The Wasphive
In a previous post, I detailed the origins of the names "Encircling Walu" and "Enclosing Gnard". Today, we will explore the origins of our most used bot: The Wasphive.
After Maw left, he gave the Wasphive to Clover so she could give it to us. At the time of its arrival, the Wasphive was known as Strodl Bot. One of its many features, which was the first we fell in love with, was its &markov command: you simple type "&markov", and it produces a random sentence based on the past messages in that channel. We quickly noted the similarity to the Wisdomful Beehive, and so the bot gained the name of "Wasphive".
So, what does the bot do? Well, I've already explained &markov. But what else can it do?
The other main draw is the Strodlcoins. If you post a message and a little potato emoji reaction pops up, that means the Wasphive just gave you a Strodlcoin. You can check how many you have with &wallet and give some with &transfer [user] [number]. But, many newcomers are confused by the potatoes, so here is your explanation! (Note: they used to be dollar signs, but we changed them to potatoes for fun.)
At some point I plan on arranging some of the Wasphive's funnier utterances into a song.(The best are in #kexekdolkatduhden!)
