YWOT Fan Works

A collection of non text-based art and miscellaneous media based on YWOT.
== /sp/ ==
/sp/, the 4chan sports board, created their own YWOT subworld in 2012. The owner of the world(presumed to be /~InfraRaven) challenged users to scroll as far north as possible in order to prove the severity of their autism.
The world experienced rapid growth over the course of three days, with many cities being built and some users scrolling as far up as Y:12,000. 
=== Textworld Ribbon of Autism Awareness ===
Possibly the first meme to be made off of YWOT.
The Textworld Ribbon of Autism Awareness was posted onto /sp/ on August 3rd, 2012https://archive.4plebs.org/sp/thread/23951329/#23951329 and promised fortune to all who replied to it with a "THANK YOU."
== ASG ==
The Anti Spam Group(ASG) was a faction of YWOT users dedicated to combatting spammers/griefers, most often with the use of erase scripts.
ASG was a controversial presence as many thought that they had no right to impose any rules on YWOT. This disagreement would lead to numerous feuds with spammers, reaching back to before the 2015 Reset.
As of 2020, ASG has been inactive for an untold number of years.
=== Yourworldoftext.com/~Asg Spammer Attack ===
A meme made at an unknown time, presumably by a member of ASG.
A copy of the image could originally be found on memecenter, though the link has since become defunct.
 LE SPAMMER: BROWSING YWOT

== DIGIBILLCIPHER ==

They were also the first person to join the Unofficial YWOT Discord, arriving on November 30th, 2016(four days after the server's creation).
=== Mainpage Drawing ===
One of their first contributions to the server(and the second image to be posted) was a colored drawing of the YWOT mainpage, showing what is presumably the West and East Roads along with the ladder that used to be the sole trail of the North Road.
== Platyduck ==
A member of the YWOT Explorers, a community formed by North Road travelers in 2020. Platyduck was known for creating a chain of 7/11 tents on his journey to Nirvana.
=== YWOT Explorers Logo ===
Created on April 19th, 2020 and has become increasingly iconic ever since.
Method of creation was presumably Google Slides.
==== Subvariants ====
Two riffs on the original logo created on January 4th, 2022 by Kylaxial and Credrscr, two other members of the YWOT Explorers.
These versions were also created on Google Slides.

== Mandrake ==
Mandrake was a renowned explorer of YWOT who has gone 100,000 coordinates on both the West and East Roads. They have also founded numerous major landmarks and is known for writing what is possibly the longest manually typed body of text on the website.

=== Dreamer's Road Album ===
An album based on the Dreamer's Road project, with each song being inspired by a section of the road.
Each song also contains an album cover designed by Mandrake.
As of 2024, the Dreamer's Road Album was projected to have 73 tracks. Below is a list of the ones that have been completed.
== Maticalman ==
Maticalman was a user who joined YWOT in late 2022 but who is mainly remembered for their activities in late 2023.
They were an active participant of the Factions era of Spam Central, in which different groups of ASCII characters would fight and interact with one another. Maticalman made many pieces of ASCII art during this period and was the creator of the Pirates, CMB, Vyn, and Mercenary factions. 
Maticalman is best known, however, for getting into drama on the YWOT wiki as well as other parts of the site. For this reason they(and their creations) are subject to frequent ridicule by the YWOT community.
=== Factions Art ===
A crude drawing depicting a CMB member attacking an unknown figure. Pirates and a CMB fortress can be seen in the background, along with the Chennoids(a faction created by Chenn). Also visible in the upper left corner is the (Pre)Collapsed Tower inhabited by the Vyn.
=== Political Compass ===
A political compass featuring wojak depictions of The Void, the CMB, Chennoids and Void Labs.
This image was posted onto the former Factions article on the YWOT wiki.
== Chenn ==
Chenn was another user who participated in the Factions era during 2023. They were the creator of the Chennoids and Chenn Industries.
After repeated drama with Maticalman they have since abandoned Factions and is now an active explorer of the YWOT mainpage, having gone more than 10,000 coordinates in multiple directions.
They have also contributed to multiple projects, such as Dreamer's Road and Arson Road. Using a script they created the southern section of the No Tower.
=== YWOT Blender Project ===
An project that began in late 2023, which aims to create 3D models of Factions characters and have them fight each other in short animations.
The process begins with the creation of ASCII assets, which then act as models that 3D models can be based upon. Once finished, some kind of pixelated ASCII-esque decoration will then be applied to the models. (Most models are going to have their meshes inverted to create a outline look, and have a lower resolution to give it a crispy pixel look. -Chenn )
So far progress with the project has been very slow.

=== YWOT Iceberg ===
Created on July 1st, 2024, the YWOT iteration of the iceberg trend divides various factoids about YWOT into 8 tiers.
=== YWOT Album Cover ===
A hypothetical album cover based on YWOT.
The backgrounds were created from two large screenshots taken by Anonymousellama21 and /~fp/(both of which were edited by LiquidVicinity). The two screenshots, one made in 2017 and the other in 2013, each extend for 1000 coordinates on all sides.
