Can I use symbols such as ; , . : +-_

I am creating a project, And I was trying to make a cloud variable save code that would add a player's username whenever they achieve something
Example:
(☁ achievement)
(☁ /scratch_kid5/coderguy/person123/)
etc
but because you can't use letters, I can't do that. So instead I would have to do something like
(☁ /;:19:;:18:;:1:;:20:;:3:;:8:;:0:;:11:;:9:;:4:;5;/)
translating to /scratch_kid5
; means the beginning or end of a letter
:number: translates to a letter with the rule A=:1: B=:2: C=:3: etc
if a number doesn't have : it means it stays as an number
/ means the beginning of a name
:0: is an underscore

would this work

You can only use these symbols in a cloud variable:
0-9
“-”
“.”
But, “-” can only be put at the very start of a cloud variable, and “.” can only be put inside a cloud variable once.

I recommend reading jvvg's essay about the scratch team before complaining, as it may change your opinion and provide insight on the topic.

coming soon :)
