Question about townies...

I was just wondering if you can leave "fully finished" townies waiting outside their town building indefinitely? Do they ever time out?

Thanks.

From personal experience, I left a townie fully served for 220 days, they were still there waiting when I returned. So I'd assume they don't time out.

Plus, apparently townie stacking is a thing. I don't know much about it, but based on that premise, I'd assume it's very possible to leave them all waiting long term.

Yes, this is a way hardcore derbyists pre-served their townies and tap them as soon as they choose the Town Visitor Task.

Prior to the derby, I thought the townies gave us gifts randomly. No, I must "fully" serve them before they have gifts in their hands. :)

Thanks so much, Jerhunter. That pretty much clinches it: that was a long wait. I just like to leave 30 fully served folk for a derby task and was wondering if it would backfire. I'd be interested in hearing from someone regarding how to stack them, say for 2 derby town tasks.

Use the townhall....

Leave fully finished, go to someone who is waiting or click on a person that has not fully finished in townhall. He will appear and you can then work at for instance the cinema. If a person without package is in front, it is good too. You can click him and work the building :D

But everything starts at the townhall. This way i can serve one towntask in 1 minute :D Next will last longer.
I haven't found out yet how to get the people that are in the middle in the row without loosing a fully finished person. I am mostly leaving 26 out of 42 fully serviced. This will take you about 1 day. This way it is more easy to place people in the right building. And i believe it is possible, having a row of 6 persons waiting in front of cinema, to put 3 people in cinema.

You can't exceed 42 though... that's a pity :D As long as they still have their present they are counting.

220 days?! Lol!!! Wow!

I'm going to try that with the little people next time they want axes.

I took an extended break from the game. When I hooked up my new device, it told me I last played 220 days prior. That's how I know that lol

I figured it was something along those lines. ;) Or that you were conducting a new test for a new thread idea.

Haha, I'm not even sure if there's anything else worth testing long term, most things about the game are fairly well known. Only thing somewhat unknown I can think of is the whole diamonds from the mine theory I'm working on.

This is what I was getting at. Once you have a townie outside with a present you can't put another townie in the building to be served without inadvertently picking up the finished townie? Is that right? Hope that's clear.
