A shade short of 14. I live in the boonies so I can only really play on my lunch break.

Just past 7.. I'm stuck on wifi, but my tablet had a wonky gps so my avatar runs around aimlessly, which works for eggs.

Almost to lvl 14. I could hit a gym or two, but I'll probably hit one nearest my local theater this weekend.

I actually helped my team (MYSTIC REPRESENT) upgrade the nearest gym to my office the other day and put my shitty Pidgeott in it to defend.

We got kicked the hell out in less time than it took me to walk to my car.

Level 7.  Finally decided over the weekend to give up on my Pokemon Trainer account (which I was never able to activate and customer service was no help) and start over with a google account.

Playing this on the bus is awesome.  There are a ton of pokestops on the route and it goes slow enough that you can activate most of them.  And catch a few.  I'm horrible at aiming.

But luckily my desk is within range of a pokestop, so I will never be without balls.  Actually right now it's telling me my bag is full so I can't use it anymore.  And like Lorikan the GPS doesn't work very well here, so it thinks I'm moving around occasionally so will trigger Pokemon to catch.  So looking good!

I tried one gym this morning (from my own team - Instinct) - got thrashed but that's what I expected.  Went with Instinct because I have a red jacket but yellow on my hat and shoes so I thought that would work nicely.  Also Zapdos is my favorite of the 3.

Articuno being my favorite, and the first of them I caught back in the day, is pretty much the entire reason I went Mystic.

So I realized that even if my bag is full, I can still activate the Pokestop and get 50 XP every 5 mins.  So level 8 now!

Edit: OK well leaving my office and coming back adjusted the GPS enough so I'm no longer in range of a pokestop - well he wanders in there every now and then, but for the most part not.  Oh well, I get that I'm luckier than a lot of people, since there are tons of locations all around me.

I cannot hold a gym for the life of me though. All those elusive Poke coins....

Had to make the really tough call on my Eevee today!  Based on the leaked info, Vaporeon is hands down the most powerful of the three - which is why there are so many of them at gyms.  But Jolteon is my favorite!  So decided to go with Jolteon - already have a second Eevee ready for another choice.  Anyway what do I care?  I'm never going to spend enough time at this/any money to be competative.  Got from level 9 to 11 on my commute this morning though - it really is just amazing what I can do on the bus/T.  Got a Meowth!

Either I don't know how this game works, or there is no pokemon in the wild. I am working in a very remote location and all I see is grass and the nearby river.

You don't actually see them until you are right on them and they spawn.  I do think you have to "move" to trigger them - you don't seem to be able to just sit still and have them come to you.  But it's been my experience that the GPS will make little adjustments here and there that will cause your character to move a bit, which is sometimes enough.

There just ain't shit out in remote areas.  It's a very urban/suburban game.  You can still find pokemon out there, but not nearly as often as you would in more densely populated areas.

Becauase honsely I don't think Niantic/Nintendo wants people wandering around in the forest and getting injured in search of rare pokes.

OK, found a quirk that is annoying me.

I'm not ready to battle yet.  My Pokemon are all way weaker than the ones at gyms.  But you have an OVERALL limit for items you can carry.  Yesterday I was at over 200 Pokeballs.  Now I'm under 80.  But my bag is full so pokestops aren't giving me any.  I'm not ready yet to be using all these potions I keep getting!
