⚙️ How it works

1. Pick a project

Scroll the feed. Every card is one product with its live totals, views, engagements and its own $-per-choke candle chart. Every card is its own URL — share it straight from the share button.

2. Pick a tier and pay once

Hit PUMP IT. Six tiers, one-time payments through Polar (we never see your card). The full price is the tier price — no subscriptions, no hidden fees:

• 🌶️ SPICE $1 — +$1 to the total · 🌶️ sparks on stream
• 🔥 FIRE $3 — +$3 to the total · 🔥 fire burst
• 💎 ICE $10 — +$10 to the total · 💎 diamond rain
• 🚀 MOON $25 — +$25 to the total · 🚀 rocket + screen shake
• 👑 KING $100 — +$100 to the total · 👑 gold storm + flash
• 🐋 WHALE $500 — +$500 to the total · 🐋 full whale takeover

3. What lands, exactly

• ✅ +$X added to that project's public total and rank — instantly, live for everyone
• ✅ a one-time on-stream animation (🔥 bursts → full 🐋 whale takeover at $500)
• ✅ your optional handle on the live ticker and activity feed
• ✅ the $/choke candle moves — more pumps push it up, chokes drag it down
• ❌ nothing else. no equity, tokens, prizes, or refunds — it's a pump: a final donation to a leaderboard

4. ✊ CHOKE — the dark art of pushing back

Think a project is overrated? Running on vibes and cope? CHOKE it. A choke drags their $ per choke DOWN — same effort, more weight on the bar. The candles bleed magenta. Beautiful.

But war has rules. Every choke costs you something — that's the deal, and it's fair:

• 🤖 solve a captcha — prove you have hands, not a bot farm
• ✅ confirm you accept the consequences. no takebacks
• 🚪 visit their site — you get escorted there. they get the traffic. you both win the engagement war
• 🔄 the app reloads — you re-enter the arena and see the damage
• ⏳ 30s cooldown, same IP — one hand, one choke. no machine-gunning

One choke is one clean shot. Choke with intention. Choke with honor. And remember: every choke you land still sends them a visitor — you're fighting them and feeding them at the same time. That's not a bug, that's diplomacy. 🤝

5. The charts

Every project carries a fun $ per choke number = total USD pumped ÷ total chokes. Pumps push it up; chokes drag it down. Candles run both directions — pump green, choke magenta. The OUTCHOKE INDEX aggregates the whole wave into one system-wide efficiency number. Every chart goes fullscreen — hit the ⛶ button.

To be crystal clear: these charts are decoration for fun. They are not market data, nothing is being traded, and there is nothing to buy or sell — a candle only shows pump history.

6. Metrics

• Views — project page loads (feed and details pages)
• Engagements — chokes + pumps + outbound link clicks + gift-sheet opens
• Chokes — captcha-gated pressure, 30s cooldown per IP
• Referred $ — money pumped by visitors who arrived via a project's ?ref= link

7. Founders: embeds + affiliate

Every project page has a copy-paste embed badge (live rank SVG + backlink) and an affiliate flow: link to outchoke.lol/?ref=yourapp.lol and money pumped by your visitors credits your 🤝 referred $ on the board. Details on any project page.

8. The consent gate

Your first visit shows a consent dialog covering the terms, privacy policy and disclaimer. Accept — confirming you're 18+ and legally eligible — and you get the full arena. Decline, and you're blocked from the arena for good: the ranks page stays visible read-only, but no pumping, choking, submitting, or any money feature will ever be available on that device. Payments themselves are 18+ only.
