Flipping back to the tab and seeing that I missed yet another Clicking Frenzy is all the shame I need. :negative:

EDIT: And also all the Clots and Ruins waiting for the Elder Pledge ability to unlock. I mean I could set it up so it doesn't autoclick Red Cookies but I'm not that much of a cheater. :colbert: They are my punishment.

If anyone else was having trouble with uncanny clicker, hit alt-shift-numlock. Your numpad + button is now doubleclick. This also makes you earn money twice as fast during clicking frenzies.

Or for even less :effort:
code:
setInterval(function() {
    Game.ClickCookie();
}, 1);

Yes, but my way isn't cheating. It's using the standard windows functions to click. And I'm still manually clicking. I'd say it's less cheaty than custom-mapping your scroll to count as left-click.

Sometimes you wanna click cookies, sometimes you just want to run scripts that auto-clicks the cookie for you while buying the optimal buildings with your dirty cheat-cookies.

I'm convinced orteil is at least partly retarded, because he responded to an ask on his tumblr saying that farms/factories/mines are too weak, saying they're early game content and they shouldn't be good, and all that garbage.

So what about cursors? grandmas? they're HUGE. It isn't until time machines that the two of them stop being cost effective with all upgrades. Meanwhile, farms lag so far behind it isn't even funny. 230 farms, the next one is going to cost 45 quadrillion. 230 farms gets... 4600 cookies per second. If it wasn't for all the % boosts it would never be worth it to have any. A cursor is the first thing you get, and a grandma is the second. Why can't the third thing you get, a farm, ever become remotely useful for anything besides increasing your building count and getting an achievement?

Well wasn't it said that eventually all the buildings will have extra content? If they're fun mini games I'll play them, regardless of profitability (though if they are vastly less powerful, I will probably not play them as much as my greedy side scolds my fun loving side).

Someone who's good at things should make some kind of script that runs a windows beep every time a golden cookie spawns. That way, I won't feel too much like I'm cheating by running an auto-clicking script, but I also don't have to stare at Cookie Clicker while I'm playing other games.

From the wiki:

code:
var gcbHasAlerted = false;
setInterval(function() {
    if (!gcbHasAlerted && Game.goldenCookie.life > 0) {
        gcbHasAlerted = true;
        var a = new Audio("http://www.soundjay.com/button/beep-1.wav");
        a.volume = 0.7;
        a.play();
    }
    else if (Game.goldenCookie.life == 0) {
        gcbHasAlerted = false;
    }
}, 100);

Grandmas weren't always superpowered, they got a big boost in the Grandmapocalypse update. Let's just see how it goes.

When does a "fun update" imply making farms and the rest give more cps? You're being stupid and arguing things that I'm not even saying. Stop it.

Rush cursors and grandmas, get 15 of each building till you get to time machines (for grandma upgrades), then start working your way inward from time machines and cursors. If you can afford a Antimatter condenser, get it.

Red Metal posted:

So I decided to crunch the golden/blood cookie numbers.

For golden cookies, here are the possible results, and your chances of getting them:
1) Gain 10% of cookies owned or 30 minutes of cookie production (whichever is lower): ~49%
2) 7x cookie production for 77 seconds: ~49%
3) 10x cookies from clicking for 13 seconds: ~1.66%
4) Start chain cookie: ~0.33%

For blood cookies, here are the possible results, and your chances of getting them:
1) Gain 10% of cookies owned or 30 minutes of cookie production (whichever is lower): 30.3%
2) Lose 5% of cookies owned or 10 minutes of cookie production (whichever is lower): 30.3%
3) Halve cookie production for 66 seconds: 30.3%
4) 666x cookie production for 6 seconds: ~3.96%
5) Start chain cookie: ~3.96%
6) 10x cookies from clicking for 13 seconds: ~1.16%

If you get chain cookie, it starts at chain 1, which gives you 6 cookies. After that, every golden/blood cookie you click, provided you don't miss any, increases your chain by 1. Chain 2 give 66, chain 3 gives 666, all the way up to chain 13. The chain breaks if you miss a golden/blood cookie, if you hit chain 13, if you had fewer cookies than what the current link gave you before you got the cookies, and there's a 10% chance of the chain breaking at chain 5 or above whenever you get it.

Dumb rear end posted:

I mean, it’s early-game content, shouldn’t it be less powerful than the stuff you get at the end ?
And, seeing that Cursors were always better than anything else even before grandmapocalypse, you come in saying even dumber things than he is. You couldn't possibly think that adding a few upgrades after the 50 farm upgrade and whatnot could be better?
