I'm working on level 16 right now. I am with the others on this, 18 levels are way too many especially as hard as this one is. Still at my moms house until Monday. Then I make that 1100+ mile trip back home. Yes, I am driving.
Yes, I also have the event and will play in peace and quiet in the evening to relax. I will only have a holiday in 4 weeks, then there will certainly be another event.
