Wow, I've always wanted to try AAaAaAaA, but I spend all my money on portal 2 :c
Watch us get it to release like 5 hours early and then Valve ends up delaying it by 5 hours due to Valve time.

Almost the same situation here, but I spent my money on parts for my computer instead :(
So hold on, what does that green number mean?

I thought the black countdown was how long it took until its released normally, and the green one is when we will have it by. But now people say we only shaved an hour or so off the release date, so I'm a wee bit confused.
I haven't been trying to get myself too excited, so I haven't really been following this whole thing very intently.

Which is good, but i guess they would make much more if buying a game would actually help us out or at least not do the opposite.
I am sure I will be in love again come tuesday (at the latest), but right now I am extremely disappointed and even somewhat upset with how bad Valve handled the end of this ARG compared to the awesome phases we already completed.
The timer is currently 1 hour, 30 minutes and 28 seconds ahead of schedule. Before, it was 51 minutes and about 50 seconds.

What are you talking about? What green number?
I havent sen a signle Steam game come out at the time, so this probably will just have trouble until normal release or whatever - fucking bullshit.

The green number is the estimated launch time if we keep filling in the main computation bar at the current rate we're filling it. The black is when the game will be released if we fail. Filling the smaller bars knocks time off of the black bar, and serve as sort of a consolation prize if we fail to fill the main bar.

Geez man we get it, you don't like it, we don't need to hear it every 10th post.
That aaaaa! bar is going up faster then shit

Oh, thanks for clearing that up then.
The green countdown is the projected time the entire progress bar will be done and we will get Portal 2 released.
The "Projected Launch" in black text is how long until it releases if we all just stop working.
Each game we complete, the official release time gets an hour or so shaved off, like a consolation prize.
But if we finish the progress bar, we get Portal 2 asap.
K guys, weekend peak time is approaching
Why are people not doing Cogs or something? It doesn't require as many CPUs.

It isn't progressed as far and it probably doesn't even boost it that much.
[QUOTE=DrBreen;29221608]K guys, weekend peak time is approaching[/QUOTE]
The amount of people playing these games hasn't increased at all. There is no point in saying "It's the weekend". It's been the weekend for 15 hours and the total amount of people playing hasn't done anything.

To save time we should do AAAAA now, then Toki Tori, Then Rush, and then COGS
and leave the heavy userbase ones to the end (audiosurf, KF, Amnesia)

I concur with this, only because I have Toki Tori.
you guys will be disappointed because the games that are easier give less time.

I'm in europe currently and when i go to sleep, i almost bet that 2 games will get completed
and by around 10:00 in the morning GMT+0 there will be about 340.000 potatoes.
At this rate anyways..
Running smb in backround im helping
I've had Amnesia running since yesterday afternoon. I am helping.
So far it's been 1 game a day. Hopefully the other games will get to at least 50% by the time AAA... is finished. Or most of them get near to 50%. It would help greatly
[QUOTE=Meatpuppet;29221700]you guys will be disappointed because the games that are easier give less time.[/QUOTE]
Doesn't really matter at this point
Do you guys think there's actually any chance Portal 2 will get released early? Like a day or so not just a few hours.
Maybe, but I am not even convinced those potatoes do anything at all. If they actually work as a multiplier, we lost at lot of players since yesterday. The percent-per-hour progress actually dropped in the last 24 hours, despite a lot of potatoes being added (I believe they nearly doubled).

If it does release early I believe it'll be mid-late Sunday.
