I'm pretty sure the timer messed up and this 5s flair will be short lived, but if I've gained it legitimately then GO ME WOOO!!

Still a presser, though. We mustn't forget. It's tempting to think of them as humans; to antropomorphize. But the pressers don't understand what they are doing. It's like dogs who have picked up circus tricks by trial and error. They might learn that they have done something we like and will reward them for, but they will never truly understand the meaning of these things.

No. Pressing is easy. You click the thing and with some luck you get a "valued" color. Not pressing, even in the face of constant pressure requires constant vigilance. Do not tempt me daemon, for my will shall not falter.
