Miff's web toys: Troll text / Troll alphabet / Captcha codes

[Miff]

Yeah, I'm repurposing and necroing this thread to add info about another little web app like this rather then creating a new one. I hope that's okay.

So here's some miscellaneous Homestuck-related web toys I've created. They all use DHTML and JavaScript, so you should make sure that's enabled if they're not working. In the event of a missing update or strange error, you should try refreshing.

Troll me! - Coverts the text you type into the typing quirk of one of the trolls. Supports all twelve! Enter text with normal capitalization and punctuation for best effect. To see only one troll at once, click on a name or picture to hide all the others, then click again to show.

Troll alphabet converter - Coverts the text you type into the inverted Daedric alphabet as used by trolls. (Please note that sometimes there's an odd glitch where a letter is doubled. Just press shift to sort that out.)

Alchemy Combinator - Combines two captcha codes based on && or ||. Simple. Can be useful for Sburb RPs.

I was bored last night and had this idea kicking around for a site that would transform text into the style of the trolls. Tl;dr, created this thingy.

Includes typing quirks for Aradia, Tavros, Sollux, Karkat, Nepeta, gA, Terezi, Vriska, Equius (beta), and Gamzee. I plan to add the other trolls as they're revealed.

MSPA credit goes to AH of course.

first thing i checked was if tA converts to and too to two, and he does!!! nice. i think the only thing missing from aC is 'pauses' -> 'pawses'

[Marelo]

I think a couple of these already exist, actually. But no big deal.

[Mizugiwa]

Change things like "pau" and "pon" to "paw" "pawn" etc for aC, and it's perfect.

[VoltaicPhilosopher]

I think a couple of these already exist, actually. But no big deal. It's still cool.

Fix'd

Yeah, I thought so too. I just thought I'd do my own for fun.

Good choice!

I was hoping that AC would type my name as:33 < dragonpawl99

Well, aC's still in beta because I had no idea how to really do her whole cat-pun thing. I think I might implement the suggestions Mizugiwa made above though.

[IanP9001]

You should allow for characters such asterisks in GC's chat so she can roleplay

Indeed, you can't expect him to get all the mannerisms of the trolls down when we've only seen the character on one update so far.

[Miff]

Updated with a few fixes now. You might have to reload fresh (Control+F5 I think) before you can see the changes.

• Updated aC's function to translate pau->paw and pon->pawn. (Thanks Mizugiwa.)[/*:m:wpwxpv18]
• Updated gA's function to allow digits.[/*:m:wpwxpv18]
• Updated gC's function to allow digits and asterisks. (Thanks IanP9001.)[/*:m:wpwxpv18]

[myluckyseven]

Ooo this is cool. :O Very stylish looking. (i'm a huge sucker for rounded css borders)

And I don't think anyone's done a converter that did all the trolls at once, so that's super neat! I'll definitely need to add this to the growing list of MSPA resources.

:33 dragonpawl99

Yay!

[Andronian]

I love that you coded this in ~ATH.

Yeah, I noticed.

You should also do per->purr.

[captain2obvious]

This is pretty sweet! It has a polished look to it too.

The only thing I can see that might be worth changing would be when you're typing out a fairly long line, have the converted text scroll with the regular text so you can see what you're typing as your typing it.

Or if it word wraps and creates line breaks for you.

I wonder if Andrew already has something like this to make TROLLING faster.

Thats actually a much better idea.

[Mizugiwa]

AC's practically perfect now, it's easier to change sounds instead of entire words. ("per" "pur" "po" "pau" etc) Unfortunately it can't pick up on pronounciation, which I guess is just impossible. Since "po" would sometimes be pronounced "poe" but "pot" would have to be "pawt".

Another good idea would be line wraps/breaks though. Otherwise, this is the best troll converter I've seen so far, great aesthetics.

EDIT: Also, for tA, his "two" conversions need to make sure it's the sole word. Like, check for " to " instead of "to". He changed things like stop to stwop.

[AAAAAAAAAA42]

This is an awesome converter.

He could do a string search there, perhaps...

[mezzoEmrys]

What do you use right now to replace all of your "to" and "too" with "two"?
I'm using actionscript, and I know how to make it work with that.

[Miff]

Added some more changes:

• Allowed multiple lines. (Yay!) Can't figure out how to get word wrap automatic though. (Thanks everybody who suggested this. )[/*:m:3hy74pkr]
• Reordered trolls form the original somewhat random order to the order on Karkat's screen.[/*:m:3hy74pkr]
• Fixed tA changing "to" to "two" in the middle of other words. (Thanks Mizugiwa.)[/*:m:3hy74pkr]
• Added copyright information.[/*:m:3hy74pkr]

If you notice the layout's slightly changed, that's because I had to rewrite a couple parts to get line breaks working, as well as the "expanding/shrinking" animation when you add new lines.
