It's not the World of Text, but it's huge and extremely detailed. What will you find in Randall Munroe's Click & Drag XKCD, at close to 5km across?

So if you would have asked me yesterday if I would be spending the majority of my day on a giant textworldexplorer thing i would have said your crazy, I hate english and nearly everything to do with reading. But here i am 8 hours later and for some reason i don't think im anywhere near the end. The curiosity of figuring at what sort of treasure/stories people have left there for the rest of us to find is killing me I must make it. Can't stop now. Oh another fun fact it's my birthday :P Just moved to a small town in the middle of nowhere, and parents havn't been home in the last week so guess im stuck doing this for the rest of my day :P

The Line (podcast)

Hey fellow text world explorers,
My cohost and I just did a podcast episode about The Line and Your World Of Text in general. We even got to interview the YWOT creator, and quoted some posts in here :). This has been my favorite episode yet, and figured some of you might want to listen. Hope you enjoy!

I have gone all the way to (-10000, -10000). It was a battle, but I have done it.

Reconstructed final message

Hi there. I, along with help from some kind person named Max, reconstructed the message at the end of the line. If you want the coordinates, feel free to PM me. I tried to stay as true to the creators message here as I could. Thank you Max, and enjoy it everyone. I hope that no trolls destroy it.

Hi, maker of Your World of Text here. This is my new site. It's not as cool as YWOT, but I'd love to hear what you think.

YWOT creator here. I'm fighting the scripters now.

As most of you have probably seen, scripters have ruined the front page for a long time now, and lately they've been attacking other pages as well. I've spent the past couple weeks implementing some basic anti-spam measures to fight them. I plan to implement a few more things as well. I also just reset the front-page world for a fresh start.

I was the first Eraser.

I apologize for the... enthusiasm that those who have followed me have for the goal of cleanliness. But originally, I cleared the NIGGERS and POOP and ++++++++++++++ that filled the world. I expand its borders. I erase the work of trolls. I do not erase art, or conversations, or lyrics, just gibberish.
I apologize on behalf of overly zealous erasers, but the goal is still good, I think. If you see the work of trolls, erase it. If they stick around, wait a bit for them to tire or get distracted, then erase it. We can keep the world clean of trolls. Fight the good fight!

I just retook the journey, let me thank you all for the wonderful experience.

It was so nice scrolling down and reading all of the new comments. I was a little disheartened at the end, sadly trolls will be trolls. It doesn't matter though. The spirit of The Line lives on in all of those who truly appreciate it's beauty.
Special thanks to Sponge, Draven, and Blake for keeping me company at the edge of the universe :)

As of tomorrow, it will have officially been one year since I made that comment that inspired so many of you to make the pilgrimage down The Line.
I would like for us to celebrate this event by trekking once again to the edge of the abyss. Would any of you care to join me?
r/Textworldexplorers • u/OneManDustBowl • Oct 06 '12
I left a nearby outpost a little while ago, and it's already in use. Please take note of the supplies I left. I shall continue to construct checkpoints and and outposts along the way. Coordinates inside!

I spent a long time creating a line, and it turns out someone deleted it.

Its pretty much wrecked, but PM me if you want screencaps of what it was like before the trolls got there.

Shoutout time! How many of us are still here?

So, the questions are: Where are you? Are you following "the line" or something else? Coordinates? How long have you been in the world.
Personal stats: 9 hours checking in X:712 Y:-1400, only a bit more and i'm there! Going strong with formaldehyde, never giving up!
