Would you let me see your panties?
I started using MouseKeys to get more clicks out of a frenzy, and saw someone post the tip that you can hold down 5 and + to spam clicks. This works on one of my PC's but not the other, does anyone know how this is enabled? I can't seem to find anything in the mouse/keyboard settings or through google.

Mwaha ha HA ha!
Haha love that.

Hmm, so a frenzied click frenzy now gets me about 300Qa cookies... enough to afford one condenser and a few other buildings. Probably time to reset again.

edit: Without clicking golden cookies it would take over 5 days to afford another condenser. Starting at 73Qa the current condenser cost is 311Qa.

You're missing two +25% cookies, but you need 500 and 2000 Heavenly Chips to get them. If you don't have enough, you've got all you can this run.

Looks like you haven't amassed enough HCs to unlock the last two cookie percentage increase upgrades. I think you need 1,000 to get every one of them.

Shortest time seems to be about 1 second, you can resize the window though so that you're just mashing in a tiny square and will always get the next in the chain.

So I'm baking at 4 GCps and the remaining 999 teracookie upgrades will take ages. I would need to restart at this point with the heavenly chips, right? Right now I got none.

Pretty sure Speed Baking III requires getting a click frenzy, so it's not that feasible either, really. Speed Baking I and II should be doable, however, just click a lot. Didn't really use any special strategies myself, just buying things that seemed best for their price.

This is my cookie command center:



Columns A-H summarize my build. So far in this game I'm up only up to time machines, after doing my first reset and getting a measly 2 chips. The goal is to keep the marginal cost of CpS close to uniform for all buildings, using the most expensive building as a reference. Column H tells me what to bid on the other buildings, but I rarely need that because adding one of each keeps the build optimal.

On the right I have a few bonuses and their marginal cost of CpS as well. These are a bit underestimated because as soon as I upgrade a building I'll buy more of it, but close enough to use as a reference.

All I do is save up and then buy the cheapest CpS boost I can get. The building aspect of the game is pretty much over for me and if I don't get into pledges soon I'm going to quit from boredom. I promise.

Yup, Clicking Frenzy, which is really rare. The strategy I used (which I found elsewhere) is to click enough to get the first three finger upgrades at 10 cursor. You buy the first two, and get some CPS to offset the cost (though that doesn't matter much, really, as you'll get most of it through clicks). At 6-7 min a golden cookie will appear, if it's not Clicking Frenzy you reset and start all over again. If it is, click a handful of times, getting enough to quickly buy the 3rd finger upgrade (estimate it out before hand, but go a little over), and then spam click on the cookie. Be ready for this part, you'll want to be fast and not overshoot going back and forth!

I got about half a million (which apparently is slow), and then what you do is figure out the math on how much CPS you'll need to get the rest on your next golden cookie which will more than likely appear at the 12-14 mark.

Figure out this before for Lucky!; if it's a Frenzy then just throw all your cookies into what'll give you the most CPS in the time limit (no use wasting the Frenzy trying to figure out the maximum amount, it's not worth it). You'll want to find a good medium between those two outcomes happening because if you don't have enough bank Lucky! won't give you enough, and holding onto bank to not increase your CPS means you could've got more cookies/buildings during those 6-8 minutes. If against all odds you get a Clicking Frenzy again, you probably will have enough just clicking before you worry about how much time you have left (maybe get "Plastic Mouse", though it'd probably be better just to get a higher CPS beforehand anyway).

It stinks to do, though, I'd just wait until he changes it again :D It only took me once, and I was pretty sloppy, but it was right under the wire, and I had a bad run of getting Clicking Frenzy over the amount of time, too, so it took forever.

If you spent time clicking golden cookies instead of writing some dumb spreadsheet you'll have to update all the time you'd have condensers by now.

I forgot to mention another lovely little pothole; because of how the first Heavenly Chip unlocker upgrade costs so little, it'll be the first icon or something. Buy it accidentally and kiss that run goodbye.

At what CPS do most people seem to think resetting is the best course of action? I am currently at ~2.4b CPS with no chips and the gain is dragging something fierce waiting to be able to buy more stuff (at 60 condensers and 77 Time Machines with everything else at 100 besides cursors(180) and grannies(161)).

How many chips will you get if you reset? If it's over 100 you'll probably want to reset now.

2.4 billion cps at 60 condensers seems really low, too. I think you're missing some important upgrades. I get about 3.6 billion cps using https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/73817062/cookies/cookies.html

I don't have the 50 condenser double, but have every upgrade up to The Elder Covenent so ~think~ I am on the right track.
