Special character worlds

From Our World of Text Wiki

Note!: please don't ask an FP for one of these worlds! he will no longer be giving users these worlds

special character worlds or invalid character worlds is a world in where there is a invalid character/s in the world name, invalid characters being any character that is not standard a-z A-Z 0-9 . _ -

the world ampersand among other worlds in a user's profile
one of the invalid worlds in a users profile

despite such worlds being nearly impossible to make there have been 3 cases with 3 users that have obtained a world with invalid characters

users who obtained such worlds

e_g.:

e_g. was the first user who got one of these worlds, he was asking on discord if any user has the world /brainfuck if they could unclaim the world, the next day FP asked e_g if he wanted the the world /brainf**k with the asterisks and he accepted, he then got the world in his account making it the first invalid character world

tap20:

tap20 after seeing /brainf**k asked FP for the world /* and he got the world making it at the time the most recent one letter world made

Scar32:

Scar32 was a bit jealous seeing fp casually gave /brainf**k to e_g and because of that he jokingly said on the discord that it wasn't a good idea for FP to give a user these kinds of worlds because users would ask him for one and then immediately asked for one of these worlds, FP didn't respond, after hearing that another one of these worlds was created /* he got more jealous and wondered who made that world, he wondered if FP added * to the list of valid characters for worlds and someone claimed /* but he tested that theory and it didn't work, he then found out that the owner of the world /* was tap20 and he denied all claims that he asked FP for a world for him to get it even though it was pretty obvious that tap20 wasn't just given that world randomly by FP, after that Scar32 DMed FP for a couple of special character worlds /A&W /& and /Pokémon FP declined Scar32 saying it was a "one off case" but after mentioning tap20's world FP decided to give him one of the three and scar chose /& because it was his favourite character, this was the last document special character world that was made and the last single letter world.

Scar32 got A&W (food) that day

downsides of these worlds

since these worlds were forced into owot there are things that you just can't do with them

you can't

also due to the fact that the only way to get to these worlds is though the warp command e.g. /warp & you can't use your owner tools on these worlds such as protecting areas unless you /warped from a world where you have such tools like your own world
