the pyramid

a pyramid scheme paid in time. nobody is paid; time can’t be bought.

time can't be bought. one person, one account.

what am i looking at?

you
your clock is counting (the dot goes grey when it isn’t).
00:12:04.37
your total time here. it’s your score.
head start ×5 day 3 · ×1.2
your first two minutes count ×5; after that, coming back daily makes your clock faster.
half speed slow
after 2h in a day your clock counts at half speed, after 6h at a tenth. back to full at 4 am.
row 6 · #18
your seat: the row (1 is the top) and your rank among everyone on the board. below the 55 seats it reads “#56 · 1 place from the pyramid”.
+7 −2
places since you arrived.
↑ jo 41s ahead · you pass them in 1m 05s
your rival: the person just above you, how far ahead they are, and when you’d pass them at your pace. “↓” means someone below is catching you.
solid accent outline: you.
dashed: your rival (the person just above you).
dotted: someone closing on you.
open
lighter fill: an open seat. “open” marks the next one to be taken.
dot: on the clock now.
▲
backer badge.
k
someone’s tile. tap any seat for their message.
sponsored
the one paid line under the pyramid. anyone can buy turns on it; it buys no rank.
