That's a good summary of things. I am also on the PC a lot, so can keep clicking, but I run some long missions too. Currently doing the drum lesson as the fans have crept up. I keep getting tempted to buy more cards to try and get the set, but I ought to get some packs too for a chance of those elusive epics and legendaries. I may sell some more spares to go towards that, assuming I find buyers.
I see you can now buy packs for Starbits without having to withdraw them first.
I do this long missions, but right now the band auditions are taking up my nightly stints. I have just one more member and the band is formed taking me into Tier 3. I don't envy you when it's your turn.
After that it's Drum lessons again. The Ego problem is small now, but still there.
Still nine levels to go before I can attempt it. Maybe I can get some more cards before then.
