Hey. I run kitkorp.com and that whole mirror that everyone abuses the pants off of for banners and buttons. Anyway, hope you guys dig my stuff.

And if you didn't know, I also run a games/forum site. Not that it's particularly awesome or anything, but if you're really bored or something, it's always open to visitors. Check it out! [http://www.scuzzstuff.org]

And now, for no particularly apparent reason, here is a picture of a large cheese doodle.

Kit: /* Smoking crack */

For the "S to the C, R O double L, my name is not Norman, but still I rock well!" rap, I always thought of it as "S to the C, R O double L, my name is not normal, but still I rock well!" If I'm the only one, then I'll shut up, but yeah. ~senor

*It's certainly Norman, because Norman Rockwell is a famous painter. It's a joke. <tt>[[User:Homestar Coder|Aurora the Homestar Coder]]</tt> 15:28, 9 Apr 2005 (MDT)

**Okay, thanks. :)

== A long one ==

Is it me, or has the current rap been kept longer than the previous ones? -Kinsey

:Yes, it has. {{User:FireBird/sig}} 15:35, 29 May 2005 (UTC)

== Broken links ==

All the links to the sbemail raps on http://e2tl.playvectrex.com just come up with a "HTTP 404 Not Found" page.

These three links are the only ones that do work:

[[User:The Tire|The Tire]] 23:16, 3 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I already changed all of these over to my mirror, problem solved.
--Kit

== Two things ==

First, the previous scroll rap link (scroll buttons and the Lappy) actually gives the present one.

Second, that mention of the Coach Z/Strong Bad rap duet being a reference to [[rampage]] is highly doubtful.. considering [[rampage]] came way after.

-- [[User:Mithent|Mithent]] 12:56, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== I know it would be hard now, but... ==

It would be cool if we had which emails the scroll button songs were active for, like for the second latest "119-130" or the latest "131-present."

Also, these shouldn't be called 'Email Raps,' they should be called 'Scroll Button Songs' or 'Scroll Button Raps' or something along those lines. [[User:señor|»ßenit, known as señor«]] 23:08, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

== The newest Scroll Button Song ==

The newest scroll button song that appeared after email 131 is also the song that Marzipan sings in [[replacement]]. Strong Bad says it is the worst song ever, but apparently he uses it now. - [[User:EMJS|EMJS]]

== Smoking crack ==

I don't believe that Coach Z is saying anything about smoking crack in the scroll button rap duet, I *think* he is saying then you must go crash, but I could be wrong.

:I definitly hear a "sh" at the end of Coach Z's rap...besides i doubt The Brothers would put such a drug reference, especially one encouraging drug use... -- [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 01:57, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Oh, he's saying crack. Make no mistake. For one thing, it rhymes with "attack." But the absolute proof is the fact that the Chaps changed it so quickly. Like, within a couple days. I don't know the exact time frame - could have sworn the dates used to be printed on this page.

: I think someone found TBC explicitly saying that it's "smoke crack." But he wasn't saying "must" as in "you should do this," he was saying it as in "you probably already do." --{{User:Jay/sig}} 19:08, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

::I'm just saying that if you listen to it with speakers on full tilt I hear coach z saying "crash"...then again it might just be Strong Bad begining to say "scroll"...but i still hear a soft "sh" rather than a hard "ck"... -- [[User:Tony Stony|Tony Stony]] 23:01, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

:::I recommend some new speakers.

:Crack rhymes with attack. That's proof enough for me. <tt>[[User:Homestar Coder|Aurora the Homestar Coder]]</tt> 23:08, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Yes, I agree. Crack=attack. That's definitley enüff prüff for me. --[[User:VolatileChemical|VolatileChemical]] 20:44, 18 Jun 2005 (UTC)

I always thought it was:
CZ: And if you're tryin' to fade me then you must smoke grass!
SB: Scroll buttons aww yeah like that heart attack.
I guess that doesn't really rhyme, but it's what it sounded like to me.

And as a side note, yes, they did not mean: "SMOKE IT!" They meant it as: "If you're making fun of me then obviosly you smoke something."

Scroll Button Songs

Kit — Wed, 08 Jun 2005 20:42:24 GMT

Kit: I just updated my mirror. Updating related links.

The '''Email Rap''' is the song that [[Strong Bad]] does on the [[Strong Bad Email]] menu page. The bottom rap is the first one, and they get more modern as the list progresses.

::::To quote UPGRADE from the MediaWiki 1.4.0 distribution:
=== Web installer ===

You can use the web-based installer wizard if you first remove the
LocalSettings.php (and AdminSettings.php, if any) files; be sure to
give the installer the same information as you did on the original
install (language/encoding, database name, password, etc). This will
also generate a fresh LocalSettings.php, which you may need to customize.

You may change some settings during the install, but be very careful!
Changing the encoding in particular will generally leave you with a
lot of corrupt pages, particularly if your wiki is not in English.

::::I'm assuming this is the method that was used to upgrade. I'm guessing that the error comes from selecting "en - English - Latin-1" instead of "en - English - Unicode".
::::To see what needed to be changed, I downloaded MediaWiki and created two different configuration files: one for Latin-1 and one for Unicode. I then used Cygwin to find the differences between the files. Output follows:
Michael Madsen@INSPIRON1100 /cygdrive/c/[...]/mediawiki-1.4.0/config

::::Based on this, the problem should be fixed merely by changing $wgUseLatin1 = true; to $wgUseLatin1 = false; in LocalSettings.php. --[[User:Pidgeot|Pidgeot]] [[User_talk:Pidgeot|(t)]] [[Special:Contributions/Pidgeot|(c)]] [[Special:Emailuser/Pidgeot|(e)]] 13:45, 3 Apr 2005 (MDT)

:::::Okay, I've fixed the encoding by changing $wgInputEncoding and $wgOutputEncoding via LocalSettings.php. Thank goodness. (And I just had an edit conflict with you Pidgeot. $wgUseLatin1 had been set to false all along. Good try though, as I looked into that as well before I figured out this solution.)[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 13:50, 3 Apr 2005 (MDT)

== Edit Conflicts ==

===Affected Articles===

<strike>I know of the following articles (there's bound to be more) that have not had any edits since April 2nd. All users see a persistent edit conflict message even when no such conflict actually exists. This is due to some sort of ISO Encoding error (or similar problem that Tom would understand) when the wiki was upgraded. The affected articles are listed below:
*[[dragon]]
*[[fingers]]
*[[japanese cartoon]]
*[[labor day]]
*[[techno]]
*[[Strong Bad's Room Main Page]]
*[[In Search Of The Yello Dello DVD]]
*[[Peasant's Quest Movie Trailer]]
*[[HRWiki:WikiTroll|WikiTroll]] (Cause for the most concern, as it is linked from the [[Main Page]].)
If anyone knows of other affected pages, please add them to the list above. Thanks! </strike>--[[User:The Paper|THE PAPER]] 22:13, 10 Apr 2005 (MDT)

''This seems to be a bug in PHP's gmmktime function which we use for converting timestamp formats. Specifically, it's incorrectly applying daylight saving time correction for timestamps between 3am and 4am on April 3, 2005. You can work around this by setting the timezone to UTC instead of local time. Trying add a line like this to your LocalSettings.php: <code>putenv("TZ=UTC");</code> -- [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Brion_VIBBER brion]''

:Hmm. [[MetaWikipedia:Help:Preferences]] doesn't seem to offer any solutions. I know I didn't have a problem with mine. Meaning, I didn't have to change anything after the upgrade for my sig to keep working. What about that "raw signatures" box?

:::Yes, that's exactly what you need to do. When it's unchecked, it will insert your signature as the link description (like so: <nowiki>[[User:FireBird|Your sig goes here]]</nowiki>).

::Well that's a relief, and yea, I don't mind if you steal the idea, I stole the basic idea from →[[User:FireBird|''<tt>FireBird</tt>'']], who came up with the idea of having a different color, symbols, ect, and I think he got help creating it by [[User:Tom|Tom]].

==Link plus more characters==
Extra characters after a link are behaving differently from before. Plurals still work the same:
*This is the best of all the [[Strong Bad Email]]s.
But possessives don't:
*[[Strong Bad]]'s boxing gloves ''(now)'' ''instead of'' [[Strong Bad|Strong Bad's]] boxing gloves ''(before)''

::I have to agree It's dot com. Is there anyway we can change it back? --[[User:Trogga|Trogga]] 11:54, 4 Apr 2005 (MDT)

:::As you can see by the red link above, "<nowiki>[[Strong Bad's]]</nowiki> boxing gloves" isn't the same as "<nowiki>[[Strong Bad]]'s</nowiki> boxing gloves". You can force it, like so: "<nowiki>[[Strong Bad|Strong Bad's]]</nowiki> boxing gloves", but that's just a workaround, and it takes more effort.

== The buttons ==

This isn't important, but why are the buttons on the left still flat and white, rather than being changed to normal buttons (for example, they would be gray and 3D on Windows 2000) as on Wikipedia? While I'm here, I might as well mention that I haven't noticed any problems. On top of that, I can upload files again on the Fanstuff Wiki. --[[User:Uh!

== Creating a New Account ==

I can't seem to sign up for a new account! "You have not specified a valid user name." is the error it keeps giving me. No matter what I try.
:Well, what usernames have you tried? Maybe you're trying to use characters not allowed by MediaWiki. --[[User:Pidgeot|Pidgeot]] [[User_talk:Pidgeot|(t)]] [[Special:Contributions/Pidgeot|(c)]] [[Special:Emailuser/Pidgeot|(e)]] 11:50, 4 Apr 2005 (MDT)
:I tried "Kit," "Kickmyassman," and "kitscuzz" All of which (according to the login screen) were not taken. What I'm actually trying to do is get rid of part of "[[User:unknown]]"s profile where he claims to be the "proud messanger of kitkorp.com" Since I don't know who the person is it's really bothering me, because I am the kitkorp.com admin... --[mailto:kit@kitkorp.com Kit]

I can't create, either, getting the same error. The nick isn't used by anyone else here, and it's not even alphanumeric, it's straight alpha, all lower-case.

Getting the same problem from my two machines (work and home), using both FF and IE. --would-be-phealy,

This problem appears to have been fixed, as can be seen by the fact that I now have an account. Apparently you need to have a capital first letter in your name now... --[mailto:kit@kitkorp.com Kit]

== AOL Freezing Up ==

It seems that AOL temporarily freezes up on every page, and does so seemingly temporarily on the Weekly Fanstuff page. Might this have something to do with the move?

:I can't really think of any specific reason. Are you on dialup? [[Weekly Fanstuff]] has a lot of images. Does the same thing happen on [[Floppy Disk Container]]?[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]] -- [[User:Tom|Tom]] 18:38, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)

== Crashing ==

It seems like every so often the Wiki cannot be found (I am given a traditional 404 error message). Things stay like that for a few minutes, but eventually re-appears. Is it just me?-- <tt>Posted by: [[User:-erson|-erson]] [[User talk:-erson|Talk]]</tt> 23:44, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)

:Nope, it happens to me too. I always thought it might be a traffic issue. <tt>[[User:Homestar Coder|Aurora the Homestar Coder]]</tt> 23:51, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
