I clicked the link and that was actually pretty interesting.

Apparently they only take into account up until the 1st of December or something because I've been playing a lot more than what they've given me, most of which in the last two or three weeks.

With a touch pad, not on touch screens.

So far we haven't figured out a way to "right click" with a touchscreen in the way you can with a mouse. The long press just isn't as fluid.

They're doing DLC? Then it's got to be Factorio Space Age.

Your last sentence is an example of the Boots Theory

The reason that the rich were so rich, Vimes reasoned, was because they managed to spend less money. Take boots, for example. ... A really good pair of leather boots cost fifty dollars. But an affordable pair of boots, which were sort of OK for a season or two and then leaked like hell when the cardboard gave out, cost about ten dollars. ... But the thing was that good boots lasted for years and years. A man who could afford fifty dollars had a pair of boots that'd still be keeping his feet dry in ten years' time, while a poor man who could only afford cheap boots would have spent a hundred dollars on boots in the same time and would still have wet feet.

What do you think mines are supported with?

Yeah I thought he was blushing

Rust. I think it's supposed to invoke a metal plate with rusty edges. Hence the 4 screw holes (heh).

Some games fix this issue by making the player trigger the change they want and bring the fight to the big powerful threat themselves, on their terms.

Yes but even in this scenario it's a bit strange that the threat in question is just twiddling their thumbs waiter for the player.
