I'm at 11500. Could finish today, but probably take it easy and finish tomorrow. Not going to bother with the boxes as I don't think spending 3 hours a day whacking snakes is worth 750 cash or even 3 donuts.
This seriously is a part time job. Fortunately I have the elite license so I can go to my friends, quickly find 8 snakes and then move on. Stopped going to any town over level 24 and that cut my total time down to 30 minutes, but still visit about half my friends. Also have a couple good egg buddies that supply about 400+ eggs a day. My feeder account is more work than it is worth so gave up on that the other day. It is at almost 3k though.
I am not complaining about how whacking day is set up, since I can't think of a better way. They needed to do the friend visiting thing, but it is very time consuming! I look forward to being done whacking and can spend my time redesigning with all the cool new buildings :-)
