== Alt versions for podcast ==
On the DVD version of [[dragon]], the homsar easter egg is automatically enabled. They also did this on the new podcast version of the email. So, is there some place that we can note this on the page for that email? Should we create new an entirely new section for Podcast version on this page and all sbemails??? --[[User:Duke33|Duke33]] 17:25, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
: Probably, yeah. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 20:00, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

== Haha... MINDREADERS! ==

I was thinking about H*R toons on iPods ''THIS MORNING''...!

== RSS Feed ==
Now all they need is an RSS feed so you can put this right in iTunes as a podcast and download it straight to the iPod.. --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 18:25, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
:Maybe a fan can create one. Y'know, like [http://interglacial.com/rss/homestar.html this one]. And no, I didn't mean that I would create one, either.—[[User:StrongstarRunbad|S*R]] 19:08, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
:I could certainly do it. I would just assume this would be something we'd want the Brothers Chaps to do themselves. In any case, I'll break out Notepad and have something up in a bit. :) --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 20:11, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

== Podstar links ==

I added a new interwiki-style link to our repertoire. To link to one of the podstar.homestarrunner.com files, simply preface it with "Podstar:" (for example: [[Podstar:sb_email_japanese_cartoon.m4v]]). — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 19:58, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

== Picture? ==

== Quality ==

Has anybody noticed that the M4V videos have a much higher sound quality than the Flash files? Might seem a bit unfair for the "normal Flashers" at first, but if someone was to import the Flash file (which, if possible, would give us a load of vectors and so a nearly unlimited possibility of resizing) and mix its video track with the audio track of the M4V video, they could actually get megalomanic resolutions and a sound quality that beats the Flash file on the site. Anybody up to the task to make a proof-of-concept, HDTV-compatible Strong Bad Email? As long as it stays a non-redistributed proof-of-concept, it shouldn't be illegal. <nowiki>~~</nowiki>[[User:RavuAlHemio|Ravu]] 21:20, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
:Seems like a bit of a waste of time to me, but whatever. Anyway, in regard to your question: from what i've seen, it may not be as, ahem, "simple", as that. Most Flash decompiling programs manage to bugger up tweens etc as well as fonts. Then, on top of this, you usually need to fiddle with the .fla file you get at the end to get it to match up with the original .swf as mask layers etc often separate. Basically, it'd be some hassle.

Actually.. also its higher sound quality on the DVD's too so you could always just buy the dvds... [[User:24.185.119.106|24.185.119.106]] 01:12, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
:Yes, you should buy the DVDs, because it supports TBC. By the way, I wouldn't spend any time on it, because it ''would'' end up being illegal since anything worth doing eventually ends up distributed. Even if it were legal, this talk page is not the place to solicit volunteers to work on it. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 03:45, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
::Never wished to argue with that. Anyways, I was actually thinking about buying myself the Overkill Combo, but since it seems minors can't have credit cards over here in Austria, I'll have to put that off for the next few years (or ask somebody with a credit card). <nowiki>~~</nowiki>[[User:RavuAlHemio|Ravu]] 06:08, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

== Link on Site ==

Is there a link to this page on the actual site besides the recently updated on the homepages? Like in downloads or something? That's where it should be.--[[User:Martin925|Martin925]] 22:27, 30 January 2006 (UTC)
*I noticed that too. I guess the answer is still no. --[[User:71.243.152.233|71.243.152.233]] 03:09, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

== MP4's ==

Hey, do you guys think there is any chance that they would release them on MP4 format so we (i) can watch them on Our (my) PlayStation Portable (PSP) System? either that, or is there some sort of Software or something that i could download so i could convert the M4V Files to MP4's?

-COLA

Since theyve done m4p's they'll probablyn eventually do ones for the PSP. As for converting.. i have no clue lol. [[User:24.185.119.106|24.185.119.106]] 01:14, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

yes they work on the psp- [[HRFWiki:User:Freezestar|Freezestar]]

No, they dont. i checked it out, i even upgraded my Bloody psp, didnt work, and all my movies that i had on it couldnt be played. great job, Sony.

-COLA

They don't work on the PSP. The videos available from the Podstar Runner page are encoded using H.264, and not MPEG-4. While giving it a better file size and reasonable video quality, it makes it incompatible with the PSP. --[[User:TuqueeLukee|Tuquee]] 06:55, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

Let me know how that works for you, I'm not sure exactly what a PSP expects. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 16:10, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Strange. It works on mine. PSP-1001 on the side. I update the PSP all the way and put it in the Video folder ([root folder]:\VIDEO folder). And then i just rename the extension to mp4 and throw it into the VIDEO folder. That's what I do. And they work. --[[User:68.145.103.189|68.145.103.189]] 03:01, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

:When that post was written, PSP firmware 2.80 (or 2.81, I forget which) hadn't been released. That was the firmware that added .m4v support (and you don't need to rename them either). --{{User:Venusy/Sig}} 09:16, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

== WMP? ==

do these files play on windows media player? (Or are they convertable to VuGo format?)--{{User:Benol/sig}} 01:09, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

:: They are in H.264 video with AAC audio. I think there are codecs you can get for those for WMP. [[User:Person Man|Person Man]] 02:01, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

== Strong Sad's iPod? I think not. ==

That is not Strong Sad's iPod in the background, as stated on the wiki. It appears to be at least a 4G iPod, but its shape (especially the screen) is closer to that of the 5G iPod. Look at it--it has the gray clickwheel characteristic of 4G+ iPods. Strong Sad's is first- or second-generation. -[[User:Bruce|Bruce]]

:It doesn't look exactly like Strong Sad's iPod from the picture, but it is blurry, so details might not have been put in. Other times that this happens is when you see a zoomed-out picture of the Compy, and you cannot see the dial. Lets just see what others put in as well and then we will make final decisions. -[[User:Martin925|Martin925]] 04:52, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

::Whoops. Didn't sign that last message--fixed. Anyway, here's the thing. The blur would make it hard to decide, except for the scroll-wheel. Notice it's gray. Strong Sad's iPod, as seen so far, has had a white scroll-wheel. The blur filter may obscure details, but it's not going to change the colors of anything. -[[User:Bruce|Bruce]] 05:04, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

:::The width of the screen appears to be wider than Strong Sad's iPod, but quite like a video iPod.

::::The enlarged screen size and trademarked click wheel give it away that this iPod was designed to be a 5G iPod. However, note the headphone jack is plugged into the middle of the top of the iPod. That characteristic is not true with 5G iPods, which have the jack on the far right of the top. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 13:35, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

:::::Well, let's think about this for a minute. Who else in the Brothers Strong house (or anywhere else in FCUSA for that matter) owns an iPod? Mabye Strong Sad upgraded to a newer version or something. I agree, it's not the same one that we've seen before, but no one else has an iPod, so in my opinion, it ''has'' to be Strong Sad's. {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 13:50, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

::::::I concur. Is this already noted on the item's article, or have we yet to add it? — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 15:31, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

::::::I thought the same exact thing as Has Matt? but I forgot to mention it. Who else would have an ipod? I think so far its Strong Sads, unless maybe in the future it is revealed that maybe Strong Bad got one or something.--[[User:Martin925|Martin925]] 21:55, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

:::::::Strong Bad with an iPod? Strong Bad thinks that flashlights are "the future of technology". {{User:Has Matt?/sig}} 23:25, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

:::::::: Maybe the Cheat bought an iPod... I mean, we already know he likes Apple :P

== Original Name ==

Since they changed the name from Strong Bad video podcasts, I think we should mention it in trivia.--[[User:Martin925|Martin925]] 22:00, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
:So... mention it. :) I'd do it but I haven't kept up with this page closely enough to know for sure what you're talking about. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:22, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

==What do I have to do?==
What do I have to do to make Strong Bad pop up? I says wait a second after the email, what email it doesn't play any email. {{User:Bassium!/sig}}

:Please be more specific. After every Strong Bad Email featured, a short clip of Strong Bad should appear. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 23:46, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Oh, so you have to download the emails to watch the clips and stuff, well in that case nevermind. {{User:Bassium!/sig}}

== PSP...rar ==

I could help with the PSP and iPod video conversion

:I don't believe that creating PSP files for distribution would fall under [[Wikipedia:Fair use|fair use]] laws. Thanks for offering, though. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 15:44, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

::While distribution of alternate versions would be illegal, converting it yourself to another format and playing it on your PSP would be considered fair use. Since the videos don't have DRM, they are not covered by the DMCA and the fair use exception can apply.
:::Creating a instructions to convert or a program that will do the converting would be fine (assuming you don't charge for it or anything). --[[User:SirNuke|SirNuke]] 01:22, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

::::This may be true, but ''I'' don't believe it falls under fair use. Just me. {{User:Bluebry muffin/sig}} 19:11, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

== Requires Quicktime? ==

Below external links it says that either iTunes or Quicktime is required to play these, but I must disagree. All that's needed is a player that can support the MOV file format, H264 decoding, and AAC decoding. The videos all play back perfectly on my computer without any sort of Apple "adware" installed. And it says that Quicktime version 6.0 is required, but I don't think that 6.0 can play H264 video. --[[User:Taku42|Taku42]] 21:07, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

:It can play H263, however. As for other programs, Quicktime and iTunes are the only two official programs that fully support and write .mov format. If you know of another that's as good as either of these, however, please say so. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 21:11, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

::[[Wikipedia:MPlayer|MPlayer]] (the almighty) has no problems. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 05:26, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

::The VideoLan Client ([http://www.videolan.org/vlc/]) works really well. Which is a bit odd since VLC often has trouble with newer Quicktime files.--[[User:SirNuke|SirNuke]] 01:06, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

They may mean Quicktime 7, which I believe is the minimum requirement for iTMS videos.

Anonymous.

Also, video is only supported in iTunes 6.0 and up, podcasts from version 4.9. So regarding either capability, the iTunes version in the article is incorrect. [[User:68.239.131.197|68.239.131.197]] 01:24, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

== Brothers Chaps helped! wooh ==

I got a email, from them after i emailed them.

<blockquote>Quicktime Pro can convert a .m4v file to an .mp4 file or any other format for that matter. 
Just open the file up in Quicktime and choose Export to put it in whatever format you need, 
this way you shouldn't have a problem getting it onto you PSP.

So...Wooh! --[[User:Jetamoo|Coach J]] 18:53, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

The psp needs a thumbnail file too so just converting it to mp4 won't work (I've tried). [http://www.pspvideo9.com/ PSP video 9]is the easiest way, it creates a thumbnail file automatically. Get a big memory stick too, videos eat up space fast.

== RSS feed oddities ==
I removed them from the article, because the odd things in the RSS feed (copyright tag, link tag) are because TBC copied the RSS example from [http://www.podcastx.com/articles/26/1/How-To-Publish-a-Podcast-on-the-iTunes-Music-Store Apple's website]. I have emailed TBC about the tags, too. --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 00:19, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

==Descriptions==

I'm not sure if this can go anywhere on the page, but I figured I'd list the descriptions within iTunes for the episodes.

techno -- Some bozo asks about techno music. 
japanese cartoon -- Strong Bad makes up his own japanese cartoon. 
dragon -- Strong Bad starts a bad drawing revolution. 
kids book -- Strong Bad seriously defaces a children's book. 
crying -- Strong Bad seriously defaces a children's book. (whoops on their part, apparently) 
bottom 10 -- From the home office in Scotsdale, AZ... 
caffeine -- Strong Sad gets caffeinated. 
virus -- A virus wreaks havoc on the Compy. 

I wasn't exactly sure where to put this, but I figured it should at least be listed somewhere around here, so here it is. [[User:Spell4yr|Spell4yr]] 07:58, 21 February 2006 (UTC)
:lol, reading the edit history for the main page, I suppose I should have left my editorialized comments out of it, or put it separate or in italics or something. Sorry!

In computing, the prefix "kilo", for example, can mean two things - the standard 103= 1000 or the more computer-friendly 210 = 1024 (computers, working in binary, are good for working with powers of 2). Megabytes can, by extension, be 1,000,000 (1000²) bytes or 1,048,576 (1024²) bytes. Usually the binary megabytes are used for things like RAM capacity, since that will always be a power of 2, and file sizes. Decimal megabytes are often used for hard disk capacities (to make them sound bigger, since the number on the box is bigger). (Because of the confusion, SI proposed the prefix [[Wikipedia:Mebi|Mebi]], but it never really caught on.) However the filesizes quoted on the podstar page are such that 1MB = 1,024,000 bytes (1000×1024), which isn't correct either way. Most likely the computer gave the size in kB by dividing by 1024, and TBC then divided by 1000 to get MB. The only thing I know of which uses 1,024,000 megabytes is the 1.44MB floppy disk, which is 1.44×1024×1000 bytes. 
The questions are: (1) Can the above be summarised into something suitable for a fun fact? Not so long as to ramble, as the above does, but not so short as to leave out any important information. (2) In the table at the bottom of the article, should we quote (a) the filesize from the podstar page, (b) The actual size in decimal megabytes, (c) The actual size in binary megabytes or (d) separate columns for both (a) and one of (b) or (c). At the moment it is (c), which gets my vote. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 03:26, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
:There is already the goof:

:Many of the listed file sizes are inaccurate. The table below shows the correct file sizes.

:and the listing below. What do you want beyond that? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 03:28, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
::Oh, I didn't see that. Still, some explination of ''why'' they're inaccurate could be good, since that goof reads like "man, TBC are so dumb they couldn't even get the filesizes right" as opposed to "filesizes are more complicated than they look, and TBC got it wrong". {{User:Phlip/sig}} 03:33, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

== Just something I noticed...==
The description for [[different town]] in the XML feed is "How would Strong Bad make the town different?". For as long as I can remember (much earlier than March 13, 2006, anyways), the summary on the Wiki has been "How would Strong Bad make the town different?". It may just be a coincidence, but I doubt it. We know TBC have used the Wiki in the past. {{User:FireBird/sig}} 13:03, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

== This specific piece of trivia: Are you sure? ==

''When the email ends and returns to the animated iPod menu, "Homestarrunner.com" is highlighted. However, the animated menu at the beginning of the email has "Email" selected. The iPod's memory should keep the selection where it was when you left it, not move back to the top.''

I only have a 4G iPod, so it may not apply to this, but every time it finishes up a playlist or album, it goes back to the main menu and the top word (Music) is highlighted.
But you guys can go ahead and prove me wrong by doing it on your fancy-pants video iPods. I don't mind, really. --[[User:Mashi|Mashi]] 18:33, 23 July 2006 (UTC)

My iPod Video goes back to Music on the main menu when it's done playing, as well. But it remembers its position in other menus. --[[User:71.197.114.207|71.197.114.207]] 17:23, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

==Missing videos==

Now that I actually have an iPod, I'm kind of miffed that bottom 10, crying and caffeine were removed from the podcast itself on iTunes. They can still be downloaded off the server from direct linking, yes, but it won't go on my iPod in the podcast section with the rest, and I'm a stickler for organization. Any idea WHY they were removed to begin with? [[User:Evan|Evan]] 05:57, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

I'll take this, since no one seems to know the answer. Yes, you can still view a video-podcast on a 4G iPod (that supports podcasts) by viewing the podcast from the Music menu instead of the Video → Video Podcasts menu. It plays the video-podcast as a regular podcast; with only audio. I'm about 90% sure of this, since it can be done this way on a 5G iPod. — {{User:Lapper/sig}} 06:34, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

When decoded, the description of technology is "Ç,:«�" (Not including quotations) Should that be added to trivia or something? {{User:Steve/sig}} 23:23, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
:Well, the binary string is 37 bits (in a row), so it's not going to decode correctly in 7-bit or 8-bit ASCII, or any of the Unicode formats, 'cause it's not a whole number of characters. It might be worth noting that the number in binary is 106930066790 in decimal, like on [[technology#Trivia|technology]], but I think it's just too trivial. If you're curious, you can check out [[Talk:technology#Has anyone tried...|the conversation that came up over this last time]], but there's not much there. Just remember, it's important to note the difference between [[Wikipedia:Binary number|binary]], which is just a way of representing numbers, and [[Wikipedia:ASCII|ASCII]], which is one of many ways of making those numbers represent letters and symbols. It's reasonable to assume that the string of 1s and 0s is binary, but it's not ASCII. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 09:16, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

==Glitches==
Ok, I noticed a few glitches when watching some toons. for one, when watching [[theme park]], the video freezes when before the cut to Pom Pom and Bubs, but the audio keeps going. You can keep going by fast forwarding a few seconds, but it still always freezes at the same place. Also, with TGS's 6-12, they all start off somewhere in the middle of the cartoon (the same place every time), but pressing the left button brings the toon back to the beginning. However, pressing the center button and scrolling to a certain time will always snap you back to a specific point in the toon. For example, fast forwarding anywhere in TGS7 always snaps to the "dipped it in salt" line. Also, holding the right button just blacks out the toon and brings you back to the menu. I know that it's not just my iPod that does these things, seeing as my friend's does the exact same things, but does anyone else have these problems, too? {{User:Dr._Clash/sig}}

==These peoples try to fade me==
The reason I'm guessing that this was released was because the version on the CD (which I have) was not compatible with a 5G iPod (which I also have). I put the CD version on iTunes before, but it just said the video "...cannot be played on this iPod". The m4v version worked. {{User:Mee/sig}}

== Episode Artwork? ==

When I downloaded the old podcasts a while ago, they came with artwork, but the recent ones that I've downloaded don't have artwork, and the thumbnail for the video in iTunes is a picture that iTunes takes a little ways into the video (Strong Bad at his computer). Are other people experiencing this? I should note that I download the episodes from podstar.homestarrunner.com rather than through iTunes.

I checked the page, but only "from work" is available; I can't find any of the other emails on the list. Huh?
:Yep, with this incarnation of the podcast, only the latest email is available at any one time. I guess they're trying to limit how much bandwidth the whole operation takes... since that's most likely what brought it down last time. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 11:49, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

== Split? ==
Thinking aloud... would it be a good idea to split this page into [[Podstar Runner]] and [[Podstar Runner 2006]] (or some equally imaginative title)? The page is a bit crowded and confusing at the moment, with transcripts, and blocks of text, and fun facts, all with little qualifiers about whether they're talking about the new podcast or the old one (and even now, some facts talk about the old podcast in the present tense)... it would be a lot simpler to treat them as separate services, and have them on separate pages... maybe with one of those "preceeded by/succeeded by" bars like on the [[Intro]]s. After all, they're rather different... the only real thing they have in common is that they're both podcasts... 99% of the stuff we have in Fun Facts is different between the two. Thoughts? {{User:Phlip/sig}} 11:49, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
: I agree with Phlip. Two separate pages would make sense given the sustantial amount of information and lists presently combined on this one article. We've done the same to [[New Paper]] and [[The Paper]]. {{User:The Paper/sig}} 20:45, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
::That might be a good idea. Unlike say [[Punkin Stencils]], where one page can neatly contain all the info, Podstar Runner has a lot of associated information (Fun Facts, transcripts, etc.) that are different depending on the version. By splitting, that might also eliminate some of the problems with the intro, which seems bit too wordy (I know, a rare problem for this wiki, but still...)

Just put the swf files on your memory stick and navigate to them in the PSP's browser with address "file:/path-to-the-files-on-your-ms/homsar.swf" You can use FireFox to make an index page once you've copied them over - just do a quick search and replace routine to make the URLs relative.

== Weird glitch. ==

My brother's a big fan of this game. One day, long ago, we we're checking out the Continue Menu, and ALL THE LEVELS WERE THERE!!!!
My brother noticed the strange thing that happened, and swore that he didn't make all this happen. He didn't have a clue of what was going on. Then I thought, ''This is obviously a rare glitch. I didn't do anything.'' So now when I see "stinkoman level <#>!" on the
main page, I go the game and click "CONTINUE" and I check it out. Pretty cool, huh? I'm just wondering if anyone else expierenced this glitch. --[[User:oopsyoubwokeit|oopsyoubwokeit]] 20:14, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)

*8.2 (Ditto.)

*Tampo (Even if it's the first level boss. it was supposed to be easy.)
*Nebulon (If you can't beat the .2 level, you can't see/beat the boss.)

: I had this happen in the middle of the game while playing from homestarrunner.com . I was at the level 1 boss, Tampo (the giant brain). I had 2 lives left. I died. When it started over, Stinkoman fell and kept falling. And the game was over. Must've been some kind of glitch I guess.--DrPepperMD 9/24/05.
: I belive I have an answer to why this happens (not 100% sure though), I first saw/played the game on a new(er) computer and it workd fine, but when a tryed to play it on an older computer (that had an out of date flash version) there was no ground. prehaps the version of flash that was the current version when this came out supported the ground that prevented you from falling. just a though.-[[User:Anonomys|Anonomys]] 00:46, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

==Strange Storyline==

== Fanstuff bad? ==

What's wrong with the [[HRFWiki:Stinkoman 20X6 - CUSTOM LEVELS|fanstuff]] [[HRFWiki:Stinkoman_20X6_-_CHEAT_VERSION|links]]? [[User:Some HSR themed username|Some HSR themed username]] says it's "wiki policy," but I don't see anything against fanstuff in the [[HRWiki:Standards|wiki standards]]. {{User:Trogga/sig}}

:I'm pretty sure you read it in an old discussion of the page - where an admin said that no fanstuff related ''pages'' and ''fun facts'' should be made. (i.e. a guide to custom levels; a factoid on how you can do something with a cheat version) - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]'''''
::If I remember correctly it was a sysop edit summary just a few days ago, but if you really want to add it again, I'll stop reverting. {{User:Some HSR themed username/sig}} 19:00, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:Here's examples I found. These may be what you are talking about: [[Talk:Stinkoman 20X6/Archive#Add an article on custom levels.3F|here]] and [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Stinkoman_20X6_Enemies&diff=138917&oldid=138711 here]. - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]''''' 19:02, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)

We don't link to fanstuff because (1) as a knowledge base, we should only list official sources as external links, (2) we don't have any real info on fanstuff nor do we have any control of its content, and (3) if we allowed person A's fanstuff on this page, then we'd have to allow the fanstuff of persons B, C, D, E, and everyone else on all the other pages, and that is not the point of this wiki, nor should keeping up with and policing things like that be one of our chores. — [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 06:46, 17 Sep 2005 (UTC)

You're Insane, man! I liked those links! Besides, Trogga and Joshua are right! Those links were useful, Fanstuff or not! -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:The cheat version may be bad, but the custom levels are public fanstuff from multiple users, and I think they should stay. - '''''[[User:Joshua|Joshua]]'''''

Any glitches that can only be accessed with the cheat version or in custom levels should be treated like out-of-the-frame glitches in the toons - they were not intended to be seen by the public, so there's no reason to allow for them. That is, if there's something that happens because something is not specifically catered for (eg 1-Up kicking a Stafulter) it should not be mentioned here (though it could be mentioned on the [[HRFWiki:Stinkoman_20X6_-_CHEAT_VERSION#Quirks|fanstuff entry's page]]). If there is something intentional that can only be accessed this way (like the cabbage enemy was) then it should be mentioned, as a remark or as appropriate on another Stinkoman 20X6 page. Linking to the custom levels here would in my mind be the same as linking to [[HRFWiki:Other Character Email|Other Character Email]] or suchlike from the [[Strong Bad Email]] page, and would easily set a precedent for every fanstuff (or even just each category of fanstuff would be bad enough) being linked to from the H*R thing it was inspired by. {{User:phlip/sig}} 17:09, 17 Sep 2005 (UTC)

But what's the point of (fanstuff) interwiki links if we're not going to use them? {{User:Trogga/sig}}

Yeah, if we're not supposed to link to fanstuff, then, ''Oh! Why don't we'' '''blow the fanstuff link off the face of that side template thingy''' if we're "not supposed to link to fanstuff"! See? it's ridiculous!! Take ''that'', It's dot com! -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:There's a difference between "linking to the fanstuff site from this site" to "linking to a fanstuff page ''from an article'' on this site" - the ''articles'' are supposed to make a ''knowledge base'' containing ''facts'' about ''H*R''. However the site as a whole contains the knowledge base, the forum, the fanstuff, the chat channel, etc... so links between them ''outside the articles themselves'' are still good. {{User:phlip/sig}}

:Take it easy, FaceCrap. It's not an extremely good idea to talk like that. — {{User:Lapper/sig}}

:Yeah, I guess not. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

So,''anyway'', if no one's said anything against the Fanstuff links for days, why hasn't somebody put them back? I would, but if it were a good idea to, somebody probably would've already. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:I am against putting the fanstuff links there. People should just visit fanstuff themselves. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 14:05, 24 Sep 2005 (UTC)

::Well, you ''can'' just go to the external links part of the side template, true, but it might be easier to have direct links on the bottom of the page. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:So what, we have to be actively posting here all the time saying "I still don't want the fanstuff links there" after the discussion seems settled? OK, to make it explicit: I think they should not be there, and I will continue to think they should not be there until such a time as I specifically post saying otherwise. Until then, take it as read that I am posting here regularly saying they should not be there. {{User:phlip/sig}} 16:02, 24 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I feel that having fanstuff links would only be kinda like linking to the forum. I also think that the custom levels might be kind of like linking to the home-made or other character e-mails, but the cheat version still seems good. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 20:56, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

== Level 8 ==

I know people have commented on the whole level 7,-0,9 thing. I think I has the solution. After Level 10, TBC are likely to go back and do a level 8 as somewhat of a lost level. I'm dissapointed there was no swimming level, so this might be where it comes in ( Level 10 defenitely won't be such a level.

==Easter Eggs==

::I don't think we need the snot bubble one there. We already recorded it on [[Stinkoman 20X6 Playable Characters]]. - {{User:Joshua/sig}}

== Stinkoman Labels ==

Personally, I think there should be some kind of consistency among the level titles. If we are to change the level 8's to level -0's, we should do that throughout the entire page and not just to one of the titles. I changed it back because, having two dashes -0-9 doesnt' exactly look pretty, and it would look even worse if we had (-0)-9, as I had seen once before (if my memory serves me right). Please accept my apologies but I will change it back to the way I had it for the aformentioned reason. If it is deemed better to have all level 8 labels turned into -0 label, then it should be done across the board. Thanks.--[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:36, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
:My vote is too change all '''-0''' tags into '''8'''s. I find the -0 title confusing when being used among other levels. This is probably especially true for newbies. 8 is just much simpler. And it's not entirely inaccurate either - Level 8 ''is'' called Level 8 in the Stinkomanual. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 17:41, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
:: But the ''game itself'' calls it Level -0. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:47, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
::: To me that says that the game creators (that would be TBC) both call it level 8 and level -0. However, my first issue still stands: ''consistency''. Having several titles call it level 8 and only one or two (or even half) level -0 is inconsistent and looks bad. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:50, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

:anyone thinking about who the end boss is going to be?-[[User:Anonomys|Anonomys]] 00:59, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

Ya, proably a Japanese Coach Z. there is s HRWiki article that mentions this.- Not currently a user, 11:02pm, 9th November 2005 (AEST)

Though I have a feeling it's so obvious that it's Coach Z, it might not be Coach Z at all. Just a theory. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 17:53, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

I think that it is Coach Z. In some of the cartoons, Coach Z is represented like that (I cannot remember where). When he was, he looked extremely similar to the end boss.
-Zyborg

Maybe the final boss is an armored Sticklyman. After all, maybe only the cape and armor are shadowed, and the "hat" may be some kinda visor.
:I changed my mind. I do think the Shadowy Figure is 20X6 Coach Z. On the fanstuff wiki, he has many names relating to Coach Z, like "Emeperor Z" and the popular "Master Z". In a Stinkoman comic called "Stinkoman 20X6: The Second Wave" he is called "Evil Z". I do think it is just 20X6 Coach Z, wearing sholder plates and a cape. His sprite is avalible in "Make-O Your Own Stinko", but it has no cape.

== Messy Page ==
The whole fun fact section of this page is a mess. I'm thinking we need to delete some facts, maybe move some pages, stuff like that.

:'''Hi!''' I have two points I'd like to talk about (sorry, I'm not really mentioning anything new).
:*This TALK page is indeed still messy. I think we should archive ''again'' everything except the Closed (STUFF), XML and couple of most recent (like level 9) conversations. Oh! and this section of course. I'd do it, but um, I hate to ask... how do you archive things again?
::*The Main page has its archives broken in pieces of 20, and has its own template and everything, I think this talk page merits that kind of organization.
:*Um yeah the page is kinda bloated. I was thinking making actual ''level'' pages for most stuff (we already have the walkthroughs, which the level pages can point to) like [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] suggested. I think it's doable at least for the early stages, and since the game is presumably nearly complete. That or Real World references should have its own page. So what should it be, individual level pages or Real World references? :D
::*Organizing the page now, will save us the headache of updating it later, when it's even more bloated. Adding to a new infrastructure isn't necessarily that much harder.
: Thank you guys for your time!

Some good examples of shortening is that we need to make either A: A Big Fun fact page or B: Seperate articles for all the facts and references.

== Separate Fun Facts Page ==

I have a (possibly controversial) suggestion: why not move *all* of the Fun Facts section to its own page? It is big enough to merit it, and that way we can leave the Stinkoman page short and clean. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 08:56, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

On another note, can the Closed STUFF have its own independent page?

It is only a sketch and this was the most concise and attractive version i could come up with. I [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202399&oldid=202396 played with different alternatives] and like this one above the best. The [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202396&oldid=202395 original facts] section would have looked like [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202394&oldid=202391 this] in the page (sorry for the glowy box, i'm kinda fond of it). The one above would look something like [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202409&oldid=202405 this]. I also just noticed that the <code><nowiki><h4></nowiki></code> tags don't hide the TOC, just mess it up a bit (i remember running into that problem before), and so I would need to change those to <code><nowiki><div font></nowiki></code> tags in order to eliminate them out of the TOC, yet keep their size intact. Any suggestions? (I will be removing the H4 tags shortly for those who miss it, so you'll have to read the page history.) --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 22:21, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

:The Sandbox version is prooty sweet - [[User:Volbeat A The Cheat|Volbeat A The Cheat]] 06:43, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

::Glad you liked it! Which one did you prefer more? Version [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&oldid=202394 1] or Version [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&oldid=202409 2]? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 21:06, 22 November 2005 (UTC)
:::I kinda like the first one. The second one makes the Table of Contents rather gargantuan... --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::::Yeah I was trying to fix that problem. I'd like the 2nd one better if I could get around the TOC problem (unless we were to hide it but that would be a copout). Oh... I think I have a better idea! --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 21:54, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

::::Okay, so I went through 4 different revisions, three of which I liked: Version [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&oldid=203809 1b], [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&direction=next&oldid=203809 1c] (with index) and Version [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&direction=next&oldid=203813 2b] (no index), and still in contention is our original Version [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&oldid=202394 1]. I have also updated how version 2b looks above. Oh and I forgot to sign, anyway I did not mention that this version I posted do ''not'' show up in the table of contents at all! Which looks pretty nice and does ''not'' have those pesky edit links after each entry... whaddya think? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:11, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

:I posted that since I saw Volbeat's recent edit where he/she removed a comment about it and I thought it would be important to mention that for clarity. If you guys think we should start some sort of vote (wether or not to use this idea and which version to use), or if more people would comment more on the versions, that would be greatly appreciated. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:22, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

== Version 3 Mirror ==
:Formerly Version 2 Mirror

I have a working (i think) version of Stinkoman 20X6 v2. (is that the one with 4 levels?) When I get the chance to put it on my geocities server could it be put in an article? Just wondering, I don't mind if it can't. - [[User:Volbeat A The Cheat|Volbeat A The Cheat]] 09:04, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

I checked the file and it is actually the one with 5 levels on it, I guess that makes it version 3. Anyways I forgot to put it on my web server and I won't be able to for 2 or 3 days. - [[User:Volbeat A The Cheat|Volbeat A The Cheat]] 04:43, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
:Geocities unfortunately has bandwidth issues with popular pages. Have you checked to see if the [[Links#Mirrors|kitcorp mirror]] has that version already stored? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 05:20, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

::Me dunno. Last time I checked kitkorp, it didn't even have the stinko-updated games menu. But things may have changed in the last 5 or 6 months. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 13:43, 3 December 2005 (UTC)

:::Wow! yeah, they rarely ''do'' update. They don't even have the stinkoman game in their games menu! However, I was [http://homestarrunner.kitkorp.com/stinkogame/ lucky enough] to stumble into an [http://homestarrunner.kitkorp.com/homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/v4/ old] [http://homestarrunner.kitkorp.com/homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/v4/stinkogame.html version] they do have archived but does not contain the necessary XML files to make it playable, just the SWF.

==Manual Change==

Has anyone noticed that the manual now shows the "Giving up already?" page right after Nebulon's boss page? Don't know when this happened.
:Not happening to me ''now'', but something similar happened to me a while back; maybe your cache needs updating (though that wouldn't explain my problem, as I intentionally always keep my cache at a bare minimum) or maybe it's a problem with the site. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 03:44, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

== Music ==
Does anybody know where does the music of Stinkoman_20X6 comes from?, I think that should be pointed out in the article [[User:200.112.49.135|200.112.49.135]] 21:44, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

==Game Informer==
When I got the April 2006 issue of Game Informer, I was shocked that Stinkoman 20X6 has been featured in the beginning. Have you guys noticed this too? That is if you read Game Informer. {{User:Gordon 584.sig}}
: I had been informed by an online contact of mine, though I don't have a subscription myself. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 01:37, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
==Rival and Stinkoman MM7 game==
Do you think that Stinkoman is going to get a rival? If so, it would be funny if its sprite was an edit of Bass's.
It would be cool to have a new Stinkoman game with Megaman 7 graphics. It could even have a parody of the MM7 plot (Stinkoman's rival does a horrible attempt to trick Stinkoman into being his "friend", and Stinkoman easily falls for it) the Stinkoman version of Rush would be The cheat and Treble could be a rival The Cheat (The Cheat is a The Cheat, according to "Origins" and other sources"). This is just my idea.
-Zyborg

==Marzipan Character==
I think it would be awesome to play a Marzipan character who "floats" like Princess Toadstool in Mario Bros 2. Or maybe the pompom character could be like Kirby? Perhaps those ideas would be better suited for 20X6 II or maybe a Homestar Runner side scroller. - {{unsigned|12.158.72.52|03:27, 17 April 2006}}

To answer, we look to the power of numbered lists:
#First of all, this doesen't have much to do with 20X6.
#The Brothers Chaps don't steal ideas.
#There is a [[Pom Pom]] counterpart already, his name is [[Pan Pan]], and he is the basis of Stinkoman 20X6's story.
#As for [[Marzipan]], here is a [[20X6 Marzipan|slightly abandoned idea]].
#Five.
#20X6 II? The first one isn't even finished. And screw a new Homestar game.
#Sign your posts please. use the <nowiki>~~~</nowiki> or <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki> tags to sign your posts, even if you don't have an account.

That is all. - [[User:Volbeat A The Cheat|Volbeat A The Cheat]] 10:11, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
:#20X6 Marzipan is entirely 20X6 related.
:#The entire Stinkoman 20X6 is based off the NES Mega Man, with the sprites based off of Mega Man's.
:#True. So maybe Pan Pan could be this "pompom character". Although I don't think he'll float...
:#Yes, and she could appear again, as some kind a roll edit possibly.
:#Evif.
:#I agree. It's kind of too late to introduce 20X6 Marzipan. Pan Pan's still a possiblity, though. I highly doubt they're ever going to make a Stinkoman 20X6 II though.
:#Signing, whee...
:#Oop.

:::Your reply is better than mine. You shall have five pies. - [[User:Volbeat A The Cheat|Volbeat A The Cheat]] 00:06, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

Maybe we could get the person on fanstuff making 'Stinkoman 20X6 2' to include some o' that. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 00:33, 20 April 2006 (UTC) Oh, and people who don't have an account yet don't ''have'' to sign. It's just a dumb string of numbers.

On the fanstuff wiki, I've started a Stinkoman 20X6 2 thing and DonZabu says he'll make it a reality using Game Maker Version 6. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the current subject, but I just thought you'd like to know. 20X6 Marzipan should make another appereance. I mean, I'm sure that TBC wouldn't abandon the character. They might improve it's design like with Old-Timey Strong Sad, but hopefully not abandon it. -[[User:Mitchell00|Mitchell00]] 11:12, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
:Don't forget to everybody remember [[Trogador]]. Everbody thought he was abandoned until they surprised us by using him. - {{User:Super_Sam/sig}} 11:56, 23 April 2006 (UTC)

== Last Boss Ideas ==

Is anyone thinking about what the final boss is? I think it has 2 forms. The first one would be the Shadowy Figure, and he could take 30 hits. But after you defeat him, you'll be transported to a the roof of the Evil Castle, and you'll fight Sol Giant, this '''GIANT''' robot that takes 50 hits to kill, and takes '''TWO''' hits to register an actual hit, making it really take '''100''' hits to kill. Here's the transcript:

Here's my second idea. Level 10's boss is the Shadowy Figure/20X6 Coach Z, and he fights using a laser sword. After you beat him, there should be like a "Level Final" where the Shadowy Figure/20X6 Coach Z is in the Z-Wing(the name I gave to the Coach Z ship on the games menu), and he's trying to make a getaway. Is this better?

A third idea. Shadowy Figure/20X6 Coach Z with laser sword like Idea#2, but this time, when you beat him, he reveals this 4-legged mech that looks like something Dr. Wily from Megaman yould use, called the Z Machine(considering he is 20X6 Coach Z). Well, the Z Machine would have 3 forms. Form 1 just has 4 legs, Form 2 would have no legs, but would have 2 mechanical arms and would float about. Form 3 would just be the hovering Z Machine without arms or legs. This idea is a good one.

Or maybe like a boss recap; where all the boss fights from the previous worlds would be fought in order (with frequent health power-ups between battles), and it ends with the Shadowy Figure battle concepted above. Seems like a good idea to me.--[[Special:Contributions/64.91.158.52|64.91.158.52]] 18:40, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

==Is Level 10 Ever Coming?==

Apparently so. I just stumbled across this in the forum, figured I'd bring it to the wiki if it's not already here yet, since it seems somewhat legitimate, what you might glean from an interview or the like, in the form of an [http://forum.hrwiki.org/viewtopic.php?t=5995&start=69 email from Matt to Power Crunch]:

<blockquote>And don't sweat Stinkoman level 10. It's coming. For real. Our 
programmer guy moved away a year or so ago so it's been harder to put 
games together but we've got level 10 all figured out and hopefully it 
will rule.</blockquote>

So that's always a plus. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 23:41, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
::I am in fact, Power Crunch on the forum. And I in fact, apologize if that's confusing. But I in fact, must say, that if you'd like to read the whole letter.

<blockquote>Hey Daniel,
Sadly, we probably won't ever get a talking Homsar. The toys were all a
pretty big pain in the butt to get made and cost a buncha money. I did
recently find this awesome company that makes the little voice box type
things for talking plush dolls: 

http://www.gmkmg.com/recordable_products.htm 

So if you happened to be able to sew or knew someone who could sew, then
you could make a Homsar, stick one of those voice boxes in him and put
your fav Homsar jams on it. I know that's kind of a ridiculous thing to
suggest but I just thought of it cause I want to make a musical stuffed
Epona (Link's horse from Legend of Zelda) for my brother's baby that
plays Epona's Song when you squeeze it. 

And don't sweat Stinkoman level 10. It's coming. For real. Our
programmer guy moved away a year or so ago so it's been harder to put
games together but we've got level 10 all figured out and hopefully it
will rule. We're also working on a big adventure game like Peasant's
Quest except more like the Lucasarts point n' click style games. And
this one will feature the actual characters from the website, not made
up characters like Thy Dungeonman and Peasant's Quest. 

High five and thanks for writing.

So once the Brothers Chaps get a new programmer guy, we can expect Level 10 to come really soon? That's good to hear. At least we get to know what the really long holdup was.

== Continute ==

You expect this game having to let you skip levels? Well, I say that is cheating! I expect NO cheaters allowing to make this game, even if it takes me 40 days and 40 nights! What kind of garbage makes no passwords acquired to activate CONTINUTE, huh?
- From a loyal, somewhat etiquette fan, {{User:Viklas/sig}} 21:00, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

:Stinkoman uses [[Wikipedia:Local Shared Object|Local Shared Objects]] to store where you're up to in the game, so you can leave and come back and Continute still remembers where you are. One of the restrictions of LSOs is that they're restricted to one URL - when the game moved to a <code>/v2/</code> subdir, it could no longer access the continute data from before. Thus TBC had two choices – either force everyone who's beaten the game to beat it again every time a new level comes out, or let them start from the new level wherever they were up to before. They understandably chose the latter, because the former would be much more annoying. If you consider it cheating, feel free to not use the feature, and play the game from Level 1.1 every time; I'm not stopping you. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 03:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

What exactly is the object library? Whenever I click on the link it just takes me to one of two things.

What gives?--[[User:Kirbychu HR'D|Kirbychu HR'D]] 01:01, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I don't know. The object library used to be filled with stuff. Now, it's just... those things. Donno what happened. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 15:30, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

== Level 10 ==
Looking at this week's [[Weekly Fanstuff|fanstuff]], does anyone else think that TBC are giving us like, a hint at something? Kind of like how [[shapeshifter]] linked to [[Strong Bad Gameways|SB GWs]], which was a preview for [[Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People|SBCG4AP]]? {{User:DevonM/sig}}

In an e-mail I sent to Strong Bad last week or so: 
"''PS: When is Stinkoman level 10 coming? We're already waiting three years!''" 
But with all the gazillions of people that e-mail Strong-o Bad-o there must be at least 100 that ask when Stinkoman Level 10 is coming. So I dunno, maybe it did the trick. [[User:AlmsforthePudgy|AlmsforthePudgy]] 14:35, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

:Some people used to have sprite sheets available on the fanstuff wiki, but they're currently unavailable.

Jezzamon: /**/Level 3.1/3.2

um. are we even really allowed to facilitate downloading like that?

:This stuff is freely available for anyone to download. We just link it conveniently. Besides, don't you download all this stuff anyway if you play Stinkoman 20X6? {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 20:50, 20 October 2005 (UTC)
::You do, and sometimes repeatedly! A local copy saves bandwith for hsr, and therefore bandwidth costs. Why re-download it every time for cache when you can do it just once and never have a problem? The thing is, 1.3, 2.3, and 3.1 and 3.2 are all not listed for leveldata. Do they not exist, are they not needed, or was the original txt file (which didn't have them either) inaccurate? --anon 21:38, 2 November 2005 (UTC)
:::It doesn't have them because of the way those levels are designed. All that's in the xml files are placements of objects. Since 1.3 and 2.3 are nothing but a background, the floor, and the respective bosses, TBC probably just hard-coded these levels into the main swf file. And levels 3.1 and 3.2 are random placements of the objects that are in that level, there's no reason for level data there either. --[[User:NFITC1|NFITC1]]

== Cutscene ==

Why is there a listed a cutscene before level 9.3 and 7.3 ? There is no cutscene before level 7.3 or 9.3. {{User:Tampo/sig}}

:I haven't looked into the cutscene code, but I think that the black space before said levels '''is''' the cutscene. I'm going to add them back for the sake of completeness. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}} 16:19, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Well, I think you have to edit the flash file to get them to work offline first (which is not too hard). They are at:

[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.1.1.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.1.2.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.2.1.xml]

[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.3.3.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/stinkogame.swf]

Those are the ones I found in my temp folder (even though I didn't get to those levels). If you go to ''View'' -> ''Page Source'' in Firefox, you can kinda figure out how it works (maybe). --[[User:Ed smildE|EDSMILDE]]
''Edit: Darn, the links don't work. They are in some other folder. Once I figure out the folder name, the game will work offline. And they don't show up on Google yet.''

Ooh - found it - They're in another folder called "levelData."
[[User:Ed smildE|EDSMILDE]]

-As a note for other people wanting to edit, you need to get the 5 level files, the main swf, and the object library: [http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/objectLibrary.swf]. (You can see some game graphics if you view that file)

It's a pretty simple almost-XML format, I'm making a level editor for it now.

== IS This Right? ==
When I download some of the cutscenes, they are very small in size (1.1.3 is 13 kb) and when I open them, it's just a bit of background on either side with a big black square in the middle. Is this right? {{User:Coachstar Bad/sig}} 16:13, 26 February 2006 (UTC)
:Yes. Some of them are very small because there is no cutscene there, and the cutscene file is just a placeholder - take eg cutscene1.1.2.swf, which plays between levels 1.1 and 1.2 - there is no cutscene between those levels. cutscene1.1.3.swf is small because it is short and simple. As for when you open them up on their own, they won't do anything, because they try to talk to the game - if you don't watch them through the game then they won't work. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 12:06, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

== Movement stickiness ==

:Probably not. It's fairly common in parser-based games, or games using the keyboard to navigate. Hitting a direction key starts the character moving in that direction, hitting it again causes the character to stop. Holding it causes the character to alternate between moving and halting, causing stickiness. I don't think it's a reference as much as it's just the way that these types of games work.

== Fairly On Point Kings ==

Is it just me, or is it quite plausable that [[Strong Mad]] is being played by a dresser? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 17:06, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:Seems logical to me. Making such a rectangular costume might be a tad difficult (can YOU balance a thick wooden board on your head for a long time?). Obviously, it's a fairly thick surface, as it doesn't bend at the ends, like a piece of cardboard might if balanced on someone's head and draped with a sheet. Also, the place where Strong Mad's arms would be are kinda limp-looking (perhaps indicating that there's no person in the costume who would manipulate the arms). It looks about the right size for a dresser too, judging by the fellow dressed as Strong Bad next to it. And lastly, the Kick The Cheat plushie on top indicates that it's a level surface, which would be hard to do on a person. So, in summary, it's not just you. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::Actually... I'm pretty sure there's a person in there. My wife and I are pretty sure we saw them at a Japanese culture convention or two, most likely [http://www.pacificmediaexpo.com/ Pacific Media Expo] or [http://www.anime-expo.org/ Anime Expo]. Note the badge hanging around Strong Bad's neck. I'd have to dig out my collection of conbadges to see if one of them matches, but I'm still quite sure that they're the same people, from the distinctively lopsided shape of the Strong Bad costume's head. Anyway, the Strong Mad costume mostly consisted of a wooden frame, and I'm pretty sure that they had handles coming down from the top inside the costume to support it.

== Rag Doll? ==

That type of doll is called either a UFO Catcher Doll or a Plushie. A rag doll is made from scraps of leftover material.
:All soft toys are plushies, a ragdoll is a plushie stuffed with scraps of rags, and a UFO catcher doll is a plushie you got from a UFO catcher machine (do people actually WIN those?)

::This doll was actually made from cut up t-shirts, so the term rag doll does seem appropriate. His feet aren't actually preternaturally large, rather he was sitting in a chair in the original photo, causing his feet to look huge through perspective.

The Cheatar controller is really just a Bratz Plug-And-Plau Guitar thing.

Okay, since the XML source code now has the tag "<fanstuff>trogdor smash bros level</fanstuff>" and not the previous one, would it now be a good time to change last week's description to lowercase? Ya gotta match the image and be consistent.
:No. Never. Screw consistancy. Keeping it caps ''preserves'' the XML's writing of it, showing a noteworthy deviation from the standard. You might as well say, "Okay, now that that Quote of the Week isn't there anymore, we should change the transcript to say "I say tomatermorts" instead of "I zader matermorts"." That's not how it works. The XML shows the true intent of how the caption was to be written, and as we don't have a record of each XML change (save for the history of [[Weeklies XML]]), the fanstuff/sketchbook sections should document the change instead. After all, this isn't the first time this has happened either. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:45, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
::Is it possible to depict the text in the "text" column as it was seen by visitors, and then comment that the XML was different? I don't know about you, but I don't think visitors care what the XML says, they care what the text looks like. That's why everyone and their sister seems to want to change it. Regarding your example, Dorian, we saw the text as "zadermorts" so there was never an argument on that one. This one, we see something different than what's in the code. That's notable. But this is not a "XML Code" column, it's a "text" column, and as such it should reflect the text we see. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 07:22, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

:::::If there's a difference between capitalization in the XML code and the actual viewed page (which is all the probably 95% of the page-viewers bother looking at), then I think it's notable. The only reason it wouldn't be, in my opinion, is if anything in the XML code is automatically converted to lowercase in the page view. If that's the case, then yes, let's capitalize it as the XML had it. But Dorian, please, we're all mature adults here. There's no need to be rude over something like this. {{User:Onamuji/sig}} 19:44, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
:::::No, it's not the end, "name I can't call you here but I bet you can figure it out". The displayed text - the words Joe Fan sees - is ''different'' from the text embedded away in the XML. As such, the more prominent, visible, '''associatable''' text is not capitalized. No one but you and your loser friends looks at the XML. (that was a joke, not a putdown) The displayed text ''should'' be what is in the ''Text'' column. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 20:11, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
::::::Hm. I really can't tell if you mean me or Dorian, Qermaq. Lol? Anydangway, I've been looking around at the weeklies wiki page and source codes and such, and it occurred to me: we don't cut the visible text off our picture of the picture. Anyone looking at the picture in question can, indeed, see the text as it appeared to Joe User. So, then, why not capitalize the text as it appears in the XML? After all, if all we're going to do is repeat the text exactly as it is ''two inches to the left''...what's the point of having the column at all? (And I apologize in advance for my sig doing this. Dang nowrap command. I'm working the kinks out.){{User:Onamuji/sig}} 20:19, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
:Ooh, extra point I just thought of--since the text column is kind of useless if it just copies the text on the picceh (and I had thought that even before being a registered user), why don't we just change the label to "XML Code Text" and perhaps make it a link to the relevant wiki page? {{User:Onamuji/sig}} 20:21, 15 March 2008 (UTC) again

How do you send fanstuff so that they have a chance to get put on the weekly fanstuff? Do you email it to the BCS?

''Posted by Martin F.''

I don't know in every case, but as mentioned above, I sent in my wedding invitation in early May to TBC through the mailing address in the Store P.O. box. We didn't know if it would get to them, but it clearly did. It wasn't intended to be fanstuff; we actually wanted them to see it. At any rate, I suppose you could also e-mail them to TBC.

== Fairly On Point Kings ==

Is it just me, or is it quite plausable that [[Strong Mad]] is being played by a dresser? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 17:06, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:Seems logical to me. Making such a rectangular costume might be a tad difficult (can YOU balance a thick wooden board on your head for a long time?). Obviously, it's a fairly thick surface, as it doesn't bend at the ends, like a piece of cardboard might if balanced on someone's head and draped with a sheet. Also, the place where Strong Mad's arms would be are kinda limp-looking (perhaps indicating that there's no person in the costume who would manipulate the arms). It looks about the right size for a dresser too, judging by the fellow dressed as Strong Bad next to it. And lastly, the Kick The Cheat plushie on top indicates that it's a level surface, which would be hard to do on a person. So, in summary, it's not just you. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::Actually... I'm pretty sure there's a person in there. My wife and I are pretty sure we saw them at a Japanese culture convention or two, most likely [http://www.pacificmediaexpo.com/ Pacific Media Expo] or [http://www.anime-expo.org/ Anime Expo]. Note the badge hanging around Strong Bad's neck. I'd have to dig out my collection of conbadges to see if one of them matches, but I'm still quite sure that they're the same people, from the distinctively lopsided shape of the Strong Bad costume's head. Anyway, the Strong Mad costume mostly consisted of a wooden frame, and I'm pretty sure that they had handles coming down from the top inside the costume to support it.

Okay, since the XML source code now has the tag "<fanstuff>trogdor smash bros level</fanstuff>" and not the previous one, would it now be a good time to change last week's description to lowercase? Ya gotta match the image and be consistent.
:No. Never. Screw consistancy. Keeping it caps ''preserves'' the XML's writing of it, showing a noteworthy deviation from the standard. You might as well say, "Okay, now that that Quote of the Week isn't there anymore, we should change the transcript to say "I say tomatermorts" instead of "I zader matermorts"." That's not how it works. The XML shows the true intent of how the caption was to be written, and as we don't have a record of each XML change (save for the history of [[Weeklies XML]]), the fanstuff/sketchbook sections should document the change instead. After all, this isn't the first time this has happened either. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:45, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
::Is it possible to depict the text in the "text" column as it was seen by visitors, and then comment that the XML was different? I don't know about you, but I don't think visitors care what the XML says, they care what the text looks like. That's why everyone and their sister seems to want to change it. Regarding your example, Dorian, we saw the text as "zadermorts" so there was never an argument on that one. This one, we see something different than what's in the code. That's notable. But this is not a "XML Code" column, it's a "text" column, and as such it should reflect the text we see. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 07:22, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Anyone looking at the picture in question can, indeed, see the text as it appeared to Joe User. So, then, why not capitalize the text as it appears in the XML? After all, if all we're going to do is repeat the text exactly as it is ''two inches to the left''...what's the point of having the column at all? (And I apologize in advance for my sig doing this.

Is it just me, or is it quite plausable that [[Strong Mad]] is being played by a dresser? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 17:06, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:Seems logical to me. Making such a rectangular costume might be a tad difficult (can YOU balance a thick wooden board on your head for a long time?). Obviously, it's a fairly thick surface, as it doesn't bend at the ends, like a piece of cardboard might if balanced on someone's head and draped with a sheet. Also, the place where Strong Mad's arms would be are kinda limp-looking (perhaps indicating that there's no person in the costume who would manipulate the arms). It looks about the right size for a dresser too, judging by the fellow dressed as Strong Bad next to it. And lastly, the Kick The Cheat plushie on top indicates that it's a level surface, which would be hard to do on a person. So, in summary, it's not just you. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::Actually... I'm pretty sure there's a person in there. My wife and I are pretty sure we saw them at a Japanese culture convention or two, most likely [http://www.pacificmediaexpo.com/ Pacific Media Expo] or [http://www.anime-expo.org/ Anime Expo]. Note the badge hanging around Strong Bad's neck. I'd have to dig out my collection of conbadges to see if one of them matches, but I'm still quite sure that they're the same people, from the distinctively lopsided shape of the Strong Bad costume's head. Anyway, the Strong Mad costume mostly consisted of a wooden frame, and I'm pretty sure that they had handles coming down from the top inside the costume to support it.

Take good notice of the weird shape of those windows.

Okay, since the XML source code now has the tag "<fanstuff>trogdor smash bros level</fanstuff>" and not the previous one, would it now be a good time to change last week's description to lowercase? Ya gotta match the image and be consistent.
:No. Never. Screw consistancy. Keeping it caps ''preserves'' the XML's writing of it, showing a noteworthy deviation from the standard. You might as well say, "Okay, now that that Quote of the Week isn't there anymore, we should change the transcript to say "I say tomatermorts" instead of "I zader matermorts"." That's not how it works. The XML shows the true intent of how the caption was to be written, and as we don't have a record of each XML change (save for the history of [[Weeklies XML]]), the fanstuff/sketchbook sections should document the change instead.

Regarding your example, Dorian, we saw the text as "zadermorts" so there was never an argument on that one. This one, we see something different than what's in the code. That's notable.

How do you send fanstuff so that they have a chance to get put on the weekly fanstuff? Do you email it to the BCS?

''Posted by Martin F.''

I don't know in every case, but as mentioned above, I sent in my wedding invitation in early May to TBC through the mailing address in the Store P.O. box. We didn't know if it would get to them, but it clearly did. It wasn't intended to be fanstuff; we actually wanted them to see it. At any rate, I suppose you could also e-mail them to TBC.

== Fairly On Point Kings ==

Is it just me, or is it quite plausable that [[Strong Mad]] is being played by a dresser? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 17:06, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:Seems logical to me. Making such a rectangular costume might be a tad difficult (can YOU balance a thick wooden board on your head for a long time?). Obviously, it's a fairly thick surface, as it doesn't bend at the ends, like a piece of cardboard might if balanced on someone's head and draped with a sheet. Also, the place where Strong Mad's arms would be are kinda limp-looking (perhaps indicating that there's no person in the costume who would manipulate the arms). It looks about the right size for a dresser too, judging by the fellow dressed as Strong Bad next to it. And lastly, the Kick The Cheat plushie on top indicates that it's a level surface, which would be hard to do on a person. So, in summary, it's not just you. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::Actually... I'm pretty sure there's a person in there. My wife and I are pretty sure we saw them at a Japanese culture convention or two, most likely [http://www.pacificmediaexpo.com/ Pacific Media Expo] or [http://www.anime-expo.org/ Anime Expo]. Note the badge hanging around Strong Bad's neck. I'd have to dig out my collection of conbadges to see if one of them matches, but I'm still quite sure that they're the same people, from the distinctively lopsided shape of the Strong Bad costume's head. Anyway, the Strong Mad costume mostly consisted of a wooden frame, and I'm pretty sure that they had handles coming down from the top inside the costume to support it. Here's another picture that also shows Strong Mad's feet: [http://image46.webshots.com/47/7/78/24/388577824NhyKtG_ph.jpg]. -- [[User:Laser-Grilled Crab & Cheese Sandwich|LGC&CS]] 04:09, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, it looks like a bookbag/bagpack of sorts. On the left, it seems to be carried by some lady and it hangs down to her waist (those are pretty long straps).

Take good notice of the weird shape of those windows.

That type of doll is called either a UFO Catcher Doll or a Plushie. A rag doll is made from scraps of leftover material.

Okay, since the XML source code now has the tag "<fanstuff>trogdor smash bros level</fanstuff>" and not the previous one, would it now be a good time to change last week's description to lowercase? Ya gotta match the image and be consistent.
:No. Never. Screw consistancy. Keeping it caps ''preserves'' the XML's writing of it, showing a noteworthy deviation from the standard. You might as well say, "Okay, now that that Quote of the Week isn't there anymore, we should change the transcript to say "I say tomatermorts" instead of "I zader matermorts"." That's not how it works. The XML shows the true intent of how the caption was to be written, and as we don't have a record of each XML change (save for the history of [[Weeklies XML]]), the fanstuff/sketchbook sections should document the change instead. After all, this isn't the first time this has happened either. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:45, 15 March 2008 (UTC)
::Is it possible to depict the text in the "text" column as it was seen by visitors, and then comment that the XML was different? I don't know about you, but I don't think visitors care what the XML says, they care what the text looks like. That's why everyone and their sister seems to want to change it. Regarding your example, Dorian, we saw the text as "zadermorts" so there was never an argument on that one. This one, we see something different than what's in the code. That's notable. But this is not a "XML Code" column, it's a "text" column, and as such it should reflect the text we see. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 07:22, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Anyone looking at the picture in question can, indeed, see the text as it appeared to Joe User. So, then, why not capitalize the text as it appears in the XML? After all, if all we're going to do is repeat the text exactly as it is ''two inches to the left''...what's the point of having the column at all? (And I apologize in advance for my sig doing this.

Is there anyway to tell where these things come from?

== sending fanstuff ==

How do you send fanstuff so that they have a chance to get put on the weekly fanstuff? Do you email it to the BCS?

''Posted by Martin F.''

I don't know in every case, but as mentioned above, I sent in my wedding invitation in early May to TBC through the mailing address in the Store P.O. box. We didn't know if it would get to them, but it clearly did. It wasn't intended to be fanstuff; we actually wanted them to see it. At any rate, I suppose you could also e-mail them to TBC.

== Fairly On Point Kings ==

Is it just me, or is it quite plausable that [[Strong Mad]] is being played by a dresser? {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 17:06, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:Seems logical to me. Making such a rectangular costume might be a tad difficult (can YOU balance a thick wooden board on your head for a long time?). Obviously, it's a fairly thick surface, as it doesn't bend at the ends, like a piece of cardboard might if balanced on someone's head and draped with a sheet. Also, the place where Strong Mad's arms would be are kinda limp-looking (perhaps indicating that there's no person in the costume who would manipulate the arms). It looks about the right size for a dresser too, judging by the fellow dressed as Strong Bad next to it. And lastly, the Kick The Cheat plushie on top indicates that it's a level surface, which would be hard to do on a person. So, in summary, it's not just you. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]]

::Actually... I'm pretty sure there's a person in there. My wife and I are pretty sure we saw them at a Japanese culture convention or two, most likely [http://www.pacificmediaexpo.com/ Pacific Media Expo] or [http://www.anime-expo.org/ Anime Expo]. Note the badge hanging around Strong Bad's neck. I'd have to dig out my collection of conbadges to see if one of them matches, but I'm still quite sure that they're the same people, from the distinctively lopsided shape of the Strong Bad costume's head. Anyway, the Strong Mad costume mostly consisted of a wooden frame, and I'm pretty sure that they had handles coming down from the top inside the costume to support it. Here's another picture that also shows Strong Mad's feet: [http://image46.webshots.com/47/7/78/24/388577824NhyKtG_ph.jpg]. -- [[User:Laser-Grilled Crab & Cheese Sandwich|LGC&CS]] 04:09, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, it looks like a bookbag/bagpack of sorts. On the left, it seems to be carried by some lady and it hangs down to her waist (those are pretty long straps).

::Comparing it to the Gremlin in [[Wikipedia:AMC_Gremlin|this picture]], it doesn't look like one — at least the side windows in the back are different, and the hood seems to be longer.

:::An [http://images.google.co.nz/images?q=gremlin+amc&svnum=10&hl=en&lr=&safe=on&start=39&sa=N&ndsp=18 image search] shows similar cars to the one from the 'Kipedia article. Take good notice of the weird shape of those windows.

==Cheatar Hero? Pfft. Faked.==

The Cheatar controller is really just a Bratz Plug-And-Plau Guitar thing. [http://bratzdolls.tripod.com/bratz-rockangelz-guitar-tvgame-2005.jpg Image!] Compare the two (Bratz and Cheatar) and you can see they are the same shape, and have the same head. Although it has been engineered to look "Guitar Hero"-y, I doubt it works. Hell, the whammy bar is probably fake. Still. It looks cool, and I still want a (real) Cheatar Hero controller.

Okay, since the XML source code now has the tag "<fanstuff>trogdor smash bros level</fanstuff>" and not the previous one, would it now be a good time to change last week's description to lowercase? Ya gotta match the image and be consistent.
:No. Never. Screw consistancy. Keeping it caps ''preserves'' the XML's writing of it, showing a noteworthy deviation from the standard. You might as well say, "Okay, now that that Quote of the Week isn't there anymore, we should change the transcript to say "I say tomatermorts" instead of "I zader matermorts"." That's not how it works. The XML shows the true intent of how the caption was to be written, and as we don't have a record of each XML change (save for the history of [[Weeklies XML]]), the fanstuff/sketchbook sections should document the change instead. After all, this isn't the first time this has happened either. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:45, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't know about you, but I don't think visitors care what the XML says, they care what the text looks like. That's why everyone and their sister seems to want to change it. Regarding your example, Dorian, we saw the text as "zadermorts" so there was never an argument on that one. This one, we see something different than what's in the code. That's notable. But this is not a "XML Code" column, it's a "text" column, and as such it should reflect the text we see. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 07:22, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

Anyone looking at the picture in question can, indeed, see the text as it appeared to Joe User. So, then, why not capitalize the text as it appears in the XML? After all, if all we're going to do is repeat the text exactly as it is ''two inches to the left''...what's the point of having the column at all? (And I apologize in advance for my sig doing this.
