Talk:Sbemail 100 Fakeout

From Homestar Runner Wiki

Current revision as of 22:14, 9 July 2024

Sbemail 100 Fakeout is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute.

This article may need to think of a better commando name. If you have a suggestion, or if you would like to comment on one that may have already been proposed, please see the talk page.

[edit] Fake notice

Does Homestar actually slap on the fake notice? I'd say no, as he still seems to be in a trance thinking about Strong Bad's 'paradox'; though it's possible as, of course, we can't see his arms. Whatever. I'm removing that bit for now. --195.92.67.209 16:00, 13 Dec 2004 (MST)

Yeah, I don't think Homestar slapped it on. I mean, he didn't slap it on in The System is Down either, so I doubt he did so here. --Ogog

Hey guys, I know this is minor, but both Mar. 15 and Mar. 16 are set as the dates when this e-mail debuted. Which is it? 70.187.228.170 19:26, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

The body of the article says 2:20 am EST Mar. 16. I believe our policy is to count release dates by EST, since that's where TBC are; therefore 16 should be right. —AbdiViklas 19:36, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Link broke?

So, yeah.

The link to sbemail100.html just takes you to sbemailahundred.html

It doesn't take you to the error page anymore, just to the actual hundredth email.

Just pointing it out.

Maybe someone should...do...something.

Flash file still works, though.

Hmm... it still works for me. Trey56 08:15, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Yep, it's fine here too. --DorianGray 08:20, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Actually, it DOES take you to the fake one, but it immediately redirects you to the real email. The flash file is, however, still present and also loads, as previously noted. --PayphoneEd, not logged in

It's working fine for me as well. — Defender1031*Talk 01:48, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Conjectural title?

As "Not the 100th Email!!!" is the page title for this toon, I don't really think this is a conjectural title. Heimstern Läufer 09:36, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

well,i would move it,but there is a problem:there is nothing else to refer it to. --Mariofan1000 16:52, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

[edit] 404 Frames, should it be trivia?

Shouldn't this fun fact be put under trivia? I don't really see how it's supposed to be a remark.

[edit] What Strong Bad said

Did Strong Bad say; "Oh, you think you're pretty clever, huh?" come before or after the email the movies?

Uhh... before? --209.148.176.136 11:41, 11 May 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Capitalization consistency versus website accuracy

Snapdragon95 moved the page from Sbemail 100 fakeout to Sbemail 100 Fakeout. While I agree that the capitalization inconsistency is bothersome, that inconsistency reflects their official (as of the post-Flash site update) titles on the website, and, with rare exceptions, wiki articles for toons match the site. Should this be an exception? DEI DAT VM^┌_{datvm center}\^{super contra}_┘ 23:01, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Ye, I've been wondering where on the website these are with said titles, coz I wanted to check after the move action and couldn't find 'em. (And they don't have a Youtube upload to go off of, either.) --DorianGray 23:09, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

They're listed in the HTML title, between the page title (or I guess what was formerly the entirety of the page title?) and the body of work's name. Other pages all seem to match this pattern, and seem consistent with their menu names, though the ones on the toons and sbemail menus have the toon type also listed. DEI DAT VM^┌_{datvm center}\^{super contra}_┘ 23:32, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

I mean, I'm just tryin' to find 'em on the H*R website. Like, from the toons menu? Are they under shorts or what? I just genuinely couldn't find them, so I dunno where the title change came from in the first place. Like, it used to be called "Not the 100th Email!!!", and I dunno where the "Sbemail 100 Fakeout" name even came from, let alone whether the F is capitalised or not. --DorianGray 23:41, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

I don't think this page is listed elsewhere on the site (as was also the case before the Ruffle update), but I might be mistaken.
The origin of the "Sbemail 100 fakeout" title is what I was trying to explain: It's in the browser's title bar at HR:sbemail100, formatted the same as other pages on the modern site: "Not the 100th Email!!! - Sbemail 100 fakeout - Homestar Runner". Likewise, Awexome Cross has the HTML title "AWEXOME CROSS 98!! - Awexome Cross - Homestar Runner", and pages from the main toons and sbemail menus are similar but with an extra element indicating it as a toon or sbemail, e.g. Most in the Graveyard has "Ketchup Fountain SOUL'd Separately! - Toons Most in the Graveyard - Homestar Runner".
