more due to using something like a multilevel queue for scheduling my tasks, with ab being of low priority, than due to being in a wormhole i guess (can’t exclude the latter, as I know nothing about wormholes). that sounds like a good explanation of the SHG, consistent with the phenomena; someone really committed to the game would reconstruct…[Read more]

i know of the santa hat glitch, but never played a version of seasons having it iirc. though i am interested in maximising scores (and to that end even wrote an ab-playing program; see the old, 2014ish, comments), i lack motivation to hunt for old glitchy versions.
