Interesting idea, but how can it possibly work? (Even if it doesn't) --Zzo38 03:19, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Better question, who could possibly have the time to make a working interpreter. --(this comment by Orange at 06:24, 17 August 2009 UTC; please sign your comments with ~~~~)

I'm working on it and it will hopefully work. It is going to be incredibly complex and difficult to understand and even I wouldn't attempt to make a working interpreter. It'll hopefully be pretty close to Malbolge in the amount of confusion to be caused, but simple programs will hopefully be easier to write than in Malboge. I've written a couple other languages: Topline and Ihybrid as well as a plausible Chess idea if you want to check them out. PuzzleHunter84 15:23, 17 August 2009 (UTC) 14:28, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

this language and your bf derivative, coupled with their names, are so bad that they actually lead us in #esoteric to believe you were joking about terrible languages like Minimal. Seems not, heh. ehird 01:43, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

although you could just be doing it very elaborately, like the fun Esme happenings. ehird 01:44, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

With Ihybrid I was making fun of all of the stupid and ridiculous bf derivatives and never really planned on using it for programming. Hopefully I will come up with a better name for this one and make it usable but not "enjoyable" to use. PuzzleHunter84 14:16, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

I came up with a new name which is easier to pronounce and ties in with the language, also this is a joke language, but I am still going to be adding to it when I finish tying up all of the loose ends (Hopefully soon). PuzzleHunter84 16:28, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

Note that Joke Languages are languages which are "not of any interest except for potential humor value". So if you are making Madness more than a joke, it does not belong there. :) Otherwise all/most of this site would qualify. >:) --Ørjan 23:10, 18 August 2009 (UTC)

With that in mind I'm removing the category, because I would find this language to be somewhere between a cross between INTERCAL and malbolge (closer to INTERCAL but more complex) and though it will be utterly disturbing and difficult to use, it probably wouldn't classify as a joke any more than INTERCAL does.
