Paperclips game
« on: Thu, 19 October 2017, 01:00:40 »
Anyone else find themselves obsessed with playing it?

http://www.decisionproblem.com/paperclips/

Right now:
Paperclips: 137,744,829,354,811,000
Clips per Second: 466.00 trillion

I even dreamed about paperclips last night :eek:

Mind you, those figures are hopelessly out of date by the time I've typed the rest of this!
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

I'm playing it at home too (got in trouble for that last night - late for bed), but I haven't got as far as launching the drones yet.

The game is so different.

I don't know what's happening any more.

After you posted that link in the other thread, I had played it for a few hours and left it running all day. Then I accidentally closed out of the window/sad. Probably for the best haha

It's always nice to see an incremental game, that isn't a bad clone of Cookie Clicker. (Okay, the list is very short actually: it's Trimps and other but lesser Civ clones.)

Unfortunately, it's very poorly optimized and doesn't even appear to support saving (either through an exported string, or local storage). Yeah, I'm spoiled by Trimps and Cookie Clicker.

It saves your progress and continues on next time you open the tab.

Yeah if I don’t get any % of universe explored then I’m giving up. Already have trillions of probes exploring while I stamp out the drifters.

Good on you for going for round 2. After I reached 100% I just eliminated the drift chance and called it a day. That said, it was 8 hours well spent.

My limiting factor right now is how much yomi I can gain. Is there any strategy that yields more? or are they all pretty much the same?

tbh, in the beginning not too much. basically wait til you get the perk that automatically runs tourneys for you. Then you just leave it on lol.. day and night..

I should add I'm on play through 2 lol
Good on you for going for round 2. After I reached 100% I just eliminated the drift chance and called it a day. That said, it was 8 hours well spent.

well it's relatively passive, I just leave my browser open at home lol. Anyway, in the upper corner it keeps track of world and sim level. I'm on world 1 sim level 2. I don't know that it's any different than the previous one, I wasn't paying attention before, however I'd like to see if it says anything different this time around. If not, maybe I'll call it quits. whooooo knooooows

I've finished it twice now (once at home, once at work).

A colleague also finished it, but opted for a different ending, so I've got to play it through again to experience that ending too.

lol did you just leave it on?

I screwed up, it let me reallocate my points, so in order to cut the game short I dumped all my points into the max operations points stat, but I was one short with 69, so then I had to sit there and make a bajillion clips until I hit my next talent marker. I managed to slowly turn it around with 2 points into processors.. ugh gonna be awhile.

It was left running overnight once or twice.

The first time was not long after I started playing.  I had the investment thingy running and the next morning thought I had around $300K, but it turned out to be $300M!

I tried leaving it running over a weekend while exploring the universe, but it was still 0.0000000000000% on Monday morning.

I thought maybe Paperclips was a ploi to mine cryptocurrency through the browser but after a time of loading my network remained silent and my cpu/gpu unspiked. The can have all my furry cookies. It's fine.

An interesting thought, I hadn't considered that.

But I also didn't notice any unexpected bouts of network traffic or spikes in CPU/GPU usage/temperature.

And that's with sometimes 2 or 3 games going on at once.

"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada

What does the Quantum Computing do besides increases the Operations?


Edit: Worked it out: increases the Operations above the max to open up the relevant Projects.

Reminds me a lot of this shark game I've killed too much time with: http://cirri.al/sharks/

Legit quote in some of our source:

  //

You worked on the shark game?  I had the whole office playing for two weeks solid.  Very amusing in addition to being addicting.
