==Frequently? Really?==
I can only think of one instance of Jenga being referenced, in [[Where's The Cheat?]]. Really not enough to constitute a running gag. '''Balete''' {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 19:37, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
:My searching isn't coming up with more refs, either, so unless we find at least two more; I'm afraid this article has got to go. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 19:39, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
::Well, there's [[concert]], too, but that's still not enough occurences. [[User:Hagurumon|Hagurumon]] 19:43, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Well, that's 4. Is that enough? -Espemon333
::::Right now we have 3, the minimum for running gags. I'm not exactly sure if it's a running gag or not though. I'm very borderline about this right now. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 22:20, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::It's not a running gag. It's a general, common item, and those need at least more then 5 appearances. Although I got to hand it to it, Janga appear in quite strange place. But it's still not enough. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 19:52, 5 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::Three mentions is not enough. '''Don't keep.''' {{User:The Chort/sig}} 10:52, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::I have a fourth, but it dosen't mean anything if we don't get a fith. Are you sure this isn't a running gag? If no, then we wait 'till the next toon, and if it isn't Jenga-Related, '''then Delort'''. [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 20:31, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Welp, on break had no Jenga. G-bye{{User:Espemon333/sig}} 20:51, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::Like El Cool says, Jenga shows up in some unusual places. I would argue that that is reason enough to bend the rules in this case (c.f. [[talk: teddy grahams]]). =15:04, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Teddy Grahams is not really a good example to compare Jenga to. The former has appeared twice in the universe, has been used in an interesting context (they were spat by Homestar) and play a prominant role (i.e. you can't really fail notice them). Jenga, however, has only been ''mentioned'' so far; none of the characters have actually been seen playing the game. TBC could easily have used ''Twister'' or ''Scrabble'' if they had felt like it. Apart from the fact Homsar seems to like saying the word "Jengajam", it's just not enough. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 15:18, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

::::::::::::Ok, 4'd. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 16:38, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::I agree with Balete,I can't think of any references to Jenga except in [[Where's The Cheat?]].And besides,Jenga is never actually seen at all.I mean why make a page about something that isn't even seen, only referenced. {{User:Wasd98/sig}} 15:30 4 October 2009 (UTC)
Jenga has RARELY been mentioned, and I dont belive i ve seen it on the site. It should be merged with [[Games]] {{unsigned|Ilovehr|12 October 2009}}
:Even if we shouldn't keep this (which is what I feel since this is a [[Where's the Cheat?]] fun fact come to life) there are technically 5 instances. You all must be forgetting the interview (Late Nite Jengajam) which would add up to 5, ''exactly'' enough to keep this. Unless, for some reason, we don't count the interview? — {{User:Stupid Hippie/sig}} 22:33, 7 December 2009 (UTC)
::That one dosen't count. That one dosen't count. That one dosen't count as a reference.
:::BUUUUUT It hasn't ever been seen, only referenced, making it a Reference, which only requires 3 to... oh dear, I'm such the nerd.

== That's not very nice... ==

I don't think it's fair to say Defender hates you. Sure, he can be a bit of an extremist at times, but the reason he scolded you was because you broke one of the wiki's rules. You ARE welcome on the wiki, but only if you stop pretending to be multiple people. Despite that, you still havn't been given a <nowiki>{{blockwarning}}</nowiki>, so I assume you've learned your lesson. No one hates you. So please don't encourage others to hate Defender. How would you like it if I were to (hypothetically) say, "If you hate Espemon, join the club". Of course I wouldn't actually say that, but it is not a very nice thing to say regardless. I am not an admin and can't punish you for sockpuppeting, and frankly, I wouldn't if I were an admin. That being said, I still feel your comment about Defender is pretty mean. Could you make it less harsh and not a personal attack? Thanks for reading, --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 18:13, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Ja, you're right. Can you tell DeFender to check out my [[User:Espemon333|user page]]?
Oh, and I said If HE hates YOU. I dont hate him! How Could I! I don't know him!

== Userboxes ==
If userboxes is what you seek, then thou must goeth [[HRW:UB|here]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 13:23, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

== Apology on your user page ==

I saw it. I didn't even realize it was directed at me, because i don't even remember you insulting me, that's how non-offended i was. I still don't know to what specific instance you're referring, but all i can say is we're cool. I don't hate you (as seems to be implied in an earlier thread here and the history of your userpage). I'm sorry if I came off that way. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:54, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH YOU JUST GOT OFF MY CHEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OOOOOOOOOOO, Espe today is so your day! -Espemon333
P.S. Can you tell me how to do my sig?
::You sign by typing 4 tildes (<nowiki>~~~~~</nowiki>). If you're asking about a custom sig, i can help with that too, all you need to do is ask. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 01:48, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Custom Sig. Please. -Espemon333
P.S. If I were to say want to try to sign up on the [[Recient Changes Patrol]] or [[Welcoming Commitee]], how would I do it?
::::If you want to sign up, just go to the page, click edit, and add your name to the list. At least that's how I did it... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 03:43, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

== Helping my Friend out. ==

Showing my friend how to post. Pruty Cool, huh? [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 01:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

== I'm a friendly reminder ==

Hey there. I noticed you left a note for an IP user. In the future, it'd better to use the [[:Template:test]]. This will help keep the notices consistent. All you have to do is fill out the form as shown on the page and sign it. And it leaves the fresh scent of pine! {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 05:15, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

== Flash Decompiler ==
Here is how to use Flash Decompiler Trillix:

For example, you use the [[HR:dna.swf|DNA Evidence]] Flash File. 
First, save a Flash File to your hard drive by right-clicking the link to one and hit save. 
Open it up with the decompiler by clicking "Open", which is somewhere on the top-left corner of the screen. 
Look in the folder you saved the flash file in. Double-click the flash file. It should play automatically. There is a seek bar to jump to a certain part, or to stop and pause it.

Now, suppose you want to see each element of the flash file. To the right, is the list. Find the flash file that you saved. Click the + that is next to it. You should see Images, Shapes, Morphs, Fonts, Texts, Sounds, Videos, Buttons, Sprites, Frames and Scripts.

Click the + to the left of the category you want. There's all of the elements of that particular category. Click any item in the folder to see it in the window. If anything is silhouetted in a H*R Toon, the unsilhouetted version is likely there, too! That's how I found out that Strong Bad's fourth design was used in [[Email Processing Room]].

To export anything from the flash file and save it, you can check off the folders or items in a folder that you want, and then hit "Extract SWF Objects". You can also convert one thing to another. It really all depends on the type. With the trial version, however, you can only export two things at one time.

You can also take a snapshot of what is in the view window in the middle, too. Just hit "Take Snapshot".

That is basically all there is to Flash Decompiler Trillix. I hope this helps. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 01:15, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

:If you have anymore questions, just ask them on [[User talk:That'sBupkis|my talk page]]. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 01:25, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

::There should be a "Take Snapshot" button with a camera above it. Click the small arrow. You'll see "Copy to Clipboard" and "Save on disk". Click "Save on disk". Click a folder to save your picture in. They can only be saved under .bmp however. To bypass this, save the picture as a .bmp, open it in an image editor such as Paint, then save it as PNG. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 18:06, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

== Welcoming ==

Hi, Espemon. I need to let you know that we no longer do templated welcomes like [http://www.hrwiki.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Navexelac&diff=prev&oldid=682083 this one]. The links that come with that template are automatically given by [[User:First Time Here?|First Time Here?]] to every new user upon registration, and then a user delivers a personalized welcome. You can read some comments [[HRWiki_talk:Welcoming_committee#Welcoming_with_tact_and_professionalism|here]] about how to welcome properly. Thanks, and keep on tranglin'. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:10, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Hey there. You marked [[:File:Link Reads.jpg]] to delete in August, yet it's still on your user page. What do you want us to do with it? You are within your personal image limit, so you can keep it if you want. {{User:Elcool/sig}} 07:56, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
:Ok, lets keep it. Sorry!!! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:36, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Hiya, Espemon! I went ahead and put the "Uzi-Bazooka's Caption Contest" userbox in your tower. [[user: The New Uzi-Bazooka]]
*Thanks man. Feel free to nominate yourself for that. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:36, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
**Oh, I see what's going on. Apparently "other people's pages are a no-touch zone," according to the last guy who took it off. So, if I don't want to get banned (and, guess what, I don't!), I'm afraid you're going to have to put it up yourself. You can just copy and paste the code from my nomination.[[user: The New Uzi-Bazooka]]

The links that come with that template are automatically given by [[User:First Time Here?|First Time Here?]] to every new user upon registration, and then a user delivers a personalized welcome. You can read some comments [[HRWiki_talk:Welcoming_committee#Welcoming_with_tact_and_professionalism|here]] about how to welcome properly.

Espemon333: /* Uzi-Bazooka's Caption Contest */

== That's not very nice... ==

I don't think it's fair to say Defender hates you. Sure, he can be a bit of an extremist at times, but the reason he scolded you was because you broke one of the wiki's rules. You ARE welcome on the wiki, but only if you stop pretending to be multiple people. Despite that, you still havn't been given a <nowiki>{{blockwarning}}</nowiki>, so I assume you've learned your lesson. No one hates you. So please don't encourage others to hate Defender. How would you like it if I were to (hypothetically) say, "If you hate Espemon, join the club". Of course I wouldn't actually say that, but it is not a very nice thing to say regardless. I am not an admin and can't punish you for sockpuppeting, and frankly, I wouldn't if I were an admin. That being said, I still feel your comment about Defender is pretty mean. Could you make it less harsh and not a personal attack? Thanks for reading, --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 18:13, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Ja, you're right. Can you tell DeFender to check out my [[User:Espemon333|user page]]?
Oh, and I said If HE hates YOU. I dont hate him! How Could I! I don't know him!

== Userboxes ==
If userboxes is what you seek, then thou must goeth [[HRW:UB|here]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 13:23, 1 August 2009 (UTC)

== Apology on your user page ==

I saw it. I didn't even realize it was directed at me, because i don't even remember you insulting me, that's how non-offended i was. I still don't know to what specific instance you're referring, but all i can say is we're cool. I don't hate you (as seems to be implied in an earlier thread here and the history of your userpage). I'm sorry if I came off that way. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:54, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

Showing my friend how to post. Pruty Cool, huh? [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 01:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

== I'm a friendly reminder ==

Hey there. I noticed you left a note for an IP user. In the future, it'd better to use the [[:Template:test]]. This will help keep the notices consistent. All you have to do is fill out the form as shown on the page and sign it. And it leaves the fresh scent of pine! {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 05:15, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

== Flash Decompiler ==
Here is how to use Flash Decompiler Trillix:

For example, you use the [[HR:dna.swf|DNA Evidence]] Flash File. 
First, save a Flash File to your hard drive by right-clicking the link to one and hit save. 
Open it up with the decompiler by clicking "Open", which is somewhere on the top-left corner of the screen. 
Look in the folder you saved the flash file in. Double-click the flash file. It should play automatically. There is a seek bar to jump to a certain part, or to stop and pause it.

Now, suppose you want to see each element of the flash file. To the right, is the list. Find the flash file that you saved. Click the + that is next to it. You should see Images, Shapes, Morphs, Fonts, Texts, Sounds, Videos, Buttons, Sprites, Frames and Scripts.

Click the + to the left of the category you want. There's all of the elements of that particular category. Click any item in the folder to see it in the window. If anything is silhouetted in a H*R Toon, the unsilhouetted version is likely there, too! That's how I found out that Strong Bad's fourth design was used in [[Email Processing Room]].

To export anything from the flash file and save it, you can check off the folders or items in a folder that you want, and then hit "Extract SWF Objects". You can also convert one thing to another. It really all depends on the type. With the trial version, however, you can only export two things at one time.

You can also take a snapshot of what is in the view window in the middle, too. Just hit "Take Snapshot".

That is basically all there is to Flash Decompiler Trillix. I hope this helps. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 01:15, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

:If you have anymore questions, just ask them on [[User talk:That'sBupkis|my talk page]]. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 01:25, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

::There should be a "Take Snapshot" button with a camera above it. Click the small arrow. You'll see "Copy to Clipboard" and "Save on disk". Click "Save on disk". Click a folder to save your picture in. They can only be saved under .bmp however.

Stave It Off Guy

Espemon333 — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 19:42:10 GMT

Espemon333: That's not the guy...

[[File:stave it off guy.png|thumb|"Stave it off, one two three and now you can count to three. Stave it off, one two three and now you can count to three. Sta—"]]

The '''Stave It Off Guy''' (or '''Stave''' for short) is the folk guitarist who first appeared in [[for kids]], where he sang "Stave It Off: 123". He later appeared in [[Crystal Fortress]], where he attempted to convince [[Strong Bad]] to "come down from [his] crystal fortress", only to have Strong Bad fight back with a [[heavy metal]] song about [[french fries]]. His appearance seems to be based on folk singer [[wikipedia:James Taylor | James Taylor]] as seen on ''Sesame Street'', while his singing voice in [[Crystal Fortress]] resembles [[wikipedia:Ringo Starr|Ringo Starr]]'s.

According to [[Strong Bad]], he is a "stupid hippie", and "doesn't get [[french fries]]".

===Davey===
The page title for [[Crystal Fortress]] is "Davey Gets His Due!". The toon begins with two [[Powered by the Cheat]]-style hand puppets eating french fries; one addresses the other as "Davey". Davey announces that he'll sing a song he's written about Strong Bad, and a wig, moustache and guitar appear on him to make him resemble Stave. In the rest of the toon, Stave is seen singing the song in a different voice from Davey's. Strong Bad, in his heavy metal retaliation, says the hand puppets get french fries but Stave doesn't, suggesting that Davey and Stave may be separate characters.

In the [[FeedBurner Page#Powered by The Cheat - Crystal Fortress|RSS feed for Crystal Fortress]], [[Matt Chapman]] introduces the name "Stave It Off Guy", or "Stave" for short, and Strong Bad also uses it in [[Fan Costumes '09]].

Espemon333: Nosferatu

[[Image:Gel-Arshie.png|thumb|"I'M AN ABOMINATION! And I'm coming to your house after school."]]
'''Gel-arshie''' is a version of [[Marshie]] that serves as the nightmarish [[Fluffy Puff Mascots|mascot]] for Red Flavored [[Fluffy Puff Translucent Dessert Related Substance]]. He was first featured in a TV commercial in [[winter pool]]. He has a few differences from the normal Marshie; he is made of red gelatin dessert and has a visible [[brain]] floating at the center. His voice is also slightly distorted in [[winter pool]]. [[Strong Bad]] thinks commercials such as Gel-arshie's should be rated NC-17 (for 'Needlessly Creepy times 17'). He appears to dislike other people singing the product jingle for Jela-ton. He has the power to tint his surroundings red, sometimes revealing things. For example, if he comes into contact with something red, he can make items appear inside red [[cardboard boxes]]. He is also the star of a video game titled [[Gel-Arshie's Pro Fruitboarder]].

Espemon333: /* The Epic Awards!!!! */

== That's not very nice... ==

I don't think it's fair to say Defender hates you. Sure, he can be a bit of an extremist at times, but the reason he scolded you was because you broke one of the wiki's rules. You ARE welcome on the wiki, but only if you stop pretending to be multiple people. Despite that, you still havn't been given a <nowiki>{{blockwarning}}</nowiki>, so I assume you've learned your lesson. No one hates you. So please don't encourage others to hate Defender. How would you like it if I were to (hypothetically) say, "If you hate Espemon, join the club". Of course I wouldn't actually say that, but it is not a very nice thing to say regardless. I am not an admin and can't punish you for sockpuppeting, and frankly, I wouldn't if I were an admin. That being said, I still feel your comment about Defender is pretty mean. Could you make it less harsh and not a personal attack? Thanks for reading, --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 18:13, 27 July 2009 (UTC)

Ja, you're right. Can you tell DeFender to check out my [[User:Espemon333|user page]]?
Oh, and I said If HE hates YOU. I dont hate him! How Could I! I don't know him!

== Userboxes ==

== Apology on your user page ==

I saw it. I didn't even realize it was directed at me, because i don't even remember you insulting me, that's how non-offended i was. I still don't know to what specific instance you're referring, but all i can say is we're cool. I don't hate you (as seems to be implied in an earlier thread here and the history of your userpage). I'm sorry if I came off that way. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 00:54, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:AIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!@!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOU DO NOT KNOW HOW MUCH YOU JUST GOT OFF MY CHEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!OOOOOOOOOOO, Espe today is so your day! -Espemon333

== Helping my Friend out. ==

Showing my friend how to post. Pruty Cool, huh? [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 01:43, 21 August 2009 (UTC)

== I'm a friendly reminder ==

Hey there. I noticed you left a note for an IP user. In the future, it'd better to use the [[:Template:test]]. This will help keep the notices consistent. All you have to do is fill out the form as shown on the page and sign it. And it leaves the fresh scent of pine! {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 05:15, 1 September 2009 (UTC)

== Flash Decompiler ==
Here is how to use Flash Decompiler Trillix:

For example, you use the [[HR:dna.swf|DNA Evidence]] Flash File. 
First, save a Flash File to your hard drive by right-clicking the link to one and hit save. 
Open it up with the decompiler by clicking "Open", which is somewhere on the top-left corner of the screen. 
Look in the folder you saved the flash file in. Double-click the flash file. It should play automatically. There is a seek bar to jump to a certain part, or to stop and pause it.

Now, suppose you want to see each element of the flash file. To the right, is the list. Find the flash file that you saved. Click the + that is next to it. You should see Images, Shapes, Morphs, Fonts, Texts, Sounds, Videos, Buttons, Sprites, Frames and Scripts.

Click the + to the left of the category you want. There's all of the elements of that particular category. Click any item in the folder to see it in the window. If anything is silhouetted in a H*R Toon, the unsilhouetted version is likely there, too! That's how I found out that Strong Bad's fourth design was used in [[Email Processing Room]].

To export anything from the flash file and save it, you can check off the folders or items in a folder that you want, and then hit "Extract SWF Objects". You can also convert one thing to another. It really all depends on the type. With the trial version, however, you can only export two things at one time.

You can also take a snapshot of what is in the view window in the middle, too. Just hit "Take Snapshot".

That is basically all there is to Flash Decompiler Trillix. I hope this helps. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 01:15, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

:If you have anymore questions, just ask them on [[User talk:That'sBupkis|my talk page]]. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 01:25, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

::There should be a "Take Snapshot" button with a camera above it. Click the small arrow. You'll see "Copy to Clipboard" and "Save on disk". Click "Save on disk". Click a folder to save your picture in. They can only be saved under .bmp however. To bypass this, save the picture as a .bmp, open it in an image editor such as Paint, then save it as PNG. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 18:06, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

:::True, but on the other hand, I think it's important for Mike and Matt to know that their fans appreciate them as people. To know that so many people they've never met care enough to say something is a beautiful thing. Look at it this way: while h*r is their job, they don't force people who come to the site to buy anything. So they're spending their times entertaining us, potentially for free. The least we can do is show them that we appreciate them.

::::Who said mentioning their beliefs took away the neutrality in the article? --[[Special:Contributions/70.253.165.204|70.253.165.204]] 12:41, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
:::::It doesn't, which is why I left that in. It was the direct statement that they had "instilled good values in their children.", which is a bit of a subjective claim and should be stated as such. It's not the wiki's position to be making claims about good values. Just the facts, and just the facts about Homestar Runner. Also, the structure of the sentence implied that their religion was directly related to their good values. Essentially, it sounded like the wiki was endorsing Catholicism and Methodism. Also not a neutral position. So in my edit, I rewrote the subjective claims so that they sounded like subjective claims and not statements of fact, and tried to dilute the strength of the inference by adding more material from the interview. I haven't removed anything, just clarified and changed the tone. On another note, mentioning their religions isn't a neutrality issue, but it may be a violation of privacy. I know that stuff has been removed from the wiki before because people felt that it was inappropriate to delve so much into the lives of people only tangentially related to Homestar Runner, or even stuff about TBC themselves. There are different schools of thought on the relationship between an artist and their work, and whether analyzing one gives insight into the other. My perception is that it's the de facto official position of the wiki to analyze the work, and not the creators, though I can't find an official statement of such policy. Anyway, I left in the mention of their religions because I think the article has already been looked over by those concerned about the privacy of the individuals, and they have made no contention against such mention. -- [[User:Laser-Grilled Crab & Cheese Sandwich|LGC&CS]] 21:34, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

== DO I HAS? I dunno, but I'm gonna check. ==

Ok, I'm about to ask my mom if she'll donate, but I'm worried that she'll say no. Here is what I'll say:
"Hey Mom, You know that Homestar Runner website I'm always on? Well I was wondering, will you donate to it? You can use your PayPal account for it and it is only 11 bucks or less." so what do you think? -[[User:DavidMichael|DavidMichael]]

:Any time is a good time to donate to the wiki, Fundraising Drive or not. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 23:46, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

== Don't want to come across as pushy either, but... ==

Okay guys, I donated. I did so last time and was slightly disapointed after I realized that the "thank you" page appearantly isn't updated anymore. It kind of made me feel like my money was less appreciated than that of other wiki users who were present as long as the page was updated. Maybe I wouldn't have expected anything if the donations page didn't mention the list. But it did, and still does, and all I'm saying is if you want to motivate people to donate, please either update that list or at least have the donations page inform us that it isn't going to be updated anymore. (No intention to sound aggressive or anything, sorry if it appears that way. It's just my lack of better words.) --[[User:Cass from Germany|Cass from Germany]] 20:14, 8 October 2009 (UTC)

I Fixed it up a bit. Go ahead and check it out and
write back if I missed any typos or things I should Fix.
First, I got rid of the Weekdays in bold, I thought it was dumb
anyway. Second, I put a space after each comma.
Lastly, for the Strong Bad Email section there are a lot.
So I might need a little assistance for that.
Until then the Strong Bad Email section has been DELETED!

Portmanteaus

Espemon333 — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 22:31:26 GMT

Espemon333: /* B */ Rv/v

'''[[Wikipedia:Portmanteau|Portmanteaus]]''' (or '''portmanteaux''') are commonly used in the [[Homestar Runner universe]]. A portmanteau is a combination of two or more words to make a new word or phrase, often going against the accepted traditions of how words are compounded. The term originally referred to a man's travel bag which contained two main pockets. Portmanteaus were first given that name by [[Wikipedia:Lewis Carroll|Lewis Carroll]] to describe "slithy" in the poem [[Wikipedia:Jabberwocky|Jabberwocky]], a combination of "lithe" and "slimy".

[[Strong Bad]] and [[Senor Cardgage]], especially, frequently create portmanteaus. [[The Brothers Chaps]] also often use portmanteaus when providing captions for [[Sketchbook]] and [[Weekly Fanstuff]] entries.

This article only lists portmanteaus unique to the Homestar Runner universe.

HRWiki talk:Spoons

Espemon333 — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 00:50:59 GMT

Espemon333:

Now, I don't agree with this. Let's go hypothetical and assume that I'm the sort of sad person who would make a Wiki about a house. What would come first? The rooms of course, let's say those are the main characters and the toons too, but then, since I'm trying to make a full knowledge base of my house, I put in my TV, my TV isn't some huge thing, I have three TVs, lets say they represent [[Senor Cardgage]], he doesn't appear often, but he is large enough to merit an important page, even a featured one. So

I have the stuff I use most on now. I have the TAVI equilivent of my Wiki on my house. But people begin to say, 'Why don't you have other stuff on your Wiki, you must have more stuff somewhere, all you put on is big things!'.

So I go and create a page about the paintings in my house on this Wiki, and a page about my laser printer, and slowly, in my quest for full documentation of my house, I put on cutlery, and then I split it into spoons. I have achieved everything now. My knowledge base is complete.

The point of all this crap is, if we are trying to document ALL of Homestar Runner, we need little things like that, otherwise it isn't complete, and then people will create those pages. Why can't we have a complete Wiki I ask you. Not everything needs to be interesting. Just like not everything in Homestar is very interesting...[[tape leg]].--{{User:Slipstream/sig}} 10:12, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

:We should really only document stuff that someone might want to read. Whenever you write something, you must keep the readers in mind: will anybody read this? If not, there's no point in writing it. We dont' edit this wiki for editing's sake but to build a knowledge base that holds information that our readers (and ourselves, obviously) are interested in. Now, we CAN have [[Spoons]], [[Toons that do not contain the letter "X"]], [[Toons that use the color #FFE]] and so on. But there's no point. It's a waste of time, energy and also a little money. It's not only a waste of time for the ones who create those articles, it's also a waste of time for those who edit, correct, format, discuss and delete them. This wiki is a team effort, and every page that is created affects many people.{{User:Loafing/sig}} 10:31, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

::Loafing, I find the last part of your reply disappointing. The wiki is a waste of time for you? Don't read it! Editing wastes your time? You don't have to do it! If you have other things to do, then do them by all means. Don't let the wiki stop you. I can show you at least 50 other users from varying levels of participation that edit the wiki solely for the sake of enjoyment.
::Now, about the subject in matter, I don't have as much time as I would like to respond to this, which I will do later, but let me leave you with this: One man's spoon article is another man's featured. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 04:22, 19 August 2007 (UTC)
:::Well after the bell, but I must respond. Loafing was not saying editing the wiki is a waste of time, energy, and a little money. He's saying (and I agree) that writing and editing articles that are not worth reading is a fool's errand. The point of this policy is to describe what kind of article will be of general interest and will be read and useful.
:::As far as "don't edit" as a solution, well, I might remind everyone that we all shape how things are done. A "love it or leave it" attitude isn't healthy amongst positive contributors. Rather, I'd advise "love it but work to make it better". I am certain Loafing enjoys working on the wiki, so that's a straw man argument you raised.
:::Finally, I'd restate your closing remark as "One man's spoon article belongs in a concordance, not a wiki." {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 09:55, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
::::So you're saying that if spoons were used in a different, offbeat way (such as sticking them up Strong Sad's nose) we could have a page, but spoons are too ordinary and generic to have their own page? That's what I'm saying. --{{User:T3H_CH3K7_888/sig}} 19:54, 15 April 2009 (UTC)

== Dynamic imagery ==

I would suggest we have a different spoon image of the few available come up on random page grabs. Dot Com knows the way to do it, as do others. There are many fun spoon memories to include here. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 01:02, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
:You're saying we should have a random image of a spoon appear on this article? Similar to how we have random quotes appear on certain articles ( e.g. {{t|homsarquote}} )? Am I understanding that right? {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 01:58, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
::Not so much saying we should as suggesting we could. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 06:04, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
:::Why exactly do we need images of all the occurrences of spoons? It makes no sense. --[[Special:Contributions/75.5.176.233|75.5.176.233]] 23:50, 12 December 2008 (UTC)
::::That's not the Qermaq's suggestion. He said we could possibly have a rotating (random) image of an occurrence of spoons in the Homestar Runner universe, meaning that the image of 1-Up currently on this article could get swapped out for another image at random, like the {{t|homsarquote}}. I don't think it's necessary, though. {{t|homsarquote}} was created because of several edit wars over what the caption for [[Homsar]]'s image on his page should be. There is no such edit war here, nor will there be soon. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 04:09, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
:::::Yeah, but it's cool. I want to see it. But that's probably because I hate the [[1-Up]] pudding picture. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 20:26, 7 June 2009 (UTC)
:::::: {robot voice} Don't you think this is a '''great idea'''? --[[User:Jellote|Jellote]] 20:00, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

== Is this page useful? ==

Does this page accurately describe a guideline that we follow on this wiki? If so, what is that guideline? It needs to be stated more clearly on the project page, because it is so often invoked in discussions, but it seems to be misinterpreted a lot. If it ''doesn't'' describe a guideline we follow, then it needs to be deleted or clearly labeled as opinion. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 16:11, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
:I've never really liked this page. It's definitely not a guideline; it's at best a distillation of some ideas in our inclusion guidelines. At the time this article was written, the wiki was really slow due to a baby break, so lots of people were really trying to spin running gag articles out of mundane objects. I think that's mainly what this was meant to address, and it's a decent reflection of our practices in that area: we don't make running gag articles about commonplace objects being used in everyday ways. That much is good. The problem is that not all articles based on objects are running gags; some of them are just lists of recurring items. It is clearly within our practices to include articles about mundane objects if they recur a lot, and particularly if they're used in any unusual manner. This much is never made at all clear in this page.
:Having said that, I honestly wouldn't mind seeing this page go away. It's redundant, since we already have the inclusion guidelines. I also think "Spoons" are a poor example to use: there are actually at least two cases of unusual spoon usages (taping one to an eggplant; using one as a baton whilst commanding an army). Probably not quite enough to sustain an article, but pretty close. If we want to keep this page, I'd advise an overhaul changing its title, being clearer what kinds of articles it's about, and probably tagging it as an essay rather than a guideline. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 16:34, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
::the randomness of adding the name of the utensil to the sentence "Let's eat pudding with a spoon!" is kind of unusual as well... that said, i agree with the Heim man. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 16:37, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
:::Too many people refer to this page as a guideline. Let's get rid of it so we can be rid of obnoxious know-it-nones (such as myself) saying everything is a spoon. It is more relevent on Wikipedia, the hub wiki, but not here. Thaqt said, I agree that Spoons themselves may deserve an article in the future if the gag continues, and this page is the only thing standing in the way of that.--[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 16:42, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
::::I'm starting to think I agree. The shame! Anyway, perhaps we could simply make it clearer that this essay refers only to the categorization of object running gags, and then just let the other mundane object lists exist. Someone took the time to create them, after all. I suppose the true measurement here is whether the wiki's server...usage...price...donation total...stuff (sorry, I can code a bit but I've got no clue how server companies charge their customers) could be trimmed significantly by removal of mundane object lists. Ooh, or perhaps we could add a new category for mundane object lists, immune to any mentions of spoons? Additionally, I'm thinking that due to Heimstern's examples, yeah, spoons aren't the right example item. Taping stuff to eggplants is pretty weird. --{{User:Onamuji/sig}} 16:54, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
:::::On the one hand, I think that this page is a useful guideline. Even recently, there has been many people trying to create articles on just about any object that happens to reappear in the HRU. On that score, it's a useful reminder that what we are trying to document are unusual or unique ways that those objects, phrases, or ideas are being used within the Universe. On the other hand, I do feel like this is not the correct example and it tends to get overused (much like [[TTATOT]] used to ) when stating objection to a page. (cf. [[Talk:Boats]]) (and we can't use [[The]] anymore as a substitute, since that makes a nice redirect for [[Integral Article]]...) Like Heimstern has suggested, this article needs to be rewritten with another example or make the inclusion guidelines section clearer. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 17:16, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
I agree that since the message behind this article has been misused, it be reworded to thoroughly clarify what its scope is and what types of article we aim to avoid creating. I don't think this article should be deleted simply because it has been misinterpreted by some. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 19:55, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
:To me, when certain users describe an article as "a spoon", they're saying "This article is boring and I don't like it and we're not allowed an article on spoons so why should we have an article on this other object?" They never explain ''why'' it's a spoon and just say "it's a spoon" as if that in itself is a valid argument because it sounds catchy and professional-sounding. I absolutely cannot stand it when this happens. The frequent abuse of this article has degraded it to such an extent that it no longer has any real meaning. I agree that we need to somehow explain, with vastly more clarity than currently is on this article, that it's not neccessary to create an article for every single object that's ever appeared on the website, just the items which are unique to H*R or have some importance to the plot. On the other hand, we could just scrap the article and use [[HRWiki:Inclusion guidelines]] more often. Also, we actually DO have an article on a certain spoon: the [[Orange Bowl and Spoon|Orange Spoon]] that Colonel Homestar Runner waves about. Yes, it's an exception because it has some importance, but it's existence pretty much undermines the concept of a "No Spoons" approach to the scope of this wiki. Plus, I think there should be an article on Spoons. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 20:14, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
::I find this ironic. Most pages are deleted because they are not famous enough, but this one is being deleted because it became TOO famous. I never thought I would see the day... I am happy about this. I never liked this page. There SHOULD be a spoon article, I agree. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 20:39, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
::: This seems like we agreed to kill it. But should we kill it like in real life, or H*R kill it, so it stays but is still dead? Like, since this was usefull at the time, but has outlived its usefulness, I say we add a retired banner, like on STUFF. Please tell me to stop if you disagree, I just want to kill it. Besides, I'm pretty sure no one wants this page as is. Perhaps we make a new page, and archive this one. One with a better name, a better guideline and a better way of explaining. THis should be retired and kept as is, with a new one. Who's with me? Please answer quickly, as i can't wait to retire this if people agree. --[[User:Jellote|Jellote wuz here]] 17:09, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Consensus here is still not entirely clear in many areas. One thing that is clear is that there is clear consensus against the status quo. What's not so clear is what status quo post we want. Some people are ready to ditch this page completely (whether deleting it or marking it historical); others simply want to see it changed. I can see at least three questions we need to answer: 1. Should this page exist as an active, non-historical page? (If the answer to this question is "no", the other two become irrelevant.) 2. Should it continue to be marked as a guideline, or is it something else (such as an essay)? 3. What object should be used as an example? It appears to me that there is a fair consensus that "spoons" are actually used in unusual enough ways that they are unsuitable as an example.

Could we all clearly state our opinions on these matters? As usual, these aren't just votes, but arguments with reasons to back them up. Then we can get an idea where the current consensus lies.

To start out with my own answers: to question 1: I'm still unconvinced we need this page. All of this is covered where it should be: the inclusion guidelines. We need those; we don't need this page. 2. If we do keep this page, it should not be tagged as a guideline. It's not a guideline itself, it's an essay to help interpret the inclusion guidelines. 3. I have no good ideas for another object to use instead of spoons (which is a big part of why I'd be fine with seeing this page go). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 06:47, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

:The more I think about it, the more it seems like that this page, by itself, is not as useful as it should be. I'm leaning towards HL's opinion that this page should not stand alone; the point of this page is to clarify a point in the Inclusion Guidelines, but it doesn't make sense if it is separate from that page. To that end, what should be done is having the good ideas of this page (namely that pages should be created that document unique or unusual aspects of the Homestar Runner Universe) be '''merged''' back into the Inclusion Guidelines. If the guidelines are unclear, they should be rewritten, with explanatory essay if necessary included.

:As for example, personally, I'm leaning towards [[Nails]], but [[Talk: Nails|that's just me]]. Given the nature of H*R, just about [[boats|anything]] [[mustard|could]] [[ketchup|have]] [[mayonnaise|a page]]. To try to limit ourselves to one example would probably be futile. But I can certainly see a way of writing around that. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 11:27, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
::I think what the creator of this article wanted to say was that we should create articles which should are either interesting or unique, rather than mundane or common. The problem is that an article which may be interesting to one person may be boring to another. The term "interesting" itself is subjective. Who's to say an article on Spoons wouldn't be interesting? No one's even attempted to create such an article yet! Anywho, here's my answers to Heimstern Läufer's questions:
::1. No. This article is not a guideline itself, but rather one person's interpretation of the Inclusion Guidelines which is currently being questioned on this talk page and has been contradicted by the continued existence of articles such as those mentioned in the previous post.
::2. No. As this article is just an interpretation of the Inclusion Guidelines, it should not be tagged as a guideline. If it should be kept as an essay, it should be longer than two paragraphs, otherwise it's not much of an essay.
::3. If we decided to keep this article, we should not use an item for this article's title as that won't solve the problem. We'd just have people describing articles as an <item>. I'd suggest the term "Scope" instead, as this article attempts to explain the scope of our project and that articles should be useful, not pointless. But since I think this article should be deleted or retired, this question is kind of irrelevant to me. The ideas of this page should belong on the Inclusion Guidelines. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 13:53, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

:::In my opinion, it seems to me that most people have misunderstood the purpose and meaning behind this article. As a result the guideline has been greatly misused and so most people are dissatisfied with its existence. I don't believe the article is necessarily dealing with 'interesting vs. dull artifacts' or even that the article itself is interesting. Rather, what it's trying to say is this: if an item is used in a normal, everyday matter, then there's really no point in adding it to an article. Conversely, it stands to reason that if the article is used in an unusual way, it merits inclusion. The best example that would illustrate that is the venerable Spoon. If a spoon is used to eat pudding, what is the novelty in that? We all use spoons to eat pudding; or cereal, or soup or cake. There are many mundane uses of a spoon that are also found in H*R. However, if I, say, use a spoon to single-handedly thwart off an invading army, then that's a notable example! It is my understanding that there are many unusual ways that Spoons are used in H*R. This article should *not* preclude a [[Spoon]] article from being made (or the [[Nails]] article from being kept). It should, however, prevent us from listing every single instance of a spoon (or nails) appearing in the H*R body work (unless perhaps if it's central to the plot somehow). That's why there's a picture of 1-up eating pudding on the page. Again, this is also a ''guideline'' not a set-in-stone wiki law. It means that examples that fall in a gray area should be examined individually, based on their own merit (while keeping this article in mind).
:::So, should we merge this article with the [[HRWiki:Inclusion guidelines|Inclusion guidelines]]? I don't know. They should at least point to each other. But at the very least, the text in this guideline should be updated it make it clear the distinction between mundane and extraordinary uses of everyday articles (adding examples would help a lot in getting this done). --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 05:37, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
::::I agree with Stux's interpretation of a notable object used in the Homestar Runner universe (body of work? What did we decide on?). A page listing every use of a phone in the series is unnecessary, while a page listing the manifestations of the running gag of using a disconnected phone is, in my opinion.
::::As someone who uses the HRWiki considerably more than I contribute, I think I have somewhat of an outside opinion. The HRWiki has become an example of the "unnecessary" details that are cataloged by fanatical wikis. Compare the quality and quantity of the articles here to those on Lostpedia or the WoWWiki (I admit these are both Wikia wikis and not perfectly interchangeable with this one). The consistency and scope of this wiki is well beyond any other similar wiki of which I'm aware. Part of me thinks that this sort of detail is what the HRWiki is known for providing and that I might some day want to know all the mentions of phones in the whole series. The question though is whether anyone else would ''and'' if writing these pages is an efficient allocation of the contributors' time.
::::My overall opinion is no. Half of the glorified lists that we call articles could be deleted and nothing of value would be lost. The wiki, in a way, is still providing this information. Anyone can search for the word "phone" and find, within the transcripts and fun facts, every mentioning of phones in the whole series, fairly quickly and efficiently. This wiki is suffering from too many little hands, itching to create, that have increasingly less to work with. Perhaps we could all benefit from taking a step back and seeing articles as a resource for an outside audience and not as an extension of yourself and the manifestation of your hard work.
::::I understand that this discussion is about the inclusion of ''this'' page, specifically, but I think that this philosophy needs a place on the wiki and it could start here. —{{User:MibZelinda/sig}} 05:51, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::I am equally astounded and honored as this discussion. I have added text to the "essay" and subject it to the wiki's consideration. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 12:30, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::Speaking as someone who has been out of the game for awhile, but occasionally lurking, I did not know about this article, and don't know how people have cited it in the past. I do however, agree with what Stux said. {{User:Invisible_Robot_Fish/sig}} 16:11, 9 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Speaking as someone else who has been out of the game for a while, and didn't know about this article, I'd like to put in my two cents. First, regardless of the ultimate fate of this ''concept'', I have something to say about the preservation of this ''page''. If this ever does get merged or otherwise discarded, I think it's important that both the page's text and the above discussion be preserved in some way, as a sort of museum artifact. Because in the two plus years of discussion above, I can see that this page started as the distillation of much broader thoughts and discussions, and has since become an icon, a shorthand, a benchmark, a mantra, and a controversy. There is a two-year history of reaction not only ''to this concept'', but ''to '''this expression''' of this concept''. If we were doing an academic historical study of the wiki, we would say this page alone deserves a "reception history." The possibility that it inspired TBC's (to my knowledge) only public acknowledgment of the wiki on H*R adds to its historical significance.
:::::::Now, about the concept itself: I think I agree entirely with what MibZelinda says above. There's an important side effect to "wiki-is-not-paper"-motivated bloat, that it makes it more difficult to navigate or to find significant information in. The other day I was researching a piece by a [[Wikipedia:Manuel Quiroga|Galician composer]], but little did I know that the relevant information was not only in [[Wikipedia:Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], but also in [[Wikipedia:Kingdom of Galicia|Kingdom of Galicia]] (which is not part of [[Wikipedia:History of Galicia|History of Galicia]], which does not include the [[Wikipedia:Timeline of Galician History|Timeline of Galician History]]). Granted, many of these linked to others. But though both "Galicia" and "History of Galicia" briefly discussed the significant movement of Galician nationalism, ''neither'' linked to the article on it, [[Wikipedia:Galician nationalism|Galician nationalism]]. Oh, wait, or is [[Wikipedia:Galicianism (Galicia)|Galicianism]] the article on it? And of course there were separate articles for Galicia's [[Wikipedia:Music of Galicia, Cantabria and Asturias|music]], [[Wikipedia:Galician cuisine|cuisine]] (not including [[Wikipedia:Galician wine|wine]]), and [[Wikipedia:Galician people|people]] (though that one doesn't include the, um, [[Wikipedia:List of Galicians|List of Galicians]]).
:::::::I emphatically agree with MibZelinda that our mandate is one of utility over archival. —[[User:AbdiViklas|AbdiViklas]] 03:03, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

Stinkoman 20X6

Espemon333 — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 23:45:30 GMT

''"Blue hair, anyone? Stinkoman's always got fightings and challenges to keep him busy. Jump and shoot your way to all ends of Planet K. End Boss feature!!"'' -[[Videlectrix]]

'''Stinkoman [[20X6]]''' is a side-scrolling platformer game which stars {{Film|Stinkoman}}. This game is based on the [[Wikipedia:Mega Man Classic|classic Capcom ''Mega Man'' series]]. It also parodies the [[Deliberately Poor English|poor Japanese to English translations]] common to video games of that era, similar to those that appear on the [[Scrolling Shooter Games Menu|current Games Menu]]. The game is currently unfinished.

[[The Brothers Chaps]] demonstrated the game at their [[NYU Talk - 1 Mar 2005|talk at NYU]] before it was released.

'''Date:''' Monday, March 21, 2005

[[Image:stinkobox.png|thumb|Stinkoman 20X6 box art. Deuce!]]

==Updates==
*'''Debut:''' Monday, March 21, 2005 - Game released with Levels 1, 2 & 3 and their Stinkomanual articles
*Tuesday, April 26, 2005 - Level 4 added with Stinkomanual article
*Monday, May 9, 2005 - Level 5 added with Stinkomanual article
*Monday, May 16, 2005 - Level 6 added
*Tuesday, May 24, 2005 - Level 6's Stinkomanual article added
*Monday, July 4, 2005 - Level 7 added
*Wednesday, July 6, 2005 - Level 7's Stinkomanual article added
*Monday, August 1, 2005 - Level -0 added with Stinkomanual article
*Monday, September 5, 2005 - Level 9 added with Stinkomanual article, minor menu changes, shooting mechanism altered

== Easter Eggs ==
* Hover your mouse below "Controls" on the main menu to access the [[Stinkomanual]].
** On slower connections, the words "loading manuél" appear while the Stinkomanual loads.
* Wait long enough at the title screen to see an [[Stinkoman 20X6 Walkthrough#Transcript|intro cinematic]].
* Stay still long enough and Stinkoman will yawn.
** On the Level 4 stages, after yawning Stinkoman will rest against his giant fist.
** On the Level 5 stages, {{Film|1-Up}} will fall asleep and blow a snot bubble.
** On the Level 7 stages, Stinkoman will shiver and eventually freeze (this costs you one unit of energy.)
* You can find various invisible platforms if you jump around on different parts of the levels.

=== Fast Forward ===
*Stinkoman 20X6 appears as one of the come-to-life games in [[8-Bit is Enough]] as region-locked. Only a part of Level 1.1 is "playable" and made 3D, although Strong Bad can't jump. Stinkoman appears as a 3D model in his regular proportions, instead of the Mega Man-based sprite.
**It is also strongly implied by Strong Bad that the final game will have at least 50 levels (though this may be just exaggeration, or a [[Blatant Lies|flat-out lie]]), a 10.5 stage, and a secret boss, [[Sticklyman]].
**It is also revealed that the robot enemies can talk, can break regularly coded patterns when asked to, and do in fact enjoy [[Cold Ones]].

: Why Qermaq, you whippersnapper, my eyesight's as good as it has ever been! You kids today don't know how to respect your elders!! Back in my day, we didn't have any of these fancy-schmancy "big fonts"! Why, everyone wrote in three-point text, ''and we liked it!'' And further more, blah blah etc. etc. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:52, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
::Wow, 27 eh? How are the wife and grandkids? {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 17:59, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
:::Just fine, thanks for asking. Johnny, my youngest grandkid, has just proposed to his girlfriend. My stars and garters, they grow up so fast. Why, it seems like just yesterday I was a strapping young lad of 26, still working a low-level job, with no kids at all! Where does the time go? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:07, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

== Music? ==

I made a message for myself for my birthday and want to post it on the wiki so's people can hear it. Is there somewhere I can do it? Like in a personal sounds file? Or do I has to wait for the fanstuff wiki to emerge from the depths of darkness? [[User:Jagger88|Jagger88]] 12:32, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
: If it's not H*R-related, my recommendation would be to not do it. However, I'm not the leading authority here. Anyway, Wikis tend to prefer the obscure .ogg file type for audio. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:36, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
::Well, if I put it in my personal files and removed it after, say, a week, would that be acceptable? The file is a montage of Homestar saying "Happy birthday" to me, and another is a montage of several characters saying "Happy freakin' birthday, jack!". Is this considered to be H*R related? Because I don't want to cause any dramas. Also, how do you convert mp3 to ogg?{{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 05:54, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

== Pain ==

Jay, I was thinking that we should maybe compile a page with all of the times characters get hurt. I'm sure there are plenty of occasions to fill it up, ie. not be a stub. {{User:Open Source Greg/sig}} 09:53, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

== Theycallmefree ==
Hey, Jay. Earlier today you didn't go on [[theycallmefree]]'s file did you? you no, about the periods? [[User:Fingerface|Fingerface]] 23:56, 1 June 2009 (UTC)
: What you you mean "on his file"? I left a message on his ''talk page'' a few days ago because he made an edit that with a really, really long edit summary with no spaces that was making a mess of [[Special:Recentchanges]] and I told him not to do that. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:31, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

== Double Punctuation ==

Jay, I do not mean to be pushy or anything, but earlier when you said you "weren't buying the double punctuation", well I didn't buy it first either, but there are [[theme park|quite]] [[Answering Machine|a]] [[Wear a bikini!|few]] times I've seen this. Which is right? [[User:Theycallmefree|Theycallmefree]] 23:41, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
: If it were up to me, I'd say NOT having both an exclamation point and a period would be the way to go. But maybe that's just me. Perhaps we should bring it up on the [[HRWiki:Manual of Style|Manual of Style]] page!. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 23:45, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

== Kick-a-ball ==

This is the second time i've been able to say this in the past week, but thanks for the reversion. lol i thought the umpire said "You're out" instead of "Stee-rike." i must have been thrown off by the extra syllable in strike. and since they only showed the last strike of the KOT's at-bat (which of course that's all they would do), that also skewed my decision. {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 16:40, 16 July 2009 (UTC)

: Oh, heh. I never timed it, actually, but it's moderately long. For software, you need the RPG Maker 2000 RTP (I'm not linking it here, but it shouldn't be that hard to find.) I don't know if it'll run on Vista. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 22:17, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

== Recent Changes ==
Is there any way to view a recent changes list omitting the deleted pages? I've already found several useful options, like when people are doing image summary cleanup, to just omit the File namespace while viewing recent changes. is there a similar option for omitting deleted pages? {{User:The Knights Who Say Ni/sig}} 03:57, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
: Unless [[It's dot com|someone]] flags them as "bot" edits or something, not that I know of, and he typically only makes them bot edits in special circumstances. Yeah, they're cluttering RC, I know. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:01, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:: Actually, looking at it, if you choose to hide patrolled edits, that'll do it, but it'll also hide all edits by sysops (and any edits marked as "patrolled", of course.) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 04:02, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

Sorry I had to post this here, but when I try to download Jay's Journey, It dosen't work! Well, the download works, but beyond that I can't play! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:26, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
: 1. AFAIK, it doesn't work in Vista. I don't know the workaround. 2. You need the RPG Maker 2000 RTP, and I'm not linking to that here (search for it). 3. You also need the .exe file, which is generic. I can't remember exactly what the .exe file is called, but it should be in the Readme file. If it doesn't come with RM2K RTP, it definitely comes with RM2K itself and some downloaded games. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:30, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

:::::::Kinda lost what you were saying toward the end there. That said, making a game in RPG Maker 2000 is far easier than making a professional one. The "newest version" is not necessarily 2000, and I haven't seen anything since 2000 (if you have a version of RPG Maker that properly loads Jay's Journey and runs on Vista, I'd be interested to know what it is, but I realize you didn't actually say that.) --{{User:Jay/sig}} 23:14, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 43]] (Oct 19-25)===
Almost Halloween! This week is our week to feature something Halloween-related other than a full toon. I was thinking maybe [[Marshie vs. Little Girl]] if no one has any better ideas. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about the email [[ghosts]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:38, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::Also a good possibility, especially since it will have been a reasonable amount of time since the latest sbemail. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:14, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Have we already done [[halloweener]]? If not, that could be a possibility. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 01:40, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::We haven't, though I'd prefer [[ghosts]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::[[ghosts]] sounds good. Nice 'n funny, [[Bad Graphics Ghost]], yeah, it'll work.
::::::Bad graphics ghost is good... I like it...
:::::::I'm be fine with ghosts; let's save halloweener for now. But, if we don't have the HRWiki Halloween theme up and running for that week, I'd like to nominate [[Pistols for Pandas]] (PfP, I'll just say) in reference to our struggling fund-raising drive (and the clever excerpt from it on [[HRWiki:DO YOU HAS?]]). While I don't like it when new toons and such are featured too early (like, "within two years" early), I wouldn't mind it in this case. I would have recommended PfP for week 42 but I didn't have the time. {{User:Soiled Bargains/sig}} 02:43, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 44]] (Oct 26-Nov 1)===
Ween. We usually feature a full-length Halloween toon this week. We've already featured [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], [[Homestarloween Party]] and [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]], so let's think of a different one. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], my personal favorite. Though I'm not sure how much that matters when choosing FAs... {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 20:09, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::There are definitely some reasons this toon is noteworthy; for example, it was the first interactive Halloween toon, and it established the trend of Homsar as a secret character in H'ween toons. Also was the last one to feature voting on costumes, and had a sort of [[Halloween Awards Show|addendum]] released five years later. All told, I think this'd make a good FA. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:32, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Sorry if it seems like I'm being hasty and dismissing your ideas (don't get me wrong, Sucky Treats looks like a good one), but what about [[Jibblies 2]]? That's a good one, too. A lot of people really like that one. The plot is intense, the characters are off the wall here and it's great. "Sucky Treats", however, doesn't really have much to write up on, short of just the characters coming to the house in question and maybe Homsar being introduced in the Halloween toons here. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::::That's also a good one. Either one could make a fine FA, though Sucky Treats is more historic, and I don't agree that there'd be a problem with writing it up. So, let's hear from others about what we should feature. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:20, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::I'm kinda leaning towards Sucky Treats, myself. A very pivotal and important toon for many reasons. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 00:01, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::'''Sucky Treats'''. -Espemon333
:::::::Hey, Espemon. Just to let you know, this isn't really a vote, but a discussion. For that reason, it's important to give a reason for your opinion. Thanks. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:29, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Oh, well in that case, Sucky Treats is the (don't quote me on this) first interactive Halloween cartoon, and the one of the ones where you can vote, plus the first appearance of the coolest character in the Homestar Runner Universe in a Halloween Cartoon, [[HOMSAR]]!!!!!!!!!!!
:::::::::Actually, Homsar first appeared in the [[homsar]] email. Sorry, just making a little observation there. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:40, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Oops. I meant in a Halloween Cartoon. Sorry. [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 16:08, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Actually, Sucky Treats is the first one where he stops making sense, he talked normally in MAM 5.0 and [[homsar]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 19:13, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::my vote is for [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] because it was in my oppinion the best! Plus it holds the record for the most easter eggs--[[user:safariventureman|safariventureman]] 00:50, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::So... what is the current consensus? It seems all over the place at this point... {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::I think most of the people here want to do [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:10, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::Got it! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should do something we have not done in a long time: a game. I'm thinking maybe [[Kid Speedy]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 21:57, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:[[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Week_40.2C_2007|Already been featured]]. Though I would like to see a game get featured. Maybe [[Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 22:54, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
::If you want to do an older game, [[Awexome Cross]] would be fine candidate. I think I prefer that to Dangerdesque. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 23:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Dangerdesque is a bit too recent to be featured IMO. Awexome Cross, Pop:Tire, or Duck Guardian One would be excellent candidates for a game feature. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:02, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::I wouldn't mind Awexome Cross. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Oh, dear, I had forgotten about Kid Speedy already being used. Sure, we can do Awexome Cross, I guess. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::I disagree with Dangeresque being too new. By the time November comes around, it should be about a year old and Videlectrix will have made another Roomisode. But I see why you guys want to feature "older" games. I'd like to see Pop:Tire or Awexome. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 11:18, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, what if (not right now, of course, but sometime down the line) the next set of dailies for a week was all Dangeresque-themed and we included this into the proceedings? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Good idea, MHarrington! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:24, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::If we are going to do an old game for that week, maybe we should do Awexome Cross. By November 2-8, it will be ''exactly'' six years and nine months old. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 16:07, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should do another [[Teen Girl Squad]] character, one who is a staple of the series: [[Arrow'd Guy]]! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:24, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:I was thinking about doing the [[Monosodium Dreams]], assuming we haven't already done it. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[The movie theater]]... [[The battle of Strong Badia]] is also a good one... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::We have not shown [[Monosodium Dreams]] or [[The Movie Theater]] yet, so why don't we do them in the near future? We could do one next week and then the next one two weeks later, since the week before that is Thanksgiving and I have an idea in mind for that one already. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:02, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::Just a comment: remember we are trying to keep FAS to only 10 weeks ahead. We've been creeping up lately (and I've been guilty of same). {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 19:36, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Wbwolf's right. We'll go ahead and leave it for now, but let's keep it down to 10 weeks in advance of the current week in the future. Another thing: don't forget that in a discussion, if you propose a new idea after someone else's, you should always respond to the previous one (perhaps giving a reason you think your choice is more suitable). Otherwise, it's not really a discussion, and it's hard to determine where consensus really lies. (Don't forget that this isn't a vote, contrary to what it may seem sometimes.)
:::::As for my opinion: I do think Arrow'd Guy really deserves a turn in the spotlight, particularly because it's been a while since we've had a TGS-related feature. The other two ideas suggested also look deserving, so I suggest we keep them in mind for the near future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::But wait, wouldn't we have just done TGS 13 for week 39? {{User:Bubs 20X6/sig}} 01:36, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Yes, but that doesn't mean that something like this can't be done for a long time if that's what we go with then. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:47, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Well we did do TGS 13, But Arrow'd Guy works for me. Monosodium, your time to shine comes soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:45, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I'd forgotten we had TGS 13 on the queue. Oh well, I stand corrected. It's still not going to be a problem to do Arrow'd guy this week, though we could delay him if people want to spread out TGS a bit. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:06, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::No, Arrow'd Guy's been delayed ever since we featured [[Whats-Her-Face]]. I think he's waited long enough. Let's do him this week. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:43, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Okay. Seems good. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 16:18, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::No, he has not been delayed since we featured What's Her Face, as there was only one editor campaigning to feature Arrow'd Guy then. The fact that that editor didn't get what he wanted does not mean that article has been delayed. It's coming exactly on time: When consensus favours it. I.e., this week. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:37, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::What I meant is that, after the time of featuring what's-her-face, the idea of featuring him had been tossed around, but ultimately it was decided he was suited for a later period of time (after featuring The Ugly One, a few weeks after a few issues had been featured, etc.). Perhaps he wasn't ''delayed'' for almost a year so much as ''been taken under consideration'' for a year, if you want it in politically correct terms, but the point is that there really isn't much sense in putting off a deserving article any longer than it already has. I'm sorry if I came off as sour, Heimstern, but I feel that this article is in dire need of featuring and shouldn't be denied it merely because another TGS-related article had been featured over two months previously. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 18:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::So far, no one seems to have seriously objected to featuring it this week, despite the relatively short gap between this and the last TGS, so I think we're fine. '''I'm''' certainly not going to, since I think TGS is one of the most awesomest things on the site and always like to see more articles about it get featured. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:28, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::<s>Does anyone oppose to [[French Fries]]?</s> {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 15:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Well I think we should change this one to next week, and do monosodium this week, so we can better space out the articles. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:39, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

:While an interesting article, I think it'd be more suitable for April Fools Day, since it was the basis for 2009's [[April Fool 09|April Fool joke]].

Since it's Thanksgiving week, I suggest the we feature original Thanksgiving toon.... [[Some Stupid Turkey]]! {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 22:40, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
:It's historic, but it's a bit short; I'm not sure we could get a decent writeup out of it. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:30, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
::Here is a writeup I made for this week's featured article:

[[Image:stupidturkey.PNG|left|180px|Some Stupid Turkey]]
'''[[Some Stupid Turkey]]''' is [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]]'s first [[Thanksgiving]] toon that was released on Tuesday, November 27, 2001. [[Strong Bad]] starts this toon with him dressed as a turkey, and begins to sing a Thanksgiving song about a turkey. The song ends with a few of the main characters singing "Go and suck your thumb". [[Homestar Runner]] then says to let them go and partake of their wonderous feast, only to find that it was eaten by [[The King of Town]]. '''[[Some Stupid Turkey|(more...)]]'''

::I hope this helps. Also, if this is used, replace the Image placement with a Featured Article template. I didn't use that, as this is not a featured article yet. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 00:07, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
:::What about [[Twenty THANXty Six]]? I have proposed this for four reasons: 1) Some Stupid Turkey is a tad short, whereas 2008's Thanksgiving toon is a bit longer; 2) It's been a long time since we've done ''anything'' related to [[20X6]]; 3) I think we need to do a toon ''not'' from 2001 for once; and 4) We usually do Thanksgiving toons from the previous year (i.e., 2005's [[Fall Float Parade]] in 2006, 2006's [[Let Us Give Tanks!]] in 2007, etc.). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 03:09, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
::::I should point out that the only reason that we've done the previous year's toon for Thanksgiving is only because they have become a regular feature in the last few years. Having said that, though, I have to agree that Some Stupid Turkey is too short, even with the write up, to feature. There's not a whole lot in the [[:Category:Thanksgiving|T'giving category]]; the only other ones that haven't been featured are [[Happy T!]] and [[Limozeen Thanksgiving E-cards]]. [[Happy T!]] is also too short, but if we don't do [[Twenty THANXty Six]], the E-cards might be interesting. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:31, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Well, if they keep adding more T'giving toons, maybe we won't have to worry about running out of T'giving articles. Maybe the E-cards could be shown next week? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:18, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::I don't think we should have two Thanksgiving-themed FAs, especially since we don't have an inexhaustible supply of them. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:39, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, we did have two T'giving-themed FAs last year (the [[colonization]] email and [[Toikey TV]]), so I don't know. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:50, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::In retrospect, I don't think that was a good idea and that we should have saved one of those for later. Too late now, but I think we'd best not repeat it this year. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:53, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::Okay, then we won't. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyway, in keeping with how T'giving toons have been articled in the past, I think we should do [[Twenty THANXty Six]] this year. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:10, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::I think that's best, too. There's not a lot of Thanksgiving articles, and this one would clearly make a fine writeup. Stupid Turkey could work in a pinch, like, if we run out of T-giving toons sometime (which we could if TBC take the holiday off a few times), but for now I think we should stick with something more substantial. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:16, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Yeah, SST can wait. I amm quite partial to <s>Horpy Tor!</s> Happy T!, but I am not really sure about the substance. It really Isn't FA material, because there isn't much to be said! Limozeen or THANKSty would work, but THANKSty could be a bit too soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::Actually, it would be carrying on the "tradition" of having the previous year's T'giving toon be articled (i.e., 2005's T'giving toon in 2006, 2006's in 2007 and 2007's in 2008). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

For this week, let's do one that seems to have gotten a lot of attention: [[The Movie Theater]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:18, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well it does have a good intro and a decent amount of appearances, so it sounds good, but for reasons untold, can simone produce a write up for me? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:25, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
[[File:The movies.png|left|180px|The movie theater]]
'''[[The movie theater]]''' is where movies are watched, sometimes by force. [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Pom Pom]] brought [[Coach Z]] here to watch a film about the word "job" in the toon [[A Jorb Well Done]]. Along with that, the theater has also shown films such as Women's Penitentiary Bakesale Nightmare, Fists of Knuckles 1-24, Axe Gun: Legends of the Brain Outener, and Pom Pom's Indie film [[City (comma) State]]. As revealed in [[rated]], It is one of the few theaters that show triple R-rated movies. The theater is featured prominently in the email [[the movies]], where it is revealed that [[Senor Cardgage]] has a job as the ticket-taker. '''[[The movie theater|(more)]]'''

Here's my write-up. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 18:42, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

:::::[[homestarrunner.com]] could work as a website's 10th anniversary FA. I think we should do it only on December 6, and maybe have special decorations on the "This week's/today's featured article." {{User:Mr_Eyeball}}

For this week, we should do another [[Cheat Commandos]] character. I'm thinking [[Silent Rip]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:44, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
I myself was thinking that the [[Taranchula Black Metal Detector]] would work. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 00:09, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
:First off, I think we are getting WAY too far ahead of ourselves, and second, any particular reason why? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:07, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well, it looks like both articles are good, but we haven't done anything Cheat Commandos since I joined the wiki (far as I know) and we did Words I probably said like 2 weeks ago. Silent Rip works for me. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::I think it might be better to have [[homestarrunner.com]] or [[Timeline of Homestar Runner]] as the FA for this week, since the 6th is the 10 year anniversary of the site. I do wonder, given TBC's tendencies to make [[Strongest Man In The World|10th]] [[Where My Hat Is At?

:That would work, but I think we should do [[Peanuts]]. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 02:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[A Holiday Greeting]]? Although [[Peanuts]] would be good, too, since it's been a bit more expanded and would probably make good article fodder. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:41, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 52]] (Dec 21-27)===
And in time for Decemberween, why don't we feature a toon that has been overlooked, [[A Decemberween Pageant]]. I think that is the last of the "older" D'ween toons that hasn't been featured, and it also provides a lot of the mythology of this holiday 55 days after Halloween. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:I think [[The Battle of Strong Badia]] is a ''great'' article. Maybe we should feature that one. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:16, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
::You don't understand. For Decemberween, we feature a Decemberween article. It's a fine article, but pick another week to do it. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 22:03, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

::::I think that if we can't get the prose we want from the field, then we should try doing the Dangeresque dailies this week. As mentioned before. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:40, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Espemon333: /**/The Singer...

Is this the first purposeful reference to Christmas on Homestar Runner? Or did the Bros. Chaps just forget to say "Decemberween lights" or something?
: It's [[Decemberween#References to Christmas|not the first]], and Brainkrieg themselves have referred to "Christmas lights" in [[Hooked on Decemberween]].

''{Cut to the four Gregs.}''

'''OPEN SOURCE GREG:''' Based on past experiences, I believe I am the aforementioned plump kid from that song!

''{Cut to an image of Brainkrieg's drummer. He has a decomposing pumpkin splattered onto his head and shoulder.}''

'''BRAINKRIEG DRUMMER:''' Sadly, you are not.

''{The garage door closes with a crash, the screen dims, and "the end." appears in the middle of the screen.}''

==Easter Eggs==

*Clicking on the period after "the end" brings up a scene where Brainkreig end their show.
:'''BRAINKRIEG:''' Thank you very much! We are BRAINKRIEG! Next up is my mom getting back from book club! ''{speaking more calmly}'' So we all need to get out of the way so she can pull in. That tennis ball tells her how far to pull up. So she doesn't hit the trash cans again.

==Fun Facts==

===Trivia===
*Cheerleader's shirt says (s)hallow (t)ween.

===Remarks===
*In Brainkrieg's first appearance, [[death metal]], they are presented as a death metal band while in this toon they are not.

===Goofs===
*When the bassist looks at Cheerleader during the pause in the song, the wings on the design of his T-shirt suddenly disappear.
*When the toon zooms in on the house in the beginning, the paper background stays static.

===Inside References===
*One of the pumpkins has [[presidents|Abraham Lincoln's]] silhouette on it.
*[[Eggs]] feature prominently in this toon.
*The decomposing pumpkin was previously seen in [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]].
*Cheerleader's excitement to be at the Brainkrieg concert is based on an Easter egg from [[death metal]].
*As they did in their previous video, Brainkrieg mentions [[Decemberween#References to Christmas|Christmas lights]] instead of ''Decemberween'' lights.

===Real-World References===
*The [[Wikipedia:Ford Taurus|Taurus]] is a line of sedans and station wagons manufactured by Ford since 1986. The car in the video resembles a [[Wikipedia:List of Ford Taurus models#Third generation|third generation wagon]].
*The Brainkrieg logo near the end of the video resembles the [[Wikipedia:Dead Kennedys|Dead Kennedys]] logo.
*The intro notes of the song are reminiscent of Weezer's "[[Wikipedia:Undone - The Sweater Song|Undone - (The Sweater Song)]]".

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 43]] (Oct 19-25)===
Almost Halloween! This week is our week to feature something Halloween-related other than a full toon. I was thinking maybe [[Marshie vs. Little Girl]] if no one has any better ideas. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about the email [[ghosts]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:38, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::Also a good possibility, especially since it will have been a reasonable amount of time since the latest sbemail. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:14, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Have we already done [[halloweener]]? If not, that could be a possibility. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 01:40, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::We haven't, though I'd prefer [[ghosts]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::[[ghosts]] sounds good. Nice 'n funny, [[Bad Graphics Ghost]], yeah, it'll work.
::::::Bad graphics ghost is good... I like it...
:::::::I'm be fine with ghosts; let's save halloweener for now. But, if we don't have the HRWiki Halloween theme up and running for that week, I'd like to nominate [[Pistols for Pandas]] (PfP, I'll just say) in reference to our struggling fund-raising drive (and the clever excerpt from it on [[HRWiki:DO YOU HAS?]]). While I don't like it when new toons and such are featured too early (like, "within two years" early), I wouldn't mind it in this case. I would have recommended PfP for week 42 but I didn't have the time. {{User:Soiled Bargains/sig}} 02:43, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 44]] (Oct 26-Nov 1)===
Ween. We usually feature a full-length Halloween toon this week. We've already featured [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], [[Homestarloween Party]] and [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]], so let's think of a different one. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], my personal favorite. Though I'm not sure how much that matters when choosing FAs... {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 20:09, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::There are definitely some reasons this toon is noteworthy; for example, it was the first interactive Halloween toon, and it established the trend of Homsar as a secret character in H'ween toons. Also was the last one to feature voting on costumes, and had a sort of [[Halloween Awards Show|addendum]] released five years later. All told, I think this'd make a good FA. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:32, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Sorry if it seems like I'm being hasty and dismissing your ideas (don't get me wrong, Sucky Treats looks like a good one), but what about [[Jibblies 2]]? That's a good one, too. A lot of people really like that one. The plot is intense, the characters are off the wall here and it's great. "Sucky Treats", however, doesn't really have much to write up on, short of just the characters coming to the house in question and maybe Homsar being introduced in the Halloween toons here. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::::That's also a good one. Either one could make a fine FA, though Sucky Treats is more historic, and I don't agree that there'd be a problem with writing it up. So, let's hear from others about what we should feature. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:20, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::I'm kinda leaning towards Sucky Treats, myself. A very pivotal and important toon for many reasons. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 00:01, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::'''Sucky Treats'''. -Espemon333
:::::::Hey, Espemon. Just to let you know, this isn't really a vote, but a discussion. For that reason, it's important to give a reason for your opinion. Thanks. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:29, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Oh, well in that case, Sucky Treats is the (don't quote me on this) first interactive Halloween cartoon, and the one of the ones where you can vote, plus the first appearance of the coolest character in the Homestar Runner Universe in a Halloween Cartoon, [[HOMSAR]]!!!!!!!!!!!
:::::::::Actually, Homsar first appeared in the [[homsar]] email. Sorry, just making a little observation there. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:40, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Oops. I meant in a Halloween Cartoon. Sorry. [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 16:08, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Actually, Sucky Treats is the first one where he stops making sense, he talked normally in MAM 5.0 and [[homsar]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 19:13, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::my vote is for [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] because it was in my oppinion the best! Plus it holds the record for the most easter eggs--[[user:safariventureman|safariventureman]] 00:50, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::So... what is the current consensus? It seems all over the place at this point... {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::I think most of the people here want to do [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:10, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::Got it! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 45]] (Nov 2-8)===
For this week, we should do something we have not done in a long time: a game. I'm thinking maybe [[Kid Speedy]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 21:57, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:[[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Week_40.2C_2007|Already been featured]]. Though I would like to see a game get featured. Maybe [[Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 22:54, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
::If you want to do an older game, [[Awexome Cross]] would be fine candidate. I think I prefer that to Dangerdesque. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 23:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Dangerdesque is a bit too recent to be featured IMO. Awexome Cross, Pop:Tire, or Duck Guardian One would be excellent candidates for a game feature. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:02, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::I wouldn't mind Awexome Cross. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Oh, dear, I had forgotten about Kid Speedy already being used. Sure, we can do Awexome Cross, I guess. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::I disagree with Dangeresque being too new. By the time November comes around, it should be about a year old and Videlectrix will have made another Roomisode. But I see why you guys want to feature "older" games. I'd like to see Pop:Tire or Awexome. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 11:18, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, what if (not right now, of course, but sometime down the line) the next set of dailies for a week was all Dangeresque-themed and we included this into the proceedings? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Good idea, MHarrington! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:24, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::If we are going to do an old game for that week, maybe we should do Awexome Cross. By November 2-8, it will be ''exactly'' six years and nine months old. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 16:07, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Yeah... Awexome cross! {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 17:15, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 46]] (Nov 9-15)===
For this week, we should do another [[Teen Girl Squad]] character, one who is a staple of the series: [[Arrow'd Guy]]! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:24, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:I was thinking about doing the [[Monosodium Dreams]], assuming we haven't already done it. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[The movie theater]]... [[The battle of Strong Badia]] is also a good one... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::We have not shown [[Monosodium Dreams]] or [[The Movie Theater]] yet, so why don't we do them in the near future? We could do one next week and then the next one two weeks later, since the week before that is Thanksgiving and I have an idea in mind for that one already. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:02, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::Just a comment: remember we are trying to keep FAS to only 10 weeks ahead. We've been creeping up lately (and I've been guilty of same). {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 19:36, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Wbwolf's right. We'll go ahead and leave it for now, but let's keep it down to 10 weeks in advance of the current week in the future. Another thing: don't forget that in a discussion, if you propose a new idea after someone else's, you should always respond to the previous one (perhaps giving a reason you think your choice is more suitable). Otherwise, it's not really a discussion, and it's hard to determine where consensus really lies. (Don't forget that this isn't a vote, contrary to what it may seem sometimes.)
:::::As for my opinion: I do think Arrow'd Guy really deserves a turn in the spotlight, particularly because it's been a while since we've had a TGS-related feature. The other two ideas suggested also look deserving, so I suggest we keep them in mind for the near future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::But wait, wouldn't we have just done TGS 13 for week 39? {{User:Bubs 20X6/sig}} 01:36, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Yes, but that doesn't mean that something like this can't be done for a long time if that's what we go with then. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:47, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Well we did do TGS 13, But Arrow'd Guy works for me. Monosodium, your time to shine comes soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:45, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I'd forgotten we had TGS 13 on the queue. Oh well, I stand corrected. It's still not going to be a problem to do Arrow'd guy this week, though we could delay him if people want to spread out TGS a bit. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:06, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::No, Arrow'd Guy's been delayed ever since we featured [[Whats-Her-Face]]. I think he's waited long enough. Let's do him this week. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:43, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Okay. Seems good. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 16:18, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::No, he has not been delayed since we featured What's Her Face, as there was only one editor campaigning to feature Arrow'd Guy then. The fact that that editor didn't get what he wanted does not mean that article has been delayed. It's coming exactly on time: When consensus favours it. I.e., this week. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:37, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::What I meant is that, after the time of featuring what's-her-face, the idea of featuring him had been tossed around, but ultimately it was decided he was suited for a later period of time (after featuring The Ugly One, a few weeks after a few issues had been featured, etc.). Perhaps he wasn't ''delayed'' for almost a year so much as ''been taken under consideration'' for a year, if you want it in politically correct terms, but the point is that there really isn't much sense in putting off a deserving article any longer than it already has. I'm sorry if I came off as sour, Heimstern, but I feel that this article is in dire need of featuring and shouldn't be denied it merely because another TGS-related article had been featured over two months previously. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 18:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::So far, no one seems to have seriously objected to featuring it this week, despite the relatively short gap between this and the last TGS, so I think we're fine. '''I'm''' certainly not going to, since I think TGS is one of the most awesomest things on the site and always like to see more articles about it get featured. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:28, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::<s>Does anyone oppose to [[French Fries]]?</s> {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 15:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Well I think we should change this one to next week, and do monosodium this week, so we can better space out the articles. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:39, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 47]] (Nov 16-22)===
This week, it's time for a cop-out that was responsible for more confusion than almost any toon before it: [[Sbemailiarized!]]{{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:24, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:While an interesting article, I think it'd be more suitable for April Fools Day, since it was the basis for 2009's [[April Fool 09|April Fool joke]]. I think we'd need to mention that in the writeup, and that that'd look kind of out-of-place right before Thanksgiving. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:43, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::What about one of last week's suggestions: [[Monosodium Dreams]]. The [[Corpy NT6]] would work too... {{User:LePorello/sig}} 15:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:::[[The movie theater]]? anyone... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:58, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::Monosodium Dreams looks fine to me. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 17:07, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Sure, I'm game for The Cheat's new computer. But please, let's wait until it's below ten articles in the list before we put up any more in the future, can we? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:56, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::Yeah, let's do Monosodium Dreams, and we can save Sbemailiarized! until after March Break. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 18:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Since it's Thanksgiving week, I suggest the we feature original Thanksgiving toon.... [[Some Stupid Turkey]]! {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 22:40, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
:It's historic, but it's a bit short; I'm not sure we could get a decent writeup out of it. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:30, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
::Here is a writeup I made for this week's featured article:

[[Image:stupidturkey.PNG|left|180px|Some Stupid Turkey]]
'''[[Some Stupid Turkey]]''' is [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]]'s first [[Thanksgiving]] toon that was released on Tuesday, November 27, 2001. [[Strong Bad]] starts this toon with him dressed as a turkey, and begins to sing a Thanksgiving song about a turkey. The song ends with a few of the main characters singing "Go and suck your thumb". [[Homestar Runner]] then says to let them go and partake of their wonderous feast, only to find that it was eaten by [[The King of Town]]. '''[[Some Stupid Turkey|(more...)]]'''

::I hope this helps. Also, if this is used, replace the Image placement with a Featured Article template. I didn't use that, as this is not a featured article yet. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 00:07, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
:::What about [[Twenty THANXty Six]]? I have proposed this for four reasons: 1) Some Stupid Turkey is a tad short, whereas 2008's Thanksgiving toon is a bit longer; 2) It's been a long time since we've done ''anything'' related to [[20X6]]; 3) I think we need to do a toon ''not'' from 2001 for once; and 4) We usually do Thanksgiving toons from the previous year (i.e., 2005's [[Fall Float Parade]] in 2006, 2006's [[Let Us Give Tanks!]] in 2007, etc.). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 03:09, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
::::I should point out that the only reason that we've done the previous year's toon for Thanksgiving is only because they have become a regular feature in the last few years. Having said that, though, I have to agree that Some Stupid Turkey is too short, even with the write up, to feature. There's not a whole lot in the [[:Category:Thanksgiving|T'giving category]]; the only other ones that haven't been featured are [[Happy T!]] and [[Limozeen Thanksgiving E-cards]]. [[Happy T!]] is also too short, but if we don't do [[Twenty THANXty Six]], the E-cards might be interesting. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:31, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Well, if they keep adding more T'giving toons, maybe we won't have to worry about running out of T'giving articles. Maybe the E-cards could be shown next week? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:18, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::I don't think we should have two Thanksgiving-themed FAs, especially since we don't have an inexhaustible supply of them. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:39, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, we did have two T'giving-themed FAs last year (the [[colonization]] email and [[Toikey TV]]), so I don't know. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:50, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::In retrospect, I don't think that was a good idea and that we should have saved one of those for later. Too late now, but I think we'd best not repeat it this year. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:53, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::Okay, then we won't. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyway, in keeping with how T'giving toons have been articled in the past, I think we should do [[Twenty THANXty Six]] this year. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:10, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::I think that's best, too. There's not a lot of Thanksgiving articles, and this one would clearly make a fine writeup. Stupid Turkey could work in a pinch, like, if we run out of T-giving toons sometime (which we could if TBC take the holiday off a few times), but for now I think we should stick with something more substantial. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:16, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Yeah, SST can wait. I amm quite partial to <s>Horpy Tor!</s> Happy T!, but I am not really sure about the substance. It really Isn't FA material, because there isn't much to be said! Limozeen or THANKSty would work, but THANKSty could be a bit too soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::Actually, it would be carrying on the "tradition" of having the previous year's T'giving toon be articled (i.e., 2005's T'giving toon in 2006, 2006's in 2007 and 2007's in 2008). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::I'm gonna have to go with 20-THANKSty-6. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 17:07, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 49]] (Nov 30-Dec 6)===
For this week, let's do one that seems to have gotten a lot of attention: [[The Movie Theater]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:18, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well it does have a good intro and a decent amount of appearances, so it sounds good, but for reasons untold, can simone produce a write up for me? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:25, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
[[File:The movies.png|left|180px|The movie theater]]
'''[[The movie theater]]''' is where movies are watched, sometimes by force. [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Pom Pom]] brought [[Coach Z]] here to watch a film about the word "job" in the toon [[A Jorb Well Done]]. Along with that, the theater has also shown films such as Women's Penitentiary Bakesale Nightmare, Fists of Knuckles 1-24, Axe Gun: Legends of the Brain Outener, and Pom Pom's Indie film [[City (comma) State]]. As revealed in [[rated]], It is one of the few theaters that show triple R-rated movies. The theater is featured prominently in the email [[the movies]], where it is revealed that [[Senor Cardgage]] has a job as the ticket-taker. '''[[The movie theater|(more)]]'''

Here's my write-up. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 18:42, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well that works for me! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:49, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
::I support this article, but as a side note, it's not necessary to do the write up this far in advance. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 18:55, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:::Yeah, but I was just making sure. For reasons. Important reasons. {facedesk, facedesk, facedesk} {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:02, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::::Hey, I just realized that December 6 is the website's 10 birthday! Should we do anything special? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:13, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::[[homestarrunner.com]] could work as a website's 10th anniversary FA. I think we should do it only on December 6, and maybe have special decorations on the "This week's/today's featured article." {{User:Mr_Eyeball}}
::::::Yeah, that sounds great, especially seeing as it is the website's 10th Birthday, and not the body of work's. How would we do it to where it is only 1 day? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 02:32, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should do another [[Cheat Commandos]] character. I'm thinking [[Silent Rip]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:44, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
I myself was thinking that the [[Taranchula Black Metal Detector]] would work. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 00:09, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
:First off, I think we are getting WAY too far ahead of ourselves, and second, any particular reason why? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:07, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well, it looks like both articles are good, but we haven't done anything Cheat Commandos since I joined the wiki (far as I know) and we did Words I probably said like 2 weeks ago. Silent Rip works for me. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::I think it might be better to have [[homestarrunner.com]] or [[Timeline of Homestar Runner]] as the FA for this week, since the 6th is the 10 year anniversary of the site. I do wonder, given TBC's tendencies to make [[Strongest Man In The World|10th]] [[Where My Hat Is At? (toon)|anniversary toons]], if they will do something themselves to note the occasion. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:21, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 51]] (Dec 14-20)===
It's [[Decemberween]] again! It's here, it's here! The week before is a minor article. This would be a good time to take care of the only remaining larger piece of [[Decemberween In July]], [[Decemberween Sweet Cuppin' Cakes]]. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:That would work, but I think we should do [[Peanuts]]. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 02:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[A Holiday Greeting]]? Although [[Peanuts]] would be good, too, since it's been a bit more expanded and would probably make good article fodder. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:41, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 52]] (Dec 21-27)===
And in time for Decemberween, why don't we feature a toon that has been overlooked, [[A Decemberween Pageant]]. I think that is the last of the "older" D'ween toons that hasn't been featured, and it also provides a lot of the mythology of this holiday 55 days after Halloween. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:I think [[The Battle of Strong Badia]] is a ''great'' article. Maybe we should feature that one. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:16, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
::You don't understand. For Decemberween, we feature a Decemberween article. It's a fine article, but pick another week to do it. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 22:03, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
:::Oh, I didn't notice that that was around Christmas. All right, [[A Decemberween Pageant]] sounds just fine. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 22:08, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRwiki:Featured article for 2010, week 1]] (Dec 28-Jan 3)===
[[The Field]]. A place that appears in probably half the cartoons on the site. [[User:Jc iindyysgvxc|Jc iindyysgvxc]] 05:06, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:We're getting too far ahead again. I'll keep this one up, but please stay within 10 weeks in the future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:08, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::And it's far too short, still. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 15:46, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:::I wonder if it might be expandable. It most certainly is too short (prose-wise) at this point, but it's also certainly an important place. It's something to consider, at least. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:54, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
::::I think that if we can't get the prose we want from the field, then we should try doing the Dangeresque dailies this week. As mentioned before. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:40, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::I don't think we should do another set of dailies so soon after the ones we did last week (as of post time). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:24, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::I would like to do another set very soon, though. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:12, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well there IS a 12 week difference... up to concensus though... {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 22:04, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Well If concensus says no to the dailies and the field, we could do the Battle of Strong Badia. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 22:16, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 43]] (Oct 19-25)===
Almost Halloween! This week is our week to feature something Halloween-related other than a full toon. I was thinking maybe [[Marshie vs. Little Girl]] if no one has any better ideas. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about the email [[ghosts]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:38, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::Also a good possibility, especially since it will have been a reasonable amount of time since the latest sbemail. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:14, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Have we already done [[halloweener]]? If not, that could be a possibility. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 01:40, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::We haven't, though I'd prefer [[ghosts]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::[[ghosts]] sounds good. Nice 'n funny, [[Bad Graphics Ghost]], yeah, it'll work.
::::::Bad graphics ghost is good... I like it...
:::::::I'm be fine with ghosts; let's save halloweener for now. But, if we don't have the HRWiki Halloween theme up and running for that week, I'd like to nominate [[Pistols for Pandas]] (PfP, I'll just say) in reference to our struggling fund-raising drive (and the clever excerpt from it on [[HRWiki:DO YOU HAS?]]). While I don't like it when new toons and such are featured too early (like, "within two years" early), I wouldn't mind it in this case. I would have recommended PfP for week 42 but I didn't have the time. {{User:Soiled Bargains/sig}} 02:43, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 44]] (Oct 26-Nov 1)===
Ween. We usually feature a full-length Halloween toon this week. We've already featured [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], [[Homestarloween Party]] and [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]], so let's think of a different one. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], my personal favorite. Though I'm not sure how much that matters when choosing FAs... {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 20:09, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::There are definitely some reasons this toon is noteworthy; for example, it was the first interactive Halloween toon, and it established the trend of Homsar as a secret character in H'ween toons. Also was the last one to feature voting on costumes, and had a sort of [[Halloween Awards Show|addendum]] released five years later. All told, I think this'd make a good FA. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:32, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Sorry if it seems like I'm being hasty and dismissing your ideas (don't get me wrong, Sucky Treats looks like a good one), but what about [[Jibblies 2]]? That's a good one, too. A lot of people really like that one. The plot is intense, the characters are off the wall here and it's great. "Sucky Treats", however, doesn't really have much to write up on, short of just the characters coming to the house in question and maybe Homsar being introduced in the Halloween toons here. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::::That's also a good one. Either one could make a fine FA, though Sucky Treats is more historic, and I don't agree that there'd be a problem with writing it up. So, let's hear from others about what we should feature. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:20, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::I'm kinda leaning towards Sucky Treats, myself. A very pivotal and important toon for many reasons. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 00:01, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::'''Sucky Treats'''. -Espemon333
:::::::Hey, Espemon. Just to let you know, this isn't really a vote, but a discussion. For that reason, it's important to give a reason for your opinion. Thanks. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:29, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Oh, well in that case, Sucky Treats is the (don't quote me on this) first interactive Halloween cartoon, and the one of the ones where you can vote, plus the first appearance of the coolest character in the Homestar Runner Universe in a Halloween Cartoon, [[HOMSAR]]!!!!!!!!!!!
:::::::::Actually, Homsar first appeared in the [[homsar]] email. Sorry, just making a little observation there. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:40, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Oops. I meant in a Halloween Cartoon. Sorry. [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 16:08, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Actually, Sucky Treats is the first one where he stops making sense, he talked normally in MAM 5.0 and [[homsar]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 19:13, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::my vote is for [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] because it was in my oppinion the best! Plus it holds the record for the most easter eggs--[[user:safariventureman|safariventureman]] 00:50, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::So... what is the current consensus? It seems all over the place at this point... {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::I think most of the people here want to do [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:10, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::Got it! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 45]] (Nov 2-8)===
For this week, we should do something we have not done in a long time: a game. I'm thinking maybe [[Kid Speedy]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 21:57, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:[[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Week_40.2C_2007|Already been featured]]. Though I would like to see a game get featured. Maybe [[Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 22:54, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
::If you want to do an older game, [[Awexome Cross]] would be fine candidate. I think I prefer that to Dangerdesque. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 23:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Dangerdesque is a bit too recent to be featured IMO. Awexome Cross, Pop:Tire, or Duck Guardian One would be excellent candidates for a game feature. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:02, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::I wouldn't mind Awexome Cross. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Oh, dear, I had forgotten about Kid Speedy already being used. Sure, we can do Awexome Cross, I guess. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::I disagree with Dangeresque being too new. By the time November comes around, it should be about a year old and Videlectrix will have made another Roomisode. But I see why you guys want to feature "older" games. I'd like to see Pop:Tire or Awexome. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 11:18, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, what if (not right now, of course, but sometime down the line) the next set of dailies for a week was all Dangeresque-themed and we included this into the proceedings? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Good idea, MHarrington! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:24, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::If we are going to do an old game for that week, maybe we should do Awexome Cross. By November 2-8, it will be ''exactly'' six years and nine months old. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 16:07, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Yeah... Awexome cross! {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 17:15, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 46]] (Nov 9-15)===
For this week, we should do another [[Teen Girl Squad]] character, one who is a staple of the series: [[Arrow'd Guy]]! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:24, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:I was thinking about doing the [[Monosodium Dreams]], assuming we haven't already done it. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[The movie theater]]... [[The battle of Strong Badia]] is also a good one... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::We have not shown [[Monosodium Dreams]] or [[The Movie Theater]] yet, so why don't we do them in the near future? We could do one next week and then the next one two weeks later, since the week before that is Thanksgiving and I have an idea in mind for that one already. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:02, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::Just a comment: remember we are trying to keep FAS to only 10 weeks ahead. We've been creeping up lately (and I've been guilty of same). {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 19:36, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Wbwolf's right. We'll go ahead and leave it for now, but let's keep it down to 10 weeks in advance of the current week in the future. Another thing: don't forget that in a discussion, if you propose a new idea after someone else's, you should always respond to the previous one (perhaps giving a reason you think your choice is more suitable). Otherwise, it's not really a discussion, and it's hard to determine where consensus really lies. (Don't forget that this isn't a vote, contrary to what it may seem sometimes.)
:::::As for my opinion: I do think Arrow'd Guy really deserves a turn in the spotlight, particularly because it's been a while since we've had a TGS-related feature. The other two ideas suggested also look deserving, so I suggest we keep them in mind for the near future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::But wait, wouldn't we have just done TGS 13 for week 39? {{User:Bubs 20X6/sig}} 01:36, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Yes, but that doesn't mean that something like this can't be done for a long time if that's what we go with then. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:47, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Well we did do TGS 13, But Arrow'd Guy works for me. Monosodium, your time to shine comes soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:45, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I'd forgotten we had TGS 13 on the queue. Oh well, I stand corrected. It's still not going to be a problem to do Arrow'd guy this week, though we could delay him if people want to spread out TGS a bit. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:06, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::No, Arrow'd Guy's been delayed ever since we featured [[Whats-Her-Face]]. I think he's waited long enough. Let's do him this week. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:43, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Okay. Seems good. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 16:18, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::No, he has not been delayed since we featured What's Her Face, as there was only one editor campaigning to feature Arrow'd Guy then. The fact that that editor didn't get what he wanted does not mean that article has been delayed. It's coming exactly on time: When consensus favours it. I.e., this week. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:37, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::What I meant is that, after the time of featuring what's-her-face, the idea of featuring him had been tossed around, but ultimately it was decided he was suited for a later period of time (after featuring The Ugly One, a few weeks after a few issues had been featured, etc.). Perhaps he wasn't ''delayed'' for almost a year so much as ''been taken under consideration'' for a year, if you want it in politically correct terms, but the point is that there really isn't much sense in putting off a deserving article any longer than it already has. I'm sorry if I came off as sour, Heimstern, but I feel that this article is in dire need of featuring and shouldn't be denied it merely because another TGS-related article had been featured over two months previously. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 18:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::So far, no one seems to have seriously objected to featuring it this week, despite the relatively short gap between this and the last TGS, so I think we're fine. '''I'm''' certainly not going to, since I think TGS is one of the most awesomest things on the site and always like to see more articles about it get featured. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:28, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::<s>Does anyone oppose to [[French Fries]]?</s> {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 15:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Well I think we should change this one to next week, and do monosodium this week, so we can better space out the articles. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:39, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 47]] (Nov 16-22)===
This week, it's time for a cop-out that was responsible for more confusion than almost any toon before it: [[Sbemailiarized!]]{{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:24, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:While an interesting article, I think it'd be more suitable for April Fools Day, since it was the basis for 2009's [[April Fool 09|April Fool joke]]. I think we'd need to mention that in the writeup, and that that'd look kind of out-of-place right before Thanksgiving. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:43, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::What about one of last week's suggestions: [[Monosodium Dreams]]. The [[Corpy NT6]] would work too... {{User:LePorello/sig}} 15:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Since it's Thanksgiving week, I suggest the we feature original Thanksgiving toon.... [[Some Stupid Turkey]]! {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 22:40, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
:It's historic, but it's a bit short; I'm not sure we could get a decent writeup out of it. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:30, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
::Here is a writeup I made for this week's featured article:

[[Image:stupidturkey.PNG|left|180px|Some Stupid Turkey]]
'''[[Some Stupid Turkey]]''' is [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]]'s first [[Thanksgiving]] toon that was released on Tuesday, November 27, 2001. [[Strong Bad]] starts this toon with him dressed as a turkey, and begins to sing a Thanksgiving song about a turkey. The song ends with a few of the main characters singing "Go and suck your thumb". [[Homestar Runner]] then says to let them go and partake of their wonderous feast, only to find that it was eaten by [[The King of Town]]. '''[[Some Stupid Turkey|(more...)]]'''

::I hope this helps. Also, if this is used, replace the Image placement with a Featured Article template. I didn't use that, as this is not a featured article yet. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 00:07, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
:::What about [[Twenty THANXty Six]]? I have proposed this for four reasons: 1) Some Stupid Turkey is a tad short, whereas 2008's Thanksgiving toon is a bit longer; 2) It's been a long time since we've done ''anything'' related to [[20X6]]; 3) I think we need to do a toon ''not'' from 2001 for once; and 4) We usually do Thanksgiving toons from the previous year (i.e., 2005's [[Fall Float Parade]] in 2006, 2006's [[Let Us Give Tanks!]] in 2007, etc.).

::::I should point out that the only reason that we've done the previous year's toon for Thanksgiving is only because they have become a regular feature in the last few years. Having said that, though, I have to agree that Some Stupid Turkey is too short, even with the write up, to feature. There's not a whole lot in the [[:Category:Thanksgiving|T'giving category]]; the only other ones that haven't been featured are [[Happy T!]] and [[Limozeen Thanksgiving E-cards]]. [[Happy T!]] is also too short, but if we don't do [[Twenty THANXty Six]], the E-cards might be interesting. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:31, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Well, if they keep adding more T'giving toons, maybe we won't have to worry about running out of T'giving articles. Maybe the E-cards could be shown next week? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:18, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::I don't think we should have two Thanksgiving-themed FAs, especially since we don't have an inexhaustible supply of them. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:39, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, we did have two T'giving-themed FAs last year (the [[colonization]] email and [[Toikey TV]]), so I don't know. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:50, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::In retrospect, I don't think that was a good idea and that we should have saved one of those for later. Too late now, but I think we'd best not repeat it this year. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:53, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::Okay, then we won't. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyway, in keeping with how T'giving toons have been articled in the past, I think we should do [[Twenty THANXty Six]] this year. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:10, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::I think that's best, too. There's not a lot of Thanksgiving articles, and this one would clearly make a fine writeup. Stupid Turkey could work in a pinch, like, if we run out of T-giving toons sometime (which we could if TBC take the holiday off a few times), but for now I think we should stick with something more substantial. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:16, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Yeah, SST can wait. I amm quite partial to <s>Horpy Tor!</s> Happy T!, but I am not really sure about the substance. It really Isn't FA material, because there isn't much to be said! Limozeen or THANKSty would work, but THANKSty could be a bit too soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::Actually, it would be carrying on the "tradition" of having the previous year's T'giving toon be articled (i.e., 2005's T'giving toon in 2006, 2006's in 2007 and 2007's in 2008). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 49]] (Nov 30-Dec 6)===
For this week, let's do one that seems to have gotten a lot of attention: [[The Movie Theater]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:18, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well it does have a good intro and a decent amount of appearances, so it sounds good, but for reasons untold, can simone produce a write up for me? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:25, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
[[File:The movies.png|left|180px|The movie theater]]
'''[[The movie theater]]''' is where movies are watched, sometimes by force. [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Pom Pom]] brought [[Coach Z]] here to watch a film about the word "job" in the toon [[A Jorb Well Done]]. Along with that, the theater has also shown films such as Women's Penitentiary Bakesale Nightmare, Fists of Knuckles 1-24, Axe Gun: Legends of the Brain Outener, and Pom Pom's Indie film [[City (comma) State]]. As revealed in [[rated]], It is one of the few theaters that show triple R-rated movies. The theater is featured prominently in the email [[the movies]], where it is revealed that [[Senor Cardgage]] has a job as the ticket-taker. '''[[The movie theater|(more)]]'''

Here's my write-up. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 18:42, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well that works for me! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:49, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
::I support this article, but as a side note, it's not necessary to do the write up this far in advance. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 18:55, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:::Yeah, but I was just making sure. For reasons. Important reasons. {facedesk, facedesk, facedesk} {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:02, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::::Hey, I just realized that December 6 is the website's 10 birthday! Should we do anything special? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:13, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::[[homestarrunner.com]] could work as a website's 10th anniversary FA. I think we should do it only on December 6, and maybe have special decorations on the "This week's/today's featured article." {{User:Mr_Eyeball}}
::::::Yeah, that sounds great, especially seeing as it is the website's 10th Birthday, and not the body of work's. How would we do it to where it is only 1 day? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 02:32, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 50]] (Dec 7-13)===
For this week, we should do another [[Cheat Commandos]] character. I'm thinking [[Silent Rip]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:44, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
I myself was thinking that the [[Taranchula Black Metal Detector]] would work. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 00:09, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
:First off, I think we are getting WAY too far ahead of ourselves, and second, any particular reason why? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:07, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well, it looks like both articles are good, but we haven't done anything Cheat Commandos since I joined the wiki (far as I know) and we did Words I probably said like 2 weeks ago. Silent Rip works for me. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::I think it might be better to have [[homestarrunner.com]] or [[Timeline of Homestar Runner]] as the FA for this week, since the 6th is the 10 year anniversary of the site. I do wonder, given TBC's tendencies to make [[Strongest Man In The World|10th]] [[Where My Hat Is At? (toon)|anniversary toons]], if they will do something themselves to note the occasion. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:21, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 51]] (Dec 14-20)===
It's [[Decemberween]] again! It's here, it's here! The week before is a minor article. This would be a good time to take care of the only remaining larger piece of [[Decemberween In July]], [[Decemberween Sweet Cuppin' Cakes]]. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:That would work, but I think we should do [[Peanuts]]. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 02:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[A Holiday Greeting]]? Although [[Peanuts]] would be good, too, since it's been a bit more expanded and would probably make good article fodder. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:41, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 52]] (Dec 21-27)===
And in time for Decemberween, why don't we feature a toon that has been overlooked, [[A Decemberween Pageant]]. I think that is the last of the "older" D'ween toons that hasn't been featured, and it also provides a lot of the mythology of this holiday 55 days after Halloween. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:I think [[The Battle of Strong Badia]] is a ''great'' article. Maybe we should feature that one. {{User:MichaelXX2/sig}} 21:16, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
::You don't understand. For Decemberween, we feature a Decemberween article. It's a fine article, but pick another week to do it. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 22:03, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRwiki:Featured article for 2010, week 1]] (Dec 28-Jan 3)===
[[The Field]]. A place that appears in probably half the cartoons on the site. [[User:Jc iindyysgvxc|Jc iindyysgvxc]] 05:06, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:We're getting too far ahead again. I'll keep this one up, but please stay within 10 weeks in the future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:08, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::And it's far too short, still. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 15:46, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:::I wonder if it might be expandable. It most certainly is too short (prose-wise) at this point, but it's also certainly an important place. It's something to consider, at least. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:54, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
::::I think that if we can't get the prose we want from the field, then we should try doing the Dangeresque dailies this week. As mentioned before. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:40, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::I don't think we should do another set of dailies so soon after the ones we did last week (as of post time). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:24, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

'''MR. PITTERS' GHOST:''' ''{Still dressed as Cheerleader and wearing a dress with "worm food" on the front.}'' I look so good.

'''NARRATOR STRONG BAD:''' IT'S OVER!

==Easter Eggs==
* At the end, click the "o" to see Sci-Fi Greg brag to The Gregs about how the ladies and Valkyries are all over his experience points.
:'''SCI-FI GREG:''' I knew she'd come back to me. Ever since my experience points went into triple digits I've had to keep the ladies and valkyries off with a 2 handed plus 3 broad sword.
:'''D N' D GREG:''' ''{leaning in from the left}'' Hey! Quit bitin my style!

* Also at the end, click the "!" to see the "Over Achiever" strike Tompkins' homework.
:'''TOMPKINS:''' ''{holding a piece of paper with mathematical symbols on it, graded "A+++++"}'' Hey! Who did the rest of my pre-algebra homework?
:'''SO AND SO:''' ''{leaning in from the right, wearing a Lone Ranger mask and a handkerchief over her mouth}'' The Over-Achiever Bandit strikes again!!!

==Fun Facts==

===Explanations===
*Although Strong Bad says BFF stands for BAOW! FOM! FROOSH!, the acronym usually stands for "Best Friends Forever."
*Sci-fi Greg's speech in the Easter Egg uses terminology from [[Wikipedia:Dungeons and Dragons|Dungeons and Dragons]], or "D&D", which is why D n' D Greg accuses him of "bitin' my style."
*In the United States, a learner's permit is granted by some states to drivers as young as fourteen. When drivers have a permit, they must be accompanied by a licensed driver.
*A [[Wikipedia:galleon|galleon]] was a large, multi-decked sailing ship used primarily by the nations of Europe from the 16th to 18th centuries.
*For many years, American teenagers were taught in Driver's Education class that the proper position for hands on the steering wheel was ten o'clock for the left hand and two o'clock for the right. Most teenagers are now taught to hold the wheel at nine and three o'clock.
*According to Norse Mythology, [[Wikipedia:Valkyrie|Valkyries]] were fierce warrior-women who would swoop down on a battlefield, carrying away fallen warriors to [[Wikipedia:Valhalla|Valhalla]].

===Trivia===
*The song Strong Bad sings in this episode has him singing the lowest note of all the musical interludes he performs on homestarrunner.com (low C, below the bass clef).

===Remarks===
*Vultures usually do not actively kill animals to feed, as implied with Mr. Pitters, but wait for the animal in question to die of other causes before feeding.
*Mr. Pitters's rib cage opens out of his back on his dead body, even though that's where the spine should be.
*Generally speaking, American teenagers get a driver's license at about sixteen years of age. Given the fact that she's had a driver's license for a year, it appears that What's Her Face is at least seventeen years old, a hint to her relative [[Ages of Characters#Teen Girl Squad|age]].
*This cartoon has neither an "Again" nor a "Back" link at the end.
*Assuming Science Fiction Greg was indeed referring to Dungeons and Dragons, he would still be a level one character if his experience points were still only in triple digits; a character becomes level two at 1,000 experience points.

===Goofs===
*When Cheerleader leaps in happiness over her friendship with Crazy Learner's Permit Girl, the horizon line cuts off where she stood.
*The font used for Strong Bad's handwriting contains European Qs and 7s, which have small lines running through them. Normally, [[The Brothers Chaps]] edit them, removing the lines, but they didn't here.

===Inside References===
*Mr. Pitters's last line, "I look so good," is Cheerleader's last line in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 1]].
*Inside Babbage's is a sign that appears to offer [[Cheap as Free]] software, although it is partially obscured.
*Mr. Pitters' obsession with [[Ointment and Old Person Rub|ointment]] is a running gag.
*The phrases Cheerleader uses to address the Squad, "my Spanish galleons" and "my art galleries", are an extension of the phrase used in [[Decemberween Teen Girl Squad]], "my gallies."
*This is another mention of [[showering]].

===Real-World References===
*Now known as [[Wikipedia:GameStop|GameStop]], Babbage's, along with Software, Etc., Electronic Boutique/EB Games and FuncoLand, were popular chains of software stores. There are some [http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&rls=GGLD%2CGGLD%3A2004-13%2CGGLD%3Aen&biw=801&q=babbage%27s+software&btnG=Search Babbage's] stores still in business today, while some of the stores merely changed names. Franchises in Canada are still generally operated under the name EB Games.
*The [[Wikipedia:TurboGrafx-16|TurboGrafx-16]] was a fourth-generation video game console released by NEC in 1989, for the North American market. It did not sell well, in large part because of the stranglehold [[Nintendo]] had on the home video game market at the time.
*The "Johnny Rite There" label on the [[Minor Teen Girl Squad Characters#Port-O-John|Port-O-John]] is a reference to [http://www.johnnyonthespot.com Johnny On The Spot, Inc.], a major US manufacturer and distributor of portable toilet stalls.

===Fast Forward===
*The two characters that Sci-Fi Greg brags to in the Easter Egg appear as [[Open Source Greg]] and [[Japanese Culture Greg]] in [[4 Gregs]].

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 43]] (Oct 19-25)===
Almost Halloween! This week is our week to feature something Halloween-related other than a full toon. I was thinking maybe [[Marshie vs. Little Girl]] if no one has any better ideas. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about the email [[ghosts]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:38, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::Also a good possibility, especially since it will have been a reasonable amount of time since the latest sbemail. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:14, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Have we already done [[halloweener]]? If not, that could be a possibility. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 01:40, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::We haven't, though I'd prefer [[ghosts]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::[[ghosts]] sounds good. Nice 'n funny, [[Bad Graphics Ghost]], yeah, it'll work.
::::::Bad graphics ghost is good... I like it...
:::::::I'm be fine with ghosts; let's save halloweener for now. But, if we don't have the HRWiki Halloween theme up and running for that week, I'd like to nominate [[Pistols for Pandas]] (PfP, I'll just say) in reference to our struggling fund-raising drive (and the clever excerpt from it on [[HRWiki:DO YOU HAS?]]). While I don't like it when new toons and such are featured too early (like, "within two years" early), I wouldn't mind it in this case. I would have recommended PfP for week 42 but I didn't have the time. {{User:Soiled Bargains/sig}} 02:43, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 44]] (Oct 26-Nov 1)===
Ween. We usually feature a full-length Halloween toon this week. We've already featured [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], [[Homestarloween Party]] and [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]], so let's think of a different one. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], my personal favorite. Though I'm not sure how much that matters when choosing FAs... {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 20:09, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::There are definitely some reasons this toon is noteworthy; for example, it was the first interactive Halloween toon, and it established the trend of Homsar as a secret character in H'ween toons. Also was the last one to feature voting on costumes, and had a sort of [[Halloween Awards Show|addendum]] released five years later. All told, I think this'd make a good FA. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:32, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Sorry if it seems like I'm being hasty and dismissing your ideas (don't get me wrong, Sucky Treats looks like a good one), but what about [[Jibblies 2]]? That's a good one, too. A lot of people really like that one. The plot is intense, the characters are off the wall here and it's great. "Sucky Treats", however, doesn't really have much to write up on, short of just the characters coming to the house in question and maybe Homsar being introduced in the Halloween toons here. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::::That's also a good one. Either one could make a fine FA, though Sucky Treats is more historic, and I don't agree that there'd be a problem with writing it up. So, let's hear from others about what we should feature. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:20, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::I'm kinda leaning towards Sucky Treats, myself. A very pivotal and important toon for many reasons. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 00:01, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::'''Sucky Treats'''. -Espemon333
:::::::Hey, Espemon. Just to let you know, this isn't really a vote, but a discussion. For that reason, it's important to give a reason for your opinion. Thanks. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:29, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Oh, well in that case, Sucky Treats is the (don't quote me on this) first interactive Halloween cartoon, and the one of the ones where you can vote, plus the first appearance of the coolest character in the Homestar Runner Universe in a Halloween Cartoon, [[HOMSAR]]!!!!!!!!!!!
:::::::::Actually, Homsar first appeared in the [[homsar]] email. Sorry, just making a little observation there. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:40, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Oops. I meant in a Halloween Cartoon. Sorry. [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 16:08, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Actually, Sucky Treats is the first one where he stops making sense, he talked normally in MAM 5.0 and [[homsar]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 19:13, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::my vote is for [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] because it was in my oppinion the best! Plus it holds the record for the most easter eggs--[[user:safariventureman|safariventureman]] 00:50, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::So... what is the current consensus? It seems all over the place at this point... {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::I think most of the people here want to do [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:10, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::Got it! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 45]] (Nov 2-8)===
For this week, we should do something we have not done in a long time: a game. I'm thinking maybe [[Kid Speedy]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 21:57, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:[[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Week_40.2C_2007|Already been featured]]. Though I would like to see a game get featured. Maybe [[Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 22:54, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
::If you want to do an older game, [[Awexome Cross]] would be fine candidate. I think I prefer that to Dangerdesque. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 23:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Dangerdesque is a bit too recent to be featured IMO. Awexome Cross, Pop:Tire, or Duck Guardian One would be excellent candidates for a game feature. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:02, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::I wouldn't mind Awexome Cross. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Oh, dear, I had forgotten about Kid Speedy already being used. Sure, we can do Awexome Cross, I guess. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::I disagree with Dangeresque being too new. By the time November comes around, it should be about a year old and Videlectrix will have made another Roomisode. But I see why you guys want to feature "older" games. I'd like to see Pop:Tire or Awexome. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 11:18, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, what if (not right now, of course, but sometime down the line) the next set of dailies for a week was all Dangeresque-themed and we included this into the proceedings? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Good idea, MHarrington! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:24, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::If we are going to do an old game for that week, maybe we should do Awexome Cross. By November 2-8, it will be ''exactly'' six years and nine months old. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 16:07, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Yeah... Awexome cross! {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 17:15, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 46]] (Nov 9-15)===
For this week, we should do another [[Teen Girl Squad]] character, one who is a staple of the series: [[Arrow'd Guy]]! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:24, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:I was thinking about doing the [[Monosodium Dreams]], assuming we haven't already done it. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[The movie theater]]... [[The battle of Strong Badia]] is also a good one... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::We have not shown [[Monosodium Dreams]] or [[The Movie Theater]] yet, so why don't we do them in the near future? We could do one next week and then the next one two weeks later, since the week before that is Thanksgiving and I have an idea in mind for that one already. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:02, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::Just a comment: remember we are trying to keep FAS to only 10 weeks ahead. We've been creeping up lately (and I've been guilty of same). {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 19:36, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Wbwolf's right. We'll go ahead and leave it for now, but let's keep it down to 10 weeks in advance of the current week in the future. Another thing: don't forget that in a discussion, if you propose a new idea after someone else's, you should always respond to the previous one (perhaps giving a reason you think your choice is more suitable). Otherwise, it's not really a discussion, and it's hard to determine where consensus really lies. (Don't forget that this isn't a vote, contrary to what it may seem sometimes.)
:::::As for my opinion: I do think Arrow'd Guy really deserves a turn in the spotlight, particularly because it's been a while since we've had a TGS-related feature. The other two ideas suggested also look deserving, so I suggest we keep them in mind for the near future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::But wait, wouldn't we have just done TGS 13 for week 39? {{User:Bubs 20X6/sig}} 01:36, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Yes, but that doesn't mean that something like this can't be done for a long time if that's what we go with then. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:47, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Well we did do TGS 13, But Arrow'd Guy works for me. Monosodium, your time to shine comes soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:45, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I'd forgotten we had TGS 13 on the queue. Oh well, I stand corrected. It's still not going to be a problem to do Arrow'd guy this week, though we could delay him if people want to spread out TGS a bit. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:06, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::No, Arrow'd Guy's been delayed ever since we featured [[Whats-Her-Face]]. I think he's waited long enough. Let's do him this week. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:43, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Okay. Seems good. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 16:18, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::No, he has not been delayed since we featured What's Her Face, as there was only one editor campaigning to feature Arrow'd Guy then. The fact that that editor didn't get what he wanted does not mean that article has been delayed. It's coming exactly on time: When consensus favours it. I.e., this week. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:37, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::What I meant is that, after the time of featuring what's-her-face, the idea of featuring him had been tossed around, but ultimately it was decided he was suited for a later period of time (after featuring The Ugly One, a few weeks after a few issues had been featured, etc.). Perhaps he wasn't ''delayed'' for almost a year so much as ''been taken under consideration'' for a year, if you want it in politically correct terms, but the point is that there really isn't much sense in putting off a deserving article any longer than it already has. I'm sorry if I came off as sour, Heimstern, but I feel that this article is in dire need of featuring and shouldn't be denied it merely because another TGS-related article had been featured over two months previously. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 18:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::So far, no one seems to have seriously objected to featuring it this week, despite the relatively short gap between this and the last TGS, so I think we're fine. '''I'm''' certainly not going to, since I think TGS is one of the most awesomest things on the site and always like to see more articles about it get featured. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:28, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::<s>Does anyone oppose to [[French Fries]]?</s> {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 15:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::::Well I think we should change this one to next week, and do monosodium this week, so we can better space out the articles. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:39, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 47]] (Nov 16-22)===
This week, it's time for a cop-out that was responsible for more confusion than almost any toon before it: [[Sbemailiarized!]]{{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:24, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:While an interesting article, I think it'd be more suitable for April Fools Day, since it was the basis for 2009's [[April Fool 09|April Fool joke]]. I think we'd need to mention that in the writeup, and that that'd look kind of out-of-place right before Thanksgiving. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:43, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::What about one of last week's suggestions: [[Monosodium Dreams]]. The [[Corpy NT6]] would work too... {{User:LePorello/sig}} 15:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:::[[The movie theater]]? anyone... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:58, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::Monosodium Dreams looks fine to me. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 17:07, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Sure, I'm game for The Cheat's new computer. But please, let's wait until it's below ten articles in the list before we put up any more in the future, can we? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:56, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::Yeah, let's do Monosodium Dreams, and we can save Sbemailiarized! until after March Break. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 18:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Since it's Thanksgiving week, I suggest the we feature original Thanksgiving toon.... [[Some Stupid Turkey]]! {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 22:40, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
:It's historic, but it's a bit short; I'm not sure we could get a decent writeup out of it. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:30, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
::Here is a writeup I made for this week's featured article:

[[Image:stupidturkey.PNG|left|180px|Some Stupid Turkey]]
'''[[Some Stupid Turkey]]''' is [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]]'s first [[Thanksgiving]] toon that was released on Tuesday, November 27, 2001. [[Strong Bad]] starts this toon with him dressed as a turkey, and begins to sing a Thanksgiving song about a turkey. The song ends with a few of the main characters singing "Go and suck your thumb". [[Homestar Runner]] then says to let them go and partake of their wonderous feast, only to find that it was eaten by [[The King of Town]]. '''[[Some Stupid Turkey|(more...)]]'''

::I hope this helps. Also, if this is used, replace the Image placement with a Featured Article template. I didn't use that, as this is not a featured article yet. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 00:07, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
:::What about [[Twenty THANXty Six]]? I have proposed this for four reasons: 1) Some Stupid Turkey is a tad short, whereas 2008's Thanksgiving toon is a bit longer; 2) It's been a long time since we've done ''anything'' related to [[20X6]]; 3) I think we need to do a toon ''not'' from 2001 for once; and 4) We usually do Thanksgiving toons from the previous year (i.e., 2005's [[Fall Float Parade]] in 2006, 2006's [[Let Us Give Tanks!]] in 2007, etc.). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 03:09, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
::::I should point out that the only reason that we've done the previous year's toon for Thanksgiving is only because they have become a regular feature in the last few years. Having said that, though, I have to agree that Some Stupid Turkey is too short, even with the write up, to feature. There's not a whole lot in the [[:Category:Thanksgiving|T'giving category]]; the only other ones that haven't been featured are [[Happy T!]] and [[Limozeen Thanksgiving E-cards]]. [[Happy T!]] is also too short, but if we don't do [[Twenty THANXty Six]], the E-cards might be interesting. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:31, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Well, if they keep adding more T'giving toons, maybe we won't have to worry about running out of T'giving articles. Maybe the E-cards could be shown next week? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:18, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::I don't think we should have two Thanksgiving-themed FAs, especially since we don't have an inexhaustible supply of them. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:39, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, we did have two T'giving-themed FAs last year (the [[colonization]] email and [[Toikey TV]]), so I don't know. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:50, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::In retrospect, I don't think that was a good idea and that we should have saved one of those for later. Too late now, but I think we'd best not repeat it this year. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:53, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::Okay, then we won't. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyway, in keeping with how T'giving toons have been articled in the past, I think we should do [[Twenty THANXty Six]] this year. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:10, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::I think that's best, too. There's not a lot of Thanksgiving articles, and this one would clearly make a fine writeup. Stupid Turkey could work in a pinch, like, if we run out of T-giving toons sometime (which we could if TBC take the holiday off a few times), but for now I think we should stick with something more substantial. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:16, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Yeah, SST can wait. I amm quite partial to <s>Horpy Tor!</s> Happy T!, but I am not really sure about the substance. It really Isn't FA material, because there isn't much to be said! Limozeen or THANKSty would work, but THANKSty could be a bit too soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::Actually, it would be carrying on the "tradition" of having the previous year's T'giving toon be articled (i.e., 2005's T'giving toon in 2006, 2006's in 2007 and 2007's in 2008). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 49]] (Nov 30-Dec 6)===
For this week, let's do one that seems to have gotten a lot of attention: [[The Movie Theater]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:18, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well it does have a good intro and a decent amount of appearances, so it sounds good, but for reasons untold, can simone produce a write up for me? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:25, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
[[File:The movies.png|left|180px|The movie theater]]
'''[[The movie theater]]''' is where movies are watched, sometimes by force. [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Pom Pom]] brought [[Coach Z]] here to watch a film about the word "job" in the toon [[A Jorb Well Done]]. Along with that, the theater has also shown films such as Women's Penitentiary Bakesale Nightmare, Fists of Knuckles 1-24, Axe Gun: Legends of the Brain Outener, and Pom Pom's Indie film [[City (comma) State]]. As revealed in [[rated]], It is one of the few theaters that show triple R-rated movies. The theater is featured prominently in the email [[the movies]], where it is revealed that [[Senor Cardgage]] has a job as the ticket-taker. '''[[The movie theater|(more)]]'''

Here's my write-up. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 18:42, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well that works for me! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:49, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
::I support this article, but as a side note, it's not necessary to do the write up this far in advance. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 18:55, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

:::::[[homestarrunner.com]] could work as a website's 10th anniversary FA. I think we should do it only on December 6, and maybe have special decorations on the "This week's/today's featured article." {{User:Mr_Eyeball}}
::::::Yeah, that sounds great, especially seeing as it is the website's 10th Birthday, and not the body of work's. How would we do it to where it is only 1 day? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 02:32, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should do another [[Cheat Commandos]] character. I'm thinking [[Silent Rip]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:44, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
I myself was thinking that the [[Taranchula Black Metal Detector]] would work. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 00:09, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
:First off, I think we are getting WAY too far ahead of ourselves, and second, any particular reason why? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:07, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well, it looks like both articles are good, but we haven't done anything Cheat Commandos since I joined the wiki (far as I know) and we did Words I probably said like 2 weeks ago. Silent Rip works for me. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
::I think it might be better to have [[homestarrunner.com]] or [[Timeline of Homestar Runner]] as the FA for this week, since the 6th is the 10 year anniversary of the site. I do wonder, given TBC's tendencies to make [[Strongest Man In The World|10th]] [[Where My Hat Is At?

:That would work, but I think we should do [[Peanuts]]. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 02:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[A Holiday Greeting]]? Although [[Peanuts]] would be good, too, since it's been a bit more expanded and would probably make good article fodder. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:41, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 52]] (Dec 21-27)===
And in time for Decemberween, why don't we feature a toon that has been overlooked, [[A Decemberween Pageant]]. I think that is the last of the "older" D'ween toons that hasn't been featured, and it also provides a lot of the mythology of this holiday 55 days after Halloween. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

[[The Field]]. A place that appears in probably half the cartoons on the site. [[User:Jc iindyysgvxc|Jc iindyysgvxc]] 05:06, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:We're getting too far ahead again. I'll keep this one up, but please stay within 10 weeks in the future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:08, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::And it's far too short, still. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 15:46, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:::I wonder if it might be expandable. It most certainly is too short (prose-wise) at this point, but it's also certainly an important place. It's something to consider, at least. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:54, 13 October 2009 (UTC)
::::I think that if we can't get the prose we want from the field, then we should try doing the Dangeresque dailies this week. As mentioned before. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:40, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
:::::I don't think we should do another set of dailies so soon after the ones we did last week (as of post time). {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 04:24, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::I would like to do another set very soon, though. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:12, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 43]] (Oct 19-25)===
Almost Halloween! This week is our week to feature something Halloween-related other than a full toon. I was thinking maybe [[Marshie vs. Little Girl]] if no one has any better ideas. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about the email [[ghosts]]? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:38, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::Also a good possibility, especially since it will have been a reasonable amount of time since the latest sbemail. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 00:14, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Have we already done [[halloweener]]? If not, that could be a possibility. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 01:40, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::We haven't, though I'd prefer [[ghosts]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 12:50, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::[[ghosts]] sounds good. Nice 'n funny, [[Bad Graphics Ghost]], yeah, it'll work.
::::::Bad graphics ghost is good... I like it...
:::::::I'm be fine with ghosts; let's save halloweener for now. But, if we don't have the HRWiki Halloween theme up and running for that week, I'd like to nominate [[Pistols for Pandas]] (PfP, I'll just say) in reference to our struggling fund-raising drive (and the clever excerpt from it on [[HRWiki:DO YOU HAS?]]). While I don't like it when new toons and such are featured too early (like, "within two years" early), I wouldn't mind it in this case. I would have recommended PfP for week 42 but I didn't have the time. {{User:Soiled Bargains/sig}} 02:43, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 44]] (Oct 26-Nov 1)===
Ween. We usually feature a full-length Halloween toon this week. We've already featured [[Pumpkin Carve-nival]], [[Homestarloween Party]] and [[Halloween Potion-ma-jig]], so let's think of a different one. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:03, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:How about [[The House That Gave Sucky Treats]], my personal favorite. Though I'm not sure how much that matters when choosing FAs... {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 20:09, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::There are definitely some reasons this toon is noteworthy; for example, it was the first interactive Halloween toon, and it established the trend of Homsar as a secret character in H'ween toons. Also was the last one to feature voting on costumes, and had a sort of [[Halloween Awards Show|addendum]] released five years later. All told, I think this'd make a good FA. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 20:32, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Sorry if it seems like I'm being hasty and dismissing your ideas (don't get me wrong, Sucky Treats looks like a good one), but what about [[Jibblies 2]]? That's a good one, too. A lot of people really like that one. The plot is intense, the characters are off the wall here and it's great. "Sucky Treats", however, doesn't really have much to write up on, short of just the characters coming to the house in question and maybe Homsar being introduced in the Halloween toons here. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 22:36, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
::::That's also a good one. Either one could make a fine FA, though Sucky Treats is more historic, and I don't agree that there'd be a problem with writing it up. So, let's hear from others about what we should feature. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:20, 13 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::I'm kinda leaning towards Sucky Treats, myself. A very pivotal and important toon for many reasons. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 00:01, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::'''Sucky Treats'''. -Espemon333
:::::::Hey, Espemon. Just to let you know, this isn't really a vote, but a discussion. For that reason, it's important to give a reason for your opinion. Thanks. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 01:29, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Oh, well in that case, Sucky Treats is the (don't quote me on this) first interactive Halloween cartoon, and the one of the ones where you can vote, plus the first appearance of the coolest character in the Homestar Runner Universe in a Halloween Cartoon, [[HOMSAR]]!!!!!!!!!!!
:::::::::Actually, Homsar first appeared in the [[homsar]] email. Sorry, just making a little observation there. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:40, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Oops. I meant in a Halloween Cartoon. Sorry. [[User:Espemon333|-Espe Pwnage]] 16:08, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Actually, Sucky Treats is the first one where he stops making sense, he talked normally in MAM 5.0 and [[homsar]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 19:13, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::my vote is for [[3 Times Halloween Funjob]] because it was in my oppinion the best! Plus it holds the record for the most easter eggs--[[user:safariventureman|safariventureman]] 00:50, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::So... what is the current consensus? It seems all over the place at this point... {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:34, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 45]] (Nov 2-8)===
For this week, we should do something we have not done in a long time: a game. I'm thinking maybe [[Kid Speedy]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 21:57, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:[[HRWiki:Featured_articles/Archive_5#Week_40.2C_2007|Already been featured]]. Though I would like to see a game get featured. Maybe [[Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque]]. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 22:54, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
::If you want to do an older game, [[Awexome Cross]] would be fine candidate. I think I prefer that to Dangerdesque. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 23:44, 24 August 2009 (UTC)
:::Dangerdesque is a bit too recent to be featured IMO. Awexome Cross, Pop:Tire, or Duck Guardian One would be excellent candidates for a game feature. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:02, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::I wouldn't mind Awexome Cross. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 00:20, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Oh, dear, I had forgotten about Kid Speedy already being used. Sure, we can do Awexome Cross, I guess. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 00:40, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::I disagree with Dangeresque being too new. By the time November comes around, it should be about a year old and Videlectrix will have made another Roomisode. But I see why you guys want to feature "older" games. I'd like to see Pop:Tire or Awexome. {{User:Theycallmefree/sig}} 11:18, 25 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, what if (not right now, of course, but sometime down the line) the next set of dailies for a week was all Dangeresque-themed and we included this into the proceedings? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:09, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Good idea, MHarrington! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:24, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::If we are going to do an old game for that week, maybe we should do Awexome Cross. By November 2-8, it will be ''exactly'' six years and nine months old. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 16:07, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::Yeah... Awexome cross! {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 17:15, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 46]] (Nov 9-15)===
For this week, we should do another [[Teen Girl Squad]] character, one who is a staple of the series: [[Arrow'd Guy]]! [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:24, 28 August 2009 (UTC)
:I was thinking about doing the [[Monosodium Dreams]], assuming we haven't already done it. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 14:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[The movie theater]]... [[The battle of Strong Badia]] is also a good one... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:23, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::We have not shown [[Monosodium Dreams]] or [[The Movie Theater]] yet, so why don't we do them in the near future? We could do one next week and then the next one two weeks later, since the week before that is Thanksgiving and I have an idea in mind for that one already. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:02, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
::::Just a comment: remember we are trying to keep FAS to only 10 weeks ahead. We've been creeping up lately (and I've been guilty of same). {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 19:36, 29 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::Wbwolf's right. We'll go ahead and leave it for now, but let's keep it down to 10 weeks in advance of the current week in the future. Another thing: don't forget that in a discussion, if you propose a new idea after someone else's, you should always respond to the previous one (perhaps giving a reason you think your choice is more suitable). Otherwise, it's not really a discussion, and it's hard to determine where consensus really lies. (Don't forget that this isn't a vote, contrary to what it may seem sometimes.)
:::::As for my opinion: I do think Arrow'd Guy really deserves a turn in the spotlight, particularly because it's been a while since we've had a TGS-related feature. The other two ideas suggested also look deserving, so I suggest we keep them in mind for the near future. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 09:19, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::But wait, wouldn't we have just done TGS 13 for week 39? {{User:Bubs 20X6/sig}} 01:36, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Yes, but that doesn't mean that something like this can't be done for a long time if that's what we go with then. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 14:47, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
::::::::Well we did do TGS 13, But Arrow'd Guy works for me. Monosodium, your time to shine comes soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:45, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::I'd forgotten we had TGS 13 on the queue. Oh well, I stand corrected. It's still not going to be a problem to do Arrow'd guy this week, though we could delay him if people want to spread out TGS a bit. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:06, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::No, Arrow'd Guy's been delayed ever since we featured [[Whats-Her-Face]]. I think he's waited long enough. Let's do him this week. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:43, 2 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Okay. Seems good. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 16:18, 4 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::No, he has not been delayed since we featured What's Her Face, as there was only one editor campaigning to feature Arrow'd Guy then. The fact that that editor didn't get what he wanted does not mean that article has been delayed. It's coming exactly on time: When consensus favours it. I.e., this week. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 13:37, 5 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::What I meant is that, after the time of featuring what's-her-face, the idea of featuring him had been tossed around, but ultimately it was decided he was suited for a later period of time (after featuring The Ugly One, a few weeks after a few issues had been featured, etc.). Perhaps he wasn't ''delayed'' for almost a year so much as ''been taken under consideration'' for a year, if you want it in politically correct terms, but the point is that there really isn't much sense in putting off a deserving article any longer than it already has. I'm sorry if I came off as sour, Heimstern, but I feel that this article is in dire need of featuring and shouldn't be denied it merely because another TGS-related article had been featured over two months previously. {{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 18:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::::So far, no one seems to have seriously objected to featuring it this week, despite the relatively short gap between this and the last TGS, so I think we're fine. '''I'm''' certainly not going to, since I think TGS is one of the most awesomest things on the site and always like to see more articles about it get featured. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:28, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::::<s>Does anyone oppose to [[French Fries]]? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 15:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)</s>
:::::::::::::::Well I think we should change this one to next week, and do monosodium this week, so we can better space out the articles. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 23:39, 2 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 47]] (Nov 16-22)===
This week, it's time for a cop-out that was responsible for more confusion than almost any toon before it: [[Sbemailiarized!]]{{User:That_game_dude386/sig}} 14:24, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:While an interesting article, I think it'd be more suitable for April Fools Day, since it was the basis for 2009's [[April Fool 09|April Fool joke]]. I think we'd need to mention that in the writeup, and that that'd look kind of out-of-place right before Thanksgiving. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 14:43, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::What about one of last week's suggestions: [[Monosodium Dreams]]. The [[Corpy NT6]] would work too... {{User:LePorello/sig}} 15:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:::[[The movie theater]]? anyone... {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 15:58, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
::::Monosodium Dreams looks fine to me. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 17:07, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Sure, I'm game for The Cheat's new computer. But please, let's wait until it's below ten articles in the list before we put up any more in the future, can we? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 17:56, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Since it's Thanksgiving week, I suggest the we feature original Thanksgiving toon.... [[Some Stupid Turkey]]! {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 22:40, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
:It's historic, but it's a bit short; I'm not sure we could get a decent writeup out of it. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 23:30, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
::Here is a writeup I made for this week's featured article:

[[Image:stupidturkey.PNG|left|180px|Some Stupid Turkey]]
'''[[Some Stupid Turkey]]''' is [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]]'s first [[Thanksgiving]] toon that was released on Tuesday, November 27, 2001. [[Strong Bad]] starts this toon with him dressed as a turkey, and begins to sing a Thanksgiving song about a turkey. The song ends with a few of the main characters singing "Go and suck your thumb". [[Homestar Runner]] then says to let them go and partake of their wonderous feast, only to find that it was eaten by [[The King of Town]]. '''[[Some Stupid Turkey|(more...)]]'''

::I hope this helps. Also, if this is used, replace the Image placement with a Featured Article template. I didn't use that, as this is not a featured article yet. {{User:That'sBupkis/sig}} 00:07, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
:::What about [[Twenty THANXty Six]]? I have proposed this for four reasons: 1) Some Stupid Turkey is a tad short, whereas 2008's Thanksgiving toon is a bit longer; 2) It's been a long time since we've done ''anything'' related to [[20X6]]; 3) I think we need to do a toon ''not'' from 2001 for once; and 4) We usually do Thanksgiving toons from the previous year (i.e., 2005's [[Fall Float Parade]] in 2006, 2006's [[Let Us Give Tanks!]] in 2007, etc.). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 03:09, 17 September 2009 (UTC)
::::I should point out that the only reason that we've done the previous year's toon for Thanksgiving is only because they have become a regular feature in the last few years. Having said that, though, I have to agree that Some Stupid Turkey is too short, even with the write up, to feature. There's not a whole lot in the [[:Category:Thanksgiving|T'giving category]]; the only other ones that haven't been featured are [[Happy T!]] and [[Limozeen Thanksgiving E-cards]]. [[Happy T!]] is also too short, but if we don't do [[Twenty THANXty Six]], the E-cards might be interesting. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 04:31, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::Well, if they keep adding more T'giving toons, maybe we won't have to worry about running out of T'giving articles. Maybe the E-cards could be shown next week? [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:18, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::I don't think we should have two Thanksgiving-themed FAs, especially since we don't have an inexhaustible supply of them. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:39, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::Well, we did have two T'giving-themed FAs last year (the [[colonization]] email and [[Toikey TV]]), so I don't know. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 19:50, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::In retrospect, I don't think that was a good idea and that we should have saved one of those for later. Too late now, but I think we'd best not repeat it this year. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 03:53, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::Okay, then we won't. It just seemed like a good idea at the time. Anyway, in keeping with how T'giving toons have been articled in the past, I think we should do [[Twenty THANXty Six]] this year. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 05:10, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::I think that's best, too. There's not a lot of Thanksgiving articles, and this one would clearly make a fine writeup. Stupid Turkey could work in a pinch, like, if we run out of T-giving toons sometime (which we could if TBC take the holiday off a few times), but for now I think we should stick with something more substantial. {{User:Heimstern Läufer/sig}} 05:16, 23 September 2009 (UTC)
:::::::::::Yeah, SST can wait. I amm quite partial to <s>Horpy Tor!</s> Happy T!, but I am not really sure about the substance. It really Isn't FA material, because there isn't much to be said! Limozeen or THANKSty would work, but THANKSty could be a bit too soon. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
::::::::::::Actually, it would be carrying on the "tradition" of having the previous year's T'giving toon be articled (i.e., 2005's T'giving toon in 2006, 2006's in 2007 and 2007's in 2008). [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 02:44, 25 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 49]] (Nov 30-Dec 6)===
For this week, let's do one that seems to have gotten a lot of attention: [[The Movie Theater]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:18, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well it does have a good intro and a decent amount of appearances, so it sounds good, but for reasons untold, can simone produce a write up for me? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:25, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
[[File:The movies.png|left|180px|The movie theater]]
'''[[The movie theater]]''' is where movies are watched, sometimes by force. [[Homestar Runner]] and [[Pom Pom]] brought [[Coach Z]] here to watch a film about the word "job" in the toon [[A Jorb Well Done]]. Along with that, the theater has also shown films such as Women's Penitentiary Bakesale Nightmare, Fists of Knuckles 1-24, Axe Gun: Legends of the Brain Outener, and Pom Pom's Indie film [[City (comma) State]]. As revealed in [[rated]], It is one of the few theaters that show triple R-rated movies. The theater is featured prominently in the email [[the movies]], where it is revealed that [[Senor Cardgage]] has a job as the ticket-taker. '''[[The movie theater|(more)]]'''

Here's my write-up. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 18:42, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well that works for me! {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 18:49, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
::I support this article, but as a side note, it's not necessary to do the write up this far in advance. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 18:55, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

:::::[[homestarrunner.com]] could work as a website's 10th anniversary FA. I think we should do it only on December 6, and maybe have special decorations on the "This week's/today's featured article." {{User:Mr_Eyeball}}
::::::Yeah, that sounds great, especially seeing as it is the website's 10th Birthday, and not the body of work's. How would we do it to where it is only 1 day? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 02:32, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

For this week, we should do another [[Cheat Commandos]] character. I'm thinking [[Silent Rip]]. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 16:44, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
I myself was thinking that the [[Taranchula Black Metal Detector]] would work. {{User:The Wheelchair/sig}} 00:09, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
:First off, I think we are getting WAY too far ahead of ourselves, and second, any particular reason why? {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:07, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
:Well, it looks like both articles are good, but we haven't done anything Cheat Commandos since I joined the wiki (far as I know) and we did Words I probably said like 2 weeks ago. Silent Rip works for me. {{User:Espemon333/sig}} 01:11, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 51]] (Dec 14-20)===
It's [[Decemberween]] again! It's here, it's here! The week before is a minor article. This would be a good time to take care of the only remaining larger piece of [[Decemberween In July]], [[Decemberween Sweet Cuppin' Cakes]]. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
:That would work, but I think we should do [[Peanuts]]. {{User:Movie magic man/sig}} 02:31, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
::What about [[A Holiday Greeting]]? Although [[Peanuts]] would be good, too, since it's been a bit more expanded and would probably make good article fodder. [[User:MHarrington|MHarrington]] 18:41, 13 October 2009 (UTC)

===[[HRWiki:Featured article for 2009, week 52]] (Dec 21-27)===
And in time for Decemberween, why don't we feature a toon that has been overlooked, [[A Decemberween Pageant]]. I think that is the last of the "older" D'ween toons that hasn't been featured, and it also provides a lot of the mythology of this holiday 55 days after Halloween. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:39, 12 October 2009 (UTC)

'''Free Country, USA''' (also spelled '''Free Country USA''' and '''FCUSA'''), is where the [[Homestar Runner universe]] is centered. All of the [[:Category:Main Characters|main characters]] live, work, and play here.

==Geographical Features and Locations==
[[Image:The Empty Field Of Green.png|thumb|The thriving hub that is Free Country, USA]]

Free Country, USA features a verdant [[The Field|field]] that typically serves as a central link between the various features of the landscape. At the center of the field itself is [[The Stick]], which functions as a landmark and a meeting place for [[Strong Bad]] and whomever he chooses to meet there. The edge of the field is lined with what appear to be trees. They represent the edge of Free Country. Probably also somewhere in or near the field is a stream with a picturesque [[The Stone Bridge|stone bridge]]. [[Date Nite|Once]], Strong Bad and [[Homestar Runner]] rocketed their [[USS Flirtini|cardboard submarine]] backwards along this stream, ending up in a large, open body of water. This may or may not be [[The Pond|the pond]] Strong Bad and [[Coach Z]] have been seen fishing in, or the sea; [[Marzipan]] once [[Homestar Presents: Presents|mentioned]] a location she referred to as "the wharfs", featuring crab traps and trapped baby seals. Rounding out the natural features are mountains (usually seen only from a distance). The foothills of these mountains are likely located in the nearby [[Spooky Woods|woods]], as they contain at least one [[cliff]]. There is also one "hot spot", [[Carrot and Kazoo Hill]].

Specific locations in Free Country are treated with a certain ambiguity. Somewhere at the edge of The Field is the [[The Athletic Field|Athletic Field]]; logically, [[Coach Z's locker room]] is near the Athletic Field. The kickball field seen in [[Kick-a-Ball]] is probably near or in the athletic field due to the scoreboard there. Somewhere near the Athletic Field is [[Bubs' Concession Stand]]. Other locations include a building containing a [[The Classroom|classroom]], used for multiple purposes by most of the characters, [[the Office]] where many of the characters work, and [[Marshmallow's Last Stand (place)|Marshmallow's Last Stand]], a once-popular haunt for Homestar.

The toon [[Summer Short Shorts]] features a sequence with [[Pom Pom]] that reveals that Bubs' Concession Stand, as well as a dense forest, is very near [[Strong Badia]]. A similar forest can be seen in [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon]]. However, the Pom Pom short depicts the forest and Bubs' with Strong Badia set in between them, whereas Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon shows Bubs' on the edge of the forest with no Strong Badia to be seen. This forest may or may not be the [[Spooky Woods]] that is usually seen at night in Halloween-themed episodes.

''[[Homestar Ruiner]]'' and [[Baddest Of The Bands]] feature a map of Free Country, USA, but eschews any sense of proper geography, in favor of allowing the player to move the various landmarks around the landscape to their liking. In [[Strong Badia the Free]], the [[King of Town]] eats Strong Bad's map, forcing him to write the names of locations in the spaces on the board for an old Maps and Minions game that was lying around in Strong Badia (In this game, locations are placed on the map by the game rather than by the player, but as Strong Bad is simply writing the names of locations on a board game, this is still not a proper map of Free Country, USA). Coincidentally, the King of Town was using his own copy of Maps and Minions Deluxe to coordinate his own forces, though his map was more advanced than Strong Bad's.

===Characters' Homes===

As with Free Country's locations, the homes of different characters do not exist in rigidly established locations. With the exception of Coach Z's locker room and [[The Cheat|The Cheat's]] home (which is also [[The King of Town]]'s grill and therefore always near [[The King of Town's castle]]), none of the characters' homes have clear a geographical relation to each other. This ambiguity carries over into [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]], in which Strong Bad adds locations to his map at his (or more accurately, the player's) own discretion.

Some clues exist concerning this, however. In [[Marzipan's Answering Machine Version 9.2]], Strong Bad (as Cableman Jorge) asks Marzipan to buy a "hundred-foot spool of coaxial cable" in an attempt to get free cable service; this would imply the two houses are rather close to each other. In [[The King of Town DVD Commentary]], Strong Bad claims that The King of Town does not live in the castle, but in a "run down and creepy" "two bedroom job... next door" to him, although this was probably slanderous. Also, the similar designs of the exteriors of Marzipan's and Homestar's houses may be a hint that they were built from the same blueprints, as houses within a development often are. In the email [[unnatural]], a gigantic [[Bubs]] silhouette is seen walking from a silhouette of Strong Badia to The King of Town's castle, making it in several steps. This suggests that the castle is actually very close to Strong Badia.

==Flora and Fauna==

The flora of the land is somewhat sparse. Most of Free Country's ground is covered in evenly cut grass and long rows of large green bushes. Other types of shrubs and bushes make appearances from time to time; some bushes have been known to have [[Senor Cardgage]] inexplicably emerge from them. Though trees are seldom seen in Free Country, they are usually presented as being [[Wikipedia:deciduous|deciduous]], evidenced by the barren branches seen during Free Country's autumn. Occasionally [[Wikipedia:conifer|evergreen]] trees have been shown (usually around [[Decemberween]]). Flowers are incredibly rare and have only been seen in a couple of cartoons.

Fauna is in even shorter supply. Save for the [[Sea Creatures#Fish|fish]] in the pond, a few [[Bugs|crickets]], [[bees]], a number of bats, at least one [[Fat Bluebird|bird]] (others have been heard), [[The Bug|fly]] (some were seen at other places, including the trash can in [[invisibility]]), and [[Gavin|cockroach]], plus the characters themselves, no other animal life has yet been seen in Free Country, USA.

[[The King of Town]] at one point had [[The King of Town's Sheep|sheep]]. Whether he still owns them or ate them all is open to debate. It was at one time rumored that a [[Multi-Function Dragon|dragon]] menaced the castle, but even if he really existed, a story line shows it being slain.

==Politics==
[[Image:The KoTs Castle Grand.PNG|thumb|150px|The King of Town's Castle]]
Free Country appears at first glance to be a [[Wikipedia:monarchy|monarchy]] since it is nominally ruled by [[The King of Town]]. However, since Free Country is a [[Wikipedia:municipality|municipality]] and not a kingdom, the King of Town would technically be a [[Wikipedia:lord|lord]]. However, the self-conferred sovereign's reign is not widely recognized by the populace, so Free Country could be considered to be in a state of [[Wikipedia:Anarchy|anarchy]], where there is no accepted centralized government but the members of the community co-exist with loosely established rules that maintain order.

To this end, Free Country can muster a meager police force consisting of [[Homestar Runner]], [[Pom Pom]], [[Coach Z]], and [[Bubs]] to ensure that anyone engaged in [[Crimes committed by Strong Bad|criminal behavior]] (to date, only [[Strong Bad]] and [[The Cheat]]) are [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon|placed firmly]] in [[jail]] (a large cardboard box). Since there is no need for an army (nor a government to stand one up), Free Country has no official military. It is, however, home to the [[Homestarmy]], a meager militia that includes a [[Frank Bennedetto|popcorn machine]] and is led by Homestar Runner. The Homestarmy once attempted to conquer Strong Badia (see below), but appears to represent no cohesive political movement (other than expressing discontent stemming from "playing second fiddle to a two-bit [[wrestleman]] and his yellow dog"). The King of Town has occasionally expressed an intention to exercise actual power, going so far as to mobilize [[The Municipality|his own military force]] headed up by [[The Poopsmith]], as seen in [[disconnected]].

Besides the King's castle (which would be the seat of government if the King's rule had any legitimacy), there is a different building containing a [[smoky office]] which has been used for various purposes, including a [[The Interview|newsroom]], [[Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon|police station]], and a set for the ''[[Dangeresque (film series)|Dangeresque]]'' films.

The name and the currency used imply that this town is in the United States of America, and in [[trading cards]] Strong Bad makes reference to himself "here in the states" when addressing a Canadian writer. Yet any further details, regarding what state or town "Free Country" is in is never mentioned. They may have to pay taxes, however, as evidenced by [[A Decemberween Pageant]] and [[Arcade Game]].

===Strong Badia===
[[Image:Strongbadia.png|thumb|150px|Strong Badia]]
[[Wikipedia:Enclave|Within Free Country's borders]], the territory of [[Strong Badia]] exists as an autonomous enclave. Strong Badia has a [[flag day|flag]], a [[Strong Badia National Anthem|national anthem]], and has even had to [[The Battle of Strong Badia|defend its autonomy]] from [[Homestarmy|outside aggression]], as seen in [[army]]. Although Strong Bad said that Strong Badia doesn't have/need an army, the local gang, [[On Point Kings]], have transformed from being a simple group of guys hanging around to a band of shady <strike> missionaries</strike> mercenaries that specialize in black ops, brown ops, and the occasional beige op. Whether or not Strong Badia is a "real" country is open to debate, since the permanent population of Strong Badia is a [[tire]] and it's only the size of a backyard. A few email senders seem to call Free Country by this name, presumably because the characters talk about Strong Badia more often than Free Country. However, Strong Bad specifically addressed this issue in [[keep cool]], limiting the official borders of Strong Badia to the empty lot.

==Other Territories==

Mentioned from time to time (and seen only via the depicted map) are other territories outside Free Country. If the circuitous path of Homestar's [[In Search of the Yello Dello|journey]] to [[Potamia]] for [[The Yello Dello]] is to be believed, Free Country borders the territory of [[Far Off Lands]]. Very little, if anything, is known about these territories or their relation to Free Country, although [[Prance]] is known to make at least one [[Hairstyle Runner|Homestar Runner-related product]].

According to the original Characters page and [[Marshmallow's Last Stand]], [[The Brothers Strong]] come from a land called Parts Unknown.

Strong Bad claims to have a secret family (surnamed Mudgeman) in a community named Broiter Grove. If there is any shred of truth to this supposition, it can be assumed this community is near Free Country, USA, as Strong Bad is clearly without a working car.

==Economics==

The economics of Free Country are as ambiguous as the locations and politics of the territory. The local currency is [[Wikipedia:Federal_Reserve_notes|U.S. dollars]], although this official currency is augmented by a strong barter system that allows trade of goods and services (further suggesting that the government has no central banking power); most local commerce occurs at [[Bubs' Concession Stand]]. Pencil shavings have been accepted by [[Bubs]] at least twice, in [[lackey]] and [[secret identity]]. Also, in a Easter Egg in [[colonization]], Homestar declares that 'Dirty [[Diapers]]' were to no longer be considered legal tender. In the email [[flag day]] a coin is visible that resembles a quarter. It is the same color, appears to be the same size, and has a face and words on both sides of it as well as words on the top and bottom of the coin. The date on it would be on the wrong side, though. The face on this coin is Strong Bad's. This implies that it is Strong Badian money, which implies Strong Badia is its own country. Strong Bad could be making this coin up because it has some of the words of the song he is currently singing printed on it. There was also a coin with a head of [[Trogdor]] on one side and his tail on another, seen in [[Kick-a-Ball]]. This somewhat suggests that Trogdor has his own type of currency, or the coin was made only for sporting events like kickball. It seems that there is some crabbing industry, as there are crab traps at the wharf (which often claim baby seals), even though this supposed wharf has never been seen, and its existence is doubted by Strong Bad in [[Homestar Presents: Presents]].

Bubs' Concession Stand is known to accept these forms of currency:
*Cash
*Money
*Cash Money
*Pencil Shavings (added to the sign by the Cheat)
*[[Quesos]] (Strong Badian currency)
*First Born Children
*Arms/Legs
[[Image:Bubs Last Stand.PNG|thumb|150px|Bubs' Concession Stand]]

It is also unclear as to how rent or mortgages on the houses owned by Free Country residents is paid. [[Strong Bad]] mentions in [[colonization]] that he had to give [[Bubs]] his first and last month's rent deposits, but other than that, no other characters have mentioned how or when they pay rent.
===Employment===
:''Main article: [[Occupations]]''
Bubs works at his stand as a general fix-it man. He has also been seen as a mechanical worker at [[The Office]], and as a bartender at [[Club Technochocolate]]. [[Homestar Runner|Homestar]], [[Strong Bad]], [[The Cheat]], [[Strong Sad]], [[Coach Z]], and [[Pom Pom]] work in some kind of an office, at least occasionally. Homestar also hosts [[The Show]]. [[Strong Bad]], in addition, had a "part, part, part, part, very part time job" as a giant [[Tragic Clown Dog]] mascot at [[Bubs' Concession Stand]] in [[part-time job]]. He quit that job, however, when he realized that he needed to rush back to Marzipan's house to finish his email before the [[Lappy 486|Lappy]] lost its battery charge, though it seems he was re-hired for the job in [[On Break]]. [[Strong Mad]] appears to work as a bouncer at [[Club Technochocolate]]. [[Coach Z]] is presumably some kind of a coach and a gym class teacher; he has also been seen working as a custodian at the office and as a [[Drive-Thru Whale|mascot]] for [[Blubb-O's]] restaurant. [[The King of Town]] employs [[The Poopsmith]] for reasons he does not care to disclose as well as a [[The Little Chef Guy|chef]], a [[The Blacksmith|blacksmith]], a [[The Hornblower|hornblower]], a [[The Cleric|cleric]], and a [[The Knight|knight]]. Marzipan, The Cheat, and Strong Mad are in a band named [[Cool Tapes]], which tours and sells "steven inches" for [[pi]] dollars. Marzipan additionally runs a kindergarten class which includes Homestar, [[Homsar]] and [[Strong Mad]]. [[Senor Cardgage]] has had several shady jobs, such as a mortgage seller, owner of an online e-niversity, operator of Shady Daycares, and lastly, with a somewhat stable job as an usher at the local [[The Movie Theater|theater]]. There is likely a Board of Health in FCUSA, as evidenced in [[Donut Unto Others]], where Strong Bad works as a health inspector. It has not been revealed whether the remaining characters have jobs.

==Free Country Through Time==

In addition to its current, contemporary depiction, Free Country has been shown in the past and possibly in the future.
[[Image:1936field.png|thumb|150px|Old-Timey Free Country]]
===Old-Timey Free Country===

In the [[Old-Timey|1930s]], Free Country was characterized by dirt roads, picket fences, carnival tents, antiquated Industrial Revolution-era factories, and even a [[Cholera Acres Cemetary|graveyard]], only the latter of which may have survived the passage of time. As with the rest of the USA during this time period, Free Country was [[Wikipedia:Great Depression|economically depressed]], with the population being forced to subsist on dry meal, water soup, and parsnips. Commerce, such as it was, was located at a [[Parsnip Depot|dilapidated depot]].

There was a growing, through sponsorship funds, radio station (name still unknown) which had a drama - "The Fish Was Delish Progrum", in which Sir Strong Bad already was building up his showman career.

And, though there is some debate as to whether or not Free Country was still under [[Wikipedia:Prohibition|Prohibition]] during this time period, some residents enjoyed the occasional nip of [[Wikipedia:Alcoholic beverage|hooch]] regardless.

[[Image:Freepetrydishusa.PNG|thumb|right|150px|Home to a bunch of plucky parameciums]]

===Free Petry Dish USA===
In the email [[highschool]], Strong Bad claims that the entirety of Free Country, USA was, in the past, merely on a petri dish, with all its inhabitants being single-cell organisms. However, considering his purported "unphotographic memory", it's unlikely that such a place ever truly existed.
[[Image:planetk.png|thumb|150px|20X6 Free Country]]

===Futuristic Free Country?===

In the futuristic year [[20X6]], Free Country may or may not be one and the same as [[Planet K]], which looks much like the current Free Country. If so, Free Country will grow to feature significantly more architecture to the extent of having a full city (a quality the territory currently lacks). Nothing is yet known about the economic or political state of this ultramodern version of Free Country, though there is a significantly higher frequency of fights and challenges faced by its residents, which include various robots. They appear to be located in the same region, however, as Strong Bad buries a time capsule that is later discovered by Stinkoman.

==Estimated Real-World Location==

Viewers of Homestar Runner have variously speculated about the "real" location of Free Country, USA, though it is generally assumed [[The Brothers Chaps]] prefer to leave its location undetermined.

Each time the world is seen from space, the shape of the United States is easily recognizable. The characters speak with American accents, type with American spelling, celebrate many American [[holidays]], and make references to elements of American culture (such as its [[presidents]]). Most obvious is the fact that "USA" is in the name. On a side note, America is widely known as a "free country." Therefore, it seems safe to conclude that Free Country, USA is somewhere in America. This may be the closest one can come to determining a location for Free Country, USA, as many of the following observations are contradictory to one another.

*The scene in the [[Theme Song Video]] where Homestar runs around the planet and a star appears on a United States map would lead one to believe it's possible that Free Country is somewhere in northern Nebraska.
*In the email [[radio]], the [[Crazy Go Nuts University|CGNU]] radio station's call letters are given as [[Radio Stations and Shows|WSBD]], as are "Numbitty 902's" WA3D FM. Real-world radio designations would place Free Country east of the Mississippi river, although there are some historical [http://www.oldradio.com/archives/general/kwtrivia.htm exceptions].
*Free Country is likely in a northern latitude or high altitude given the snowy weather around [[Decemberween]].
*In the email [[anything]], Homestar refers to his two liter bottle of [[Mountain Dew]] as "soda", which is a term more used in the northeast and in the west. In parts of the Upper Midwest it is frequently called "pop".
*The Brothers Chaps themselves live in Atlanta, Georgia, making it possible that Free Country is located in the Southeast.
*In [[Homestar Presents: Presents]], Marzipan references baby seals and crab traps at the wharf, suggesting that Free Country is near the ocean, or at least a salt-water body.
**This might just show that there is a large lake nearby.
**This might just show that they import seals and crabs and trap them at a place called "the wharf."
*In [[Homestar vs. Other Little Girl]], Homestar claims he does ''not'' live in Texas.
*In the end of [[Where the Crap Are We?]], Homestar thinks he and Strong Bad are in Massachusetts, which would indicate that they are not from there.
*In [[Weclome Back]], [[Cool Tapes]] did a midwest tour, indicating that they may be from around there.
*In [[colonization]], [[Strong Bad]] and [[Bubs]] share some "cold Hardee's he had lying around", which implies that Free Country may be in the Eastern/Midwestern part of the USA (In the Western part of the US, "Hardee's" is called "Carl's Jr.").
*In the email [[keep cool]], the temperature was 98ºF, but in all the Decemberween episodes, there is snow, suggesting that Free Country is in a state where the climate varies greatly.
*In the email [[retirement]], [[Strong Bad]] tells the audience to "feast their Dust Bowl-ravaged eyes" on his show. This suggests that they might be in the Great Plains area.
*In [[Main Page 11]], Downloads shows a weather map of the eastern region of the United States, suggesting that Free Country, USA is in the eastern half of the USA.
*In [[Baddest Of The Bands]] when sending in his album cover to [[Limozeen]], [[Strong Bad]] wrote down "Staten Island...10301..." this is [[Limozeen]]'s address, as on [[baddestofthebands.com]] they were said to leave their "Staten Island home base" for the Battle Royale Of The Bands (which they didn't really leave.) This could imply that Free Country USA isn't near Staten Island, since Strong Bad is mailing the letter. Though this may not be the case.
*In [[8-Bit Is Enough]], the camera zooms out to what looks like the map from the [[Theme Song Video]], and a large explosion resonates from the center of the map, similar to the star in the Theme Song Video.
*In [[On Break]], Homestar sings to the [[Crazy Go Nuts University|CGNU]] freshmen that they must share a bathroom with a student from Alabama. This would indicate that Free Country is not in Alabama, assuming that CGNU is in Free Country.
