The randomly appearing sprites are fun. There was times when I saw a sprite too late after I clicked a link. Using the browser back function will still show the sprite, but I'm not sure if clicking it would collect it. Never checked it actually. Otherwise this has no meaning at the moment and is just a fun little gimmick.

Do you care to collect those sprites by clicking it? How many do you have? There is no total count number, but its easy to count yourself. Open My sprites and show source with right mouse click "View Page Source" (at least in Firefox). Here we just use the search functionality of the browser with CTRL+f. Type in search field

src=""img/sprites/

and read how many matches are there.

I got 131.

I've only encountered 25. But I also joined a little later, so I probably missed some. Maybe I'm not as lucky.

I think its totally random, so its not like an event on some days. Everyone will get them (if I'm not wrong). I was curious if they appear out of sight too, meaning if they can be discovered by scrolling. Not sure about that. There are times when I don't get any and then times when they appear every few minutes. So my assumption is there is some kind of timeout for how many you can collect per day or like that.

As far as I'm aware, if you click back to a page that had a sprite you missed, it should count. Also, the sprite layer doesn't move, so if you scroll down the page the sprite moves with it, so if you get a sprite it'll always be immediately visible somewhere without scrolling.

Neat trick for counting! Honestly not wanting to sit down and count out what I have is the main reason I hadn't made a thread like this sooner. Anyways, I have 123 sprites thus far. There are so many Pikachus!

I got 24 yet, some combination of not being very active and also quite inattentive ^^. It's a fun feature though.

32 33 so far. I was about to post my reply with 31, but backtracked to the main page and found one more.

EDIT: Saw another one after posting my reply in this thread, but it was a duplicate.

EDIT 2: Caught a unique one after visiting this thread again! (Regigigas)

When I wrote my initial post here, I found several sprites while updating the Preview each time. lol Sitting at 141 right now. So officially I'm holding the highscore right now. ;-)

I didn't realize there were hidden sprites until I caught a Mario thinking it was a smudge on my phone :LOL:

About 134. I click them whenever I see them and actually realize they're there.

They're good surprises for sure. Keeps you on the site a little bit more in a fun, enjoyable way.
