Some lines of code are more useful than others. The lines of code that are added through the bar add little meaningful progress to the program. I'm sorry to say that some of the code added this way doesn't actually help at all.

I've been told every single line of code added to the bar is commented out, so we don't end up with an utterly unmaintainable code.

Perhaps we should send a good 30,000 lines of codes to Erik though, just to show him our dedication, and our tendency to take things a little bit too literally. I'm sure he would love it.

I think there are x lines of coding.
we now have 30613 clicks
and 57.5%
so TCB will have about 53240 lines of code.
Since we click like mad-people, we will reach the 53240th click soon.
and the bar will say 100%
But I don't think the game will finished then,

THEY'RE FOOLING US!!!

We have to stand up and we want answers!!!

Too many double negatives makes Michael do the Funky Chicken.

I've clicking that Bat, and I haven't had anything good from it for a loooong time. I've been looking on the statistics and it made me wonder... what's the number of clicks any one person can do in an hour? The average click I got was 10.28 seconds ( the quickest I got was 4.43 secs, from clicking the bar, pressing Ok, and waiting until the page fully refreshes, using a split time stopwatch.)

That's about nearly 60 / 10.28 = 5.836blah... 6 clicks per minute. Which is fair.

60*(times)5.836 = 350.16 clicks an hour. 350? It's a conpiracy. Or just strange magic numbers.

So I did it again. Got 483.

I'm serious. You will regret it if you do.

And this is why:

The bar is no longer in its exalted status (It has about 2000 clicks at present), but with about 31,300 more clicks, we should be able to "re-leet" it.

What are you waiting for? Get clicking!

The bar has been re-leeted!

Tar babies ain't be bar goodies, but merely a special message, unlike the extreme checkpoint I got earlier today. The irony! I click the bar like mad for days, get nothing, stop clicking for a few days, and I get the thingy on my first click.

I guess I shouldn't be complaining, though.

There are two different tar baby messages. Both come from bar clicks, but only one is a goodie.

Game on,

I found drod.net when JtRH was in production - yes, the previous bar. Now, when I saw another bar, dark forces taken over my mind and made me register to be able to click the bar.

Click, click, click, click...

Also, this is somehow linked to the bar...


...and suggests one of two things:

Either TCB has finally attained a grand total of 350 rooms so far (indeed a great achievement), and suggests that it will be absolutely huge when finished, or in fact, that the bar is misleading, and should actually read 350%.

The topic number, 377, and post number, 2133, may also have something to do with this. Maybe room 350 has the coordinates #21,33377, which suggests a return to the old-style coordinates, and more importantly that room 350 is on level 21.

Actually using old-style coordinates that would be the room 29N, 327E on level 33. So TCB is quite big then.
