[edit] The last Don

I noticed on Limo-zeen page Perry_Palaroncini, you mentioned Don Chapman and Donnie Chapman. Are these 2 different people? If so further explanation, or this will be really confusing. I R F 16:05, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

Good question--I'm confused as well; I think the claim is that Don Chapman (father) played Perry in the E-cards but Donnie Chapman (brother) played Perry in monster truck.Trey56 16:09, 21 October 2005 (UTC)

I think they both play him. — _talk Bubsty _edits 03:16, 2 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Greetings

Just stopped by and I felt like saying hello.--Homsarroks 21:49, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for the chocolates. Trey56 21:22, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

Hey, yo. I didn't know that english paper was your first email you ever saw! Thanks for the compliment on my name. Peace, --Theyellowdart 01:48, 2 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sig characters

Hey *****6. Just so you know, ever since you changed your signature, the first five characters don't show up. I have a pretty standard configuration with quite a few fonts, so it's likely that a lot of other users are experiencing the same thing. Cheers! — **'* *** **m 17:21, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for the tip! let's see if this helps: Trey56 17:29, 26 January 2006 (UTC)

That did the trick! :) — It's dot com

[edit] Reverting massive page moves

Wait. Don't do that. — It's dot com 03:25, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Yeah sorry, I thought I was going to help, and I realized it was a lost cause. Trey56 03:26, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I did that once too. Sorry if I messed up the process. — Lapper (talk) 03:28, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I got it all straightened out, and Jay and I just finished deleting all the pages. If that happens, just hang tight and wait for a sysop, 'cause you won't be able to fix it completely without deleting something. Sorry if I was abrupt, by the way. I didn't know what your plan was, and time was of the essence. Thanks for trying, though. Keep on tranglin'! :) — It's dot com 03:45, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

Out of curiosity, I thought we blocked Homestar walker a long long time ago. --DorianGray

Unless the logs were cleared somewhere along the way, it looks like the answer is no. As you can see, the only logs he has are moves. — Lapper (talk) 03:51, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

I changed that link to point to his block. — It's dot com

Oh, no problem...I entirely understand. I'm just glad all those pages got sorted out! Trey56 04:57, 27 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My babel Tower!

THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU!!!!!-glompglomp- Thank you! --אוקאלייליי (Ookelaylay)

You're welcome! Trey56 20:36, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] tanx oo

for templating my gifs... how do you do that??? sry for being a noob =( csours 20:57, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

For one of your two personal images, you add the line "{{personal-image|Csours}}" to the description. For your signature image, you add "{{personal-image-sig|Csours}}". If you ever want to abandon one of your images, add "{{personal-image-abandoned|Csours}}". Trey56 21:06, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

p.s., check out this page for more information. Trey56 21:08, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 500 The Cheats

Well, I don't care what anyone thinks...I liked it. Trey56 14:00, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

just wondering, who would i ask to get an official opinion about that? cause the homsar does move fast, but thats how fast he moves irl too (lol, irl). ill see what i can do... csours 04:30, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

I guess it's dot com would be the guy to ask, since he's the one who wrote the bit about the signature images. He clarified this comment a little on this page, indicating that he doesn't mind animated sig images, as long as they're not too distracting. I don't know, maybe it was fine the other way--they'll probably tell you if not! Anyway, sorry for the bother. Best, Trey56 05:14, 15 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Interesting edit summary

You're messing with our minds, Trey. You're messing with our minds. ;) — It's dot com 00:16, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

Indeed. -- Tom 02:30, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

I know--Stupid autofill! I meant to include "reword" as the edit summary, but my web browser thought it was so smart and reused this edit summary. I clicked "Save page" too early. I was wondering if anyone would notice! Trey56 14:26, 21 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sweet User Page

Nice User Page. If my computer wasn't so frustratingly slow, perhaps I'd have something as awesome. Maybe I'll get a userbox. But enough about me, no one wants to hear about that anyway... -RadSkat3 20:09, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! If you need any help when you're working on your user page, just let me know. Trey56 20:16, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Closing stuff

Hey there. I find that it's easier to close the STUFF item before making the archive. (To get the code, I just go one back in the history.) That way, you eliminate the (slim) possibility of someone changing the item between the time you archive it and close it, plus it gives you a handy red link to follow if the archive page is new. Keep on tranglin'! — It's dot com 19:04, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

That's a good idea — thanks for the tip! Trey56 19:07, 7 August 2006 (UTC)

Hey again. Lately I've noticed that you've been closing the STUFFs very soon after they've opened. I really feel that unless something has ridiculous support (like a vote difference around 20) or is patently true or false, then it shouldn't be closed for at least three or four days. I was still considering the chicken beak one, and I was probably going to vote against it. I think that making STUFF too speedy fosters the idea that you have to log in to the wiki every single day or your voice won't be heard (an attitude I think we should resist). As always, rock, rock on! — It's dot com 20:35, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough. The facts you're referring to were ones whose fate I judged to be clearly determined, but I totally agree that it makes sense to give everyone at least a couple days to look at even one-sided facts before they're closed. The guidelines you mentioned will be helpful in making better judgments in the future. Thanks :) Trey56 21:11, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] French subtitles

Hi Trey. I saw you did some edits to the French subtitles, saying that there were "superfluous spaces". Allow me to clear this : in French, we put spaces after some of the punctuation. For example we put a space before (and after, of course) "!" and "?", as in "J'aime Homestar Runner ! Et toi ?".
It's a simple rule but it's not like that in English, so I understand why you tought I messed up with the spaces. But trust me, for a French reader it will be more clear with spaces like that.
But thanks for your help anyway ^^ I'll go translate some more... --Meuhcoin 15:43, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

Oh. And here I thought I was doing you a favor. Sorry about that! Trey56 15:52, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sniff

I liked your old siggy.  Loafing 22:25, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

Thanks — I was just trying to conform to the signature policies...on the other hand, if I have the approval of a sysop, then maybe it's okay the other way :) Trey56 23:56, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

What! No exceptions unless you pay me five bucks! Hmmm, the policies state that "preferably a signature would include no more than one image", so it would be acceptable to have two. It's a bit tougher on animated images, which are "strongly discouraged". As a sysop, I do encourage users to follow these recommendations. But on the other hand, your old siggy did conform to the rules, just not the recommendations; so there was nothing wrong with it ;-)  Loafing 01:03, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Hm. Well, what do you think about the following idea for a new sig?

T R E Y 5 6 01:16, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Eh, I guess I kind of changed it on a whim; I'll probably change it to the old one. Or this new "loafified" one.

Doode! It's too long!

T R E Y 5 6

You'll have to go with your old one, then ;-)  Loafing 01:22, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Nuts, and I really had my heart set on all those tiny loaves...*sigh* ;) Trey56 01:23, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Testing parserfunction

Let's see if this works... Trey56 05:23, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Bwoken

I think your sig blew up... - Qermaq - (^T/C)  09:27, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

It could have something to do with the HRWiki:autocolumn there. Dot com might have an idea on what's up. -- Tom 16:08, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Well, it's definitely the autocolumn. I'll work on debugging it in a bit. — It's dot com 16:54, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Sorry! I'm sure it is the autocolumn (it works everywhere else, and wasn't there another problem with another function in autocolumns?) For now, I'll just replace my sig on that page with the appropriate text. Trey56 19:21, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Congratuidontcareaboutspelling

Hey! Tanx 4 fixin' my userbox! Here is your reward (:P It's that guy, who does that stuff! 18:30, 07 November 2006 (UTC)

Thank you for this glorious prize! It has... all the goldness of a bowl... without any of the bowlness of a gold. :D Trey56 23:42, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Sig

I kinda want my sig to look like this: Homestar's head, HeyMama in Homsar's shirt font, SB's head, and a jpg of the cheat whit a glowstick that leads to my talk page; if possible thanks!

(BTW, herse your one and 50$ ;) |$50| Soon with a sig, 8:29 pm, November 7th, 2006

Thanks I love it! Wario64

[edit] Transcription

On behalf of part of the wiki, nice job on editing Let us give TANKS!. You done a great jorb. DevonM(talk·cont-ribs)

Tanks! :D Trey56 22:14, 21 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] In Regards to your message

Sorry. I'll just tell him at school tomorrow to change it. PEACE, --TheYellowDart—(t/c)

No problem :) Trey56 02:39, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks and stuff!

Well, yes... but that translation is Horrible. Even I couldn't understand... It was just put in an online translator and it just gave out gibberish. I just put that as a "dummy" I got the english translation and is working on that right now.

Aha; I see. Online translators do suck — you'd think with all the modern technology available nowadays they could make better ones... :) Trey56 03:37, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

One might think so, but even our English-English stuff doesn't work. Try putting a semi-colon in a sentance in Microsoft Word... and see how terrified it gets. Green squily line and a "hey, get that outa here." I R F 23:03, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

That reminds me of a talk I attended by Kurt Vonnegut, who ordered us never to use semicolons; in his opinion they're androgenous (he used a stronger word there) punctuation marks that can't make up their mind one way or the other... Trey56 23:17, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Kurt Vonnegut is pretty old now, I didn't realize that he was still alive. I R F 23:22, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, he was pretty old four years ago or so when I heard him talk; he was talking about his friends dying and going to heaven. But what else can you expect from the president of the American Humanist Association ;) Trey56 23:27, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

So it goes. -- Tom 00:19, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, he made a lot of clever comments like those :) Trey56 01:13, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] HELP!!

Um, I tried to upload a .png file for my sig and this message keeps coming up: "The file is corrupt or has an incorrect extension. Please check the file and upload again." I keep trying again and it doesn't work... and you're not a sysop?!?! WELL YOU SHOULD BE!! Very Seriously, TheYellowDart—(t/c)

I can think of a couple reasons why you might be getting that message. One thing that might be happening is that there's something weird going on with the .png part of the filename (for example, the file thinks that it's suppressing the .png, but the rest of the name is FILENAME.png, so that the actual file's name is FILENAME.png.png). So, I would try fiddling around with that part of the filename. If that doesn't fix it for you, you might have to try taking the screenshot (assuming that's what it is) again. Hope this helps, Trey56 21:32, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Um, actually I converted a Marshie icon file (.ico) thst I downloaded off of H*R to a .png. It may be corrupted now that I think about it. But the funny thing is, when I open it (let's say I use the program PAINT) it works. Hmm... TheYellowDart—(t/c) Merry Christmas!

Hmm...I'm not sure what the problem is. If you direct me to the .ico file, I'd be happy to convert it to a png file and upload it for you. Trey56 05:55, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for trying to help...

Thanks, but I was fixing the problem on my user page at the same time you were... the page said "someone else has edited this page before you...". Isn't that a weird coincidence? Anyway, it's really late, and..... I hope they finish that LOGO DISCUSSION soon. Geez. TheYellowDart—(t/c)

No problem... just providing some technical assistance, although I hadn't realized that your addition of the userboxes was so recent. I just stumbled across your page and noticed they weren't right, so I fixed them. Sorry for the edit conflict :) Trey56 06:58, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

Trey, you own, dog. TheYellowDart—(t/c) P.S. Come to my talk page. There's a heated conversation going on...

Looks like it cooled down by the time I got there — laters :) Trey56 07:33, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Great Jorb!

Nice transcript, buddy. --TheYellowDart—(t/c)

Thanks :) Trey56 22:37, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Got some ? Marks for you

Hey Trey, um, I was wondering..... do have a Nintendo DS? If so, what games are good for it? I just got one for Decemberween, (yeah for some reason I'm not telling you, I got to get my gifts early this year...... ah, childhood...) and I need some advice on games. Reply to this on my talk page. Well, talk 'atcha later, TheYellowDart—(t/c). High fives all the way, man.

Hm...lemme think. I'll reply on your talk page. Trey56 03:54, 21 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Go here. Like, right now

This website www.linerider.com! Trust me! Go to it, enjoy it for a few minutes, and give me some feedback on my talk page. IT IS THE BEST THING ON THE INTERNET SINCE HOMESTAR RUNNER. Bowing to you, --TheYellowDart—(t/c) December 28, 2006.

Replied :) Trey56 07:29, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Help out

• Hey, I'm thinking about creating a new page, but I don't know what to call it and I don't know all of its info. The page will be about interuppted names Strong Bad usually starts sounding out before getting interrupted by someone. Such as in bottom 10: He says, "and the number one spot in my bottom 10 is... Th--" and then gets interrupted. Please help out. I am sending this to all sysops... and you. --TheYellowDart—(t/c)

[edit] Spoken Article Question

Hey Trey. I noticed you did a few Spoken Articles. They are in a .ogg extention. What program can I run them in? TheYellowDart—(t/c) P.S. Check out some funny videos on my userpage.

A lot of people use VLC. By the way, I had never heard of .ogg files till recently either — apparently, wikis like to use them best. High fives, Trey56 01:53, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Interesting. Anyway, thanks, and uh, I think .wav format would be a lot less stressing! TheYellowDart—(t/c)

[edit] Thanks! A ton, man!

Thanks for contributing a ton to my wiki project about adding DVD info (templates) to toons and sbemails that have been released on a DVD. You da-man! TheYellowDart—(t/c)

No problem :) Trey56 04:24, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 68.145.103.189 = Addict 2006

Well, I'm here! --Addict 2006 22:50, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Hey hey — welcome to the wiki! (see here) Trey56 22:57, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

I guess you've been following me around, right? Anyway, I think your challenges are too hard. I'm no fan of all NES games and stuff. I just know Bubble Bobble. I think. --Stuff and stuff, Addict 2006 18:28, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, they are hard, although I would say that this last one was by far the most difficult. If you look through the image history, you'll see that they're not all as difficult: some are easily recognizable to people who have played those games, some have text in the picture that can be searched for on Google, and many can be found through vgmuseum.com. As for following you around, no, not really, but I do pay attention sometimes when I see your name in Recent Changes. High fives, Trey56 19:36, 23 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Have You Seen This?

Have you looked at this? I thinked it'd be good to have you as a editor of that wiki, seeing as how you're a fellow nintendophile...-LordQuackingstick 01:45, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw that! Looks like it could be helpful wiki — are you a user there? I probably won't join right now — the last thing I need to do is get hooked on another wiki :) But I'm curious, what is that wiki going to encompass? Raw data about the systems and games only, or walkthroughs of games too? I'll be keeping my eye on that one; I've often wondered why there wasn't a Nintendo wiki... Trey56 01:49, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

I have utterly no idea what it will encompass, because there's practically no finished articles and few users, so editing is needed. Also, take a look at the Zelda one. That one's more active. I'm a user on both under the name "Enviroinments." Ha! Get it?-LordQuackingstick 01:53, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, that's clever — something that I'm sure the other Zelda fans will appreciate :) Trey56 01:57, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Homestar Desktop Buddy

Strong Bad would never approve of this, and neither do I. Please look here for details and post a reply on my talk page. Not here. Or you could post a comment on my blog if you want. --Doesn't care so long as more info is placed not here, Addict 2006 18:19, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
