I've definitely had some of the same issues. Also I have problems with getting stuck on the clock while loading chapters. There needs to be more room, more expansions. And I'd like to see patches of water to use, like the patches of grass and sand.
There are quite a number of excellent ideas on previous pages to improve the experience of GoT, and I am tempted to synthesize a post of all of the requests that I agree with into one comprehensive post, and I may still do that, but I do want to emphasize the following:
I know that some people like to wipe their gardens and start again clean with new themes, but I'm interested in the "one-of-everything" approach, and building little lands to wander to and from, the way that Disney builds theme parks. So I don't want to wipe my garden, I want a large enough playing field that I can continue to expand as new lands are added. It seems crazy to me that the largest size we can go is 19 by 19 tiles, especially if the Facebook version is somewhere over 30 by 30 or so. At 19 by 19 I am full without being able to fit the Roman Coliseum in, meanwhile I've been playing through the India level… to the point where I am now going to retire for a bit, only checking in occasionally to see whether further expansions are now allowed.
The really crazy part is that Playdom wants to sell us gold, but doesn't give us the place to put everything that we would buy with the gold. Why would I buy gold to purchase the special buildings if I don't have a place that they will fit? Playdom could expect quite the increase in revenue from this game if they would just give us the room to play it.
So, here's hoping for not just 20 by 20 for the next increase to maximum size, but 30 by 30. I'm ready and willing to go all out on GoT if Playdom will, but failing that, the garden of "Earthly Delights" is done.
Is this goodbye, Playdom? Or are you going to give me room to play?
Unfortunately, if you stick with your playing style, it's probably going to be goodbye. The Facebook version of the game may have 30 x 30, but they also have around 25 more chapters on us, too. That's 25 more chapters of new normal items, gold items, premium chapter items, and wonders. So even though they may have more space, I doubt that the playing style is going to ever be able to accommodate you.

Lil' Squeedlejinks tells me that the online version of GoT was just updated so more items can be upgraded -- buildings, decorations, and now artifacts. Of course, to open up her next scene, she needs a rep of 1,580,000 and it's going up by 20,000 per scene.
But upgrading artifacts and decorations would be really awesome.

Last2k,
Geesh. To each his own.
Thank you to TrixRN as she had the best idea and I wish I would have thought to include the wiki and I'm so glad she did! I was trying to be helpful and, if memory serves, the list of questions was quite long and answered on multiple occasions on the board. I hope they found what they were looking for, and I hope you, Last24k, have a pleasant GoT playing experience both here and in your gardens.

I apologize if it came off as evil. It's that I was hunting for the same things and after reading the response, it hit a nerve wrong, I had to vent.
The issues that aren't being taken care of but yet they keep on kicking out chapters. If I could get energy as a gift or now its gold from the free offers, I'd be ready for the new chapters.
I tried deleting the app to see if that fixed anything. When I downloaded it, it was a new garden. Had to login with Facebook and all was good. The free gold is now going to the new game and not the game I'm playing. The new game that is in limbo on my phone has 33 gold now. And I think it got one or two from when I leveled up, not sure though.
If the game in limbo received energy as gifts I would gladly abort the game currently played.
Any suggestions?
You are not alone. There are several of us, including myself, who do not get energy as gifts. There are a few of us "energy less" people who have submitted tickets for the issue and the answer seems to be to check this forum for answers and/or clear your cache, neither of which are helpful. I've gotten used to not having the extra energy - there are players out the with much bigger bugs and my garden seems to run okay. Knock on wood.
I can't help with Tapjoy but I'm sure someone else can hop on here and give you some feedback for that.
This is just a list of things I think could be updated in the GoT Mobile UI to make some aspects of the game easier to use.
- A confirmation on spending gold bars. I've accidentally rubbed my finger over the button and spent 10+ gold bars doing stupid things like upgrading a wonder without all the materials. This is SO aggravating when it took 10+ levels to gain those gold bars.
- A "Select All" option in the send gift dialog. I imagine most people send the same gift to everyone anyways, so why not make it faster to do. I think this might also get the people who don't send gifts to start since it is much simpler. (possibly something like this in the material requests too)
- A way to go back to the chapter you were in after completing a scene. It's annoying when you are in a later chapter and you want to switch scenes after finishing one and you have to go back to your garden, and then go back into the chapters and slide over 10+ times.
- A way to place multiple items from my inventory without having to go back to the inventory. For example, if I want to place 20 Yellow Orchids in my garden, have it work just like it does when you are buying that item. After you place it, the game has the next one ready. Going back to the inventory to choose another to place is REALLY annoying.
- A way to sell items from our inventory. It's REALLY annoying to have to place each one (exacerbated by the previous issue), especially when you don't have space, and then sell them.
- A way to get to the request materials dialog when you don't have any buildings or wonders that need any materials. This way we can get materials ready for future buildings or wonders.
