It's the time you need to wait, sorry.
Every frame (0.1 sec), it'll do a random number from 1-the odds_of_question variable, and if it's 1, Clippy will ask you a "question". Yay! I'll make this more clear in a bit...
By the way, over summer break I'll do a large update!
So, hold on tight! I'm going to release a devlog or something with the exact details... :)
