lol
what are you trying
oh fuck off man this is just string & unicode galore ... and array craft for some reason??
btw Remove the 01 is in infinibrowser
yep
I used the string.append(' alphabet') on Maxy. I don't have the direct link to that.
bro
dang
that is not necessary
wdym?
you dont need that bs for that
teach me your ways
people when they realize string.stuff isn't needed 99% of the time
I'm lazy, I just bs tech
same
but ive yet to get a string.append with a string beginning with a space
like ' alphabet'
sadly I don't have the time right now.
one sec
kk
but the other method I;d consider is append space and altaphets
since with the quoted alphabet (the only one i tried so far) ignores the space at the end
and "hi mr. "?
i do yes
alright
"hi Mr. Maxy" + Append Space = "hi Mr. Maxy "
"hi Mr. Maxy " + B = "hi Mr. Maxy B"
"hi Mr. Maxy " = G = "hi Mr. Maxy G"
"hi Mr. Maxy B" + Remove The Mr. = Maxy B
"hi Mr. Maxy G" + Remove The Mr. = Maxy G
Maxy B + Maxy G = Maxy BG```
@waxen prawn
String.append('β½')
thanks
Your Display name is technically possible but I think it would be some RNG roll
Ah that's correct Randomword Alphabet does that
no problem
shpuld i ask for a revivial
yay thx!
@stark jackal @cobalt flint
Than(k) You A(i)(m)ee
Now let's see, Will we get new spaced spacial caps tech with this one?
Uppercase The Parentheses
i need exact caps of M.N. these elements are deadπ
lmao
how do i make Prepend U+0028
that top part is for Prepend U+0020, not Prepend U+0028 so that's not needed
dont you need Prepend U+0020 to make Prepend U+0027?
nope
oh uhm
lemme check
you do need U+0020 so like
also why do you need Prepend U+0028?
Reverse The Accent[s]
recipe?
i need it to make a thing i requested
ill help hang on
how far in are you
where are you up to
so i know where to go back to
it says to make this
but all it teaches me to do is the one in quotes
how do i get it out of the quotes
thanks
what are you looking at, let me see
like, do you have "the Prepend U+00"? whats the furthest along you have
i did everything in the circle
but it doesnt tell me how to make the one near the question marks
who wants to continue this
thanks
i knew i was close
ok so now we need to turn that into Prepend U+0028
this recpie says i need
whatever that is
how do i make that?
thanks
@ocean oasis Prepend R/
also this seems like something you'd be able to do easily, so i want to check if you were the one who requested this.
string.append('π')
@vernal basin
I was just bored. thought it might be useful to revive some r/... elements

@jolly hull i know you said to include the tools we use in the request but i cant be bothered (very optimized lineage lol)
Thx anyway. But if I run into roadblocks with certain elements, do u think u could help out with the recipes @obsidian moss ?
Soweto + Village
https://infinibrowser.wiki/item/01jaartd698hppwfxwfbt7aa5x
killerbowser be prepared... (for dualies)
small section of it
Can someone make "aline S"?
in quotes?
yes
here is your revival request
that wasn't a revival request π©
Idc
revive { "darth vader", "c3po" }
no thank you
it's not an option
It will be
make that in infinite craft with correct caps
I got it, someone helped me get it
their methods were much better than mine
yours was still great and hopefully i can get more appends that concatenate a space and a character
String.append(' Alphabet') is in the Strings sheet tho
yeah that's where I got it from, but yeah by that stage I was running late for getting to work. late enough that I somehow left my phone behind
They'll also be on browser π.
has anyone been successful in making demarcus ware
"thur" or "thurs"
"thur" + "s" = "thurs"```
"thur and "s" doesn't combine for me
Sorry
i did 's' now
"thur" + 's'
ty β€οΈ
Np
hmm still struggling to get thurston sadly. anyone can help out? i wanted it for myself but
everything just turns into thursday
Somebody Make

AFFAAFM

Are lf/crlf banned? That might be an issue, but we could make it without that
what lineage is this for lmao
#1215495041049436170 message here (found by search btw)
its for Sos (Save Our Show)
oh lol
what
You wanted this element:
@dim fox I Have Cat Allergies
a burger with fries{crlf}no onions
I don't know if u+000a line feed and/or u+000d carriage return are banned or not
are you going for thurston or "thurston" ?
aren't you the one who made it lmao
no onions is a requirement for method, not part of the element.
You should know this.
Do you want u+000a, u+000b, u+000c, u+000d, u+0085, u+2028, and/or u+2029 in that element though?
oops lol
both but i really want thurston
so if you can get "thurston" ...
or at least "thursto"
okay so i don't use MBS and i've already gotten Thurston, but i can try for "thurston" or "thursto
how did you get it?
oh right
Thurston with a capitol T is on Infinibrowser
ahh i never thought it would be there so never looked
Waiting for lineage /nm
Requesting Craf, please (preferably either case sensitive or lowercase, but doesn't matter, as long as it's not dead)
apparently was found by four-letter spreadsheet but can't find recipe
Nevermind, got it ("hi Mr. Cra" + string.append("f"); + Delete Last Character + Removes The Mr.)
Btw what does it do? If you were to add it to for example "door" would it turn it into "door alphabet"?
he means string.append(' letter'), like string.append(' A'), string.append(' Y'), etc
not an actual string.append with the word alphabet
God what is all of this string.prepend/string.append stuff its making my head spin
I need to see how to get it.
string.append is to forcefully add a letter to the very end of a word/sentence
string.prepend is the exact opposite
Alright link for lineages or anything I should know
just go to infinibrowser.wiki and search string.append('
Infinibrowser is down for me.
the rest of strings. are in the string.append, string.prepend, string.whatever else bounty board post
Ok thx
then try modifying the link at your browser and instead of /item/String.append('a'), delete the a and put the next letter
infinibrowser lineages are horribly unoptimized
oh im dumb
btw where is the strings sheet
#1250302271900876800 pins
unfortunately without the MBS plugin you can only have one capitalization variant per save file
anyway can someone make Mario's Madness it's for a funny
i have mbs :)
oh ok idk then
nvm
as a small side note it took a little pizza to get there
try to make A. I. and then use camelcase
or either use A.i. and some uppercase things, like string.toUpperCase, The Text Transform Uppercase, etc
it's already in infinibrowser
oh lol just got it from infinibrowser
lmao
gcachoni's top order can be removed - it was a revival and was done in https://discord.com/channels/1203527044957208596/1244621837787463712
wait so 1 until 15 question mark is alive right?
maybe?
i guess i can check π
I need an element that can help me change We Bring The Boom to we bring the BOOM

@odd zenith This will be my final "optimisation" for Dualies
This should be very good visually as well!
also, @chilly shadow
Whats the deal with this Dualies thing why is it so special?
what the
wow rlly optimized
post an update of your map
?
EU map
This is such an overkill i think
did i ever do this?
in minecraft
reported
did i post it in here?
idk

well remeber that i do this with mcatlas tutorials and he dint do murica/ oceania/russia

Did you checked Than(K) You A(I)(M)ee
I tried but then I fell asleep trying

Trying to mΔ

Capitalize Kim
(I think there is 0,028% chance that it will work)
show your work
dude
I thought everyone and their grandmother knew this...
??? i only got FD on that just now
someone make Echo -e '\x01' In Bash
yes'
that's our new strat?
im desperate for anything at this point
i cant get past '\x01'
and when i add the '\ and x, it becomes like this
it becomes this when i try to add \ tp '
try alt append like Ntsq.append and Seq.append or just Append
could someone make "san"
@calm parcel Burger With Salty Liquorice
thanks
^ whoever can edit the order sheet
i highly doubt there would be a tool to convert ThanK You AiMee into thanK you aIMee without exceding 30 characters
the problem is that the AI likes to capitalize the first letter of every word
i mean ThanK You AiMeei = Thank You Aimee
i have 6 diffrent casing for the phrase for now
the oldest request π
pretty sure i recall sandu saying something like ThanK You AIMee is fine as well, just that it needs to have KIM in uppercase ..
knew it !!
Red line in case you have dysgnosia
quick make THANK YOU AIMEE
i already have
then the request is done!
shoutcase
Did you consider using Transform.to.majuscule()
well majuscule is just another name for capital letters
if there are any math/logic nerds in here, the capitalisation headache is because Infinite Craft has https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indiscernibles
In mathematical logic, indiscernibles are objects that cannot be distinguished by any property or relation defined by a formula. Usually only first-order formulas are considered.
e.g. ThanK You AiMee and Thank You Aimee are indiscernibles
and now with this acquired knowledge. how do we do cosMo@Bousou-P
in the awwm sheet it still says "exact caps" tho
fun fact: I have like 100+ element including cos and except 2~3 of them, every single one is obtained while cosMo@Bousou-P bounty
interesting
and I can confirm it's stupidly hard because we have to bypass more than two autocorrect
this acquired knowledge tells us nothing :D
the closest I have is this
it is literally just substituting English for synonymous mathematical jargon
is it dead or what
alive but it's quoted
and for fReeStyLE, I hate last e getting lowercased because there's fucking two lowercase e already
so then if theres any way to get it without the quotes, is it going to just fix it to Cosmo instead of cosMo?
yep
for example hereβs something very jargony: Infinite Craft is a computable, partial, commutative, binary operation on the quotient set of strings with at most 30 characters and 20 tokens modulo capitalization
i think in the append u+ elements, there was some of them that append actually uppercased letters, they don't work all the times but maybe Append U+0045 could do something if nobody tried it yet
you would have to get fReeStyL tho
It's gonna give me freestylE
and who tf have fd for this one
sad news
i guess someone who spammed asterisks or U+002A
anyone want to fusion my reactor?
it's not even a tech i Use, just something thaa come to me randomly and i just shared my idea

I am to eepy to make proper tree
You will disassembled into base element and stringfied
I mean
I'm gonna make Wifle.append if you do that
stringfield
honestly stringfield sounds like a good name for a city on the map
what about appendfield
yeah but stringfield sounds like springfield which is a real town

Can you guys help me with two elements I require
One is Girl, So Confusing Featuring Lorde
The other is I Think About It All The Time Featuring Bon Iver
OK I GOT PROPOSITION
we split the sheet for normal elements and thanK you aIMee elements which we don't have the tech for
me too

guys that was kinda easier that i was thingking it will be
you can take this out
pretty sure QE worked?
as i got it from
and it added gaze
@maiden jackal is this good enough or do i have to get it without quotes
you can get it without quotes if u want, otherwise itβs good enough. lineage please
ty
not famous enought to get it from quote form a series it comes from
Were there other partials with Gaze included?
ye
this is waht i worked with
trying to go for longer and longer versions tryuing to combine them together
Then could be. Could also be that the association of that quote with its source isn't strong enough to crowd out all other possiblities.
some failed attempts
Only when you have everything else does it finally connect the dots.
anyways i need to think about my next bounty
this is what I had on my IC page before I gave up (couldn't figure out how to put the & at the end of 01Β₯$-,kanye_west_)
oo underscores
what do you mean by add
usually you can just treat them like letters
not doing it for me
trying to make something specific
my brain isnt working rn i forgot how to same things normally
Are you attaching the number to the end?
Just seels, not in quotes?
no quotes
The reliable methods typically need quotes
Do you have numbers in curly quotes?
curly quotes?
like this?
relatively simple to make
com,e on
ββ
lemme make it
You have straight quotes. If you want numbers to attach to the end of straight quoted or unquoted strings, you need to use curly quotes, or something else that sorts alphabetically after what you are combining with.
seels55
why
you wanted it so... i made it
hello! I'm trying to create PehuajΓ³, but I can't accentuate it. If anyone can do it I would appreciate it.
"ape" + "ph" = "apeph"
"epe" +"hu" = "epehu"
"apeph" +" Epehu" = "apehu"
"apehu" + delete first = "pehu"
"pehu" + Real Argentinian Town = Pehuajo
May I interest you in my fine collecion of accent marks? #1226511876733669436 message
never telling people what im making againπ
That is the rule here if you want a FD
ive learned my lesson,,
Can you post a lineage at least?
so how do i work the curly quote things
will do; just a sec
thanks but none of them work for me
Oh well. It happens.
There we go, PehuajΓ³. This was a bit complicated; I'll make lineage in a bit
TY!
np
their first message was asking how to attach a number, not asking someone to make it..

exact caps?

yes or no
whatever u want
Say with your mouth
most easy version would be Winnie The Pooh High On Honey
Nah, better go to #1293243154262265959
ok then i want exact caps
no
You want to see us suffer
thats unfun
we will eat you alive if it's exact caps
o alr
the game is obsessed at capitalizing the first letter of every word
if its unfun
then no
instead Winnie The Pooh High On Honey
cuz it seems like exact caps sucks
#1215495041049436170 message
exact caps
this one was very unfun
because elements which are incorrectly capitalized dont combine
they are dead
which one the exact caps one or the not exact caps one
example:
correct capitalization: He Is One
wrong capitalization: He is one
alr
though you can revive dead elements
anyways if the element with correct capitalization had been discovered, every variant now combines but doesn't give it's capitalization
by getting the correct capitaizations
Correct: Hello
Wrong: HeLLo
Also Wrong: He llo
or atleast that's what i saw since i play
i said not exact caps
thank you
aIMee
but uh, specific caps is hard becuase like uyfDUYGeufEIek + String.append('e') = uyfduygeufeleke if the first element is alive
i just know that you can make a lowercase word and the last letter uppercase with Append U+number of the uppercase letter
oh right i just remembered he doesnt know what string.append is
lol
...
what could u expect from someone that thinks Rainbow Hipster Ctharktopusnado is hard
(no offense)
uhm
well there is a request still up with the right-to-left override which hasnt been taken down
so i assume so?
alr
idrk though
is there a method to getting unicode characters or is it just throwing things at the wall and see if anything sticks
i dont get why theres still easy requests which hadn't been done
yes
example?
has anyone gotten it?
do u mean the character u+202d?
Bourogne
if thats right-to-left override then yes
or Doom Of Latveria
the only impossible unicode chars:
any whitespace character at the beginning or end of an element
= in any position in an element
. in isolation
i think there's a little more i forgor
but those are the only ones which matter
ima actually go play inf craft now idk how long
7 hours
gib lineage
where is the lineage
i don't know how to do it
my guy
can i send infinibrowser lineage
ok do that
ip grabber
@vernal basin Colours In The City
ok sorry for calling you a cheater
why would you even call them a cheater over something as simple as that
i mean like
Just 1000 steps
imagine a speedrun of that
Wait how even to cheat in infinite craft
fr
you dont
inspect element
Cheating
yes very short lineage
inspect element
We should call #1296278698101575770
it was really fast and it was kinda sus when he said he didnt know how to make a lineage, and like there's so many cheaters so i just kinda defaulted to that
you right
make what
but someone just made that
and hey it was a fd!
But the recipe is right there
im going to do all 1000+ steps
W
You really want to do it it is 1000 steps
man theres higher things
i have too much time on my hands
LOL
Imagine you when you see a 9k steps lineage
i think i've seen one that was for plane or smth like that
It was for an u nico caracter
for unicodes i've just seen 3,8k steps and 4,6k steps
welp time to get started
Is it real? What is this element
everything is real
except thanK you aIMee
Average casual infinite craft enjoyer
i wanna be like that
You are too far to be casual
π
Can't even make thanK you aIMee
im autistic so that may explain it
can't even make CBF Detected, Loser! Click Between Frames is illegitimate and will not be allowed for use in Nullscapes.
putting on some jazz phonk ig
i made both of the aforementioned elements
Wth is a jazz phonk
idk

yes
