Do not reset right now. Cookie chains are badly broken and will give you uncapped exponential growth over a period of days and weeks. Who knows when Orteil will wise up and patch it.

I had about 30 Qa in the bank and hit a 7 Sx cookie chain. Aren't cookie chains supposed to be capped at 25% of your total produced or something along those line? As much as I love clicking cookies I'm going to feel like a fraud if my game glitched out and opened a gate to the heavenly chip cookieverse.

Cookie chains stop after you earn at least 25% of your bank. With 30Qa in the bank, the most you should be able to get is 66Qa. I'm pretty sure your game glitched out, though.

From the page's java script:

quote:

if ((Math.random()<0.15 || moni>=Game.cookies*0.25 || moni>Game.cookiesPs*60*60*6) && Game.goldenCookie.chain>5) Game.goldenCookie.chain=0;//break the chain if we're above 5 digits AND it's more than 25% of our bank, it grants more than six hours of our CpS, or just a 15% chance each digit

So now cookie chains are more likely to break (it used to be 13% this update and 10% before, now it's 15%), and they won't actually give you cookies worth more than 25% of your current bank, and they're capped at 6 hours of CpS, or about 2.5 lucky frenzies.

Since lucky frenzies happen more than 2.5x as often as max-value cookie chains, golden cookies are again the better option.

Post-nerf you can still get a 66 quad frenzy-chain if your base cps is over 440.6 bil and you have 266.7 quad banked. It's probably way too unlikely to justify that bank, but there you go.

Unfortunately it's not really worth getting. It gives the same bonus as the 200 cursor upgrade but costs 10x as much and is more expensive to unlock than the 100 condenser upgrade, which gives a lot more cps. Maybe it's a typo and he meant it to be +1000.

The pirate code is really more of a guideline, than actual rules.

You know you're in the endgame when a Frenzy+Clickfrenzy only banks enough to buy a single condenser. :shepface:

Almost time to reset for the 2nd time (going from 101 to ~200 HC!) and refresh to finally get the latest hotness. Just after I get the last 8 condensers....

I'm just glad I had free time during the cookie chain apocalypse, but not so much free time that my game is completely broken...

8000+ heavenly chips is just the right level of broken.

I'm pretty creeped out
Man I reset last night and this morning I just bought the chocolate heart motif cookie (have kittens already). I only have ~380 HC and it's just crazy how fast you get back up to speed.

I like to do the shadow achievements whenever possible so I did speed and hardcore, both of which were pretty easy. I'm pretty sure the speed baking will eventually become a regular achievement which is part of why I like to do them early: more OJ for my cookie machine.

Mark it zero!

I have 20 million chips. I cheated ovbiously.

But something that may also be relevant to honest people:

This last update has chanced things: before, there were diminishing returns in getting chips: you got less chips for a reset each time. But now it seems like each time I wait, say, 2 hours, the amount of chips for a reset is doubled. So it's accelerating now instead of slowing down.

Have there been a any livestream races of his game yet for charity or something? It's perfectly gimmicky enough for something like that and I could totally see it as a good excuse for people to throw money at a good cause. A bunch of nerds lining up to click cookies as fast as humanly possible.

Is there a way to re-enable popups? I turned it off because I was tired of the One Mind thing popping up each run, but I didn't realize it would prevent me from resetting, exporting, or importing a save.
