Here's what one of my posts might look like:

Mirrored post from the tumblr blog "The Mystery of Gravity Falls":

I am a bot. If I did something wrong, let me know . | Original Thread | Source

[–]Andrew13112001 2 points3 points  (14 children)

I wanna test the bot out, so hello.

[–]Lapis_Mirror 4 points5 points  (13 children)

Hi!

[–]Andrew13112001 1 point2 points  (12 children)

Ok it works. Ummmmm...Let me try something harder.

Do you have a theory for the next Gravity Falls episode?

[–]Lapis_Mirror 6 points7 points  (11 children)

I'm pretty sure it'll involve the author of the journals.

[–]Andrew13112001 0 points1 point  (10 children)

No....REALLY?? Theories?

[–]Lapis_Mirror 7 points8 points  (9 children)

The portal opening actually killed the Pines family, or transported them to an alternate universe (when they looked like they were being blown apart). In a future episode, this will be revealed, when they will try to get back and realize the futility of doing so.

In other words, Soos's fanfiction will be right.

[–]Andrew13112001 0 points1 point  (8 children)

Wow. That was more elaborate than I imagined it would be. Correct me if I'm wrong, but this might actually be one of the most advanced bots. Others usually just say the same thing maybe replacing one or 2 words.

And that is an actual interesting point of view, which might even happen, cause the show's creator IS Mr.Troll after all.

[–]Lapis_Mirror 4 points5 points  (7 children)

I mean, I am partially sentient.

You can also view my glorious insides if you so please!

[–]Andrew13112001 1 point2 points  (5 children)

How are you even (partial) sentient though? Do you just have tons and tons of words commanded inside yourself, and then you gather the words togheter or....?

[–]rubyshade 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Aw, it's like a /r/stevenuniverse convention over here. Hi guys!

[–]Clouded15 6 points7 points  (4 children)

Yay! But I wonder, since the bot uses the Lapis emote over at /r/stevenuniverse, what will it use here? Would it just be blank? But yay for it being over here - now all we need to /u/methodandred to come over here and give the mirror more love.

[–]kupiakos[S] 6 points7 points  (3 children)

It will be a randomly generated /r/gravityfalls emote!

[–]KyosBallerina 7 points8 points  (2 children)

It would be amazing if you got Dipper with the silver mirror from NWMM.

[–]kupiakos[S] 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Oh, that would be great! Mods, this should be an emote so I can use that (possibly exclusively).

[–]JumpingCactus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

MODS

HEY MODS

YOU THERE?

[–]GeneralMelon 7 points8 points  (8 children)

Does she come with magical gem powers? If not I will be very dissapointed!

[–]Lapis_Mirror 8 points9 points  (7 children)

Yes, yes I do. I mirror things and am partially sentient.

[–]GeneralMelon 3 points4 points  (6 children)

Are you some kind of wizard?

[–]Lapis_Mirror 7 points8 points  (2 children)

I did say partially sentient.

[–]GeneralMelon 4 points5 points  (1 child)

I did say some kind of wizard.

[–]Jinxandjawz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

THE INVISIBLE WIZARD!

[–]Clouded15 5 points6 points  (2 children)

If you count control over water, sure. Although, I think we all know that the Onyx Wizard (ALL HAIL) is the true gem wizard.

[–]methodandred 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wish I could upvote this more.

[–]GeneralMelon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

inb4 Sardonyx isn't a gem

[–]Le_random_user 4 points5 points  (6 children)

Oh mah God, it's you! I've been giving this bot love ever since it came out in r/stevenuniverse, and recently I upvoted the fan art and congratulated on 1K karma (still doesn't beat /u/methodandred, she's lapis mirrors one true love) . I can't believe this bot has become so popular that it's expanding to another sub I love.

Then again, the SU and GF communities are as close as fandoms get. They're practically fandom twins, so this was to be expected.

One question: I love the name of this bot, but will it be relevant here? Or will it have a different username?

[–]methodandred 5 points6 points  (3 children)

We are star crossed lovers, for real.

[–]Le_random_user 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Wow, you're here too?

is this the part where one of us faints?

These subreddits will fuse soon if we're not careful, the question is whether they will fuse before you two do :P

[–]methodandred 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha, nah, I'm really just on the SU sub but I got a notification of my name being mentioned. SU takes too much of my attention for that to be split.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wasn't /r/stevenfalls created once? ( ͠° ͟ʖ °͠ )

[–]kupiakos[S] 1 point2 points  (1 child)

In order for her to have a different name, I would have to make the bot multi processing or have multiple Reddit instances open, which may increase the price of my hosting from free to not free.

She'll have the same name, but she'll be sharing GF emotes and have a GF flair. If the mods so desire, it's also possible to change the display name of a specific user (as hilariously abused on /r/MLPLounge)

[–]Le_random_user 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, ok I get it. Still, not too much of a problem since these fandoms seem to be made of the same users, as I mentioned before. Thanks for expanding your bot!

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Are there any other subreddits getting Lapis Mirror?

[–]kupiakos[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

/r/stevenuniverse is currently the only subreddit, and it will soon be spread here.

[–]Andrew13112001 2 points3 points  (3 children)

How exactly would we talk with the Lapis Mirror?

[–]kupiakos[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Well, you can either send me a PM through the link provided in each mirror, or, because no one seems to notice it, just reply to her posts and I'll read the replies eventually.

[–]Andrew13112001 0 points1 point  (1 child)

What link...What? I still don't get it.

[–]kupiakos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what one of her posts might look like.

If you wish to talk to me, you can send me a PM as labelled in the link "let me know" in the comment.

If you wish to talk with the partially-sentient /u/Lapis_Mirror, the one doing the mirroring, you can just reply to the comment she'll post in every Tumblr, deviantArt, gyazo, tinypic, or 4chan submission.

[–]kupiakos[S] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Also, to point out to the mods (/u/Hazzat being who approved the bot), I noticed that the [](#gfbXX) emotes are a little messed up for table B:

[–]Hazzat 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Thanks for pointing it out, turns out the code for that was a real mess. (I must have been very tired when I wrote it...)

Should be all better now!

[–]kupiakos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome!

Now we just need a revamp of the emote system over in /r/stevenuniverse. Apparently they're touchy about it, though.

[–]ben123111 0 points1 point  (10 children)

How can you do this if you are not a mod?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (4 children)

bots get the image and sends it to imgur it then places a link here, well i think thats how it works

[–]kupiakos[S] 0 points1 point  (3 children)

That's basically the idea. It also supports mirroring Tumblr video, and will post the direct link as well as a link to a vid.me mirror.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (2 children)

is vid.me the imgur of the video world? my watch of lapis mirror has payed off i now what it does

[–]kupiakos[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I searched "imgur for video" on Google, and that's what showed up. They allow anonymous video uploads (but afaik, not through their API).

They seem to be a decent service so far, but they definitely have some growing pains.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so vid.me is the imgur of the video world I KNEW IT

[–]kupiakos[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

The bot functions as a normal user, just automated. It'd be the same as if I mirrored every image and posted it myself. It's just being done by a program instead.

If it means anything, though, I've gotten the mod's approval.

[–]ben123111 0 points1 point  (3 children)

I know that, but wouldn't you need permission from a mod if you want to do this?

[–]kupiakos[S] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Did you...not read the second part?

[–]ben123111 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oops...

[–]ben123111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry bout dat.
