I posted a link to Twitter last night, but my new game is up.

I got one that had more than five answers, with the extra answers being repeated from the first five. They were all capable of being selected, and when I picked the correct one, the extra ones were also highlighted (I couldn't screencap that, it went to the next one too fast). And the next one had ten answers, too.

what browser/OS are you on?

Chrome and the most recent version of OS X.

Above bug observed on Linux + recent Firefox.

Hmmmmmmmmm, okay. Looking into this. I'm not entirely sure how this happened, but I'll try to prevent it.

Okay, tried a couple of different tactics, I think I have it fixed. Tests appreciated.
(The glitch would have showed up the first time the random number would be a round you already played. If you play like 20 rounds without seeing that, you're likely in the clear.)
-
I've had several rounds where there is no correct answer. This is on an iphone, using safari
-
I'm 90% sure that's old JavaScript you're running, cause I'm pretty sure I fixed that. Try a refresh.
-
Just tried it out, played 30 rounds with no bugs. Seems fixed.
-
40 rounds, no problems!
-
Love it. Hate it, because apparently I am psychically in tune with idiots.
-
I guess I won? Good for a laugh. I didn't have any real problems with it besides a couple that had dupes of the same answer. I'm at my work computer running chrome on a windows 10 computer.
autocompletes for "Is God a" and and "Is the mo" seem humorously counter intuitive.

is god a just added.Also is everyone and can i marry.
-
I can't remember if "can I eat" is on there, but it's pretty good.
-
big update
The game now keeps persistent scores. Game over screen created. 125 rounds.
-
I had no idea people were this curious about Jews and misinformed about Britain so thanks Lemon, I learned something from your game!
-
Been a while since I added new rounds to this. Anyone got queries to suggest?
-
Do I just post them here?
how should you
best dog
kinds of u
best place to be
anime where a
video game where
tv show where
how to stop being
in general the formula of "X where" is pretty good since you can just type a letter after where and get new strange results. try this with movie, or vine or video game (video game where you, and then a letter)

These are fucking delightful beat poetry.

Added a bunch of these.

I wonder how popular these are. I was talking to an acquaintance of mine and I noticed they had this game open in a tab. When I asked about it, they were familiar with both it and damn.dog but had never heard of the F Plus. That was quite a surprise!
EDIT: Oh, this explains it.

Both damn.dog and idiots.win have huge peaks and valleys in traffic. They've both seen days of more than half a million games played in a 24 hour period, and they can both flatline. Although, damn.dog is the more popular game, so it's low point is probably around 1,500 sessions, idiots.win can get down to about 200 sessions.
It's worth mentioning that basically ALL of this traffic, in both cases, is direct. There's a couple subreddits that must be bringing some people in, but basically all of the people playing the game are doing so because they typed my dumb url into their browser. Which is nice, but I'm guessing that means most of this traffic is still based on YouTube.... Mixed emotions on that fact.
ACTUALLY, while we're talking about it, does anyone know if PewDiePie (or someone similar) did a video on idiots.win on February 8th? There's a huge spike there, and it can't be explained by the videos I'm seeing in doing a cursory search.

You could go to altavista.com and perform a search!

That actually might have been me if it was the 8th. I posted idiots.win to a popular askreddit thread that day and it got a lot of attention.

Here are people saying things.
-
Jacksepticeye posted an idiots.win video today (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqHo2dlmEdw&t=326s), so expect an uptick in traffic.
-
After waking up this morning to find out that a react video was trending on YouTube, I changed the hamburger icons on both idiots.win and damn.dog to a (?) icon. Because clearly the reason that none of these YouTubers are doing even the slightest hint of attribution of the project is because the icon for learning that was unclear.
Right?
-
Lemon are you telling me that this video game journalism isn't ethical? After everything we've fought for?
-
I can't even find the darn video. I searched for idiots.win AND "Google Search Game".

I found it by searching "Google autocomplete game".

HI WE WANTED TO COPYRIGHT THE WORD "REACT" SO WE COULD MAKE MONEY OFF OF THE VERY CONCEPT OF "REACTING TO A THING"
NO WE WON'T CREDIT YOU FOR YOUR GAME. THAT WOULD BE STUPID.
JUST DON'T REACT TO IT OR WE'LL SUE YOUR ASS.

So many of these channels of dudes who release several videos of this stuff each day are hosted by dudes who are no longer interested in enunciating their name, their FUCKING BRAND, correctly.

to be fair, with how he speaks, I'm not sure he ever did enunciate it correctly, but I guess it's part of the gimmick

Necro'ing this thread, but now that just reminded me that the game that ripped off idiots.win even went so far as to use the exact same font in the branding.
ANYWAY, the actual reason for this necro was because it didn't occur to me until now to put a form on the site to collect submissions, and now I have (https://forms.gle/rUqgY6RYu6nbv2Hu9), in case that interests you.
If not, that's okay! I have other sites I could be working on anyway.
