'''@ronginald''' was a [[Social media|Twitter]] account operated by [[Matt Chapman]] from September 3, 2011 until January 22, 2013.
 +
 
 +
The account was first noticed by fans when {{w|Pendleton Ward}} [[:File:Matt portrait Pen Ward.jpg|posted a portrait of Matt]] and identified @ronginald as "the voice of [[Strong Bad]]"; though the account had not tweeted at this point, later posts made it clear that it was indeed owned by Matt Chapman.

At the time, [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] was on [[Hiatuses#2009 - 2013: The Big Hiatus|an unprecedented hiatus]]: though the site had historically seen weekly updates, [[H*R.com updates 2010|only three new toons were produced in 2010]] and [[H*R.com updates 2011|none were released in 2011]], leaving fans doubtful about [[homestarrunner.com|the site's]] future. In his tweets, Matt reaffirmed that he and [[The Brothers Chaps|his brother]] [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] were not done with Homestar Runner, hinting that it would be updated "sporadically" in the future. He also discussed [[The Brothers Chaps' Side Projects|his then-current projects]], including writing, directing, and acting for ''{{w|Yo Gabba Gabba!}}'', ''[[Gravity Falls]]'', and ''[[The Aquabats|The Aquabats! Super Show!]]''. Matt also occasionally shared behind-the-scenes information and images from both Homestar Runner and other projects.

The account was closed on January 22, 2013, which resulted in the deletion of all its tweets.

The Twitter account was closed on January 22, 2013, which resulted in the deletion of all its tweets. In April 2013, an unrelated fan registered the @ronginald account and occasionally tweeted, making it clear that they were not affiliated with Homestar Runner. An official Chaps-run Twitter successor is the account [[@StrongBadActual]], created in 2011, which [[@StrongBadActual Tweets 2014|started actively tweeting in 2014]] in-character as [[Strong Bad]].

#needlesslycryptic

@ronginald was a Twitter account operated by Matt Chapman from September 3, 2011 until January 22, 2013.

The account was first noticed by fans when Pendleton Ward posted a portrait of Matt and identified @ronginald as "the voice of Strong Bad"; though the account had not tweeted at this point, later posts made it clear that it was indeed owned by Matt Chapman.

At the time, Homestar Runner was on an unprecedented hiatus: though the site had historically seen weekly updates, only three new toons were produced in 2010 and none were released in 2011, leaving fans doubtful about the site's future. In his tweets, Matt reaffirmed that he and his brother Mike were not done with Homestar Runner, hinting that it would be updated "sporadically" in the future. He also discussed his then-current projects, including writing, directing, and acting for Yo Gabba Gabba!, Gravity Falls, and The Aquabats! Super Show!. Matt also occasionally shared behind-the-scenes information and images from both Homestar Runner and other projects.

The account was closed on January 22, 2013, which resulted in the deletion of all its tweets.

[edit] Explanations

  • The @ronginald handle was re-registered in April 2013 by an unrelated individual. In an early post, they clarified that they are a fan of but unaffiliated with Homestar Runner.

[edit] Inside References

  • The name "Ronginald" is a reference to the comic Ron Planet, co-created by Matt Chapman. In the 22nd strip, the protagonist's nickname of "Ron" is mistakenly assumed to be short for Ronginald rather than Ronald.
