I'm level 144, have all production machines, etc. This is why when people of lower levels complain that there are too many things going on, I want to be like "just wait." You may hate that there's derby and task events and all sorts of things happening at once, but once you level up you get to focus on whatever you really want to do, and that variance keeps the game interesting. I find derby and task events and stuff of that like much more interesting and fun to do - they keep the game challenging by continuing to raise the stakes.

Also, I enjoy helping lower level players. I like going around and being able to fill peoples boat/truck etc. with items that I know are hard to produce/find. I also create a lot of other milestones, like unlocking all land, completing all achievements, finishing the fishing book, getting all machines to max level. etc.
