I'm level 499. FTP player! I despise in game micro transactions. I used to play on my bus ride to and fro work and would sometimes play during breaktimes, nothing crazy though, maybe 5 mins 3 times a day? And then I would play a lot when I got home. I played everyday except for a few months in 2019 where I didn't play at all. I went HAM before complete was released because we had no idea what the specifics of the mechanics would be and the new currency market. I tried to level up as much as possible and get LT and spend every last ticket. I do kind of regret not buying more terrains because their new price in relation to cookies and premium items are the most expensive relative to their old price. However I'm not stressed at all since tokens are plentiful and I can now play at my own pace

I have not leveled up even ONCE since complete dropped lol. I do want to get to 500 but I'm in no rush to.
