially ones that have display issues that the app appears to be reloading all graphical elements and data on each log in. Yes the app is only 88mb but the graphics and data files are between 1.4 and 2.0 GB once fully loaded.

    Ok this is the same problem some Android users were facing, if you are still getting display issues, log in freezeups and crashes on IOS go into system, click usage and see how much memory if any you have left. It seems the app needs almost 1gb of free memory in order to load. WTF Gree.

    I don't think half the devices in use even have 1gb of memory.

    Precisely why I only play on my wifi-only iPad.

    Why would one purchase an unlimited plan (if even available) if one has never had any need ofit?

    Personally I don't any longer. But I feel the pain for those that do and my friends still playing so when I see something that could really screw over someone I speak up. That would include free players and new players so IMHO if I see something like this that could really be an unexpected surprise on your next internet bill I'm going to say something.

    Not everyone has unlimited internet, I don't because in all these years I have not needed it and since I stopped playing this weekend I see my usage dropping. Many folks can't get unlimited so are capped and some providers can really hose you for additional fees if you go over, especially if you are on a cell phone data plan so your useless smug comment serves no one.

    Plus playing for free makes it a lot more interesting from a strategy standpoint.

    I never quite got it either, but it's not my money. But it would have been nice at one point to have gotten a number of them to have held back in unison once or twice.
