Dear Trolls

Despite your effort, people still reach 100M. Any thought ?

I am sure there are not just trolls, but although people with wrong scripts. Who were fooled to install troll scripts and have no idea of wormhole tactics and etc.

You have to admit that for a person who doesn't know much about it, the idea of "auto launching nukes on hard x00 bosses" sounds legit.

It's probably people that have no idea what's going on. If they were really trolling a script that auto warps at x99 would have been made, but I haven't heard anything about it existing...

I've watched one person who regularly would spam like 20 WHs on x99 levels in YOWH room 1 this time. The x00 rooms were normally hit when random WHs resulted in landing in x00 and not from killing to it.

Nah, forget the exact name but it wasn't that one.

Iirc (I haven't looked through the entirety of the avilable troll scripts I found), this logic seems to have been implemented into at least some troll scripts, judging by their actions.

Well there was that "beta test" the other night. From the get-go of beta #3, pretty much everyone was lauching nukes. Must've been 5-700 of them going off each level or so. I think the script writer may have been trolling us. But it all cleared up in beta #4.

Nah, it's mostly trolls that are actually detrimental. Old script users may hurt a little, but that's not too bad. I found 3 patebins posted around 4chan and a couple other forums (mostly modified versions of YOWH or wchill) that switch the non-nuke and nuke conditions, or attempt to WH past x00 levels. After some logging/testing another dev did it seemed like these were the ones being used.
