The user name? block

im not sure scratch will allow this, but it would be nice in Scratch 2.0.

It would see what your username is...

(I do realize that this might be a bad idea, but just want your thoughts)

"If username=Molybdenum
Be mean"

^^That's why it wouldn't be implemented.

Re: The user name? block

*sigh* I still don't get why they don't just make it so you can't drag it into an if type block/it wouldn't recognize it as an input

an expansion of that would be simply don't allow it in control blocks, otherwise repeat until and wait until could be used. There are still problems though, for example

forever
set [name v] to (username)
if <(name) = [zammer990]>
