I know that sucks. I have 2 separate games going and last week 1 was a fortune teller and the other sold paintings. This week 1 was a painting trader and 1 plant trader. Sadly neither had anything new for me. It is a little disappointing but I have other games I play that don't progress fast enough either but the only difference is nothing bad happens if I stay away for a day or two. With this game you have to play frequently and devotedly or all mayhem breaks loose. I love the game but I'm definitely hoping for a feature that helps to do daily tasks when you can't. It really is a lot to manage sometimes. Im sure the fortune teller serves a purpose. Has she said the same thing every time? I keep looking for something that triggers something but nothing yet.
