Yes, but the fact you have to wait for the server to unwind in order to catch a worker that was done an hour previously simply indicates programmers that don't know what they are doing. Icons jumping around offset from where they are actually working and after all work has previously been done is just sloppy programming. This is one of the MOST retarded aspects to this game. It simply indicates poor planning and lack of any thought about how MMORP games work. The icons should NEVER be out of sync with the actual work. I should NEVER have to chase down jumpy icons for an hour after all work has actually been completed, and chase those icons offset from the actual work. This is Comp Sci 101 fail. Slowness of the servers and constant "connection to server lost" problems are something different but clearly indicate a lack of understanding of basic programming concepts.
