So uh, looking in the code I found something terrifying about golden cookies:

Elder wrath can make negative cookie effects. A cookie remover.
"lose 10% of cookies owned (-13), or 10 minutes of cookie production - whichever is lowest"

And this:
"Clot : cookie production halved for 66 seconds!"


So why would you want to keep elder wrath active?
"Elder frenzy : cookie production x666 for 6 seconds!"
That gets added into rotation. If you're lucky.


Wait, what? What's Elder Wrath?

Anywhere. Any time.

They are all around us. Simultaneously everywhere and nowhere. Golden cookies bring us together, and yet, they drive us apart. But whenever you need them, at your most desperate, at your most dire, the golden cookie will come.

It is benevolent... for now.

So far there's been four +1% from clicking, the last one unlocking at 500 cookie clicks. How many of these are there? Is there one at 5,000 clicks? 50,000 clicks? How many clicks do I have to sacrifice to this thing?

For y'all have knocked her up
I have tasted the maggots in the mind of the universe

Or drown in my own shit

It makes grandmas worth buying again for sure.

Just fyi, One Mind seems to add +1 base CpS to grandmas for every 100 grandmas you have, not for every 10.

Almost, nothing. Alchemy labs give me 4000 cookies per second per lab. With all the grandma upgrades I have, Grandmas give me 19742.7 cookies per second per grandma. And that number will just keep going up as I buy more grandmas. And the boost to my cookies per second per cookie spent is greater when I buy grandmas than anything else, except for portals and time machines.

e: I am very passionate about cookies, as you can see.

e2: bought a few more grandmas and now everything else is more cost-efficient, save the farm and the alchemy lab.

Seriously. I was getting 500 billion per cookie, and they spawn really frequently with both upgrades. They were probably doubling or tripling my income.
