Need a Pic of SB with his Helmet
Props to Has Matt? and Trey56 for uploading the pix used in the gallery I just made. There is currently no screen shot of SB with his helmet (or at least, not one that I can find). Can someone upload one and replace the stand-in pic with it? ΒΩΔΗ Pledge - Ever & More! 18:01, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- The gallery looks good! I added the picture of Strong Bad you suggested.

- Whoops, I did the exact same thing. Must have done it at nearly the same time. Sorry about that. XDSesshoumaru CianXD
- EDIT CONFLICT: Errm, I did too, so now we have three more-or-less duplicate pictures of Strong Bad wearing his miner's helmet (2 of which are true duplicates, Trey's being the odd-man due to Strong Bad having his arm raised). Now what do we do? --

- Hehe, let's leave the page as is, and I'll delete the duplicates, Image:Strongbadhelmets.PNG and Image:Strong Bad Miner Ever and More.png.

- Didn't mean to cause all the ruckus. :-) Thanks for the quick help, though! ΒΩΔΗ Pledge - Ever & More! 18:27, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
- And on the bright side of all this, now we know we have a bunch of people who are eager to contribute to this wiki. --

What we don't know about
I got to admit, this page is written well. Good structure, organization and formatting. What does bother me is that most of it is about something we don't know. It's good that the writers didn't wander to the realm of speculation (much), but whole paragraphs about "This is true for others, but we don't know if it's true here" doesn't add anything to the page. Example:
Little is known of the Order's membership recruitment process, if there is one. Since the Order consists of 10 of the 11 main male cast members (missing, notably, Homsar), being a regular cast member may be part of the basis for selection. Homsar's status as "the secret guy" (Halloween Potion-ma-jig) lends further credence to this theory, since his being a full cast member is questionable.
I suggest rewriting some of the page to reflect what we do know, but keep a little about the unknown. — Elcool (talk)(contribs) 09:14, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
- That's quite an understatement. The article is currently at least 50% speculation. I'm'a gonna go ahead and ask myself to remove a lot of it. Loafing

- OK, I went through the article and removed speculation, repetitions and events that I consider to be more relevant for the Ever and More! article. If someone is interested, they can check out the edit summaries for this edit and the next four, to see why I trimmed it down so much. I think the current size is fitting for something that was only featured once and that we know virtually nothing about. Loafing

Bobby Helmet
Should the description of the Cheat's helmet be changed to "Custodian helmet", or would that just confuse the matter? I'd think it would be fine since we're already using the proper names for the Barbute and Pickelhaube. -ReverendTed 03:14, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
- You could always just do [[Wikipedia:Custodian helmet|English bobby helmet]]. I kinda like it... Bluebry 03:17, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
Call me crazy, but...
Is it possible that Homestar Runner (the character, not the cartoon) is sexist? I was deeply offended by Marzipan's possible exclusion just because she's female. Anyone got any thoughts on this? -Sumgirl
- This is something that should really go on the forum, not on this talk page, as it is not about the article. But apart from that, nowhere in this toon has Homestar or anybody else said that Marzipan was excluded from the club. Loafing
