Randomizer

Is this main page featured on the main page randomizer, or is it another deal like Main Page 22? Homestar Coder 17:30, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

From decompiling main_nav.swf, all main pages would appear to be gettable using the "main" link on the navbar. Then again, I know practically nothing about decompiling stuff. --ENUSY , 18:37, 19 September 2005 (BST)

I hit the "main" button a few times and eventually hit 23. So yes, it's on the main page randomizer. As for 22, I don't know if it's currently there or not. --Jay (Talk) 17:40, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I hit the main button on the bottom (not the one on the title page) and got 22. --- Camalex(talk)

I eventually got 21, 22, and 23. I removed part of the fact on Main Pages where it says you can't reach these pages. I haven't investigated whether clicking "come on in" will take you here. — It's dot com 20:19, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Come On In will not take you to 12, 22, or 23. At least I didn't get any of them after five minutes. Username-talk 20:23, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Just decompiled welcome.swf. The TOTAL_MAINPAGES line is set to 20, so yes, Main Pages 21, 22, and 23 are inaccesible by it. --ENUSY , 21:25, 19 September 2005 (BST)

Aw, man! That's what I was just doing. Erm, so, I can say that Venusy is right, at least. — It's dot com 20:53, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Clapperboard

Is there an article for the Clab Board thing? I can't find it. If there isn't, i think there should. How do I add it?--Martin925 21:36, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

The clapperboard? Well anyway, to make a page put - [[Clapperboard]] in the sandbox or on your userpage and it should appear in red. Click on the link and that will take you to the editing screen. Then, edit away!-- Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 22:10, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC) (the link name was fixed in this post — It's dot com)

Here also is the Wikipedia link for clapperboard, which should come in handy for you. — It's dot com 22:26, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Thanks guys. I call making it! lol I am so excited about learning how to make pages. Thanks so much!--Martin925 23:49, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Okay! Calm down, spaz! -FaceCrap

FaceCrap, don't make fun of other users.-- Bkmlb(talk to me·stuff I did) 02:40, 20 Sep 2005 (UTC)

2 Homestars

Okay, this main page proves there are 2 Homestars. Freaky. Homestramy20|^Talk 21:59, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I bet the one facing away from us is wearing a fake mustache. ;) — It's dot com 22:03, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Good hypothisis! Homestramy20|^Talk 22:23, 19 Sep 2005 (UTC)

Should there be a cloned homestar charcter page?

Nah, I don't think so. It's just one of those weird things that happen on Homestar Runner Dot Com every now and then. Also, it's debatable how much of the Main Pages are actually canon anyway. --DorianGray

its meraly a joke about stunt doubles.Darkstalker

Back Head

This is really freaky! I was pressing on the tab bar, and after a second of the yellow box scrolling really fast, Strong Bad popped up but facing me and he said "Oh, It's the back of my head!". Has anyone else ever gottn this? It was on the .swf file, just to tell you. -FaceCrap

Um... yeah, that's what he does when you mouse over it a second time. You know we have a wiki, right? :P (Sorry, forum quote.) - Joshua

 ? or !

Maybe I'm being nitpicky here, but I think it would be more appropriate for the transcript to read "Sup, man!" and "Sup!" with exclamation points instead of question marks. Especially in this context, I don't think they're really questions so much as just greetings. I don't know. That's just me.

i agree.......greatly

Incorrectly regarded as goofs

I know this article is still young, but I think so far we've been overly critical with regard to the goofs. I think DorianGray said it best: "It's debatable how much of the Main Pages are actually canon anyway."

• The Weeklies buttons are not truly flipped. It should go in this order, left to right: Random Toon, Sketchbook, Weekly Fanstuff, then Quote of the Week.
  • While this is true, TBC would have had to make another newbutton.swf for this to happen. So by them not doing this, we consider this a goof?
    • They went to the trouble to make the rest of the page reversed, why leave this one out? — It's dot com
      • I think they left this out simply due to the reason I supplied: Having to make an "reversed" flash file. I'll further extend this to homepage_23.swf. They didn't reverse the numerical order for a similiar reason. The only notable change I see from homepages.swf is the that the buttons are justified to the right instead of the left. —THE PAPER ^PREEEOW
        • But in making "homepages_23", they proved that they could have, if they wanted to, made "newbutton_23". Also, now that you bring it up, I think the numerical order should be reversed on the home pages. Again, why do most of a joke but not all of it? — It's dot com 21:51, 20 Sep 2005 (UTC)
• If The Cheat falls while the other Homestar is walking past, Homestar is in front of The Cheat even though from the perspective he should be farther away.
  • Things like this happen many times in main pages, See Firebird's edit on Main Page 13.
    • I could do without this one. Isn't it a Flash artifact and therefore disqualified anyway? In fact, I'm gonna give this one the del taco on those grounds. — It's dot com
• The support behind Homestar's head would be visible from the front, but doesn't show up on any of the other main pages.
  • It is true that other main pages do not have a piece of wood in that spot. However, for all we know it was added to the wooden "set" between Main Page 22 and this one for all we know. Perhaps we can move this to "remarks".
    • I'll move this to remarks. — It's dot com
• Homestar is standing in front of the set and the piece of wood that falls is behind it, so it should drop behind him, not hit him on the head.
  • Again, I think we're being overly critical here. Generally odd things that defy the laws of physics happen on main pages. Is it a goof every time Homsar's hat falls back to his head when normally it should have missed his head and fell on the ground? —THE PAPER ^PREEEOW 20:38, 20 Sep 2005 (UTC)
    • Meh, I could go either way on this one. — It's dot com 20:43, 20 Sep 2005 (UTC)
