I've been playing this 'casually' on a house iPad, never really admitting to myself that I'm playing a FaceBook game. And now, I've started my own instance on my PC. I have to admit the reality of it to myself now.

I can't stop playing this because of social reasons, but I can stop playing it so much. It eats up so much gaming time, I barely play my regular rotation games, let alone start new games.
I've been going very slowly, leveling only every few days at most, sometimes not even once a week. I play less comps, less league, less memoirs, less detectives needed, less sweep the board - etc. - but somehow it still eats up more time than it is socially useful.
I had a list of goals, the primary one being to get to level 500. I always felt that was the core of the story, and once I did that I would be mostly done. Recently one of the endless mini games, mystery secret something or another, started to encroach into the main story. I feel it's going to spoil the main story, which I've been slowly doling out to myself over the years.
Now I feel I have to rush through the story, and maybe still get spoilers. It doesn't sit well, but maybe it's not so bad. I'll probably never stop playing this game, but at least I can be done with it.

Finally made it to 500 (on Aug. 7); got the commemorative planter and everything. Now I don't care about the story. I've already seen most of it in another instance, and it's not worth following.
That took almost 3 years, but I expect it to pick up pace now. No need to slow things down, I can just burn up new scenes as fast as I like.
