hmm i think ph should average up how many interactions are done during SCS and set the goals around that. the average so far is 1.6m interactions with only one of the goals being reached and it's the one with the lowest amount of interactions needed.
they should also analyze the average of participants. so far it's approx 1.2k.
the grand total of interactions needed for SCS is approx 3.3m
interactions per user cap out at 100k per day. i mostly see about 2k users online every 24 hours. so if everyone were to cap out their interactions for that day, it'd be 200m. however you also have to take into account how many are active each hour and actually playing and interacting.
there are also other things that should be kept in mind like internet speed or just the speed at which contents load. my internet speed is extremely fast (i can download beefy steam games within like 40 minutes) and i click insanely fast (thank u adderall and years of playing clickers). i did 1,356 clicks in ten minutes. that's roughly 136 cpm. but you can basically hear me clicking at like 3 clicks/second but the number of interactions in a row won't match the amount of clicks i've done physically on my mouse because the registration of my interaction doesn't load quickly.
on pokefarm, i can click about 5k+ pokemon within 10 minutes (maybe even a little quicker). this isn't me trying to compare ph to pfq, i'm just stating my capabilities when it comes to clicking and interacting. during pfq's last mass-click event (it spanned over 4/5 days 4th-8th) i did 226k interactions. my average was 45.2k a day.

what i'm trying to convey is that the goals for SCS is kind of....... unrealistic given site statistics and general common sense of player behaviors. 100+ people doing 300k+ interactions within 10 minutes just isn't going to happen when you also think about how many of those "participants" are just people who happen to be doing favor returns during that slot. i'm assuming maybe a little over half of the participants are actually clicking for SCS. but then again, i don't have access to those kinds of stats in order to analyze them.

the only goal that was reached was 170k with a little over 200k. And that was the goal with the second least amount of people. i personally would take that into consideration.

but yanno. i ain't the developer so i don't really know much about what's going on behind the scenes LOL. this is just my perspective when looking at the SCS screen.
