Oof, IDK If those will catch on. I mean Clobies is alright, but Mr. Makers assumes everyone on the forum uses Mr 0_0
I do have a new slang word! I invented.. drumroll please…
Arcartist! It’s a combo of ‘arcade’ for makecode arcade and ‘artist’ for all those pixel artists who don’t do much coding.
… Yeah that’s the best I could come up with.

Ask @goldtopaz . It was his idea.

He said Coneguy 64 fans would be considered as “water hats” for some reason.

What about “Compo” (plural “Compoes”)? I think it would be pronounced (in SAMPA) / [ k @ m ] . [ p oU ] / (“Compoes” pronounced / [ k @ m ] . [ p oU s ] / ) I think it would be for the music composers in Makecode Arcade that put their soul into their music, or just for the composers. /j

Nah don’t call me a clobie

I just wake up and say to myself, “who talked to me today” no slang needed
