Introduction
Hey, there! I'm The Chort! No, I don't look anything like The Cheat, nor can I speak Coach Z. I'm just another Homestar Runner fan. I was bitten by the H*R bug on Saturday, 30 April, 2005, (I think) when I was rather bored. I had already discovered TROGDOR! and Peasant's Quest but couldn't be bothered to explore the rest of the site. So I decided to use a certain obscenely popular search engine to do a quick search for more information about this Trogdor guy. (And for the "Secret Code" for TROGDOR!.) It was a search that would change my life forever. A few clicks later, BAM! I was watching SBEmail #58, dragon! My first thoughts of the site were something along the lines of "What the crap is going on here?!" So I searched the FAQ to find out what the point of the site was. Instead, I learnt that there was this secret game that was apparently impossible to beat. Yep, it was Super Kingio Bros. Interested, I did another search using the same obscenely popular serach engine and KAPOW! I was addicted to the HRWiki! Three months later, I had watched EVERY toon on the site at least once and on Monday, 25 July, 2005 at nearly 7PM, I finally decided to sign up with a unique and imaginative Username. As you can see, I didn't succeed.
About Me
I'm male and I'm 16 years old (that's just a little less than 17!). I live in England, which makes this certain SBEmail very relevant to me. Since it's summer and I have too much spare time, I end up wasting spending it on this Wiki. You'll probably find me hanging round the Recent Changes page, checking out all the edits, and also proofchecking articles. You know, just doing little edits. In addition, whenever anything new is released, I'll eventually get round to comparing the transcript with the actual toon so I can add any little details left out. I also vote on STUFF, discuss articles for deletion and go through the new/unused images, marking any duplicates or those in the wrong format to be deleted. And... yeah... that's about it... Erm... Am I hired?

Justification For Why I Still Don't Like The New Paper
- Those thin horizontal lines really irritate me.
- I don't like how it fades away near the bottom.
- Why is there a picture of an "@" key and a picture of Strong Bad's head in an envelope? They don't do anything!
- The sound effect is harder to type than "preeeeow".
- Furthermore, the sound effect sucks. It's got no punch. It's like a robot taking a crap.
- It's too modern. Strong Bad's Technology is supposed to be out-of-date. He practically still lives in the late 80s/early 90s! That's the freakin' joke!
- It can't do it's job properly. Pathetic.
- It has a crappy sense of humor. It thinks an ASCII picture of a butt is hilarious. A ha ha ha ha. Not.
- The Paper had become an iconic part of the website. Its colours, its sound effect, its font and cheeky personality were instantly recognisable. Would you get rid of Homestar's t-shirt or his hat? No! New Paper is bland, generic and hardly recognisable.
- Strong Bad is probably going to throw it out eventually and bring back The Paper. Homestarrunner.com is not the same without it.
