OPTION BASE 300
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

An interesting read actually.

0 - 549?
Also, 300 sounds better than zero. I think some people might do themselves in if they saw zero.

If your score's that low, it would probably be a good thing if the owner of said score was relocated to the bottom of the food chain.

No - that's already worked out:
Keeping finagling the scoring criteria so that each succeeding generation doesn't realize they significantly dumber than the one that preceded them.

JavaScript timeouts, I mean. I'm trying my hand, for the first time ever, to do more than is necessary script. I'm developing a browser based flash-card game, and although I'm building up through independent functions, once I remove redundancy they all become temporally dependent, e.g. once started, the game uses timers to:
- Pause before showing the first card in a round
- Only show the card for a short time.
- Hide the card and show the multiple choice answer card for a medium time
- Repeat
Each timer triggers the next, in simple code, so it looks like my final code will look like a spiral to hell with nested timeouts. Unless I Really put my mind to it - it could use a break from my perennial nemeses, the little layout/css snafus.

May wanna think about that design man. In years and years of JavaScript I've never had to nest or chain timers like that... ever. Promises or events yeah, but not timers.
Jeremy Falcon

Promises are the way to go.
Something like this:
function wait(timeout) {
return new Promise(function(resolve) {
setTimeout(resolve, timeout);
});
}
function waitFor(timeout){
return function(result){
return new Promise(function(resolve){
setTimeout(function(){ resolve(result); }, timeout);
});
};
}
Usage:
wait(2000)
.then(function() {
alert("Thinking...");
return 42;
})
.then(waitFor(1000))
.then(function(result) {
alert("The answer is " + result)
});

I'm the one that up-voted this, but I would like to add a suggestion. If his intent is to do simple animation with this, he's much better off using CSS3 animation with keyframes.

Thanks, Jeremy. I do plan to do basic animations, like a e.g. rapid fade-in of card as it is flashed on and fade-out when it gets "turned face down" again, but my main concern with timers is game logic. A visibly reducing wait until the next card is shown, then a very short wait while the card is shown, etc. Also the time the player has to choose an answer must be limited, quickest answers tracked, all that spade work.

Sounds cool man. I hope it comes out awesome.

Also, if your intent is simple animation, delay the showing of a card, etc. you can use CSS3 to pull that off with much less hassle.

It was going very well and the doctor was well pleased, but I was wasting away eating the cardboard and water. Down to 82kg at 188cm, like an anorexic AIDS victim. Been eating and drinking everything for the past few months but no lollies, chocolates, ice cream etc. Will have to go back to being good for a while though I'd like to find a middle ground. I can't just eat 3 meals a day, my metabolism is still to good for that but having to wait 2 hours for a blood check seems to dictate that's all you can do.
