What Is Valor?

Why was my fun-fact about the valor deleted? The CGNU song "asks" 'What is valor?'. I didn't know that either so I looked in Wikipedia. This is a true fun-fact! E.L. Cool 14:03, 9 May 2005 (UTC)

Well noone seems to have come forward with an explanation for deleting it so just stick it back on I say. --Tony Stony 23:43, 11 May 2005 (UTC)

And back it was put. E.L. Cool 14:03, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

And off again! Valor and valor device are different things! -- tomstiff 14:06, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Oh.. Sorry. I didn't know what valor realy is and valor device was the first thing that came out of Wikipedia. Maybe we could put what Valor is on the fun-facts? E.L. Cool 14:54, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Done! -- tomstiff 15:02, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Thank you! E.L. Cool 17:47, 12 May 2005 (UTC)

Baba O'Riley

Probably not appropriate for the article, but it is cool: At the end of the email, if you scrub your mouse over the first four notes for a while, and then the second four notes for a while, it kind of sounds like the intro to "Baba O'Riley" by the Who.--70.106.199.215 01:38, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)

The Chort

There is a remark that states: "This is the first time Coach Z says The Cheat instead of The Chort." While true, I beleive this statement is not entirely accurate of what he is saying. The actual quote from the transcript reads: "Get yer head in the game, The Chort! The Cheat is wide open!"

I beleive it's safe to assume that Coach Z is still calling The Cheat "The Chort", but does indeed say "The Cheat" correctly. I beleive he may either be referring to a "team member" of the opposing team or, (very unlikely) the Cheat himself as a member of his own team (and thus pronouncing his name right). I think the remark should read: "This is the first time we hear Coach Z say The Cheat correctly. However, he is likely not referring to The Cheat himself."

Mario

The tab key can be used to play a truncated version of the Super Mario Brothers theme. It requries a sense of timeing but the theme is farily reecognizeble. Can anybody reproduce this, I'm not very musical but have heard the Mario theme endlessly.
A semi regesterd user: Aaron

The tab order in Flash is automatically generated – if the tab order does something funny it's not TBC's doing. I can't reproduce it here, but it could be that my version of Flash gives the notes a different tab order than yours does... or maybe I'm not getting the timing right or something... Seems to be a coincidence, either way. --phlip ^T_C 11:23, 25 June 2006 (UTC)

Aight, I dont know anything about programing flash and I did notice that those note combos appear in many tunes. It Just seems too perfect though, well I guess I'll just enjoy it then.

Homestar's knees tech

Could Homestar's Knees Tech be reffering to Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True, when The Cheat hit Homestar on the knees with a baseball bat in order to help Strong Bad win a race? Andrew911 18:57, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

While I think that is possible, I think it's more probable that it is just a general reference to injuring Homestar.

Wasn't Homestar hit in the head in Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True? (I don't have it in front of me now, though, so I don't know, but that'd make more sense...) --Jay (Talk) 21:46, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

Not sure, I don't have it, but my friend does, so I haven't seen it in a while, but according to the Tis True, Pom Pom, Tis True page he slides head first into the tree, so I'm not sure if getting hit in the head or flying headfirst into the tree caused his injury. However I think it would be easier for him to fly through the air if he was getting hit on the knees then on the head. Andrew911 01:35, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
