 At the height of One Million Checkboxes's popularity I thought I'd been hacked. A few hours later I was tearing up, extraordinarily proud of some brilliant teens. Here's my favorite story from running OMCB :) https://eieio.games/essays/the-secret-in-one-million-checkboxes/ Alright! I've finished a detailed writeup on how I scaled One Million Checkboxes to handle people checking 650 million checks (!) i spent more time writing this blog than i spent making the site lol More highlights + blog link below annnd one million checkboxes is over :) thank you so much for playing. running this site has been a chaotic delight. build more stupid websites! the internet can still be fun!! I made a website. it's called "one million checkboxes dot com". it has one million checkboxes on it. checking a box checks it for everyone. that's it. have fun!

@eieio I had a nice pattern going. Full width, 10 rows tall, diagonal lines every 3 spaces. Was adding an 11th row when others found my spot.  @eieio Even when jumping to a random checkbox over 20000, someone unchecks what you check. I put Breakout (aka Brick Breaker) inside Google Calendar! It lets you decline any meetings you shatter. blog info + chrome extension link in thread!

 @eieio Needs a top-bottom reversed version to facilitate getting rid of morning meetings!  Who needs Unity? I present: Flappy Bird in MacOS Finder. Complete with tap to flap gameplay, high score tracking, and marqueed banner ads. Blog w/ details: https://eieio.games/nonsense/game-11-flappy-bird-finder/

@eieio I am getting a tad too old and brain weary to fully follow this but from what I did understand this is fucking amazing. I feel less worried about the world. Thanks.
