Looks like I got the answer today...I maxed out at 35,500 tickets. Hope they add more puzzles very soon...for me, this is the fastest way to add tickets to my account.
I haven't gotten any new puzzles for something like two months now, so don't hold your breath. I've resorted to multiple accounts just so I can play Flexicon, because I can't stand doing Spelling Bee and others for very long. Flexicon keeps me interested enough to keep going on this.
Edited to add:
My stats say I've made about 35,500 on Flexicon, too, so I guess that is the final limit for now.
It appears to be 22,00 for Crosswire, which I've been maxed out on for a month.

I have tried the Flexicon a few times and it is relatively easy but I can't do it nowhere near as fast as Chicktionary or Spelling Bee. How long does it take most people to do an average Flexicon game?

I can do flexicon in under two minutes if the answers are repetitions I have seen before. Still under 5 minutes most of the time for any I don't know instantly.
The real time sink is having to hit solve for each and every answer. I don't seem to go any faster if I solve after typing each answer, or waiting to hit solve for all the clues when I'm done, clicking once every 3 seconds.
With the Chicktionary/Spelling Bee/Word Slugger games, I can do those in 45 to 50 seconds. With time alotted for the CAPTCHA entries and plugging into the anagram solver, I can complete 1000 tickets in 50 minutes to an hour, though I usually break it up and play for ten minutes at a time, several times a day. Like during conference calls, and before and after I start working for the day.

I thought I was the only one who worked on these during conference calls . . . In other news, I did try a few Seekadoo puzzles yesterday, as I now expect to be running out of both Word Slugger and CrossWire in October.

1:15 to 1:45, but what really slows it down are the captchkas (can never spell that thing write...right?), the "Play Again?"/puzzle loads, and a warm cpu.

In case you didn't know, it's click-5, then wait-3.

I'm guaranteed some AA miles every week. Remarkably, I was "complaining" earlier today about this being the 6th consecutive day of not receiving any DL miles (from any source) - the longest I've gone on that account thus far without adding miles to the balance has been 7 days (not a bad place to be) . . .

So when I run out of puzzles on chicktionary, spelling bee, and word slugger...is it best just to use a new account to accumulate my miles instead of playing a different game?? Opinions please.
