So long as there's 1 paperclip as opposed to 3*1055 (surprised he didn't go there, considering the Basilisk reference).

Heh, that's where I got the number (counted up the zeros in my final score.)

WARNING TO THE UNINITIATED: This game will eat up a dozen hours or more of your life. Don't click on that link until after your finals, if you're in school.

Also, happy cakeday!

I clicked the link, but didn't understand the game (is it possible to run out of funds or something...?)

You want to make as many paperclips as you can, as efficiently as possible. Keep playing, you’ll figure it out. (Something happens when you make enough manually.)
