What I am worried about is that I didn't have the other option! It went straight to playing anonymously and a level 1 town. However, I'm not freaking out because at least it wasn't my account that was level 1. Soon as I can sign in, I'm sure it will be fine.
Luckily, I had set my people on long tasks so I could go shopping (got home earlier than planned) so I'm good for a bit longer before my fingers start to itch to get back to it.
I need to buy more land before that stupid bowl-a-rama is done building! My OCD won't let me just plop it down anywhere. Oh..no...it's got to be nicely planned and placed in just the right part of my town to hide how hideous it is.
