Because I'm impatient :o But I'm working on it ;) Maybe maxing out everything is a good exercise for that...

And I didn't say I'll be through with all after two weeks - I know I won't. I just wanted to show my progress then to show you you'll not be giving your advice in vain. :)
And I know too that 4 days isn't really much for a level up, but it's the longest for me now, so this will be the last point, but this may change when I got attacked a few more times and realized it would indeed be better to do them first.

And - honest question - at what point is my level actually important? I never paid attention to that before because you don't get anything out of that anyway. I didn't even know I was that high until someone pointed out my level.

Level is an indication of how advanced you are and how long you have been playing this game. Unless you donate tons of troops, this is usually a valid measurement. Now for a level 40, you must have been playing this game for at least 3 weeks right? This means your gold grab should be at least 60 million, which is obviously not the case judging by your walls. So to conclude, you never raid enough in this game, you don't know how to get a BK at TH7, and you shouldn't rush further. Slow down a bit. Max everything at TH7, starting from your collectors and mines.

LOL your village is completely SHlT. Max all your pumps and uninstall this game

@sheeptag: That actually makes sense. Thank you! I guess maxing out is the better option then. I guess I'm playing for about 4 weeks now, according to that I've been in my clan for at least three weeks.

I had some raids this evening, so my walls are now golden except of 12.

No, I won't rush. You convinced me of that. :D

I recomend you to stay for a while at th7, you arent even a decent th6 so no way to go to th8. And the drills wont make y enough DE at all, until they are level 3 they produce nothin...
I recomend you to stay th7, upgrade ALL your defenses and in meanwhile farm for your walls because like this you will get crushed at TH8 !

If you are wondering what is the best farming strategy at th7 I recently made this video, gained me like +4mil gold in 2 hours, hope it will help you out seeya!

It's really not too hard to max out town hall lvl 7, i'd say the minimum is to get every defence to its max level and at least level 6 walls with a level 7 wall core. Make the most out of it and mac your base out, troops and all. While it's still relatively easy.

As I've tried to find out a th7 that seemed to be sufficient enough to go to th8 i found out they tend to be lv's 52-58. When you find yourself within these levels you'll be able to go to th8 w/o being too far behind

Not sure if you're in a clan that you like now, but my clan passes on applicants with obviously rushed bases like yours.

I dont rush.
The only thing i dont upgrade is the mines and colectors. All my loot comes from raiding. Besides that i fully upgrade everything.
I think that if my mines and colectors are fully upgraded i will be attacked a lot more! I think that it can be an incentive to be farmed. And since i dont need them and i cant protect them very well (TH7) i dont upgrade them.

In my experience, you can prematurely jump to TH8 because the level 5 Barch troops are so effective compared to the level 4 but the OP is just ridiculously premature even for TH7. For sure get your walls to all pink at least and don't even think about it until your camps and troops (that you use) are maxed for your particular townhall level. It really depends on your play style. If you are going to be online for longer periods where you can farm enough loot to get a particular upgrade going (in other words, you aren't leaving your loot in storage a lot), you have the luxury of being a bit more premature. I jumped to TH8 a little premature and didn't regret it but, again, I was online a lot.

First of all, I like how people that have english as a second language usually talk and type better than those who grew up speaking english...

Like most replies said, I suggest maxing th7. It's pretty easy, you just need some patience. If you don't have that, then you should at least max your splash, max all the troops you normally use, and get your walls to level 6.

If the only reason you wanna go to th8 is the drill, don't. At level 3(max for th8) it only produces a little over 1,000 de a day.
