Varrience This one was initially planned for 5 days, but it seems that you all are losing steam (not you, you're coming up with lots of weird ideas). I didn't "get bored and write up a whole bunch," it's just that I have this short list of 3 more that seem possible, and which I add onto when I have a decent and original idea.
Do keep in mind that I have to test each idea out beforehand to make sure that there is some challenge to it, or the winning answer could be very well 500 characters of straightforward, readable code, and who wants that, am I right? For example, for this one, I made sure that there were several layers of thought that could be applied to the challenge, thus ensuring more entertainment for everyone, and allowing us all to see different methods (i.e. it was clever of you to use 2 dots in order to avoid a parentheses!).
And to win, you have to beat 62 characters... get typing...

Ravage sooo another question.... if you don't mind but it can be injected in the console to produce output? like it doesn't need the run button or it does? because if it doesn't i can beat you fair and square
// 59
a="\n0011110\n0010010\n";a+"1110111\n1010101\n1010111\n1110010"+a
"by have a line that can go into the console" i think i win

Varrience The point was indeed to make something that went into the console (no run button needed) and outputted the holy AMOGUS: you got me beat... that is a pretty boring solution though. Since I'm no longer at the top, this is what I had:
("00"+(0x3C4BBD5AFC8F12).toString(2)).match(/.{7}/g).join("\n")
Or, if you like formatting (not my original answer):
("00"+(0x3C4BBD5AFC8F12).toString(2)).replace(/(.{7})/g, "\n$1")
I stepped down from 63 to 62 characters by turning decimal into hex.
Next time, I'll have to really inspect every route... and I think you're going to have a hard time doing this sort of thing for the challenge I have planned next! All in fun spirit, of course, no hard feelings!

Ravage I talk when it matters. You sound like those pesky English teachers i had early on that knew I could technically do well; despite me not caring at all. I got the same grade for every quarter of that class mainly because they were so annoying and the stuff we had to write about was never fun. Also, the grade was consistent (which is not failing) if that's what your thinking too! Each time I handed in a(n) assignment I could tell there visible disappointment so much so that you could probably graph it linearly on a wall. While my writing style is indeed different do respect it... Not being passionate about things leads to laziness. While writing normally is good and all; I genuinely hate having to constantly reply in this matter that makes me feel like I'm writing something like an intellectual essay or a "keyboard warrior"
tldr; No, I have not failed ever. Do you have a problem with abbreviated non punctuated sentences? Does it bother you? Would you rather a LLM respond instead?

Varrience Damn... I can feel your pain in that one semicolon you used. I didn't mean to anger you (and I still don't mean to), I just was genuinely curious as to your style. In fact, I understand what you mean: I've noticed that you tend to capitalize and punctuate more often on the official CDO forum, where the general ages tend to be higher, whereas here, surrounded by mostly teenagers and young adults, you feel more relaxed.
That essentially boils down to the way people think about others online, and I possess an extreme view on that: I can never feel close enough to others as to lose respect online, excepted 1 or 2 cases. You seem to think that you can feel much closer to people online, and I can definitely respect that! However, saying that you "talk when it matters" does kind of make me feel sad, because it suggests that this communication here doesn't really matter.
The lack of punctuation and capitalization does not annoy me per se; it's just, once again, that mindset that "it doesn't matter," but more importantly that it's hard to understand what you're saying sometimes. Again, I don't have any spite for you here, please don't take it the wrong way.
