Same bug here, 2 red flying settlers placed at the same time, one disappeared, one still running.
guess what, i got the generic "clear your browser/flash cache" mail.
i got this "This is a known issue, which is currently being investigated."
plz get that fixed
+1 for bug, -1 for BB
We are loosing buffs BB. Can you do something about it BB? Im really tired about all those performance issues, lags and so on (flickering whisp tab, crashes, freezes, and so on and on). I know some bugs are caused by flash but some not. Im not interested in new content i can enjoy this game without anything new but i cannot enjoy this game with rising count of bugs...
Or i have proposal: If you are not able to fix old issues then pls stop introducing new ones (i mean bugs)
here too. groups of buildings all buffed at the same time with 24hr buffs - log on, some finished, others not :(
Happened to my lv6 Fairytale Castle. A Stadium Snack ran out prematurely - no idea when, but it should have been running til 9pm, it was out when I came home from work. Shrugged it off, but at a loss of 150 Magic Beans per hour, that's not all that funny.
Now we need confirmation from BB about this bug, seems a lot suffering.

This is costing players a fortune in resources.
Have seen several on global/help complaining that the fairy fire they were sent to try out the zone buffs only lasted 1 minute, mine just lasted 10 seconds, I had collects to find when it went on and still when it stopped 10 secs later.
This make no sense, we need confirmation that BB found the bug (confirm the bug) and what the status of it, not just "pass it".Quote:

Zone switching is causing an issue
Similar happened to me, though I think I got the better part of a whole minute.
same here. It lasted about 1 minute
Very odd - I have no idea how long it lasts because I find all the collectibles so quickly when it's running. Is this a new issue? Do the same players have problems with buffs not lasting the full time? (I wonder if there is a connection).
Logged out and upon my return to game about a hour later the reindeer buff had ran out according to the zone buff window yet I still see reindeer on my island.
Edit 15 mins later the buff is back after visiting a friends island.
Threads merged.
This is currently still being investigated, so thank you for the details!
As someone else reported, the reindeer buff seems to turn itselves on and off - had to visit a friend's island to get them back
I know i named this thread 'buffs' but until now these have only been production ones and has been going on for a very long time.
There is now a new bug - The Island buffs not running to full term and altering upon visiting and revisiting other islands. This is very different and I cannot understand the need to merge the two threads.
Threads are merged because (in spite of the different type of buffs reported) the issue is the same: buffs are not remaining for the duration they are supposed to remain.Quote:

Zonebuffs seem to randomly disappear. And then come back... I have Reindeer Bait and Thousand snowflakes on and then suddenly the screen blinks and snow disappears, but reindeer stay on.
Later after visiting an adventure the snow came back. So it seems it has somethign to do with advs starting/ending.
There'd be pics of the before and after if I could get the pic attachment thingy to work at all. Stupid forum.

I have same issue. Buffs dont run the time it should. And sometimes i buff buildings and when i double check buffs isnt running and building runs unbuffed. :( This is on feast buffs.
Confirm for 5th time, and with screenshot : http://imgur.com/a/eFNKZ
Please solve those issues, i'm losign a lot of buffs lately, I lost Fairy Fire just now ! last a few seconds and gone.
THIS IS THE FIRST PRIORITY TO SOLVE THIS IS STEAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please do not swear, even in abbreviation.

Image from the Test server, never got around to posting it after adding text.
Either way, and if you haven't yet, might send a ticket to Support and ask for a replacement. It is especially awkward to lose those buffs during an event like this one.
Nice. Made sure the screen shot was added to the issue report.Quote:

Same here, since the separation of the zone buffs from the tavern; duplicated on three different versions of the game!
The game is too bright for me so I constantly use sandman's powder, the problems encountered with the new feature:
1. when the game loads there's no sign of the buff (it's day + the zone-buff indicator shows there are none active)
2. randomly the buff is deactivated - it's somehow connected to some kind of a background reload as at the same time I get notification about new/completed quests that I already got notified about when the game first loaded
temporary fix is to visit another island and come back, temporary because the situation from point 2 can happen few times within an hour...
Would be good if anyone cared to look into this:-s
I lost Fairy Fire for 2nd time yesterday, I sent a ticker they just telling that they investigate the issue I provided screenshots too.Quote:

I bought 21 Fairy Fires last Thursday (enough for 3 collectible quests a day) and had to buy more this morning (Tuesday) which by my reckoning is at least 6 (possibly 7, maybe even 8) buffs which have been swallowed up by this bug (and 54-72 gems wasted)
Dear BB please sort this out soonest - Thanks
PS excellent screenshots Iolanthe - perfectly sums up the problem

An improvement should have been deployed with today's version, aiming to solve this issue.
Can you confirm this is still happening at present?
If this is the case, please offer as many details as possible and I will make sure the situation is investigated thoroughly.
Thanks Ravel. However, the Dev. Blog about today's fixed states this "Zone buffs last the intended amount of time." I don't know if this bug affected zone buffs as I don't use them. I was referring to building buffs.Quote:

has nobody noticed the game goes to a complete halt for a brief moment when this happens ? or if you're holding a mine aiming to build it it just vanishes with that silly new collectibles quest popup ? (not always but sometimes that still happens too)
please give more info so they can investigate and finally fix it, thank you all in advance :)
Info hopefully aiding in diagnosis of buffs running short (my wife and I don't have the problem but maybe some of this will demonstrate a difference with those who do):
- We are in the same guild and on each other's friends lists
- When casting buffs on myself, I move as fast as the screen lets me
- When casting buffs on my wife, I wait on each one until I visually see the buff start and I hear it chime on both of our systems
- Feasts are the usual buff but many others are used
- Almost always we are both online when buffing the other
- Almost always we are on the same wireless connection - we also play on different mobile broadband connections but buffs are very rare
Maybe some of the above will add to a 'baseline' of some kind
When is this issue going to be fixed? I have just lost another 180+ lot of steak buffs. My buffing buddy placed them less than 8 hours ago :( This is costing way more than I would like. Should we just stop using the steak buffs?
