The game http://dragcave.ath.cx does not need a timer between link clicks, I think.

It does need to have the timer going where you have to wait before you get a credit for the click though, this tends to be a lagging website and it takes a long time for it to load.


I've reduced their timers.


I don't think that leaving the timer on will make any difference in this case. With the changes to the site (no frames), adding the timer won't affect whether your dragons get viewed or not. I'd like to see this timer removed, as there is no limit to how quickly you can view any dragons. Unfortunately, it has to be up to the clicker to let the page load fully, which is the same as any other game with security features.

It doesn't have to be up to the clicker, when frames are being put back with the games that allow them. This will force user to let pages fully load before closing it.
Frames were removed to make the clicking easier with the lag before. I've asked yarold if he has plans to put frames back, but he wasn't sure yet. There's a lot of games on the site that needs their pages to be loaded before a click will be counted in the game this is why frames were used on the site. Timers are needed to avoid users clicking the same link more then once before the first one has been counted.
Yarold has exams this month so his time is limited, I'm not going to mess up the timers atm.

Sounds good. All I ask then is that when frames are implemented again that there be no timer before the link is clicked, just after. :)

Now that the frames have been implemented will the dragcave timer be removed?
