Hey all,

I just wanted to open a brainstorming post for possible future variations on the game.
Note that this is just for fun and that i hold no weight toward game decisions.

Here's a couple ideas floating around in my own head, what's in yours?

  • Speed click: First team to press 100* times wins
    *Obviously this should be calibrated based on expected participation
  • Short timer, for length: No teams, only community effort to make it last as long as possible but the timer is shorter
    Perhaps instead of short timer, the press value degrades over time. Basically a sub-a-thon, tbh
  • Lowest score after 24hrs* wins, but still have to keep the game alive until then or else nobody wins
    *Needs calibrated for feasibility

Consider adding orange as a team.

Edit: Citrus lovers, don't let any clown appropriate the colour. Remember tangerines.

Can someone confirm if we have the technology for something this crazy?

I'm not sure that's appropriate to discuss here. ๐Ÿ‘€
