Arguments for:

• It's true, but not blaringly obvious.

Arguments against:

Additional comments:

• Someone needs to check this out.
  • I just checked it out, and it sounds backwards to me (the reverb is before the horn in the "normal" version (that is, the version on the page), and after it if you reverse the sound in a sound editor).
• Can we compare it with the boat on Main Page 3? That should presumably be forwards.

[edit] Gone With the Games

From: Homsar Main Page

Arguments for:

• The glitch is that if you move off the button early, the Heavy Lourde doesn't fall. Homsar's hat disappears just as the Lourde would have obscured it, since there is no need to animate it while it's hidden.
• All of the other buttons besides this one complete their cycles normally, even if you move off the button early.
• The main point here is that when you move the mouse off the button, the Lourde gets canceled, but Homsar's speech and hat movements keep going (up until the hat disappears), which leads to the glitch. If TBC had animated the hat even when it was behind the Lourde, then we wouldn't notice anything wrong.
• Things like this are interesting.

Arguments against:

• It's not a glitch, the animation stops and resets when you move off the button.
• Flash glitches clutter the Main Pages and aren't very interesting.
• This isn't the only main page that cancels an animation with similiar effects when you move your cursor off the button.

Additional comments:

• This is a glitch, not a Flash artifact (the latter only happens when you manipulate the flash file, by using special Flash commands or viewing the .swf). Glitches have their own category in Fun Facts, and ALL homestarrunner.com glitches are Flash glitches.
