No second bar please. I think, at this moment, one bot logging in constantly only to check the bar is more than enough. I'm not too sure the forum can handle another one.

Three of the known goodies to go. ;)

I tried every combination that included the combo "Halph - Evil Eye - Negotiator" when I had 6 goodies and 7 goodies (Seep, Halph, Negotiator, Spider, Evil Eye, Tar Baby and the seventh was a Checkpoint), but none of those were interesting. And I'm not too excited to start trying the remaining 5000'ish combinations that I've not tried with my current items.

By the way, what's the awakened eye called officially when you get it?

I haven't gotten any goodies yet either :?, and I have clicked over 400 times. I wonder how many clicks it took those that have goodies.

I've clicked probably about 10 times, and I had a goodie after about 5!

EDIT: 2 more clicks since then, and just received another goodie. :lol

Just got my second goodie! For posterity, let it be noted that both spider-orb and orb-spider are interesting arrangements.

And here's the scintilating mass of colors I got. Odd, don't you think?

What I was thinking that it could be a screenshot from DROD 3.0, and it's a colour changer/palette swapper for NPC's that are in the game. See the selection cursor? It could just be my overactive imagination.

Since a few other people have discovered the scintillating mass of colors (I even beat Doom to the punch, before I deleted the post <3), I thought I'd point out some interesting things I noticed about it.

ER ACK DO NOT CLICK SECRET UNTIL I HAVE MADE IT UNTABLE BREAKING

edit: yay, untable breaking

This is secreted because it is VERY VERY LONG.

Ooh, interesting.

I might be able to crack this one, I've gotten up to 74 on notpron, so I like to think of myself as clever. But it looks tricky. I'll get back to you if I find anything else.

EDIT:

The only problem I see with this is where to put the answer to the riddle. Unless...

If the answer is numerical, then it may be what click number will bump the bar up to 100% and publish TCB.

What do you mean? You don't need to be logged in to constantly get the bar results. In fact, I have a PHP script right here that will tell you the bar's status. Eventually I plan to make it work as a way to record goody giveouts, but for now I halted that for the race to 50000 clicks. There will be popups whenever it breaks 49900.

Nifty. But a far easier and more productive way to find out how many times the bar has been clicked is to click the bar :)

Yes. But, when I implement the scripting, it will be the least painful way to remember when the bar gives a goodie. Also, this way I can divert my attention using an auto-refresh script I have in Firefox to reload it and alert me when it nears 50000.

As long as my computer doesn't get turned off auto-refreshing the PHP page when tracking goodies (hence the page title).

EDIT: That works, but as you said, it causes troubles when dealing with multiple potions. IIRC the program code just has a flag to indicate whether Beethro is visible or not and then if the enemy is more than the scent range away and the flag is set to invisible it can't see Beethro.

On the topic of the evil knife guy, here's a better explanation.

Basically, he's the 403 error DAA protector knife face.

Schik is currently laughing his socks off, because that table was really just some random image found on the internet.

I just received a tar baby. Of the six combinations of three goodies I have, only TarBaby-Orb-SleepingEye is interesting.

If you're refering to me, it's true. I was running a script for a little while to check the bar, at intervals of a couple of minutes so as not to generate a huge amount of traffic for the server. At any rate, I ran it for a couple of days until I noticed a post that Schik had made a while back asking people not to do that. After I saw that, I shut it down. If I have offended, I apologize.

Apologies accepted. I was not angry about you using a script. I was more surprised that someone was on the board all day. I thought it was some beta testing for TCB...

Fortunately it wasn't. :P No, I was angry about that fact that I didn't have holidays, that's all. I don't have time to click all day anyway :)

Besides, I got many annoyed PMs from many people who think I was talking about them. I wonder, why would they all think I was talking about them?

But Shawn, you can have some mod points from me instead :)

Having just received a Halph, I can say that there are no interesting arrangements among Halph-Orb-SleepingEye-TarBaby. This is noteworthy, because I had an interesting arrangement before without Halph.
