Ah, that's lame. Why not say auto clicking was banned? I would have respected that if it was stated as a rule. Also, my first few thousand clicks were legit, but I used the clicker well before 50k (I did watch it & play with it for longer than I want to admit, so maybe it wasn't as consistent as leaving it overnight). I did think about whether or not you had autoclick detection. I'm sure there's a way to add irregularity to make it harder to detect, but I don't think that's a fun program to write just for a jam game. Maybe that's just a never ending arms race as well. Anyway, I am curious what the GUI issue was if/when you figure it out. I assume it's something related to having the window open for over 24 hours.

If I had outright said it was banned, and told people when they were banned, they would attempt to get around it! By doing it this way, people assumed I wouldn't have any autoclick detection so only did it the naive way. I'm confident that the top 5 scores were all human clicks, which means the whole thing worked as intended!
I'll run some tests on the GUI issues, yeah, I'm really curious too 😂
