10 ticks a second.
60 seconds in a minute.
10x60 = 600

...I think.
1 tick is 0.1 seconds.

This is off topic, but, do you play KoL?


On topic, so if each tick is 10 milliseconds, then 1 second is 10 ticks, so each minute is 600 ticks.

Yeah.
KoL = Kindom of Loathing, and yes, I did. :D
That's where I got my wonderful name from.

Yar, Boozer was owning with the Salty Dog bug, I can't believe they didn't ban him for that...

Boozer is probably the biggest donator, he has 100+ Mr.A's, how could they ban him?

Dude, he gave Jick money for those things, he deserves them. Each Mr.A is $10, so he donated over $1000. Plus he's a friend of Jicks, he's in the developer server and he has a MAHI FEZ.

No, each tick is 1/10 of a second, not 10 milliseconds. 1/10 of a second is 100 milliseconds.

However you are correct to say a second is 10 ticks, and therefore a minute is 600 ticks.

Wait, wait, 1/10 of a second is 100 milliseconds? I thought a millisecond was 1/100 of a second? Not 1000 milliseconds..

Does it even matter?

Milliseconds mean nothing to you, unless you're Neo.

A millisecond is 1/1000th of a second.
1/100=centisecond
1/10=decisecond
