    How many of you are playing this game? I'm addicted. I've been playing nonstop since mid-august with a reset/prestige twice.

    Here's the link if you don't know what it is: http://orteil.dashnet.org/cookieclicker/

    Basically you click the cookie, and for each click you get one cookie which you use as currency. You then buy pointers and grandmas to make cookies for you automatically. Eventually you buy mines, factories, and then time machines and antimatter condensers.

    Needless to say I make billions of cookies per second.

    Warning: It's VERY VERY addictive watching the numbers go up.

    Also, there's an addon called Cookie Monster which I started using. Can't play without it.

    You click the cookie to get more cookies to buy more buildings to get more cookies to buy more buildings...

    I don't know, there's something satisfying about watching the numbers go and getting all the achievements and upgrades.

    Yeah...let's not talk about how long I've been playing.

    Actually I already mentioned it.

    Ritual Rolling Pins...why do I know this is just a bad idea to buy?

    Maybe I should ignore it and sell all the Grandmas. :garamet:

    But think about the extra cookies you get by purchasing it!

    "Ritual" is never a good thing. Never.

    And those grandmas say some dodgy things sometimes as it is without throwing in "ritual" rolling pins. :shep:

    I restarted last night.

    I got 555 heavenly chips, 98% of the achievements.

    I already have almost everything I had buildingwise when I reset. It goes so much faster the second time. I also accomplished the True Neverclick shadow achievement.

    How can something so simple and mindless be so addicting? :tamarwhuggles:

    You can import your save to the beta. Also, if you switch back your save will likely still be there.
