     Unlock all Combinations in Little Alchemy

Review

Wanted to finish Little Alchemy, but got made fun of for playing it - so I found a loophole. Thanks to @meatbody for trolling me into doing this.
Instructions


Go to and Play Little Alchemy.
Open your JavaScript console (Command + j or View >> Developer >> JavaScript Console)
Copy paste the JavaScript below into the JavaScript console then hit ENTER
Refresh the page to see all the unlocked combinations in the side panel
If you run this script and already have a lot of combinations figured out it may run pretty slowly (not sure why, probably the $ name-attribute lookup)...

(3) Copy + Paste this into the console

(function cheat(combinations){var results=[],matches=[],total=5;buildMatchList();saveMatchList();console.log("--------------------------------");console.log("::work complete:: now refresh.");console.log("--------------------------------");function saveMatchList(){alchemy.history.parents=[];matches.map(function(r){alchemy.history.parents.push(r)});alchemy.saveProgress(true)}function buildMatchList(){var match,i,ii,iii,pos;for(i=0;i<combinations;i++){results[i]=alchemy.potentialOffspring(i)}for(i=0;i<results.length;i++){for(ii=0;ii<results[i].length;ii++){match=results[i][ii];if(!matches[match]){for(iii=0;iii<results.length;iii++){pos=results[iii].indexOf(match);if(pos>-1){if(isMatch([i,iii],match)){break}else if(isMatch([iii,iii],match)){break}}}if(!matches[match]){if(!isMatch([i,i],match)){console.log("!!!!!",match,getAlchemyName(match),i,getAlchemyName(i))}}}}}}function isMatch(m,match){var combo=alchemy.sex(m),pos=combo.indexOf(match)>-1,len=combo.length;if(len&&pos){matches[match]=m;console.log(total+":"+getAlchemyName(match)+" = "+getAlchemyName(m[0])+" + "+getAlchemyName(m[1]));total++;return true}return false}function getAlchemyName(id){return $(alchemy.originStr(id)).filter("h2").find("img").attr("alt")}})(450);
