When you boil down a lot of online games, you are basically being rewarded for clicking the screen over and over again. Not that there is anything wrong with it necessarily, so long as you know what you are doing. The people making the games know.

The unknown forces behind Click Your Life Away know too, but were kind enough to spare you the cute design, shallow story lines and incessant baiting to buy-in. The object here is to click in the box, and Ape Con Myth wants to take you on!

The contest? Click as many times as you can. The stakes? Whoever is in the lead Friday, February 10th at 5pm PST wins a free Ape Con Myth t-shirt. Contest entry will be tracked in the comments, so please include your email and tell us your username* if you want to win. ACM has started a new account for the occasion, so don’t worry, you’re not already 5,000 clicks behind.

WARNING: Refresh the page if you let it sit for a while!!! It WILL have logged you out, but pretends to still be keeping score. Otherwise, it’s as simple as it goes. Good luck!

[*Work "ape" into your username for non-redeemable style points.]

Looking for something to track this month that doesn’t involve you eating better or exercising more?

Better understand your caffeinated ways with this DIY print from Column Five Media, on which you can paint the results using your coffee. If your wallet is light (and your eyes are good), you can try working with this preview image and check out their blog for clues on what you can’t read.

Meanwhile, if you’re not the tracking type, Coop is here to let you in on a little secret that can make a difference every day of the year.
