Marzipan and Strong Sad's Relationship

Would you say there are enough references? I thought about it for a while after finishing Marzipan and The Cheat's Relationship, but then I realized most of the references were simply Strong Sad calling just to talk to someone; and we have yet to find out if he definitely loves her, unlike when The Cheat animated an "I ♥ that Cheat" thought baloon over Marzipan's head.

References outside Answering Machines that I can remember now include Strong Sad#Character Video Transcript, 3 Times Halloween Funjob, strong badathlon, unnatural, and Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon. If we need contradictory examples, there's Homestarloween Party and The House That Gave Sucky Treats. Bad Bad Guy 02:30, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

I don't think their relationship is well-defined or consistent enough to warrant an article yet. On the other hand, we could use an article for something like Bubs and Coach Z's Relationship, in my opinion, where they frequently interact in consistent ways. Trey56 03:19, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

You can go write that if you want. I'm gonna wait for Marzipan and/or Strong Sad to make their love clearer to write what I said. Right now it feels kinda like Marzipan thinks she and Strong Sad are just friends. Bad Bad Guy 03:05, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

I can kinda see why else you've been putting that Bubs/Coach Z article off. (My 1st assumption is you're busy on other things) It would be hard to write subsections for it. Bad Bad Guy 19:14, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Strong Mad and The Cheat

That's quite a dandy list of relationships. How about Strong Mad and The Cheat? You usually see them together you know. — 166.129.32.117 (Talk | contribs) 18:21, 2 July 2007 (UTC) (left unsigned)

Strong Mad and The Cheat's Relationship — that's a great idea. If you feel like working on it, go ahead! Trey56 18:49, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Too Many Relationships

I think we have way too many relationships. The only ones that I think should stay are Homestar Runner and Marzipan's Relationship, Bubs and Coach Z's Relationship, Strong Bad and Homestar Runner's Relationship, Marzipan and The Cheat's Relationship, The Cheat and Strong Mad's Relationship and Strong Bad and The Cheat's Relationship. The rest like Strong Bad and Bubs's Relationship, are uneeded. Anybody agree? Sam the Man 14:16, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I've also noticed this, and think we should have a limit. Pretty soon, we'll start to get pages like "Senor Cardgage and Homsar's relationship". So, yeah, I think your list is pretty good. Although we might add Homestar Runner and Homestar Runner's Relationship. MIGHT. Anyone disagree? Bluebry 14:22, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I forgot Homestar Runner and Homestar Runner's Relationship. Thanks. That should stay too. And maybe, just maybe, Strong Bad and Strong Sad's Relationship and Homestar Runner and Pom Pom's Relationship. Sam the Man 14:25, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

I'm okay with those two. Bluebry 00:08, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. -- Super Martyo boing! 22:55, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Eh, I think Strong Bad and Pom Pom's relationship should stay. It's a good contrast to Homestar and Pom Pom's. — ^Sam_{Fisher (Come in, Lambert.)} 23:00, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

I agree with keeping those eight and am in utter confusion as to why no one tagged Strong Bad and Pom Pom's Relationship for deletion. Bad Bad Guy 16:33, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

Naming Convention

I've noticed that there seems to be no consistant order to how the pages are named. I propose the following, the names go in the order they appear on the characters page, namely, Homestar, Strong Bad, The Cheat, Strong Mad, Strong Sad, Pom Pom, Marzipan, Coach Z, Bubs, KoT, Poopsmith, Homsar Whichever of them is first in this list is first. Anyone else agree? I don't mind going through and moving them once this is decided. — Defender1031*Talk 14:39, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

I favor that order, since it more or less goes in descending order for who has the most appearances or lines, and Homsar is last because you know, he's "the secret guy". — ^Sam_{Fisher (Come in, Lambert.)} 14:59, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Where is the inconsistency? (All of the current pages would fit the following order: Homestar, Strong Bad, Strong Mad, Strong Sad, Marzipan, The Cheat, Bubs, Coach Z, Pom Pom.) I can't see any reason to move any of the pages. — It's dot com 16:15, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

Any order is inherently arbitrary. Go with what works. - Qermaq - (^T/C)  22:53, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

I'm not saying that we need to move them, simply that we set a standard to follow. — Defender1031*Talk 19:14, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
