Spooky season is upon us!

[Lothbrok]

The event overall is nice, but I do have to inquire why the score for receiving the badge is what it is.
It seems a bit high, and sitting for long stretches of time to rack up that number feels more tedious than anything else.
That being stated, I do also acknowledge all the effort put in, and I do enjoy the fossil theme.

*Editing to add- the controls have been quite frustrating, at least for me. Using a mouse is agonizingly slow, and when using keys, the page will always eventually scroll down to the bottom, resulting in failure to complete a round. I don't know if this is a bug issue, or simply a problem with my laptop.

The game is available for 14 days. That means ~1800 points a day which amounts to about 4 games at less than 2 minutes each (closer to 1 minute actually according to the games I timed). All in all with a bit of luck the badge can be gotten in about an hour. There is no need to sit for long stretches of time, you´ll get the same badge in a weeks time as you would by gaining all points in a day.

That your controls seem to be acting up is a bit weird and I can imagine that to be frustrating. The effect you describe has not happened to any of us during our playtesting. Have you tried a different browser maybe? If the problem persists I would suggest making a bug report including your operating system and browser so we can try to replicate it.

I have tried a different browser, and have still run into the issue, albeit less frequently. I DO have a damaged keyboard, and so I've assumed that may be the issue. Especially since nobody else has reported a similar/the same problem. (I honestly thought my arrow keys were unaffected, but perhaps not.) Regardless, I appreciate the response.
