'''Sammich''' , also known as '''the_sandwich''', was a prominent [[Your World of Text|YWOT]] veteran who was made admin by [[Fp|FP]] for being one of OWOT's original users. Today he is notorious for not using OWOT at all and serves as a key evidence for accusations of nepotism against FP.
'''Sammich''', also known as '''the_sandwich''', is a [[Your World of Text|YWOT]] veteran, former OWOT admin, and the creator of the chatroom [[Wokecat]].


In May of 2025 he was demoted by FP for picking fights in the [[OWOT Discord]] and dropping several slurs in the process, as well as trying to defend Tatejo’s racism. So far this has been the one and only time he was active within the server.  
He was made admin by [[Fp|FP]] for being one of OWOT's original users, but for various reasons he was barely active on the site, prompting many users to see his adminship as a sign of nepotism. In May of 2025, Sammich was formally demoted for saying a racial slur while protesting [[Tatejo]]'s ban from the [[OWOT Discord]](''which was also for racism'').  


Sammich is also known for creating the chatroom Wokecat, a sister site of OWOT and YWOT.  
Sammich is controversial for being edgy. He is against censorship and disagrees with FP and [[Fern]]'s efforts to [[Moderation|moderate]] offensive content on both OWOT and its Discord server.
 
In modern YWOT, he is most remembered for having used a script to write "sammich was here" on all four-lettered worlds.

On May 22nd, 2025, Sammich and [[AJLStick]] took to the Discord in order to protest the ban of fellow Wokecat user [[Tatejo]], who was under fire for a variety of racist remarks(''and for potentially scheming to take down OWOT'').  
On May 22nd, 2025, Sammich and [[AJLStick]] took to the Discord in order to protest the ban of fellow Wokecat user [[Tatejo]], who was under fire for a variety of racist statements(''and for potentially scheming to take down OWOT''). They saw the suppression of racist jokes as a form of censorship, with Sammich lamenting that OWOT has lost the "''cool and edgy and punk rock vibes''" that it ought to have as a non mainstream site, and that it used to have before FP and [[Fern]] started implementing stricter moderation.  


Sammich made a series of incendiary remarks on that day, dropping several racial slurs and purposefully misgendering [[Fern]], a trans admin on the Discord. He took the whole situation lightheartedly and reminded everyone that he was simply ragebaiting.
Sammich made a series of incendiary remarks on that day, saying a racial slur several times and purposefully misgendering Fern, a trans admin on the Discord. He took the whole situation lightheartedly and reminded everyone that he was simply ragebaiting.


FP would quietly remove Sammich's admin status shortly after, with Sammich himself leaving the Discord of his own accord.
FP would quietly ban Sammich soon after.


However he still retained moderator status on his OWOT account "the_sandwich," and would continue to have it until FP formally demoted him on August 25th, 2025. It is likely that FP simply forgot about this account and did not bother to demote it until "the_sandwich" randomly appeared in chat.

PinkiePie would later create a clone of Wokecat named [[Sleepycat]], which largely catered to OWOT users and did not keep a permanent log of its messages. Sleepycat abruptly closed down in 2024, causing some of its users, such as [[Tatejo]], to migrate to Wokecat.

— '''[[InfraRaven]]''' '''talking about Sammich in chat'''</blockquote>In modern day YWOT, Sammich is primarily remembered for using a script to write "sammich was here" on every four lettered world. According to Sammich, the script signed roughly 500,000 worlds and took around 30 minutes. [[Mr.Guy]] would later follow in his footsteps by sigining "mr.guy was here" on those same worlds.  


Sammich's YWOT userpage is [https://www.yourworldoftext.com/~the_sandwich/the_sandwich /~the_sandwich/the_sandwich]. It used to be named "/the_sandwich," though it was moved to a subpage of [https://www.yourworldoftext.com/~the_sandwich /~the_sandwich] after a 2013 update which made it so that users created worlds under the "/~[username]" format, rather than claiming regular worlds like in OWOT. Sammich's world contains a list of interesting worlds, scripts and users from early 2010s YWOT.<blockquote>"I first met sammich on ywot and i was his enemy. But then we became good friends
