For me the times are all cut in half but the gold remained the same, I like it.... Teaches me patience!
Level 1-30, breed time the same as before, 1 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 1-30, breed time the same as before, 2 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 1-30, breed time halved, 2 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 31-60, breed time the same as before, 1 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 31-60, breed time the same as before, 2 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 31-60, breed time halved, 2 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 61-94, breed time the same as before, 1 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 61-94, breed time the same as before, 2 gold to speed up 1 hr
Level 61-94, breed time halved, 2 gold to speed up 1 hr

I really hope the price differences are just in a test phase and we will move on to being fair to everybody. Imagine 3 persons going to a store to purchase the same item, but A pays the original price, B pays double and C pays half, how in the world is that a good idea?!
I have two accounts: my main account is on an android phone at level 94, and the price doubled. My secondary account is on android running on pc at level 16, and the times halved with the prices staying the same.
Comparing the two, obviously one would be happier with having the times halved. I mean, who in the world ever thought paying double the price would make anyone happy?! Having the times halved means there's more I can do with my game (breeding finishes faster so I log in sooner to check and breed something else etc.), give and take the limited access I have to my computer versus my phone. So the bottom line is, I would feel happier spending gold on the account where times were halved. (Let's leave out purchasing gold for now as it's a principle matter related to android and irrelevant to this topic.) Conversely, on the account where the prices are doubled, I refuse to spend twice the amount of gold than previously needed so I am not ever speeding things up again. That also means logging in less often to check on my game. I think most people would agree and I don't think it takes a genius to figure out which scheme would benefit the game. Or at least let it stay the usual price please
That said, is there any co-relation between the level you're on and which payment scheme you're on to facilitate game play? Like for example, halved times for lower levels, normal price for mid-range and doubled prices for high levels? Just a hypothesis based on my two accounts, please correct me if I'm wrong. But if there was a co-relation, I makes more sense to me than just a random selection of who pays what.
I actually hoped it would be part of some beta-testing as of late last night. More likely than not it's here to stay, which I won't ultimately. Please TL if this a beta test, refrain yourself of giving androids\KF these beta tests. We don't have 50% of the game. One half baked feature won't make us at ease. This is an outrageous change and I've decided to never support TL again, by buying gold for any of their games that I play. Seems drastic, yes. However I'm fed up with poor communication (non-existent in my eyes) and implementing features in the middle of the night, like a snake.
As many others I've got double costs and not one thing halved.
