What Is Valor?

Why was my fun-fact about the valor deleted? The CGNU song "asks" 'What is valor?'. I didn't know that either so I looked in Wikipedia. This is a true fun-fact! E.L. Cool 14:03, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

Well noone seems to have come forward with an explanation for deleting it so just stick it back on I say. --Tony Stony 23:43, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

And back it was put. E.L. Cool 14:03, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

And off again! Valor and valor device are different things! -- tomstiff 14:06, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Oh.. Sorry. I didn't know what valor realy is and valor device was the first thing that came out of Wikipedia. Maybe we could put what Valor is on the fun-facts? E.L. Cool 14:54, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Done! -- tomstiff 15:02, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Thank you! E.L. Cool 17:47, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Baba O'Riley

Probably not appropriate for the article, but it is cool: At the end of the email, if you scrub your mouse over the first four notes for a while, and then the second four notes for a while, it kind of sounds like the intro to "Baba O'Riley" by the Who.--70.106.199.215 01:38, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)

The Chort

There is a remark that states: "This is the first time Coach Z says The Cheat instead of The Chort." While true, I beleive this statement is not entirely accurate of what he is saying. The actual quote from the transcript reads: "Get yer head in the game, The Chort! The Cheat is wide open!"

I beleive it's safe to assume that Coach Z is still calling The Cheat "The Chort", but does indeed say "The Cheat" correctly. I beleive he may either be referring to a "team member" of the opposing team or, (very unlikely) the Cheat himself as a member of his own team (and thus pronouncing his name right). I think the remark should read: "This is the first time we hear Coach Z say The Cheat correctly. However, he is likely not referring to The Cheat himself."

Mario

The tab key can be used to play a truncated version of the Super Mario Brothers theme. It requries a sense of timeing but the theme is farily reecognizeble. Can anybody reproduce this, I'm not very musical but have heard the Mario theme endlessly.
A semi regesterd user: Aaron

The tab order in Flash is automatically generated – if the tab order does something funny it's not TBC's doing. I can't reproduce it here, but it could be that my version of Flash gives the notes a different tab order than yours does... or maybe I'm not getting the timing right or something... Seems to be a coincidence, either way. --phlip ^T_C 11:23, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Aight, I dont know anything about programing flash and I did notice that those note combos appear in many tunes. It Just seems too perfect though, well I guess I'll just enjoy it then.

Homestar's knees tech

Could Homestar's Knees Tech be reffering to Tis True, Pom-pom, Tis True, when The Cheat hit Homestar on the knees with a baseball bat in order to help Strong Bad win a race? Andrew911 18:57, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

While I think that is possible, I think it's more probable that it is just a general reference to injuring Homestar.

Wasn't Homestar hit in the head in Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True? (I don't have it in front of me now, though, so I don't know, but that'd make more sense...) --Jay (Gobble) 21:46, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Not sure, I don't have it, but my friend does, so I haven't seen it in a while, but according to the Tis True, Pom-pom, Tis True page he slides head first into the tree, so I'm not sure if getting hit in the head or flying headfirst into the tree caused his injury. However I think it would be easier for him to fly through the air if he was getting hit on the knees then on the head. Andrew911 01:35, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
