Hire friend clock
In the last upgrade GREE made it so you have to load your friends in chunks, presumably to cut down on server usage (downloading 90 friends pictures often caused delays for me - so I appreciate that change).
The inadvertant problem it created was the location of the essential data on how many friends you've used up and how much time you have left is 9 downloads away (for me). And god forbid I touch one of my friends while dragging the screen to the left 9 times, then I wait for it to add that friend, reclick hire friend, and start from the first screen again (an "add friend" button would solve this). If the goal was cutting down how often I download friend data from the server it backfired. It can take me 3 tries times 9 screen downloads just to check the clock once (of course I relish the chance to check in on Radaghast - who doesn't?).
When you get down to one friend or no friends available the clock is right there on the hire friends screen. PLEASE KEEP IT THERE ALL THE TIME.
It would be fantastic to know immediately that I've used X of 10 friends and the clock resets in X hours right on the screen.
Thanks for listening GREE!Last edited by The Pale Rider; 09-17-2013 at 10:28 AM.

+1 It would be great to have that information on the first screen you see when hiring a friend.

All it would really take is a little banner of text that says "4/10 friends used in the past 24 hours" and/or "3 inactive friends available in 3:26:18"

+1!
For a minor, yet someone silly solution, set an alarm that is named 'use friend' 23 hours after you use your first friend so that you know the time. As for the amount.. that's a bit more difficult. You'll want to just remember this... lol.. It sucks because I've once thought that I had 4 friends left and actually only had 3 when I needed all 4.. Oops!

Also, it would be helpful if the knights that people used were left in place (ranked by level) after being used instead of being moved to the end of the list.
