Say we ban all non Left click runs, do we just throw out all of the runs that were done without one? I'm on board with whatever the community wants to decide on if we want to vote or come to some sort on consensus. I still think the easiest method would be to require Mouse cameras even though it makes the run a lot less accessible to runners.
I'm personally on the side of Left clicks only, simply because mouse wheel is way too hard to verify sometimes. also it make thingss more skill based.
Ask Poyo int he discord, I'm not entirely sure as I haven't looked at ti yet.
The rules have now been updated to be more understanble and clear. I will post them here as well. If you need further clarification or think I may have missed something, please ask.
-All runs for every Category must begin with a Wipe Save. Even if it's a new game already. Wipe Save resets the Golden Cookie timer.
-Timer Starts on Wipe Save and ends when you reach the Category Goal.
-Timers are not required but heavily encouraged. In game time only updates every 5 seconds and stops tracking seconds after an hour.
-No Add-ons are allowed.
-No Auto-Clickers are allowed.
-No Dev Console/Javascript editing is allowed.
-No Opensesame.
-No glitches or bugs are allowed.
-If a run is done during a Holiday even, it must be categorized under the appropriate Holiday category.
-You may change your computer date to do holiday runs or even to get out of holidays, however, you may not change your computer date mid-run. It must be done before the runs starts and cannot be changed back until after the run is finished.
-The Stats screen must be present for a majority of the run and Everything from "Cookies in Bank" to "Golden cookies" must be visible. 40 Achievements runs must display the achievement counter a bit further down. Turn on Fast Notes in the settings so make achievement pop-ups go away faster.
-Suspicious runs are up to the Mods to decide on. If a Scroll-wheel or Mouse-button run is submitted and looks like an auto-clicker the mods may ask for further proof, such as video and sound of your click method. Webcams, microphones and Mouseotron are NOT required, but will severly help in the verification process.
I've posted a bunch of new resources to help some people out. Including a bunch of different cookie clicker builds, Links to Mouseotron and XMouse and also Poyo has been working on his Cookie Splitter Program for 1 Million cookies which he has provided for us.
Furthermore, we will be rewriting the rules to be more clear and cohesive. With the HUGE influx of new runner I am being bombarded with questions, complaints, fake runs, Runs that break existing rules, runs that bend the rules and everything in between. They're going to be longer and stricter.
Also, we have added in a new Mod and will be adding in another one soonish.
No, but there's no way to disable NGC for a single catefory. Although it is possible during Christmas Season i think?
we have reorganized the boards a lot. Now each category has 2 sub categories. One for Golden Cookies and one for No golden cookies. Please take note of this and submit your future runs accordingly.
There is still no good way to organize the holiday categories, so they will stay the way they are for now.
After some careful thought I have decided to remove the #1 run from the 1 million cookies leader board. The video has since gone private, and there is no evidence that the person who claimed the run is even the original runner. Furthermore it is their only ever submission to SRC which makes it even more fishy.
Please feel free to dispute this decision as I'm open to discussion, but I think this is the call most people would want anyway.
I'm completely open to adding in new categories or Fastest building purchases, Also if you want to do a 69 Cursor run, just record yourself doing a run and I'll do some category extensions for you.
Add-ons would be stuff like Auto-clickers, adding or editing code. Mouse-wheel is allowed and there's even a mouse option for it in the submission form.
Due to a high influx of cheated or suspicious submissions lately, I have updated the game rules to be as explicitly clear as possible. If you feel I have missed anything or need verification on something, please ask here or int he discord.
So this was discussed int he discord, but for those who haven't joined yet or don't want to. We have added in Click types and Webcam as options for submissions. This way we can sort by whatever we want. I think it's a good compromise for the different ways of clicking people use.
As per request, I've created is a discord channel. It should be easier and faster to discuss things here.
I think coldwater is using mousekeys, because there are brief stutters in the clicking, it's not consistent. But at the same time, he is using a microphone and I think it would pick up any actual clicking noises... But this is a good example of why we need these rules in place.
Here's a link to Mousotron too http://www.blacksunsoftware.com/mousotron.html
I want to come to a general consensus on what forms of clicking we are going to allow before i reject or accept any more runs. there's so many different ways people are trying to get around actual clicking to a point where it's difficult to tell what's auto-clicking and what's not.
Besides actual clicking. Do we want to allow -Keyboard buttons as clicks. -Mouse-wheel clicks.
I personally don't think we should out of sheer difficulty to verify it's a legit run, but also it's kind of defeats the purpose if you ask me to not actually do your own clicking. Thoughts? Arguments? For or against? Let me know what you guys think.
We're kind of up in the air about this right now. And it's sort of being discussed in another topic.
Just got another obvious auto-clicker. Claims to beat previous record by 10 minutes lol
