Did anyone notice that you can download and edit the XML files to create new levels?  This could be good for the Fanstuff Wiki, if anyone gets it working.  --[[User:Ed smildE|<font face="tw cen mt">E<small>D</small>S<small>MILDE</small></font>]]

- Care to share where they are? :) --[[User:AndrewNeo|AndrewNeo]] 18:05, 22 Mar 2005 (MST)

Well, I think you have to edit the flash file to get them to work offline first (which is not too hard).  They are at:

[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.1.1.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.1.2.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.2.1.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.2.2.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/levelData/level1.3.3.xml]
[http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/stinkogame.swf]

Those are the ones I found in my temp folder (even though I didn't get to those levels).  If you go to ''View'' -> ''Page Source'' in Firefox, you can kinda figure out how it works (maybe).  --[[User:Ed smildE|<font face="tw cen mt">E<small>D</small>S<small>MILDE</small></font>]]
''Edit:  Darn, the links don't work.  They are in some other folder.  Once I figure out the folder name, the game will work offline.  And they don't show up on Google yet.''

Ooh - found it - They're in another folder called "levelData."
[[User:Ed smildE|<font face="tw cen mt">E<small>D</small>S<small>MILDE</small></font>]]

-As a note for other people wanting to edit, you need to get the 5 level files, the main swf, and the object library: [http://homestarrunner.com/stinkogame/objectLibrary.swf]. (You can see some game graphics if you view that file)

It's a pretty simple almost-XML format, I'm making a level editor for it now.

:Woah. New enemy in that library. If anything confirms another set of levels coming up, that would. --[[User:Shadow Hog|Shadow Hog]] 15:07, 23 Mar 2005 (MST)

:Hey, I was just about to make a level editor for it, but it probably won't be very good.  [[User:Ed smildE|<font face="tw cen mt">E<small>D</small>S<small>MILDE</small></font>]]

:Hey, if you decompile the flash file for the game you'll see there is already a level editor in there on the script for sprite 761.  Unfortunately I don't know anything about flash, so I don't know what to do with that, or how to get to it, but someone must.

== Weird glitch. ==

My brother's a big fan of this game. One day, long ago, we we're checking out the Continue Menu, and ALL THE LEVELS WERE THERE!!!!
My brother noticed the strange thing that happened, and swore that he didn't make all this happen. He didn't have a clue of what was going on. Then I thought, ''This is obviously a rare glitch. I didn't do anything.'' So now when I see "stinkoman level <#>!" on the
main page, I go the game and click "CONTINUE" and I check it out. Pretty cool, huh? I'm just wondering if anyone else expierenced this glitch. --[[User:oopsyoubwokeit|oopsyoubwokeit]] 20:14, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:That's not a glitch. Everyone can access all the levels, at all times. The only time when levels were hidden was when there were only three. {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 20:19, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)
:: Well, also, you can't access stage #.2 until you beat #.1. But you can access all of the #.1s at any time. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 20:20, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)
:::Right, forgot about that. {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 20:22, 12 Jul 2005 (UTC)
::::Oh yeah, and when a new level is released, the previously released one's .2 is now accessible. - [[User:oopsyoubwokeit|oopsyoubwokeit]]
I see. That's probably also why my grandmother's computer has it too.  Oh welll. List of levels my brother hasn't beaten yet:

Levels:

*5.2 (It's pretty hard, my brother can't get though the uptants in a row)

*7.2 (My brother has beaten this level at grandmother's, but when we came back it was gone.)

*8.1 (For some reason, it came out today. My brother can't play it because he's still asleep. That, and the computer can't access the game.)

*8.2 (Ditto.)

Bosses:

*Tampo (Even if it's the first level boss. it was supposed to be easy.)
*Nebulon (If you can't beat the .2 level, you can't see/beat the boss.)
*The Liekand (He has seen it, though.)
*An Ice Machine (Ditto with The Leikand.)
*Unnamed Boss (For the reason he can't play Level 8.)

G'bye. --[[User:oopsyoubwokeit|oopsyoubwokeit]] 13:17, 1 Aug 2005 (UTC)

*Well, TBC are assuming you've beat all the levels so far, and doesn't want good players to get frustrated at playing the levels all over again each time stinkoman updates. --[[User:Gooblies|Gooblies]] 00:56, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)

Let me get ths straight. You were able to gain access to all of the levels? How did you do it? Were you able to get to level 10? -[[User:Lotionman|Lotionman]] 07:51, 18 Sep 2005 (UTC)Lotionman
: This is 100% normal. You can reach stage 1 of every level no matter what, at least, since level 4 was released. Of course he wasn't able to get to level 10. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 08:10, 18 Sep 2005 (UTC)

oopsyoubwokeit, the name of that "unnamed boss" was Ekersby.
==Fall and die?==

I'm playing a web version (from i-am-bored.com), and all that happens is that Stinkoman falls down the screen and dies, no ground, no bosses, WTF is going on?

Don't even acronym swears, and just use the one of Homestar runner.com  those web ones are unrealiable.  {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}}

:My guess is that they only saved stinkogame.swf without the levelData or externalSwf files. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}}, 02:48, 3 August 2005 (BST)

::how can a normal person (like me) save everything onto their (my) computer?--[[User:StrongBad110990|StrongBad110990]] 18:19, 9 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:::Get the files and follow the directions on the page: [[Stinkoman 20X6 Source Files]]. I did and can now play the whole game offline. [[User:NFITC1|NFITC1]]

:Your best bet is to download [[User:phlip|phlip]]'s Stinkoman 20X6 Cheat Program, then run nocheater.html. You can find it [[Forum:3336|here]]. It's a lot easier than grabbing a list of links from [[User:Venusy#Complete list of files used to mod Stinkoman 20X6|somewhere]], and saving them into the appropriate folders. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}}, 19:53, 9 August 2005 (BST)

:Look for Venusy's Complete list of files used to mod Stinkoman, then download all those files. And another thing; don't use WTF. Use WTC. It makes you sound more like a true Homestar Runner fan.

: I had this happen in the middle of the game while playing from homestarrunner.com . I was at the level 1 boss, Tampo (the giant brain). I had 2 lives left. I died. When it started over, Stinkoman fell and kept falling. And the game was over. Must've been some kind of glitch I guess.--DrPepperMD 9/24/05.
: I belive I have an answer to why this happens (not 100% sure though), I first saw/played the game on a new(er) computer and it workd fine, but when a tryed to play it on an older computer (that had an out of date flash version) there was no ground. prehaps the version of flash that was the current version when this came out supported the ground that prevented you from falling. just a though.-[[User:Anonomys|Anonomys]] 00:46, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
:: I've had this happen to me as well, even on fast computers.  It seems to be mostly random, but the only place it ever happens is when I'm fighting a boss. - [[User:KieferSkunk|KieferSkunk]] 18:10, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

==Strange Storyline==
Well, the storyline's kinda getting dull since Pan-pan was kidnapped. Almost all the levels 4-10 is/will be about rescuing pan-pan (and starting level 7, 1-up too. ) TBC, this is an awesome game, but the story... --[[User:Gooblies|Gooblies]] 14:06, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)

:Stinkoman is emulating 8-bit platformers. "Rescue Pan-Pan" IS the story. {{User:Homestar Coder/sig}} 15:01, 3 Aug 2005 (UTC)

== ...The new punching?! ==

Who else here doesn't like the new punching?? - [[User:C.Olimar788|C.Olimar788]]
:heh? what do you mean by "new punching"?-[[User:Anonomys|Anonomys]] 00:55, 19 October 2005 (UTC)
::"New punching" ''means'' the fact that the 'flying fists' now shoot straight and don't disappear! The only thing that bothers me is how freaking hard it is to kill the my benj. Other than that, I think it's pretty cool. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 03:56, 3 November 2005 (UTC) (P.S. Are all you're discussion edits on the 19th of October, Anonymous?)
:I don't really like the "new punching" because it is almost impossible to kill the my benj. Also because you only get to have 3 shots on the screen so it's just very annoying when you need to shoot a boss and you have to wait for the shots to leave the screen and then you'll lose your chance to shoot the boss and you might get attacked. {{User:Tampo/sig}} 02:33, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

:I'm pretty sure you read it in an old discussion of the page - where an admin said that no fanstuff related ''pages'' and ''fun facts'' should be made. (i.e. a guide to custom levels; a factoid on how you can do something with a cheat version) - '''''[[User:Joshua|<font color=green>Joshua</font>]]'''''
::If I remember correctly it was a sysop edit summary just a few days ago, but if you really want to add it again, I'll stop reverting. {{User:Some HSR themed username/sig}} 19:00, 16 Sep 2005 (UTC)

We don't link to fanstuff because (1) as a knowledge base, we should only list official sources as external links, (2) we don't have any real info on fanstuff nor do we have any control of its content, and (3) if we allowed person A's fanstuff on this page, then we'd have to allow the fanstuff of persons B, C, D, E, and everyone else on all the other pages, and that is not the point of this wiki, nor should keeping up with and policing things like that be one of our chores. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 06:46, 17 Sep 2005 (UTC)

You're Insane, man! I liked those links! Besides, Trogga and Joshua are right! Those links were useful, Fanstuff or not! -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:The cheat version may be bad, but the custom levels are public fanstuff from multiple users, and I think they should stay. - '''''[[User:Joshua|<font color=green>Joshua</font>]]'''''

Any glitches that can only be accessed with the cheat version or in custom levels should be treated like out-of-the-frame glitches in the toons - they were not intended to be seen by the public, so there's no reason to allow for them. That is, if there's something that happens because something is not specifically catered for (eg 1-Up kicking a Stafulter) it should not be mentioned here (though it could be mentioned on the [[HRFWiki:Stinkoman_20X6_-_CHEAT_VERSION#Quirks|fanstuff entry's page]]). If there is something intentional that can only be accessed this way (like the cabbage enemy was) then it should be mentioned, as a remark or as appropriate on another Stinkoman 20X6 page. Linking to the custom levels here would in my mind be the same as linking to [[HRFWiki:Other Character Email|Other Character Email]] or suchlike from the [[Strong Bad Email]] page, and would easily set a precedent for every fanstuff (or even just each category of fanstuff would be bad enough) being linked to from the H*R thing it was inspired by. {{User:phlip/sig}} 17:09, 17 Sep 2005 (UTC)

But what's the point of (fanstuff) interwiki links if we're not going to use them? {{User:Trogga/sig}}

Yeah, if we're not supposed to link to fanstuff, then, ''Oh! Why don't we'' '''blow the fanstuff link off the face of that side template thingy''' if we're "not supposed to link to fanstuff"! See? it's ridiculous!! Take ''that'', It's dot com! -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:There's a difference between "linking to the fanstuff site from this site" to "linking to a fanstuff page ''from an article'' on this site" - the ''articles'' are supposed to make a ''knowledge base'' containing ''facts'' about ''H*R''. However the site as a whole contains the knowledge base, the forum, the fanstuff, the chat channel, etc... so links between them ''outside the articles themselves'' are still good. {{User:phlip/sig}}

:Take it easy, FaceCrap. It's not an extremely good idea to talk like that. &mdash; {{User:Lapper/sig}}

:Yeah, I guess not. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

So,''anyway'', if no one's said anything against the Fanstuff links for days, why hasn't somebody put them back? I would, but if it were a good idea to, somebody probably would've already. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:I am against putting the fanstuff links there.  People should just visit fanstuff themselves. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 14:05, 24 Sep 2005 (UTC)

::Well, you ''can'' just go to the external links part of the side template, true, but it might be easier to have direct links on the bottom of the page. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]]

:So what, we have to be actively posting here all the time saying "I still don't want the fanstuff links there" after the discussion seems settled? OK, to make it explicit: I think they should not be there, and I will continue to think they should not be there until such a time as I specifically post saying otherwise. Until then, take it as read that I am posting here regularly saying they should not be there. {{User:phlip/sig}} 16:02, 24 Sep 2005 (UTC)

I feel that having fanstuff links would only be kinda like linking to the forum. I also think that the custom levels might be kind of like linking to the home-made or other character e-mails, but the cheat version still seems good. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 20:56, 19 May 2006 (UTC)

I don't think the fanstuff should go completely unnoticed... those are some useful cheats! -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 04:23, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

== Level 8 ==

I know people have commented on the whole level 7,-0,9 thing. I think I has the solution. After Level 10, TBC are likely to go back and do a level 8 as somewhat of a lost level. I'm dissapointed there was no swimming level, so this might be where it comes in ( Level 10 defenitely won't be such a level.

==Easter Eggs==

:I know it wouldn't do much, but to help clean up, couldnt we move the easter eggs onto the levels in which they're on? For instance, for the "snot bubble" easter egg, couldnt we just keep that on the "Oh! The moon!" page? --{{User:Bubsty/sig}} 21:11, 1 Oct 2005 (UTC)
::I don't think we need the snot bubble one there. We already recorded it on [[Stinkoman 20X6 Playable Characters]]. - {{User:Joshua/sig}}

== Stinkoman Labels ==

Personally, I think there should be some kind of consistency among the level titles.  If we are to change the level 8's to level -0's, we should do that throughout the entire page and not just to one of the titles.  I changed it back because, having two dashes -0-9 doesnt' exactly look pretty, and it would look even worse if we had (-0)-9, as I had seen once before (if my memory serves me right).  Please accept my apologies but I will change it back to the way I had it for the aformentioned reason. If it is deemed better to have all level 8 labels turned into -0 label, then it should be done across the board. Thanks.--[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:36, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
:My vote is too change all '''-0''' tags into '''8'''s. I find the -0 title confusing when being used among other levels. This is probably especially true for newbies. 8 is just much simpler. And it's not entirely inaccurate either - Level 8 ''is'' called Level 8 in the Stinkomanual. - {{User:Joshua/sig}} 17:41, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
:: But the ''game itself'' calls it Level -0. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:47, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
::: To me that says that the game creators (that would be TBC) both call it level 8 and level -0. However, my first issue still stands: ''consistency''.  Having several titles call it level 8 and only one or two (or even half) level -0 is inconsistent and looks bad. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:50, 13 October 2005 (UTC)
:::: Do we have titles that call it level 8? --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:52, 13 October 2005 (UTC)

== The shadow ==

:anyone thinking about who the end boss is going to be?-[[User:Anonomys|Anonomys]] 00:59, 19 October 2005 (UTC)


Ya, proably a Japanese Coach Z. there is s HRWiki article that mentions this.- Not currently a user, 11:02pm, 9th November 2005 (AEST)

Though I have a feeling it's so obvious that it's Coach Z, it might not be Coach Z at all. Just a theory. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 17:53, 24 November 2005 (UTC)

I think that it is Coach Z. In some of the cartoons, Coach Z is represented like that (I cannot remember where). When he was, he looked extremely similar to the end boss. 
-Zyborg

Maybe the final boss is an armored Sticklyman. After all, maybe only the cape and armor are shadowed, and the "hat" may be some kinda visor.
:I changed my mind. I do think the Shadowy Figure is 20X6 Coach Z. On the fanstuff wiki, he has many names relating to Coach Z, like "Emeperor Z" and the popular "Master Z". In a Stinkoman comic called "Stinkoman 20X6: The Second Wave" he is called "Evil Z". I do think it is just 20X6 Coach Z, wearing sholder plates and a cape. His sprite is avalible in "Make-O Your Own Stinko", but it has no cape.

== Messy Page ==
The whole fun fact section of this page is a mess. I'm thinking we need to delete some facts, maybe move some pages, stuff like that. Like individual boss fun facts chould go in their own section in the enemies page. And I think a page should be set up of a list of all the "Try Level" "Game Over" and "More Levels To Come" scenes. - '''''[[User:Joshua|<font color=green>Joshua</font>]]'''''

:It is a bit messy. I'll try sweeping the floor.
:...
:But seriously, yea. Too much info. We need to have a [[garage sale]] or something. I'll maybe try to do a bit of work on the page. Probably a few more Fun Facts subsections are needed, as well as maybe an 'updates section', for the little things they change every time they update. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 04:07, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)

::The fun facts should be split into levels wherever possible, and a bunch of other changes. I was kinda waiting for the game to be finished before proposing any radical alterations. &mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 04:12, 8 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:Would it be okay to remove all of the "when the game was first made, it was like this. it was later changed" type messages? Shouldn't the guide just talk about how the game is now?--DrPepperMD

::We have precedent for keeping records of when things change, but that's mostly because the toons and such don't change often - this game changes regularly... Perhaps split them off to yet another page? I'm willing to do that now if there's no objections. {{User:phlip/sig}} 03:56, 25 Sep 2005 (UTC)
:::I had another look - I don't think there are enough "in a previous version..." facts to warrant its own page, but I still don't think they should be removed. Perhaps group them all together under a "changes" heading or something... {{User:phlip/sig}} 11:10, 25 Sep 2005 (UTC)

:'''Hi!''' I have two points I'd like to talk about (sorry, I'm not really mentioning anything new).
:*This TALK page is indeed still messy. I think we should archive ''again'' everything except the Closed (STUFF), XML and couple of most recent (like level 9) conversations.  Oh! and this section of course.  I'd do it, but um, I hate to ask... how do you archive things again?
::*The Main page has its archives broken in pieces of 20, and has its own template and everything, I think this talk page merits that kind of organization.
:*Um yeah the page is kinda bloated. I was thinking making actual ''level'' pages for most stuff (we already have the walkthroughs, which the level pages can point to) like [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] suggested. I think it's doable at least for the early stages, and since the game is presumably nearly complete.  That or Real World references should have its own page.  So what should it be, individual level pages or Real World references? :D
::*Organizing the page now, will save us the headache of updating it later, when it's even more bloated.  Adding to a new infrastructure isn't necessarily that much harder.
: Thank you guys for your time!

:I have reorganized some of the sections, is it clean enough to remove the cleanup tag? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 02:24, 2 Oct 2005 (UTC)

::It is not even close to being clean.  You have been doing a '''great''' jorb on this, but it is still to big for its own good.  We should probably take out the updates and break the FFs into smaller sections. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 03:23, 5 Oct 2005 (UTC)
Some good examples of shortening is that we need to make either A: A Big Fun fact page or B: Seperate articles for all the facts and references.

== Separate Fun Facts Page ==

I have a (possibly controversial) suggestion: why not move *all* of the Fun Facts section to its own page?  It is big enough to merit it, and that way we can leave the Stinkoman page short and clean. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 08:56, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

On another note, can the Closed STUFF have its own independent page? It has its own page now which is inserted as a template to make it look like the way it was, since I didn't know if it should be kept here for easy access.  I was thinking it could be prominently displayed in the Archive Nav bar. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 08:56, 29 October 2005 (UTC)

:You know, I was thinking that we should move all of the fun facts to an independent page.  But STUFF'd facts having there own page, and still being displayed here is over kill. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 13:26, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

::Ok. I just didn't know if there was any reason for the STUFF to be visible immediately from the main talk page. Note that this is the same way STUFF is injected into the main STUFF page. As for the FF, if other ppl think it should be done then I'll go ahead and do it (later). --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 17:29, 30 October 2005 (UTC)
:::I still think that FF could use it's own page, anyone else agree? --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 04:27, 3 November 2005 (UTC)
::::I think having some sections say ''See Main Article: linky'', while some have the facts.  It looks inconsistent. {{User:Rogue Leader/sig}} 21:00, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

It is only a sketch and this was the most concise and attractive version i could come up with. I [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202399&oldid=202396 played with different alternatives] and like this one above the best. The [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202396&oldid=202395 original facts] section would have looked like [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202394&oldid=202391 this] in the page (sorry for the glowy box, i'm kinda fond of it). The one above would look something like [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&diff=202409&oldid=202405 this].  I also just noticed that the <code><nowiki><h4></nowiki></code> tags don't hide the TOC, just mess it up a bit (i remember running into that problem before), and so I would need to change those to <code><nowiki><div font></nowiki></code> tags in order to eliminate them out of the TOC, yet keep their size intact.

==Rival and Stinkoman MM7 game==
Do you think that Stinkoman is going to get a rival? If so, it would be funny if its sprite was an edit of Bass's. 
It would be cool to have a new Stinkoman game with Megaman 7 graphics. It could even have a parody of the MM7 plot (Stinkoman's rival does a horrible attempt to trick Stinkoman into being his "friend", and Stinkoman easily falls for it) the Stinkoman version of Rush would be The cheat and Treble could be a rival The Cheat (The Cheat is a The Cheat, according to "Origins" and other sources"). This is just my idea. 
-Zyborg

==Marzipan Character==
I think it would be awesome to play a Marzipan character who "floats" like Princess Toadstool in Mario Bros 2. Or maybe the pompom character could be like Kirby? Perhaps those ideas would be better suited for 20X6 II or maybe a Homestar Runner side scroller. - {{unsigned|12.158.72.52|03:27, 17 April 2006}}

To answer, we look to the power of numbered lists:

#The Brothers Chaps don't steal ideas.
#There is a [[Pom Pom]] counterpart already, his name is [[Pan Pan]], and he is the basis of Stinkoman 20X6's story.
#As for [[Marzipan]], here is a [[20X6 Marzipan|slightly abandoned idea]].
#Five.
#20X6 II? The first one isn't even finished. And screw a new Homestar game.

:#True. So maybe Pan Pan could be this "pompom character". Although I don't think he'll float...
:#Yes, and she could appear again, as some kind a roll edit possibly.
:#Evif.

Here's my second idea. Level 10's boss is the Shadowy Figure/20X6 Coach Z, and he fights using a laser sword. After you beat him, there should be like a "Level Final" where the Shadowy Figure/20X6 Coach Z is in the Z-Wing(the name I gave to the Coach Z ship on the games menu), and he's trying to make a getaway. Is this better?

A third idea. Shadowy Figure/20X6 Coach Z with laser sword like Idea#2, but this time, when you beat him, he reveals this 4-legged mech that looks like something Dr. Wily from Megaman yould use, called the Z Machine(considering he is 20X6 Coach Z). Well, the Z Machine would have 3 forms. Form 1 just has 4 legs, Form 2 would have no legs, but would have 2 mechanical arms and would float about. Form 3 would just be the hovering Z Machine without arms or legs. This idea is a good one.

Or maybe like a boss recap; where all the boss fights from the previous worlds would be fought in order (with frequent health power-ups between battles), and it ends with the Shadowy Figure battle concepted above. Seems like a good idea to me.--[[Special:Contributions/64.91.158.52|64.91.158.52]] 18:40, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

==Is Level 10 Ever Coming?==

Apparently so. I just stumbled across this in the forum, figured I'd bring it to the wiki if it's not already here yet, since it seems somewhat legitimate, what you might glean from an interview or the like, in the form of an [http://forum.hrwiki.org/viewtopic.php?t=5995&start=69 email from Matt to Power Crunch]:

<blockquote>And don't sweat Stinkoman level 10. It's coming. For real. Our<br>
programmer guy moved away a year or so ago so it's been harder to put<br>
games together but we've got level 10 all figured out and hopefully it<br>
will rule.</blockquote>

So that's always a plus. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 23:41, 17 October 2006 (UTC)
::I am in fact, Power Crunch on the forum.  And I in fact, apologize if that's confusing.  But I in fact, must say, that if you'd like to read the whole letter.

<blockquote>Hey Daniel,
Sadly, we probably won't ever get a talking Homsar. The toys were all a 
pretty big pain in the butt to get made and cost a buncha money. I did 
recently find this awesome company that makes the little voice box type 
things for talking plush dolls:<br><br>

http://www.gmkmg.com/recordable_products.htm<br><br>

So if you happened to be able to sew or knew someone who could sew, then 
you could make a Homsar, stick one of those voice boxes in him and put 
your fav Homsar jams on it. I know that's kind of a ridiculous thing to 
suggest but I just thought of it cause I want to make a musical stuffed 
Epona (Link's horse from Legend of Zelda) for my brother's baby that 
plays Epona's Song when you squeeze it.<br><br>

And don't sweat Stinkoman level 10. It's coming. For real. Our 
programmer guy moved away a year or so ago so it's been harder to put 
games together but we've got level 10 all figured out and hopefully it 
will rule. We're also working on a big adventure game like Peasant's 
Quest except more like the Lucasarts point n' click style games. And 
this one will feature the actual characters from the website, not made 
up characters like Thy Dungeonman and Peasant's Quest.<br><br>

High five and thanks for writing.<br>
Matt<br>

Yeah it's pretty cool. --{{User:Bleed0range/sig}} 23:52, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Wait a second. Why would it be a problem that Jonathon moved away? He could still code the games as long as he had contact with TBC and an Internet connection. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 00:57, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

So once the Brothers Chaps get a new programmer guy, we can expect Level 10 to come really soon? That's good to hear. At least we get to know what the really long holdup was.

==Loading screen==

"When you click it, "loading manuél" appears briefly."

I WILL FIND THE USER WHO WROTE THIS AND ASK HIM IF HE IS ASKING FOR A CHALLENGE!! Shouldn't it say, like "When you click it, the text "loading manuél" appears briefly." --[[User:Marvelrulez|Marvelrulez]] <small>(Left [[HRWiki:Standards#Do_sign_your_Talk_posts|unsigned]])</small>

Well, Marvelboy, the "quotation marks" signify that it's text appearing. But, hey, there's always [[HRWiki:Standards#Be_bold.2C_but_know_when_not_to_be|being bold]] and making the change yourself. --{{User:TotalSpaceshipGuy3/sig}} 20:28, 16 December 2006 (UTC)

To Marvelrulez: Calm down. [[sugarbob|Do you know how many Internet etiquette laws you're breaking by typing in all caps like that?]] Well, you're breaking one: Don't type in all caps. - {{User:Gtxm78/sig}} 13:23, 11 August 2007 (UTC)

== Continute ==

You expect this game having to let you skip levels? Well, I say that is cheating! I expect NO cheaters allowing to make this game, even if it takes me 40 days and 40 nights! What kind of garbage makes no passwords acquired to activate CONTINUTE, huh?
- From a loyal, somewhat etiquette fan, {{User:Viklas/sig}} 21:00, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

:Stinkoman uses [[Wikipedia:Local Shared Object|Local Shared Objects]] to store where you're up to in the game, so you can leave and come back and Continute still remembers where you are. One of the restrictions of LSOs is that they're restricted to one URL - when the game moved to a <code>/v2/</code> subdir, it could no longer access the continute data from before. Thus TBC had two choices &ndash; either force everyone who's beaten the game to beat it again every time a new level comes out, or let them start from the new level wherever they were up to before. They understandably chose the latter, because the former would be much more annoying. If you consider it cheating, feel free to not use the feature, and play the game from Level 1.1 every time; I'm not stopping you. {{User:Phlip/sig}} 03:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

::Look, man, I TRIED to get to Level 9.2, but appearently, I can't unless 9.1 is completed. -{{User:Viklas/sig}}
:::So then beat level 9.1...  {{User:Bassium!/sig}}

== Object Library??? ==

What exactly is the object library? Whenever I click on the link it just takes me to one of two things. Either the shield ally sign in the top-middle of the screen, or the sign to the  slight left-top of the screen and a half of and of those "Uptant-Octopus" things on the top-edhe of the screen. What gives?--[[User:Kirbychu HR'D|Kirbychu HR&#39;D]] 01:01, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I don't know. The object library used to be filled with stuff. Now, it's just... those things. Donno what happened. -[[User:FaceCrap|FaceCrap]] 15:30, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

== Level 10 ==
Looking at this week's [[Weekly Fanstuff|fanstuff]], does anyone else think that TBC are giving us like, a hint at something? Kind of like how [[shapeshifter]] linked to [[Strong Bad Gameways|SB GWs]], which was a preview for [[Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People|SBCG4AP]]? {{User:DevonM/sig}}

In an e-mail I sent to Strong Bad last week or so:<br>
"''PS: When is Stinkoman level 10 coming? We're already waiting three years!''"<br>
But with all the gazillions of people that e-mail Strong-o Bad-o there must be at least 100 that ask when Stinkoman Level 10 is coming. So I dunno, maybe it did the trick. [[User:AlmsforthePudgy|AlmsforthePudgy]] 14:35, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

Oh yeah, I think you mean [[Sketchbook]] instead of [[Weekly Fanstuff]]. [[User:AlmsforthePudgy|AlmsforthePudgy]] 14:45, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

:Yeah, I do. {{User:DevonM/sig}}

== Fighting and Challenge! ==

:This isn't really the place to ask about that. The talk pages on this wiki are for discussing article content. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 21:21, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

== Object library ==

What happened? I went there and there's a sign that says some thing on it and half an octopus! But as far as I know, the things are still there, I decompiled it.--[[Special:Contributions/72.93.240.37|72.93.240.37]] 23:06, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

== Sprite Sheets ==

Anyone know if they exist?  [[Special:Contributions/173.32.221.240|173.32.221.240]] 04:46, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
:Some people used to have sprite sheets available on the fanstuff wiki, but they're currently unavailable. Your best bet right now would be either decompiling the game (probably especially the object library) and making your own, or the [[Make-o Your Own Stinko]] game, in which various character poses already exist as stamps. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 04:53, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

== Weirdest Glitch ==

I went to level 1 and I couldn't move, jump, or shoot! I tried level 2 same thing! It happend on every level! Except 4 I couldn't move jump or make the rocks fall! Has this happend to anyone else?
