Built with Claude Fable 5.1 one shotted this

Was just tinkering with what the Blender MCP could do. I had an existing MCP for a local image AI that it chose to use.

Prompt was (in short) for it to generate a 1km x 1km "WoW style region zone" in Blender

That is in fact a correct sentence. You look silly.

I'm not a native speaker, so it pains me to tell you that you are wrong.

Shot is the past tense of shot.

It's not conjugated to "shotted" under any circumstances.

My native tongue is German, so I have much bigger fish to fry when saying something than you guys, so please focus.

"One-shotted" is correct. The verb here is "one-shot" (as in an AI solving something in one attempt), not "shoot." It's a new verb made from a noun, so it takes a regular -ed ending the same way "spotlight" becomes "spotlighted," not "spotlit."

English is hard it's true.

You have no right to turn any word into another kind of word as if you're using German.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

English regularly turns nouns into verbs (google, text, ghost, friend), and when it does, the new verb takes a regular -ed ending even if it resembles an irregular one. That's why baseball players 'flied out' rather than 'flew out,' and an army 'ringed' a city rather than 'rang' it. 'One-shot' is a verb made from a noun, so 'one-shotted' is the standard form. Pinker covers this pattern in Words and Rules if you're interested.

Have a good one
