I think last time I posted this thread it was on the old forum. Either that or my scan of the current failed.
Either way, clicker games are certainly stupid timewasters, and today I blew 2 hours and 50 minutes (well, that is the total time it took, perhaps half was focused, the rest it was left to have the numbers going up in the background) on this rather charmingly fresh, but still deeply flawed (the game theory tournaments bit is so deep in an entirely pointless way) clicker game:

Not quite on theme for the thread, but Fidel Dungeon Rescue is a fun relaxed roguelikeish puzzler (though it is mean enough to put you on a timer to lose the moment you make a mistake). Should be considered by anyone who wanted to roleplay as a dog stomping on spiders in a heroic rescue attempt: http://store.steampowered.com/app/573170/Fidel_Dungeon_Rescue/
