Good idea, but could be “hacked” so one project could read another user's project cloud data.
I said that only one user can access their own open variables.

Un-obvious remixes. (Remixes which are exactly the same but are more popular than the original.)

Seems like an interesting idea. I'll give it the thumbs up!

My account is nearing its finish.
It'll be great.
I promise.

Click to see how to be able to expand cloud servers through bridge variables!!

What to figure out what type of scratch you are?

Neutral support, while useful, would cost money for a new server,
I was not going to use it,

Woah! Right before a necrobump!
Was this timed? A couple hours ahead, it would have been a necropost.
Good job!

As this hasn't been resolved, it wouldn't be a necropost.

Do you think you've been banned unfairly? Then you'd be wrong. The ST aren't children, so quit acting like they are.

Bump.
Also I support this as it could allow utility sprites (like programming languages) to be updated easily.

This sounds amazing! Why not allow the reading (not setting) the variables of another project? When used in the set variable block a popup would pop up explaining this and the block would return to it's previous value.

Support, this would be very useful to create an achievement system available in all your games, like Google Play Games.

Couldn’t someone use it it to record the username of everyone who visits other projects they made and only allow a user to use play their project if they viewed all their other games? This sounds very similar to something rejected.

Paddle2See wrote this on a suggestion for notifications when a project is viewed.

As for a message telling you who views a project, we're not going to be doing that because it could lead to a lot of traffic on the inbox of some Scratchers - and it could lead to drama about who is or isn't viewing projects.

Ability to see who viewed a project is also in the Official List of Rejected Suggestions, where Za-Chary wrote:

Views are different from loves and favorites in that users can view a project to see if they like it, and then love or favorite the project if they do like it. With this suggestion, some drama could be started if a user sees that another user viewed a project, but did not love or favorite it.

Even though it is already possible to see who viewed your project with cloud variables, I think this would make it a bigger problem.

They'd still have to encode it the same way as cloud data, so I think not.

This is an account that exists.

They could still restrict access to the most recent 70 or so viewers of all of their projects.
