I mean, to be fair I seriously doubt anyone is legitimately going to purchase that many cycles, but also I get this error message when I click buy, the page doesn’t seem to crash: Maximum amount is 1,000,000 Cycles. ($10,000 US worth of cycles… 999999999999 cycles is actually $10 billion US… so there is almost no chance anyone will ever enter that number legitimately anyway).

I get the same result.

Mine says that the maximum amount of cycles is 1M, but no crashes.

Who is ever going to buy these many cycles in one go?

No one will buy that many cycles, but its bug as replit is not supposed to crash.

Mine definitely crashes. “Error 500”. . . though still, why would anyone to literally spend that much money on cycles!

I can’t reproduce this error, could either of your maybe send a screen recording using Loom or a similar service?

No one would, but its not supposed to do that.

Um, about that, I just spammed 9s, and after the number of nines reached over 10, replit crashes.

Same, just click the other option and spam 21 9s and it’ll crash (and for some reason round the 9s to 10 and add 20?)

What do you mean by that?

When you get to around 16 it rounds all the 9s up by 1 cycle and at the end of the huge number adds 20, so that now each 9 you enter is replaced with a 0

Oh, that’s. . . weird. Somehow, I didn’t notice that when I was spamming nines.

I will if I can find my mum’s credit card.
