"I would guess the active player base is . . ."
"I would estimate the active player base is . . ."
"I think the active player base is . . . "
"based on my...

20$ will be done in 2 days and you'll be back to the sweat camp. If you don't want to be looking at your computer screen doing nothing for the rest of the month deposit 300$
