I just wanted to post that I've been clean of cookie clicker for about a week. After a particularly rough bender of getting 100-200 of every item within a day and refreshing for even more heavenly chips, I could tell it was starting to take a toll house on my life and family and I closed that tab for the first time in what felt like an eternity. It felt weird at first to not have it running and even weirder to close my laptop at night or during work. If anyone else is trying to shake their addiction, I invite you to my 64-step recovery program.

Sindai posted:I use cookie monster so it's possible to do other things without missing many golden cookies. Yeah I do too. I just oftentimes get wrapped up doing other things and unlike what feels like most goons these days I only have one monitor. I'll get a second when I upgrade again but for now anything full screen means no cookies.

Did they change something because I can't get a cookiechain that gets me over 666,666,666 cookies to save my life, where a couple days ago I was getting 6 and 66 quadrillion fairly often.

I thought I read that the chain break chance went from 10% to 15% to 17% now. That makes long chains much more unlikely.

I've had two 666,666,666,666,666 chains in the last 24 hours, but of course it's possible I just got really lucky there.Eldercain posted:A man lies on his deathbed.

Everyone stop getting chains. I have yet to see a single one in my 500 or so golden cookies.

# ? Oct 7, 2013 22:18 |

I rarely get chains, and when I do, they break lower than my CpS. I do however get Clicking Frenzies quite often, sometimes even boosted by regular frenzies (but more often I'll get them right as it runs out). I've also noticed I tend to get them when I'm in the middle of playing another game, forcing me to stop what I'm doing for 30 seconds.

This game has twisted my mind into wanting to make cookies in real life. I made hilariously too many and gave a bunch away to friends/family. It begins.

So I've never reset. I have at least 100 of everything except condensers, of which I have 80. At first I was thinking of just holding out so I could get Centennial and It does matter! but it's sort of looking like getting to 100 condensers would take forever. I'd get 111 heavenly chips if I reset now. Should I reset?

It's surprising how fast you get back to where you were, especially since you can get a lot of cps from achievements via kittens and golden cookies earlier than you would on the first time through.

Antifreeze Head posted:You can never truly leave If you truly do want to leave open up the console and do "Game.cookiesPs = 10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000;" Leave that running for a few seconds, reset. Click the cookie fifteen times, buy a cursor, and your cps suddenly shoots to some ridiculous number due to all the heavenly chips you have. So you buy a bunch of cursors, fill up the the whole screen, buy all the upgrades available, buy some grandmas, buy 1000 antimatter condensers, buy everything. Nothing happens, you're just clicking over and over to buy things and your ridiculous cps barely budges at all, and you realize that this--clicking on upgrades and new buildings--is your reward for getting more cookies and it's boring as poo poo. Worked for me at least. Also, I don't mean this as an "I hate cookie clicker" post since I actually did get quite a bit of enjoyment out of it at first. I just think this is a legitimately good way to leave the game for good, even better than just wiping your save.

So what's a good point to do my first reset? I have a little more than 24,000,000,000,000 right now. I have 150 cursors and grandmas, and 100 of each building up to portals (and those I'll have 100 of in like an hour). Should I just wait longer because according to the wiki I'll only get 6 chips

I reset at just over 100 chips; I probably wouldn't reset for less than 50, but that's just me. 100+ chips makes the trip to 100 condensers bearable; once I hit that I'll probably reset again. (4 to go...)

I first reset at 157 and I feel like that was a bit too long. I think 100+ is where you wanna be.

When do you start getting these chips and frenzies? I have about 10T total cookies baked and never seen any one of them E: Installed the cookie monster and it has this cookie countdown timer. It hit 0 and nothing happened? washow fucked around with this message at 00:30 on Oct 8, 2013 |

Welp, it took 3 hours of sitting around casually looking at Cookie Clicker while I did other stuff, but I managed to get No-Click and True No-Click. Sucks donkey butt though that True No-Click doesn't count for anything and doesn't even give you milk. Just a little icon under shadow achievements.

I have about 10T total cookies baked and never seen any one of them Heavenly chips are the prestige system: reset your game and you get a % bonus based on all time cookies baked. Frenzies are a gold cookie effect. Gold cookies spawn like every 10 minutes by default, and clicking them gives you bonuses. There are upgrades at 7, 27, and 77 clicked that increase their frequency/duration that make them a really significant boost to your cookie production. Regarding the edit that's not quoted here, it should be linked to a gold cookie appearing somewhere on the screen. Sometimes the timer bugs out when you buy the upgrades but I've never had a false positive from it.

Guys, I clicked all the things. There are no things left to click. I feel like this is more of a cookie-waiting simulator now, since there's no planning and no achievements left. Except for those 7,777 Golden Cookies of course, but then my CpS is immaterial and that's boring. I could reset, but I'd want to at least double my Chips up to 600 so... yeah. I'm just waiting now. This is dull : ( PS: I want to click the cookie again. How do I reignite the passion?
