Yes there is a pattern to my lockouts with tales. I play one tales with minimal problems. The next tales I get locked out early day 2 or 3 for the length of tales and the first day of leaderboard. The third one in the sequence I get locked out on day 7. Today I am locked out. I had skipped ahead using gold so I could at least get the second dragon. The problem is not only do I miss finishing tales but I miss gold collections, growing food, visiting neighbors, collecting for the monthly dragon, and collecting for the battle arena dragon. I wish they would just suspend tales until the problem is fixed. What a lovely gift for long time, loyal players.
