I am 100% certain seeing the [[HR:main_nav.swf|navbar]] with the podcast link removed on Saturday (September 22). I am not certain they removed Podstar Runner that day along with the removal of the link though the navbar, but it seems that they would. I am also not certain that the link was removed on Satuday, meaning it could have been removed the day before or something. {{User:Homestar-winner/sig}} 20:27, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Slight Infrequency

Should we expect erratic release days for sbemails from this point on? On mondays we are greeted with "email soon" at the top left, but that has not happened in the past few weeks.


Do you all think that this "pattern" will continue, or when do you think SBemails will return to their old timeslot?


-Ethan

I don't think they'll delay it every week. I wouldn't be surprised if this week's delay was due to the SuperBowl. Trey56 02:07, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] April Fool's Day

They haven't done anything yet... Totally not an S

I'm thinking there might be a real life issue surrounding the lack of updates. First the unannounced An Important Rap Song coming out late, the button coming out a day later, the lack of weeklies and a new Podstar, and now the lack of an April Fools. I'm thinking it's this, or they'll have a big comeback tomorrow. Dr. Clash 20:01, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

I think it has something to do with the baby. It's gotta be way more important than the site, if not, Mike's a bad father, and Matt's a bad uncle. --SD
There's not a lot of good to be had by speculating. TBC may have chosen not to do an April Fools feature this year, or they may have other things going on, or something else; we just don't know. Heimstern Läufer 01:16, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

This has been asked several times, you should check these links out. And as Tom says in several of these: there's this feed, provided and hosted by theblackforge.net. More information can be found in this livejournal post, the livejournal feed page, and the livejournal feed info page. For feeds provided by the wiki itself, see HRWiki:Feeds. --phlip TC 13:20, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Goof

"Takin' a Baby Break" don't work on main23: "Backstage Pass"

--Andrew

Yes, this is mentioned on Main Page 23. It's mostly coz of the flipped nature of the page. I think. --DorianGray 20:06, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Saturday? Sunday?

I am 100% certain seeing the navbar with the podcast link removed on Saturday (September 22). I am not certain they removed Podstar Runner that day along with the removal of the link though the navbar, but it seems that they would. I am also not certain that the link was removed on Satuday, meaning it could have been removed the day before or something. Homestar-Winner (talk) 20:27, 23 September 2007 (UTC)

main_nav.swf has Last-Modified: Fri, 21 Sep 2007 17:00:04 GMT and the podstar homepage was last modified 4 minutes before that – so... yeah. --phlip TC 08:42, 24 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Weentime teaser!

Ever since Eggs (toon), I've been trying to make sure to click on all the Main Page Messages to see if TBC has slipped us any secrets. Well, they've done it again, and I guess nobody else has noticed yet. The current "ween toon soon" message links to a silhouetted picture of the cast in what's probably their costumes this year. I've taken a screenshot in case it disappears before anyone gets to it. I'm a little pressed for time, otherwise I'd sit down and figure out how to add it all to the wiki myself. -- LGC&CS 19:03, 25 October 2007 (UTC)
