04/01 - I Sold The Site, Sayonara Saturday!

Hey guys/gals, hope the day was good. I just turned off the April Fools shenanigans so if you're tired of it hit F5 lol.

 

No word from Adaaaam yet ...been waiting all day. WTF you doing here anyways?

 

Thanks for letting me know.

and thanks for posting the hit I see you were able to finish in 28 min. I must be really slow or maybe the hits are different in some ways.

 

Collecting that last fat paycheck from the sale.

Depositing that 34 cents is gonna feel so good.

 

Fair enough lol and I have no reply haha good game sir good game

 

We should keep the coins going for the visitors, make it a perk to have them go away if they signup.

 

This was one of the only things I've applied to visitors too.. pretty sure we wont be seeing any new members to welcome for quite some time.

So do we get to keep the coin feature if we want to?

 

Code:

function gimmick(el) {
    var exists = document.getElementById('gimmick');
    if (exists) {
        //exists.parentNode.removeChild(exists);
        $('#gimmick').css('height', $(document).height());
        return false;
    }

    var element = document.querySelector(el);
    var canvas = document.createElement('canvas'),
        ctx = canvas.getContext('2d'),
        focused = false;

    canvas.width = window.innerWidth - 25;
    canvas.height = $(document).height();
    canvas.id = 'gimmick';

    var coin = new Image();
    coin.src = 'http://i.imgur.com/5ZW2MT3.png';
    // 440 wide, 40 high, 10 states
    coin.onload = function () {
        element.appendChild(canvas);
        focused = true;
        drawloop();
    };
    var coins = [];

    function drawloop() {
        if (focused) {
            requestAnimationFrame(drawloop);
        }
       
        ctx.clearRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);

        if (Math.random() < 0.3) {
            coins.push({
                x: Math.random() * canvas.width | 0,
                y: -25,
                dy: 1,
                s: 0.5 + Math.random(),
                state: Math.random() * 10 | 0
            });
        }
        var i = coins.length;
        while (i--) {
            var x = coins[i].x;
            var y = coins[i].y;
            var s = coins[i].s;
            var state = coins[i].state;
            coins[i].state = (state > 9) ? 0 : state + 0.1;
            coins[i].dy += 0.05;
            coins[i].y += coins[i].dy;

            ctx.drawImage(coin, 44 * Math.floor(state), 0, 44, 40, x, y, 44 * s, 40 * s);

            if (y > canvas.height) {
                coins.splice(i, 1);
            }
        }
    }

}
gimmick('body');

lol nice one @Tjololo

 

Glad you liked part 2

For those who didn't figure it out: My hit today was an april fool's hit. It was set to return itself as soon as you accepted it. Doesn't matter if you hit return or not, it was gone as soon as it loaded. Sorry if you ran into any other trouble with any hits, it was all in good fun!

I'll try to have a consolation prize up for the people who tried on Monday. Can't guarantee anything, but I'll give you all a custom qual and set up a hit if I have the funds.

Happy April everyone!
