EyeWire Chat Commands

Chat commands to improve your EyeWire experience.

Korean chat commands.

One of the most important features in chat is /pm, a feature that allows you to send a private message to another EyeWirer.

eyewire chat private message

Send a private message in chat by typing /pm USERNAME followed by whatever you want to say. So if you wanted to send a message to @Nseraf asking him what is the meaning of life, I would type ‘/pm Nseraf What is the meaning of life?’ and in chat it appears only to the user you send the message to.  When someone sends you a message it appears as you see below. User @ice912 does not see the private messages between me Nseraf.

Too much chat? Shut it off by typing /silence into the comment bar. To turn chat back on, type the same command again.

International player? Type /join Korean or /join English to switch between EyeWire’s language chat channels.

ProTip: /join en   or /join ko also work.

/me loves EyeWire

To add a special line in the EyeWire chat roll, type /me followed by an action you would like to express to other players. For example, typing ‘/me loves bacon’ results in the message ‘amy loves bacon

nkem_test Commands

!tb command eyewireEyeWire Chat has special player-generated commands created by @nkem. Here they are in full glory. This is one post in a series of posts highlighting features created by EyeWirers!

The following text first appeared here in the EyeWire forum and explains @nkem’s chatbot aka @nkem_test. Nkem’s bots also provide stats and feedback during competitions.

Overview over all commands that nkem_test understands right now:

If you send @nkem_bot a private message (how to send a private message), he’ll answer with a pm as well. (I use that for testing)

[These commands help players answer FAQs in chat by providing automatic detailed responses to common questions. Type the bold text into chat and @nkem_bot will give you — and the player asking a question — an answer]

!w (Wolfram Alpha)

Query WolframAlpha straight from chat!

From @nkem:

a possible conversion between Celsius and Fahrenheit would now require something like:
“nkem_test, what’s 23°C in Fahrenheit?” or even something minimalistic as
“!w 23C to F”

Of course, Wolfram|Alpha is not just a conversion tool; third derivatives, distances and weather data of Boston in 1981 should work as well…

!online <username>

Checks for last activity of the user – seems to be a bit buggy… rather useless right now

 

!stats

might give some personal player statistics during competitions – answers are private messages

 

============

 

I am a bit biased concerning the usefulness of my bot… So if you find something annoying, please let me know. Feature requests, spell corrections and everything else is also welcome. However I can’t promise to include all suggested features…

 

 

We will keep this post updated with the lastest chat commands. See you online at EyeWire.org!
