To start us out, here's the one for the username "docscratch":


When attempting to register the username, he responds. "I knew you'd go for this one. Do try to live up to the name, hm?"


Weirdly, this one doesn't get blocked out, so I managed to snag the name.

What are some other easter eggs you've found?

there are certain users that are in fact blocked out in order to prevent impersonation of real people or controversial topics, namely things like andrewhussie etc etc, if youre able to take a name it's because we've allowed it :3
waiting to see a fan made spreadsheet containing all the easter eggs! there are So Many

reach out on discord @cytosol for moderation-related help!

(also haven't seen anybody mention that the prompts change on whether or not you're using a character's full name, first name or last name!)

interestingly, dirk will allow additions to his name whether it's ships or random letters, unless you put dirkjakescreenshot screenshot screenshot

following up on the dirkjake prompts, dirk has another line if you use jakedirk instead of dirkjake!



beware the warning!

also i wouldn't worry about if it's already been mentioned on another thread! it's nice to have a thread dedicated purely to the username prompts!

you'll have to obtain an image link in order to send an image :(


fairly easy as you can just set up a private discord server, send the messages in the chat and choose to copy the image link from there!

beware the warning!

I spent a while digging for these. There's so many, that I'm not going to include images of every response message. Instead, I have a guide for what to try & what not to try. Included in parentheses are examples, which should be obvious to extrapolate from when there are numerous options. I will do my best to list cases that are less obvious


Don't try

- Denizens ("Echidna", "Yaldabaoth")

- Locations ("Skaia", "Derse")

- Species ("Troll")

- Non-Homestuck mspa characters ("ProblemSleuth")

- Generic npcs ("BlackKing", "WhiteQueen")

- Consorts ("Salamander")

- Lusii ("Glb'golyb")


Try

- Any canon usernames/tags of Homestuck & Beyond Canon characters ("ectoBiologist"). Don't forget obscurer ones, like "ghostyTrickster", "pipefan413", & "fedorafreak". You can even use the recently revealed Naglink tags (nagtags) of "gavageCunctation", "auguryAside", "cloisteredConnoisewer", & "tinnitusChakra".

Additionally, "z420clownboner69" has an easter egg

- Forenames of characters ("John"), excluding "Dad", "Mom", & "Bro"

- Surnames of characters ("Egbert")

- Full names of characters ("JohnEgbert"). This works for guardians with generic first names ("DadCrocker")

- Nicknames of characters, like "Rolal", "DiStri", "UltimateDirk", "UltDirk", "AltCalliope", & "Al". Yes, "Al" is something alt-Calliope asked to be called. "Callie" yields no response

- Troll ancestor titles without the definitive article ("Sufferer" yields a message from Karkat, but "TheSufferer" doesn't). That ancestor's descendant will comment on the choice, save for "Handmaid". Higher blood castes have more specific names: "TheGrandHighblood", "GrandHighblood",.

- Any fully prototyped sprite name, with & without "sprite" attached ("Jaspersprite", "Jaspers"). For squared sprites, try adding "sprite2", as well

- Universe B1 exiles' names ("WritKeeper"). This includes every title of one exile in particular: "WarwearyVillein", "WaywardVagabond", "Mayor", & "TheMayor"

- The Midnight Crew & Felt names ("SpadesSlick", "Crowbar")

- sbahj names

-

Aw, fuck, I sent that reply early! I didn't nearly finish...

Just take these other ones I found easter eggs for. Why bother explaining what doesn't work?


For usernames, I meant "z69clownboner420"


Ancestor edge cases

"Condesce", "HerImperiousCondescension", "OrphanerDualscar", "Dualscar", "MarquiseSpinneretMindfang", "Mindfang", "Grandma", "Grandpa", "Poppop"

"Psionic" is spelled without the double-i quirk & without the Greek letter

"Signless" & "Sufferer" both have responses


Sprite edge cases

Though most once-prototyped sprites have no easter egg, "Becsprite" yields a response. Pre-Retcon sprites ("Tavris", "Tavrisprite") & post-Retcon sprites ("GCATavros", "GCATavrosprite") are both valid. Don't forget "Calsprite"


Only some ship names yield responses: "JohnDave", "DaveJohn", "Johnkat", "Davekat", "DaveJade", "Jadekat", "Meenkat", "Roxygen", "RoseMary", "RoseKan", "Roserezi", "Vrisrezi", "AraSol", "GamTav", "GamJane", "JaneJake", "DirkJake", "JakeDirk"


Titles of works

"Homestuck", "Homestuck2", "BeyondCanon", "HomestuckBeyondCanon", "Hiveswap", "Friendsim", "Pesterquest", "Psycholonials"


Character name edge cases

"Andrew", "LilCal", "LilHal", "BettyCrocker", "BarackObama", "Obama", "Zhen", "Abby"

You can use "Scratch" or "DocScratch", but "MrVanillaMilkshake" & "WhiteTextGuy" don't count

"VriskaMaryamLalonde" & "VrissyMaryamLalonde" differ. The same applies to "TavrosCrocker" & "TavvyCrocker". Only "Yiffany" & "Yiffy", sans surname, yield responses. "YiffanyLongstockingLalondeHarley" does nothing.

Obama gets results but nothing for Mayonaka/Professor? Homestuck has gone woke... /j


Anyway, I would recommend this document for a full sheet of responses: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18eF0b3K5VMgm1RU4NzEk1fVrr4GriMUlx6SauRFJ6VM/edit?usp=sharing

There is also a Google Sheets with more stuff!

More names with easter eggs below:

"Jadebot", "Aradiabot", "Rosebot", "Davebot", "Autoresponder", "Serenity", "Sawtooth", "Squarewave", "Rufio", "Helltier"


Also, I may have misspoke. You should try npc names like "JackNoir", "DraconianDignitary", "CourtyardDroll", & "HegemonicBrute". "SovereignSlayer" & "ScurrilousStraggler" don't work.


I'm aware I'm providing a lot which is already discussed in previous replies, but it's easier to just say everything instead of only filling in the gaps. Sorry if I'm really crowding this thread lol
