#PotatoFoolsDay v3 - Science rhymes with Compliance. Do you know what doesn't? Potatoes - Games

4.66% done.

[QUOTE=fenwick;29196684]It's probably not going to go much faster when kids get home from school, guys. The number of users online has already peaked, essentially. image[/QUOTE] I bet it's gonna be 2 times faster later today. Many people still don't know about this.

The audiosurf thing is icy_murderous_I right?

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;29196654]I don't go to school anymore, i don't have any homework :smug:[/QUOTE] Vacation here too.

I think that if we have 5% every 3 hours, it will take about 60 hours. This is a very rough calculation mind. Another rough calculation: we'd have to get about 4% every hour from now to get it done in 24 hours.

Everyone with TWEOTW Open, close it then restart it. We think playtime effects it and you can only update playtime by closing the game after playing.

[QUOTE=radu_iceman;29196779]Vcation here too.[/QUOTE] That too, but i go to a office instead, there's no point going to school for me, i already know everything they teach me :v:

This feels like a ploy to get more people to buy the Potato Pack.

Any tips on getting the cogs potatoes?

If valve don't release it tonight/tomorrow I'll be pissed. I mean sure they're offering to release it early but they're unfairly manipulating us.

[QUOTE=A B.A. Survivor;29196805]This feels like a ploy to get more people to buy the Potato Pack.[/QUOTE] Wish I could rate Captain Obvious.

I really hate cogs. I there an easier way to do this?

Really why they can't just release it or reduce the needed CPUs?

I just want to go to sleep, wake up in the morning (when the bank has updated my credit card) and pre-order Portal 2, then take a look on [url]http://aperturescience.com/glados@home/[/url] to see it has reached 56% and silently await for Portal 2.

[QUOTE=Artyom;29196519]If the people get out of school, that thing's gonna go to like, 4 hours.[/QUOTE] I think after I see that I'll will probably unlock tomorrow or sunday; once the weekends hits its going to go way up in terms of players.

I am disappointed if all this was for that

I don't think Portal 2 will be released early at this rate.

Shit how many potatoes does glados need I mean we've already got 141,063 fat bitch

It's been like 3 hours, and it's at 4%, for me it looks like this is going to be fast.

Oh my god. On tuesday, teachers have study day on my school. Which means entire school is out. Now, Portal 2 was originally supposed to launch at 4 PM in my timezone. But if it launches earlier I'll have the entire day to play it. This entire "release earlier" thing is going very fast! Fuck yeah :dance:

[QUOTE=tehMuffinMan;29196898]Shit how many potatoes does glados need I mean we've already got 141,063 fat bitch[/QUOTE] Her potato intake does not decide whether or not Portal 2 comes out. Having all the potatoes simply gives you a prize.

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;29196906]It's been like 3 hours, and it's at 4%, for me it looks like this is going to be fast.[/QUOTE] But almost everyone that's been following the ARG and has the Potato Pack have gotten the potatoes. It's going to be hard to get everyone else that hasn't been following to get all of them.

We need MORE POWER. ADJUST THE AUXILIARY THRUSTERS AND FIRE THE POTATO CANNONS! Lets get going people!

[QUOTE=Teh_Spork;29196885]I don't think Portal 2 will be released early at this rate.[/QUOTE] I'll just post this again to show that it could be released on Monday, at this rate: [QUOTE=Omolong;29196797]I think that if we have 5% every 3 hours, it will take about 60 hours.

[QUOTE=GreenDolphin;29196945]We need MORE POWER. ADJUST THE AUXILIARY THRUSTERS AND FIRE THE POTATO CANNONS! Lets get going people![/QUOTE] When this thing gets up to 88 potatoes, you're gonna see some serious shit.

[QUOTE=Giraffen93;29196906]It's been like 3 hours, and it's at 4%, for me it looks like this is going to be fast.[/QUOTE] But that graphs to around roughly 100 hours = 100%, way over the release schedule.

[QUOTE=Teh_Spork;29196932]But almost everyone that's been following the ARG and has the Potato Pack have gotten the potatoes. It's going to be hard to get everyone else that hasn't been following to get all of them.[/QUOTE] Does the amount of potatoes help? Isn't it just playtime? [QUOTE=GreenDolphin;29197003]But that graphs to around roughly 100 hours = 100%, way over the release schedule.[/QUOTE] Oh, it does. I really suck at math :rolleye:

If people idle the games with their pc's all night long, I think it'll be released in saturday through sunday.

[QUOTE=Omolong;29196959]I'll just post this again to show that it could be released on Monday, at this rate: Also, 4.86% now, fellow Portalers.[/QUOTE] It doesn't work like that. We wont always get 5% every 3 hours.

[QUOTE=Teh_Spork;29196932]But almost everyone that's been following the ARG and has the Potato Pack have gotten the potatoes. It's going to be hard to get everyone else that hasn't been following to get all of them.[/QUOTE] I have 0 potatoes. I don't own all the games in the pack, but I DO own Killing Floor, Audiosurf, Defense Grid, BIT.TRIP BEAT, Cogs, and Super Meat Boy. Time to get cracking. What are some of the easier potatoes to start me off? P.S. Supposedly idling doesn't work. Only playing does. That being said, if you find a way to get audiosurf to auto-replay the songs it will work.
