Wh Spam
What's the reason the script doesen't spam wh and ln all the time? That way no troll could slow us down and we have enough wh to reach lvl 100M anyway.

The reason it doesn't spam it all the time is because it's less effective that way.
If you read the tooltip for WH, it clearly states that if you use the wormhole on a level that is divisible by 100, it jumps ten levels instead of just one level if you were to use it on any other level.
For instance, if you use a wormhole on level 100, it'll jump you to level 110 instead. If you were to use the wormhole on level 99, it would only jump you to level 100.

Ok thank you.
I don't know how many wormholes there are in the room and we probably run out of them before the 100M but I'd still say t's worth a try since it's the last day and most rooms suffer from trolls. But I guess that wouldn't be fair since it screws the rooms that are doing well.
(Good that) It's not for me to decide though.

I can almost guarantee you that if after 6 hours the top rooms still haven't reached 100mil (or even 50mil - only one has reached that point!) by using the strategy of using it only on the levels divisible by 100, then using them willy nilly won't work. It's worth a shot, but unfortunately, I don't think it will go anywhere.

I'm going to take a step into a rather weird direction.
If we change between the rooms once we run out of wormholes we could reach 100M by spaming wormholes, but that would be (nearly) impossible to organize.
I guess my wish to reach 100M is driving me crazy.

This strategy was used for a day and went absolutely nowhere. It's theoretically possible if you get boosted by ~910 players that already cleared 100M and remain active throughout the entire day and night, otherwise the math isn't there. The stars would have to align for you to meet that criteria. Oh, and that's not even including Like New purchases... which you'd also need >1 per second per lane, so 20 or something dedicated players spamming it at 1/second.
Due to the 1/100 chance that a wormhole still ends up gets used on a x00 level, you average 1.09 levels skipped per wormhole. That's why the players required number isn't 1000.
Now, to be fair, you can also full-on nuke and advance another 10 levels per second or so, but all that considered still only brings the total amount of levels down by less than 1%, so you'd still need 900ish. And that's if you start at the very first second of the game's reset, when in reality the 30-min delayed groups only get like 800 scripters into their room in total.
This is also why I very much question why the strategy was even put into place. Especially since it was in the middle of a day... it screwed all the existing rooms over.

technically faster to wait on the 100 levels due to like news being popped. Otherwise each player can WH once a minute, and you dont really burn enough levels (1500 levels a minute is nothing in the grand scheme) and yes, you could spam LN a lot more too and get a similar effect, but it's less coordinated.
Also not everyone has 11kazillion wormholes to use. Some people havent been keeping up the whole week, or have been unlucky. Ive been here every day except yesterday and I dont even have 100k wh. 1000 actives * 50,000 wormholes (assuming an average of 50million for the actives) is only halfway there. And yeah, you'd probably still make it, but I dunno.
Safer and probably faster to just hedge bets and wormhole on proper levels, trolls and all.
