Follow Orders or Die! - Sudden Death

Follow the instructions, clicking only buttons you’ve been told to click. Never click a button unless expressly told to click it. Never click a button you've previously been told NOT to click! Clear? No? I don't care, get clicking.
Orders are listed in descending importance. Earlier orders trump later orders.
You must go in numerical order!

Oh no! Yes, you can click on them. You just never listen to them.

Well, if you skip earlier rules then some later buttons would make you lose.

Why does 21 say click the previous button yet when I click 20 I lose

you go in order, and 20th rule makes 21 wrong

Also 21 is a multiple of 7 and you're supposed to never do what those say

Well I see 3 now.

And reading the caveat helps.

Though I might add you probably shouldn't say "Never click a button unless expressly told to click it" because that implies that

being told to click means you must click.

However

being not told to click does not mean to not click.

The second implication is the converse error and is actually not listed in the instructions.

Therefore by the wording of the instructions, being told to do something implies you must do it. But being told not to do something does not mean you can't do it.

I see what you mean. I included the Fight Club thing to imply that the rules are in descending order of importance. I explicitly state that in the instructions now.

Technically, 13 doesn't have end punctuation. I suppose it doesn't matter because you have to click it anyways, but 29 implies that there is only one such button.

I stopped time after having only pressed a few buttons. I had completed everything else but I never clicked the very first button. This confuses me because it is the only one lots of people pressed but I didn't see anywhere any reason to press it. Can someone explain this to me?

People who start randomly clicking click it, hence the high percentage. #10 says “Click the first button,” though.

Great quiz, but the timing is a bit short in my opinion, I didn't even manage to get to read the last buttons, even less to know if to click them or not :)

I nominated it though.

Thanks! I added 20 seconds. I definitely want a bit of a time crunch, but 140 seconds seems fair.
