OT time wasting

Oh Bruce! That is EVIL! Have you actually been able to change its color?

Only once - and by sheer fluke

I've just discovered that there's a trick to it. I've gotten it to go purple, brown, mint green. It feels like cheating, though, I have to say.

Light blue, red and bright pink. Not sure if I figured out the trick, but I can do it pretty consistently.

I suspect you just have amazing reflexes. Me, I have to hang the thing and sneak up on it.

If you bounce it just right you've at least got a chance, but I discovered that I could sneak up on it too and that was easier. What a fun way to waste some time.

I just got home and now I'm staring at the biggest, blackest, most ominous looking cloud and it looks like it's going to pour for a change. Will it ever stop?

If you use the scroll button to fling it upwards (the harder you flick the scroll button, the faster it goes), you can sometimes manage to click the ball itself. I've gotten it to change to 6 or 7 different colors.

The secret is to only throw it upwards and not too exuberantly. Then, you just have to wait for it coming down and click. After a bit of practice, you can click it every time.

It took me awhile to figure it out, but I finally got up to about seven colour changes. It's a matter of bouncing it like a paddle ball, and clicking on it as it comes down.

I can't do it.

I got purple and black and can not get it more than once or twice, I give up

Only way I can do it is to hang it at the top near the corner and come in from the side. But fun, anyway.
