Thread: Fap CEO

This game basically requires an auto-clicker. I resisted it for a while, but I eventually realized that you can't get anywhere with even manual clicking (at which I'm more patient than most...I cleared every achievement in Crush Crush totally manually), let alone idle.

It's poor design philosophy to make a game require third party software not just to dominate, but to even compete...but here we are. And while I'm not dominating since using the auto-clicker, playing the game has lost a lot of the engagement factor for me. Ayumi's sub-event was completed after the first tournament, so I just had to wait for the next phase to begin...and even now that we're into it we're still collecting yarn balls. Events have gone from 'set alarms for every two hours so I don't miss a chest collection' to 'meh, I just auto-click to my key limit and turn it off for the rest of the day.' Both extremes are annoying.

Yes, very true, manual clicking basically gets you nothing beyond a busted mouse. The developers are officially ok with auto-clickers, so long as they're dumb (no automated controls, just clicking brainlessly where you place the cursor). I do think that since they put a rate limit on clicks, it would be reasonable to have an official clicker baked in like I've seen in some other games.

Let's be honest, the built in play options are minimal, and not unique. There is no real competition, you can't interact with other players or influence what they receive in tournaments. Nothing special for first place, nothing for 1000th place, it's just you against an arbitrary score chart that rewards you with some stuff on Sunday night for participating. The "competition" of tournaments is you competing against the game itself, not against other players. Having a scoreboard with other names on it doesn't change that, unless you reallyreallyreally care about bragging rights.

You can, of course, make "playing" the game all about setting up automated tools to maximize your gains. For a certain kind of person, turning the whole thing into a puzzle for automation with occasional artwork as a reward can be fun. Doing such a thing is not officially sanctioned, but I'm absolutely certain that people have been doing it without any consequences. That could change without warning, there are no guarantees when you're doing something that's officially not allowed, so you're technically taking a risk if you head down the automation path.

I would never encourage anyone to go against a game's terms of service, especially if it's a game I play. That said, if you want to set up automated mouse/keyboard scripts for any legal purpose, I've had a good experience with the free tool Pulover's Macro Creator for several years.

Just to be clear, I wasn't advocating automation, just a dumb autoclicker. Mine's only sophisticated aspects are that you can swap between 'click where I put the pointer' and 'click on X,Y coordinates,' and which mouse button to click, neither of which I ever use. It does allow as short as a 25ms delay between clicks without giving the game the vapors, but I'm sure mine isn't the only one. Whatever...it works.

I have no interest in any challenge of automating gameplay...just choose which to click, chests or my current highest income seat, then set and forget.

Anyone else not getting puzzle pieces for the daily quest? Happened to me last event too.

I got my puzzle pieces, but twice this week the daily roulette and key reset didn't happen for me.

Are all Nutaku games down right now or something? Every one I load up freezes right when gameplay should begin.

There is an annoying bug in the game that happened to me many times in the past:
If I have the game open during the daily reset time, I sometimes don't get the daily stuff. It definitely affects the free spinning wheel and the daily key reset - not sure about other things like daily quest.

I complained to the devs a while back- they sent me a few extra rubies. But the bug kept happening every now and then, so now I just make sure to shut down the game right before the reset time, and start it after.

Yeah, t's happened to me before as well, though not twice in a week. Unfortunately, reset time is in the middle of the night for me, where I have an auto clicker collecting the daily keys while I'm sleeping.
