IMHO. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 07:46, 21 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :It's at [http://www.hrwiki.org/skins/monobook/headbg-kb.jpg www.hrwiki.org/skins/monobook/headbg-kb.jpg], 1250 pixels wide and 24kB large. My screen is 1680 pixels wide, and I don't think I noticed the [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=HRWiki:Sandbox&amp;oldid=571751 awkward tiling] until now. I don't think we should make the image wider. It will increase the file size, and who knows when the next user comes with an even wider screen. But yeah, a version that repeats seamlessly ''would'' look better and might even reduce the file size. Having said that, I don't think it's too important to change, either ;-){{User:Loafing/sig}} 10:50, 21 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Also, the image right now is 523 pixels in height. I don't think many HRWiki'ers use 800x600, so its height could be increased too, by adding to the sky... and there's plenty of sky to work with. That would make the field visible on the screen for longer. And having an increased-size jpeg can't be ''that'' much bigger. But unlike any given article image, I guess it is a file that's loaded by thousands more people so maybe that little increase could be a big deal. Anyway, a tiled background wouldn't be entirely authentic to TBC's work but could still make sense. And yes, I know it's not too important to change it, but I'm always [[User:OptimisticFool#WANTED|asking]] for a challenge (of the image variety).

Another one is [[Talk:bedtime story#Gummi vs. Gummy|gummi/gummy]]. Has the broad subject of consistency in spelling been brought up before? I think it kind of goes in the category of flavor/flavour, as well. Another one that comes to mind is y'all/ya'll. So, do we or should we have a page to list our &quot;decisions&quot; regarding spelling, with its accompanying talk page available to reach a consensus for each of these and others? {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 23:02, 3 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Such things would probably go under [[HRWiki:Manual of Style#Spelling]]. &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 23:32, 3 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::As a general rule, we spell it like TBC do.

Because it's annoying to see that I can still add '''Homestar Runner Wiki (English)''' to the search engines list (The search box also says a new search engine can be added even though I've already added this engine.) You can always bring it up over at Mozilla.com's bugzilla or something, but I'm sure the bug will immediately be marked as invalid. I'm also sure they'll mark it as an invalid enhancement, and state that &quot;The website can shorten its name, there's NO reason why it isn't possible for them to shorten that name.&quot;<br /> <br /> For instance, Why not use HRWiki as a name? {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :I don't get why it should annoy you. That being said, there's no reason for the wiki to shorten its title to something less descriptive just so you can have the full name in your search bar. If you care so much, download the source code to firefox and change the code yourself. As for the &quot;Add Homestar Runner Wiki (English)&quot; still being there, that happens with all search engines. Go to any site that you already have on that list, it will do the same thing. Basically, none of what you said has anything to do with us. {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 23:42, 17 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4qX8bZASFNA I have to disagree] with the very last statement there.

Anyone else thinks this should be put as fanstuff? Because it's not a part of the official homestarrunner.com site. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :This differs from fanstuff, as this is an official licensed Homestar Runner game (like the long-delayed [[Homestar Runner RPG]] or the appearance of &quot;Trogdor&quot; in [[Guitar Hero]]).

Besides, dozens upon dozens of users say Vista is crap for Gaming. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :::Our first run distribution is almost always through our website as downloads.

With this in mind, to what extent will we transcribe the game? I'm against the idea of recording EVERY single line for two reasons: firstly, it would be a massive job to do. Undoubtedly there'll be tens of thousands of lines of dialogue throughout the game and it'll be impossible to find and store them all. The second reason is for legal issues: it seems to be OK to transcribe toons on the website since the transcripts won't significantly affect page views to the website and the toons are free in the first place. This game, on the other hand, will not be: the point of buying and playing the game is to find the dialogue yourself. And I don't want Telltale's lawyers to hit this wiki with a cease-and-desist order if they feel our actions harm the sales of their game. However, I think it'd still be OK to write walkthroughs and post Fun Facts on the game, in a similar manner to other websites. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 19:42, 12 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :A few minor stylistic things aside, I think the best way to &quot;transcribe&quot; this game (I don't think that's the right word) would be entirely similar to [[Thy Dungeonman II]] however, without creating the companion page [[Thy Dungeonman II Messages]]. This system would give us the fun facts and the walk-through and the glitches and the tips and everything else that you would expect from The Wiki, without any of the legal or commercial issues you spoke of. I mean [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] seems to be very involved in The Wiki (at least concerning SBCG4AP), and with Telltale's consent I see no problem making a [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Messages]] page or something of that ilk (but with '''FAR''' fewer syllables). {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 08:56, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Exactly; we seem to have plenty of communication with Telltale through [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]], so I'm sure that we can make sure whatever we do is acceptable to them (and TBC). It would be nice to have everything transcribed (transcriptions of game messages aren't a substitute for playing the game, in the same way that you don't forget about watching the cartoons and just read the transcripts - but even more so, as it's interactive), but obviously that depends on their wishes. -- [[User:Mithent|Mithent]] 09:51, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::I can't see how there'd be a legal issue *period* if we thoroughly &quot;mapped out&quot; this game.

Traditionally, we've put forum links on the bottom (which in this case would include both Telltale's and ours), and material directly from Telltale at the top.

'Homestar Runner invades Strong Bad's house and Bogarts his style.' Of course, it could also be that the trailer scenes are actually a flashback.<br /> <br /> Either way, we can't be sure that the game begins with the IGN preview anymore, so I was wondering what we should do about it[[User:Gerkuman|Gerkuman]] 14:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> :I was thinking the same thing. The preview for [[Homestar Ruiner]] seems to take place before Homestar hides in the basement for indecency. From the various reviews, though, it is clear that the preview was still an early build. (For example, the GameCyte review mentions that a plot clue is found under a cardboard box in the middle of the field, but the actual game, the clue location would be more challenging.) I would suspect that Strong Bad going directly from his song to talking to Homestar is a similar splice, and nobody knows what the final sequence will be until it's released in to the wild. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 14:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> what is the url for the ign preview? and why isn't it on the wiki? --[[User:Acam30|Acam30]] 19:55, 21 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> :The IGN videos are listed under Press Releases and Promotional Videos.

(For those not in the know, downloads can be paid for by Wiis other than the one receiving it.) What I was wondering is, is this contest worthy of its own article or not? This whole development is so...other sitey...that I'm still having trouble wrapping my brain around what's Wikiable and what's not. Opinions? --{{User:Onamuji/sig}} 13:53, 5 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :I don't think so, because it's a contest, and we don't normally advertise those here (as far as I know).<br /> ::Given that there has never before been an officially [[licensed]] homestar related contest as far5 as i know, that would make it lack of precedent, not that we don't do it.

Who agrees? Zelda games do it all the time. [[User:Physicsguymonsterman|Physicsguymonsterman]] 01:00, 12 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Most of the cartoons on the site would get a T rating as well, if the ESRB system is used. I mean, just look at emails like [[lady fan]], [[sisters]], [[dreamail]], [[do over]]... plenty of suggestive themes there (without even mentioning Coach Z's problems), and the Teen Girl Squad comics probably fulfil the requirements for mild cartoon violence. The Poopsmith pretty much covers crude humour. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}} 09:34, 12 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::The ESRB ratings are: Early Childhood, Everyone, Everyone 10+, Teen, Mature, Adults Only and Rating Pending.

Undoubtably, there'll be [[Teen Girl Squad]], references to [[making out]], and maybe some [[whatsit]], [[blood]] and [[crap]].

With this in mind, to what extent will we transcribe the game? I'm against the idea of recording EVERY single line for two reasons: firstly, it would be a massive job to do. Undoubtedly there'll be tens of thousands of lines of dialogue throughout the game and it'll be impossible to find and store them all. The second reason is for legal issues: it seems to be OK to transcribe toons on the website since the transcripts won't significantly affect page views to the website and the toons are free in the first place. This game, on the other hand, will not be: the point of buying and playing the game is to find the dialogue yourself. And I don't want Telltale's lawyers to hit this wiki with a cease-and-desist order if they feel our actions harm the sales of their game. However, I think it'd still be OK to write walkthroughs and post Fun Facts on the game, in a similar manner to other websites. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 19:42, 12 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :A few minor stylistic things aside, I think the best way to &quot;transcribe&quot; this game (I don't think that's the right word) would be entirely similar to [[Thy Dungeonman II]] however, without creating the companion page [[Thy Dungeonman II Messages]]. This system would give us the fun facts and the walk-through and the glitches and the tips and everything else that you would expect from The Wiki, without any of the legal or commercial issues you spoke of. I mean [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] seems to be very involved in The Wiki (at least concerning SBCG4AP), and with Telltale's consent I see no problem making a [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Messages]] page or something of that ilk (but with '''FAR''' fewer syllables). {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 08:56, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Exactly; we seem to have plenty of communication with Telltale through [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]], so I'm sure that we can make sure whatever we do is acceptable to them (and TBC).

But should we make subsections for each? I'm trying to think of scalability at this point. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 16:40, 16 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :I think you're right, it will helpful to have them divided up into sub-sections.

'Homestar Runner invades Strong Bad's house and Bogarts his style.' Of course, it could also be that the trailer scenes are actually a flashback.<br /> <br /> Either way, we can't be sure that the game begins with the IGN preview anymore, so I was wondering what we should do about it[[User:Gerkuman|Gerkuman]] 14:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> :I was thinking the same thing. The preview for [[Homestar Ruiner]] seems to take place before Homestar hides in the basement for indecency. From the various reviews, though, it is clear that the preview was still an early build. (For example, the GameCyte review mentions that a plot clue is found under a cardboard box in the middle of the field, but the actual game, the clue location would be more challenging.) I would suspect that Strong Bad going directly from his song to talking to Homestar is a similar splice, and nobody knows what the final sequence will be until it's released in to the wild. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 14:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> what is the url for the ign preview? and why isn't it on the wiki? --[[User:Acam30|Acam30]] 19:55, 21 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> :The IGN videos are listed under Press Releases and Promotional Videos. The first two (GameVideos.com and IGN.com) have the footage you are looking for. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 21:04, 21 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Mii likey, mii likey! ==<br /> <br /> So I noticed Telltale is having a [http://www.telltalegames.com/community/blogs/id-338 contest] to design the H*R characters in Mii form and receive Homestar Ruiner as a gift on their Wii. (For those not in the know, downloads can be paid for by Wiis other than the one receiving it.) What I was wondering is, is this contest worthy of its own article or not? This whole development is so...other sitey...that I'm still having trouble wrapping my brain around what's Wikiable and what's not. Opinions? --{{User:Onamuji/sig}} 13:53, 5 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :I don't think so, because it's a contest, and we don't normally advertise those here (as far as I know).<br /> ::Given that there has never before been an officially [[licensed]] homestar related contest as far5 as i know, that would make it lack of precedent, not that we don't do it. We haven't done it because THEY haven't done it.

I'm looking forward to it too, but I'm glad they're taking the time to polish it! {{User:Trey56/sig}} 18:11, 10 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == T For Teen ==<br /> <br /> Ok we were all surprised it got a t ranking but i bet they TellTale did so on purpose and made the esrb think it was worse than it really was for the moneymaking t rating. and mild suggestive content (if it is not a telltale tall tale) is probably something like saying home run or some other extremely mild euphism. Who agrees? Zelda games do it all the time. [[User:Physicsguymonsterman|Physicsguymonsterman]] 01:00, 12 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Most of the cartoons on the site would get a T rating as well, if the ESRB system is used. I mean, just look at emails like [[lady fan]], [[sisters]], [[dreamail]], [[do over]]... plenty of suggestive themes there (without even mentioning Coach Z's problems), and the Teen Girl Squad comics probably fulfil the requirements for mild cartoon violence. The Poopsmith pretty much covers crude humour. --{{User:Venusy/Sig}} 09:34, 12 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::The ESRB ratings are: Early Childhood, Everyone, Everyone 10+, Teen, Mature, Adults Only and Rating Pending. As you can see, Teen is the most suitable rating since the game probably contains &quot;contain violence, suggestive themes, crude humor, minimal blood, simulated gambling, and/or infrequent use of strong language.&quot; (The PEGI equivalant is 12+.) Undoubtably, there'll be [[Teen Girl Squad]], references to [[making out]], and maybe some [[whatsit]], [[blood]] and [[crap]]. So I'm assuming TGS is what bumped it up, unless the game contains [[Commandos in the Classroom|''very'' illegal pony fights]]. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 13:56, 12 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::: (I don't think crap would really bump it up to T considering I've heard damn it in a few E+10 games --[[User:Acam30|Acam30]] 19:47, 4 July 2008 (UTC))<br /> ::: Cartoon Violence and rude humor can be in e 10(i think tgs might fit into e actually) whatever the suggestive material is and it would have to be a little but more mature than making out is why it is teen so i think hmmm maybe telltale told theesrb that there was sug mat. even though its making out scince esrb doesnt play the games.<br /> ::::I doubt TTG would just tell the ESRB that there was more mature material than it would normally be. As for suggestive material, according to the ESRB website, minimal suggestive material (as long as there's nothing else that would give it a higher rating) can credit a E rating. Suggestive material also is descripted as &quot;Mild provocative references or materials&quot;. I'm not sure what else would qualify for the &quot;mild suggestive themes&quot;, but remember that the crude humor and mild cartoon violence might merit a &quot;T&quot; rating themselves. {{User:DevonM/sig}} 14:32, 13 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::::Yeah, just look at Brawl.

Hopefully, Telltale won't run into the same bottleneck that the Pop developers did while releasing in Europe (the game can be entirely in English, but the manual must be written in every language that can be selected on a PAL Wii's system menu).

With this in mind, to what extent will we transcribe the game? I'm against the idea of recording EVERY single line for two reasons: firstly, it would be a massive job to do. Undoubtedly there'll be tens of thousands of lines of dialogue throughout the game and it'll be impossible to find and store them all. The second reason is for legal issues: it seems to be OK to transcribe toons on the website since the transcripts won't significantly affect page views to the website and the toons are free in the first place. This game, on the other hand, will not be: the point of buying and playing the game is to find the dialogue yourself. And I don't want Telltale's lawyers to hit this wiki with a cease-and-desist order if they feel our actions harm the sales of their game. However, I think it'd still be OK to write walkthroughs and post Fun Facts on the game, in a similar manner to other websites. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 19:42, 12 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :A few minor stylistic things aside, I think the best way to &quot;transcribe&quot; this game (I don't think that's the right word) would be entirely similar to [[Thy Dungeonman II]] however, without creating the companion page [[Thy Dungeonman II Messages]]. This system would give us the fun facts and the walk-through and the glitches and the tips and everything else that you would expect from The Wiki, without any of the legal or commercial issues you spoke of. I mean [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] seems to be very involved in The Wiki (at least concerning SBCG4AP), and with Telltale's consent I see no problem making a [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Messages]] page or something of that ilk (but with '''FAR''' fewer syllables). {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 08:56, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Exactly; we seem to have plenty of communication with Telltale through [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]], so I'm sure that we can make sure whatever we do is acceptable to them (and TBC). It would be nice to have everything transcribed (transcriptions of game messages aren't a substitute for playing the game, in the same way that you don't forget about watching the cartoons and just read the transcripts - but even more so, as it's interactive), but obviously that depends on their wishes. -- [[User:Mithent|Mithent]] 09:51, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::I can't see how there'd be a legal issue *period* if we thoroughly &quot;mapped out&quot; this game.

Traditionally, we've put forum links on the bottom (which in this case would include both Telltale's and ours), and material directly from Telltale at the top.

'Homestar Runner invades Strong Bad's house and Bogarts his style.' Of course, it could also be that the trailer scenes are actually a flashback.<br /> <br /> Either way, we can't be sure that the game begins with the IGN preview anymore, so I was wondering what we should do about it[[User:Gerkuman|Gerkuman]] 14:02, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> :I was thinking the same thing. The preview for [[Homestar Ruiner]] seems to take place before Homestar hides in the basement for indecency. From the various reviews, though, it is clear that the preview was still an early build. (For example, the GameCyte review mentions that a plot clue is found under a cardboard box in the middle of the field, but the actual game, the clue location would be more challenging.) I would suspect that Strong Bad going directly from his song to talking to Homestar is a similar splice, and nobody knows what the final sequence will be until it's released in to the wild. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 14:13, 20 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> what is the url for the ign preview? and why isn't it on the wiki? --[[User:Acam30|Acam30]] 19:55, 21 May 2008 (UTC)<br /> :The IGN videos are listed under Press Releases and Promotional Videos.

(For those not in the know, downloads can be paid for by Wiis other than the one receiving it.) What I was wondering is, is this contest worthy of its own article or not? This whole development is so...other sitey...that I'm still having trouble wrapping my brain around what's Wikiable and what's not. Opinions? --{{User:Onamuji/sig}} 13:53, 5 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :I don't think so, because it's a contest, and we don't normally advertise those here (as far as I know).<br /> ::Given that there has never before been an officially [[licensed]] homestar related contest as far5 as i know, that would make it lack of precedent, not that we don't do it.

Who agrees? Zelda games do it all the time. [[User:Physicsguymonsterman|Physicsguymonsterman]] 01:00, 12 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Most of the cartoons on the site would get a T rating as well, if the ESRB system is used. I mean, just look at emails like [[lady fan]], [[sisters]], [[dreamail]], [[do over]]... plenty of suggestive themes there (without even mentioning Coach Z's problems), and the Teen Girl Squad comics probably fulfil the requirements for mild cartoon violence.

Undoubtably, there'll be [[Teen Girl Squad]], references to [[making out]], and maybe some [[whatsit]], [[blood]] and [[crap]].

The IGN interview already has a page, but I've put the [http://coldhardflash.com/2008/05/chapmans-cool-interview-for-animation-people.html Cold Hard Flash], [http://www.gamecyte.com/2008/05/08/a-chat-with-the-chaps-sbcg4ap-qa/1184 GameCyte] and [http://kotaku.com/5016138/lunchtime-with-the-brothers-chap-strong-bads-creators-speak-and-eat Kotaku] interviews as part of the game promotion list. Given the number of interviews, can they just stay in the list for the game, or should they have their own pages? (and if they stay on the page, should the IGN interview be demoted?) {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 22:03, 16 June 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Just checking... ==<br /> <br /> This is going to be announced on the main page when it's realeased, correct? I just want to make sure. --[[User:Acam30|Acam30]] 19:57, 9 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Telltale Teases ==<br /> <br /> Is it worth mentioning anywhere the fact that in their last two blog entries, the folks at Telltale have been referencing the anticipation of a release date announcement (and the continuing lack thereof)? For example, [http://www.telltalegames.com/community/blogs/id-355 yesterday's] starts with &lt;blockquote&gt;Sorry, it's still not the announcement you've been waiting for, but we've come up with a little surprise to help ease the pain while you're waiting...&lt;/blockquote&gt; {{User:GreenHelmet/sig}} 15:50, 17 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Not really. Their not really teasing us. I think they'll probably put the date up within the next week or so...they've probably been starting on the other episodes as well as working on this one, too. {{User:DevonM/sig}} 17:04, 17 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Actually, I'm 70% convinced it's comeing (sic) out on the 21st. The other 30% of me thinks it's the 28th. {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}<br /> :::Well, it has to be a Monday, and it has to be in July, so... --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 21:39, 17 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::Actually, TellTale and TBC can release the game whenever their black hearts desire to. --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 22:37, 17 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::::Neither Telltale nor TBC now the release date; Nintendo hasn't told them. Nintendo has to screen the game, then release it on WiiWare. So, Nintendo is to blame, in a way. {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}<br /> ::::::If Nintendo is to blame, it has to be Luigi. He is probably the one stopping all this. I HATE YOU, LUIGI! --{{User:Theyellowdart/sig}} 22:45, 17 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::::::That is maybe the funniest thing I've ever read on this wiki... =] {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 06:46, 4 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::::::Well, that's what happens when Homestar eats you. You tend to think poorly of him. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 08:14, 24 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::::::Of course, you're talking about the American release date. Since this is Nintendo we're talking about, the game won't be released in Europe for another five months. If at all. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 13:55, 4 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::::::::Well it's taking too freaking long, in my opinion. I do belieive it's time for some riots. I'll get the pitchforks. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 14:07, 4 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == One Monday ==<br /> <br /> Should it be noted that this shall be the last Monday in July? (Wii Shop only updates on Mondays) {{User:Lazylaces/sig}} 01:48, 24 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :New release dat: AUGUST. And I am really angry. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 14:10, 4 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::I will point out the series trailer is now available for viewing on the Wii Nintendo Channel. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 17:01, 4 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Overload? ==<br /> <br /> I just had a chilling thought. With the new game-of-fun coming out on the Wii, it would pull in alot of buyers. If I didn't know the Homestar, I'd probubly still buy such a game. And then most buyers would eventually visit the site. With this overflow of people going on the site, It may be too much for the site's compies and it may crash, stopping us from seeing all our daily doses of Homestar 'toons! Anyone have any thoughts on this? [[User: Ben Again|Ben Again]]<br /> :My sister who introduced me to h*r has told me herself that she believes no one who doesn't know the cartoons would buy the game. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 02:06, 24 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::The impression I get from the Telltale forums is the majority people buying the title are either fans of H*R or Telltale. However, that's still a pretty large group. I don't think we have to worry about hrwiki bogging down, but I think the TBC will be very happy with the financial results. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 02:19, 24 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::Even if it did have an impact I doubt it would be that big of one. Besides, TBC have gotten pretty good at handling bandwidth crunches. See [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/Flashforward_2006_Seattle_-_28_Feb_2006#A_question_about_the_Podcasts._-_Red_Toqueytr343 this] to get a small idea of just how much bandwidth they regularly use. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 06:37, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Episode 2 Info ==<br /> <br /> IGN.com has an article explaining the announcement at Comic-Con regarding SBCG4AP Episode 2. The title is &quot;Strong Badia the Free&quot; and involves protesting against a new E-mail tax. I can't link to the article now because I'm typing from the Wii Internet Channel. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 17:02, 27 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Yeah, we already have [[Strongbadia the Free|a page for it]]. {{User:Peter222/sig}} 18:00, 27 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == It Won't Be Long? ==<br /> <br /> How long does it usually take Nintendo to approve a WiiWare game? {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 04:37, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :I second that question. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 04:39, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::According to a friend in the games industry, the approval process is two to three weeks. Mid-August is a reasonable estimate at this point (11 Aug). {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 17:47, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Navigation bar for SBCG4AP episodes? ==<br /> <br /> I know we have the [[:Template:SBCG4AP|template]] for all things relating to the game, including listing all of the episodes. But would it be useful to have a navigation bar near the top where you can switch from episode, like with [[:Template:gamenav|games]] and [[:Template:toonnav|toons]]? 17:52, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Maybe when Episode 3 comes. {{User:Bad Bad Guy/sig}} 18:15, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Obviously, with only two episodes outlined, there is not enough. But we do know there will be five in this season (with possible more in the future), so it's best to start planning now. I'm just curious if it's even worth considering. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 20:23, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::I'd say it is. Of course, this doesn't mean we should jump on this immediately. A navigation bar now will have the same episode on both sides, which isn't very useful. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 20:28, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::Are you guys talking about something similar to {{t|mamnav}}? It makes perfect sense to have something like that. I don't know why we wouldn't at least be able to create it now, if not implement it. {{User:OptimisticFool/sig}} 20:52, 29 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::::Yes, that is what we're talking about. However, like I pointed out, if we implemented it now, we'd have two arrows pointing towards the same episode (kinda like if [[some kinda robot]] and [[homsar]] were the only sbemails). --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 00:37, 30 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == The Nintendo Power Article ==<br /> <br /> Does anyone still have a copy of the July issue? And should we make the &quot;interview&quot; a separate article? There were no real inside references in it besides a mention of the &quot;Adventures of Lolo&quot; by Strong Bad. --[[Special:Contributions/70.239.217.122|70.239.217.122]] 19:04, 30 July 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Wii Price ==<br /> <br /> $8.95 = How much in Wii Points? {{User:Acam30/sig}} 01:01, 6 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> :$8.95 for one episode&lt;br&gt;<br /> :$34.95 for season pass&lt;br&gt;<br /> :1000 Wii points<br /> :{{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 01:47, 6 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::So 1000 points per episode then? {{User:Acam30/sig}} 02:36, 6 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::That's what I bet. (Just for reference, 1 Wii Point equals 1 cent) {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}<br /> ::::Yea, that's right. 2000 points = $20. {{User:Acam30/sig}} 03:03, 6 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::::Then they're overcharging wii points... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 03:06, 6 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::::We're not sure that it'll be 1000, but it seems likely. 5 episodes at $10 each = $50, the price for a good Wii game right now. {{User:Superfield Credit Union/sig}}<br /> :::::::But Wbwolf just said it's $8.95 for each episode... {{User:DeFender1031/sig}} 03:14, 6 August 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::::::$8.95 is the PC price per episode, or $34.95 if you pre-order the whole series together. $30-$40 is the going price of most new PC games at this point, and $50 is the going price for most new Wii games. We're keeping our episode pricing in line with those. You can learn more from the Games FAQ on the Telltale Games site, or from the Telltale forums.

Once Strong Bad hears of Homestar's intention to win this contest, he schemes to snatch victory from Homestar's [[Lack of Visible Arms|invisible grasp]].<br /> <br /> ==Transcript of First Episode Trailer ==<br /> <br /> ''{Strong Bad and Homestar Runner are standing on a racetrack near a pool.}''<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' All right, Homestar. I'm not sure why this never occured to me before, but some French guy told me to beat you up, and I tend to think he's right. Put up your dukes!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh, hello, Strong Bad! Are you here to watch the race?<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' A race? You mean like a race-race? Race-race-race?<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' You haven't heard about the Free Country USA Triannual Race to the End of the Race?! It's only the coolest and most important sporting event in the history of sporting events I'm about to compete in ever!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' A race, eh? You know, beating you in a race would be almost as much fun as beating you senseless!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' I'd like to see you try, Strong Bad! I've been trainin' my twees off for weeks now. Besides, Marzipan has promised me a big victory party after I win!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Did someone say &quot;Pwahty&quot;? <br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Oh hecks yeah! Marzipan's putting together a ''huge'' party, with floats, and cake jugglers, and balloon manimals, and&amp;mdash;<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' And why was I, Lord High Awesome Party, occasionally known as Strong Bad, not invited?!<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' ''{whisperingly}'' Whisperingly, I don't think Marzipan likes you very much.<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' All this race talk has intrigued me.

Bye!<br /> <br /> '''STRONG BAD:''' Girlfriend troubles?<br /> <br /> '''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Not me, bro. Marzipan just wanted my opinion on the decorations. And the cake jugglers.

Put 'em up!&quot;<br /> **At three points in the dialogue, (before &quot;A race?&quot;, before &quot;Did someone say pwahty?&quot;, and before &quot;All this race talk...&quot;) a choice box appeared above Strong Bad's head. A cursor chose which topic Strong Bad would discuss the first two times, but just closed the box the third time.<br /> **The [[scoreboard]] had the initials [[Coach Z|CZ]] and [[Pom Pom|PP]] on it. It now reads &quot;OFFICIAL RACE TIMES&quot;.<br /> <br /> === Remarks ===<br /> *This is one of the few times a character mentions [[Free Country, USA]]. The last time this occurred was when Strong Bad said it in [[flashback]].<br /> <br /> === Inside References ===<br /> *Homestar previously called his butt a &quot;[[Glossary#T|twees]]&quot; in [[lady fan]].<br /> *Strong Bad's pronunciation of &quot;party&quot; matches his pronunciation in [[nightlife]].<br /> *Homestar mentions [[cake]] jugglers.<br /> *Marzipan has previously written a [[Oh yeah yeah|song]] stating that she [[marzipan|really doesn't like Strong Bad at all]].<br /> *Strong Bad mentions a [[French]] guy.<br /> <br /> === Real-World References ===<br /> *&quot;Balloon Manimals&quot; might reference the short-lived NBC drama ''[[Wikipedia:Manimal|Manimal]]''.<br /> <br /> *When Homestar is on the phone with Marzipan, the way he says, &quot;Yes?

Welcome to the Homestar Runner Wiki! I see you've already dived into some discussion about [[SBCG4AP]].

<p>TTGJake:&#32;question about an SBCG4AP-related userbox</p> <hr /> <div>PLEASE! You don't have to ask to put a userbox on the project page. Adding userboxes is discouraged at this point because of the length of the page, but if you think it's cool, go ahead and post it on the page, and if it gets deleted, it gets deleted. HOWEVER, make sure your userbox is fun and related to your personal Homestar Runner experience for the Fun userboxes, and are relevant for the other categories. POSTING SPECIFIC CITY USERBOXES IS NOT NECESSARY. Thank you for reading, and enjoy the page. --{{User:Super Martyo Brother/sig}} 02:42, 7 February 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Wikipedia User boxes ==<br /> So how are those of us who already had babel boxes on our pages, but as templates, supposed to use this? Are languages eventually going into this? {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 00:36, 7 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> :I think the templates could either be converted to generic source code like the others or tweaked to fit if they don't already. &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:38, 7 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::Meant to type &quot;tables&quot;, not &quot;templates&quot;. {{User:ACupOfCoffee/sig}} 22:12, 7 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> :::Generic source code is good. Userboxes should be versatile, so if a user wants to change a bit of text, they can do so without creating a new template. Besides, saves a whole bunch of template creations. And that's my six cents. - {{User:Super_Sam/sig}} 05:28, 8 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::::I just have a WP:Babel box and a HRWiki:Babel box. works great! {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 10:29, 8 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Fun userboxes ==<br /> <br /> I have a major concern with the fun userboxes. This is going to turn into the next user page crisis on this wiki. The ''Important'' notice at the top of the page says this: ''Please keep these boxes positive and related to your Homestar Runner experience (favorite toon, what you like to do on the wiki, etc.).'' Most of the fun boxes have nothing to do with one's H*R experience. If we let the fun userboxes continue, then decide they are getting out of hand, the opinions about what to do about them will be heavily divisive. This needs to be nipped in the bud, before it becomes a duplicate of Wikipedia's userbox crisis.<br /> <br /> So what do we allow? We could say that if you want to make your own custom fun user boxes, fine, as long they don't go on the HRWiki:Userbox page. I would rather we discourage the use of fun userboxes completely, lest some users become distracted from the purpose of this wiki. Of course, this cannot be enforced. I would, nevertheless, be pleased to see the fun userboxes go. &amp;mdash;[[User:BazookaJoe|BazookaJoe]] 23:47, 12 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> :I think we can't go overboard on the restrictions either. I really like the fun userboxes cuz they're that ''fun'' and they ARE all HR-related. What's wrong with a few inside references? This wiki is work, yes, but all work and no fun ... well you know the rest. However, the issue is that the fun category is so open ended, anyone can add a gazillion user boxes. My proposal is this: should any category, or the entire userbox page, get out of hand we can lock the boxes we have, and then put in place a proposal and voting system of sorts: if new boxes will be added, then can be proposed in a different page (kinda like Featured articles) and commented on wether they should be added to this page or not. --[[User:Stux|Stux]] 00:05, 13 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::I don't think there's any problem if people just fix it up the way they like and stick with it. Unlike Guestbooks, there's nothing requiring or even encouraging people adding to them over and over and over and cluttering Recent Changes. Plus, I didn't care for the Guestbooks much; I like these. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 00:09, 13 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> :::I think the fun userboxes are fine, as long as they are Homstar related and positive. What we ''don't'' need are negative boxes or ones that would be divisive (basically, if the subject matter wouldn't be appropriate on a user page ''outside'' a userbox (political parties, etc.), then it shouldn't go ''inside'' one either). &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 00:13, 13 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::::I see your arguments and do agree with you; fun cannot be restricted.

So perhaps we should note on the [[HRWIKI:Userbox]] page that all Userboxes must be in one section only? {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 21:27, 24 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> :Well, I don't think it's really necessary to say anything on this page. For one, how many people have more than one? And for two, there are quite a few pages out there that are invalid for far worse reasons than this. &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 01:09, 26 February 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == To the right ==<br /> <br /> Do userboxes automaticly go to the right of a userpage or do you have to make them go there yourself? -[[User:Beep|Beep]] 14:48, 4 March 2006 (UTC)<br /> :They are just like regular images.

You can test your color combinations there to see if they are accessible or not. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 21:36, 10 April 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Split Up ==<br /> <br /> This page is now twice as long as the recommended length (it is 65 kb. long and pages are recommended to not be longer than 32). Is this a big enough problem to need to split this page up? Personally, I have a DSL modem, and this page has been having some upload problems for me when somebody has made a change to it. If we need to split it up, I recommend that we put all the store userboxes to a different page. So, what does everybody else think? -[[User:AtionSong|&lt;font face=&quot;BankGothic Md BT&quot;&gt;AtionSong&lt;/font&gt;]] 17:21, 30 April 2006 (UTC)<br /> :I think they should all go on one page. That might not ultimately be practical, and so I realize they might have to be split up, but I think that should be delayed as long as possible. &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 22:56, 30 April 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::If and when they must be split up, I support the plan of making the store ones seperate. They are easily the most distinct group. [[User:Point7Q|Point7Q]] 23:54, 1 May 2006 (UTC)<br /> :::Why should it be delayed? I think it's a great idea. We should split up every kind of userbox and put them into subpages. For example, the fun userboxes would be in Hrwiki: Userboxes/Fun. Wouldn't that be a good idea? &amp;mdash; {{User: Seriously/sig}} 18:25, 21 May 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::::It should be delayed because currently it's still more convenient to scroll through one page than to try and navigate through split-up pages. &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 05:12, 22 May 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Location Userboxes ==<br /> <br /> It seems to me that the [[HRWiki:Userbox#Location|Location userboxes]] violate the &quot;related to your Homestar Runner experience&quot; requirement. At very least, I think that instead of linking to Wikipedia (e.g. This user lives in '''[[Wikipedia:Texas|Texas]]'''), they should link to a 'toon that is related to that location (e.g. This user lives in '''[[weird dream|Texas]]'''). This shouldn't be too hard, since most locations are covered by the [[Strong Bad Email By Place|senders of Strong Bad Emails]]. Anyone agree? {{User:Trey56/sig}} 02:18, 7 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> :It has long been accepted to say where you are from (in normal text) on your user page. I therefore don't have any problem with a userbox to that effect. I'd like to find a way for us to find a generic way to list just one on this page, that way we don't have to list every variation here. &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:25, 7 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::I see your point, and it's a good one. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 02:33, 7 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> ::There are also userboxes indicating one's age, and that in no way ties into Homestar Runner either. But I think those and these fall into the category of helping the wiki. People in different age groups and in different geographical locations will bring different experiences to the wiki, and so knowing this about a user helps us to work together. One could also argue that knowing whether a user wears [[long pants]] or has [[Spin 'n Say|more than two problems]] isn't terribly meaningful to the work here at the wiki. I'd say that those are acceptable because they reference the work we're documenting, and the former are acceptable because they provide demographic info on the people with whom we work. {{User:Qermaq/sig}} 02:26, 7 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :::Yours is a good point too. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 02:33, 7 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> ::::Trey56: I see your point about linking them to a specific toon, but that seems kind of complex and in most cases a bit of a stretch. &amp;mdash; [[User:It's dot com|It's dot com]] 02:28, 7 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :::::Yes, it is definitely more work; and as you said above, it would be nice to put one generic userbox on this page instead of 50+ different ones. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 02:33, 7 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :What about something like the following for a generic location userbox?<br /> <br /> {| border=1 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=5 style=&quot;border-collapse:collapse&quot;<br /> |- bgcolor=#eeeeee<br /> !

'''People using nothing but userboxes as means of presenting infromation about themselves on their user pages.'''&lt;br&gt;<br /> Userboxes are a colorful, quick and easy way to present the simplest info about yourself. Where you are from, what you like to do, what part of the website you like most and so on. Although there is nothing wrong when using them, even long &quot;towers&quot; (as they are being called) of userboxes is alright, but I pesonaly think they should be supplemental material of the user page. What do I mean by that? That I think a user page should ofcoarse be composed of whatever info the user want to reveal about himself. Any other info that just doesn't fit on the textual side of tthe page could be moved to the color-coded, easly recognizable userboxes. For example, when I go to a user page and see an orange userbox, I know that this user like the character presented inside it the most, when I see a green userbox I know that the user own one of the T-shirts found in the store, etc. This is the one benefit of userboxes as I see it. It is somwhat a pet-peev of mine to see almost nothing but userboxes on a user page. I don't want to take drastic measures about it, but just bring it up for discussion to see what the community thinks. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 14:12, 16 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> :I think that users have the right to choose whatever they want on their pages. Perhaps they do not want to spend too much time or reveal too much information about themselves and userboxes are a good alternative or maybe not. If users want to put userboxes on their page, how many, and what else is on the page is their choice. But I feel like the userboxes are not harmful even if tehy are the only thing on the page. -[[User:AtionSong|&lt;font face=&quot;BankGothic Md BT&quot;&gt;AtionSong&lt;/font&gt;]] 16:26, 16 June 2006 (UTC)<br /> ::I'm not saying that they break any user page guidlines or that it shouldn't be allowed, but every user can have his or hers own opinion, and that was mine. {{User:E.L.

I dunno, maybe this page can be presented in a better way, but I've gotten it started. <br /> <br /> On the other hand, I don't know if the Telltale page is going to be around permanently, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to have the transcripts backed up on somebody's computer... {{User:Trey56/sig}} 06:33, 21 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :Oh, one more thing: in case anybody's wondering, this ''is'' being written by TBC [http://telltalegames.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4986]. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 06:34, 21 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :Way ahead of you on the backup thing.

I believe [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/StarFox_%28SNES%29 Starfox (SNES)] was also such a reference. Although yes, SB was referring to the N64, the N64 wasn't the first Nintendo System to be made to display 3D Polygons. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> : You misunderstand. The N64 was made specifically to display 3D Polygons; the SNES just simply had the capability, which often required extra graphics chips on the carts themselves. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:41, 15 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> : And for the record, one of those graphics chips I mentioned was heavily advertised when Star Fox came out: the Super FX chip. It was also used in a few other first-party Nintendo games that utilized 3D graphics (even Yoshi's Island, though YI's 3D graphics were much rarer than Star Fox's. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:43, 15 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> ::Didn't SB reference the SFX Chip? o_O {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> <br /> ::: Yes, I suppose he does. My point, however, was that the SNES wasn't really capable of much 3D on its own - the Super FX chip is on the games themselves. Other than that, best it could do for the most part was Mode 7 (the Final Fantasy airship example you mentioned was Mode 7), and Mode 7 could only make backgrounds look kinda 3Dish. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:26, 15 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> ::::All Mode 7 can do is turn a background into a 3d-ish ground... completely flat. The only things that can &quot;pop-up&quot; from the ground are sprites which can be scaled or darkened and moved to give the illusion of distance. Play the original Super Mario Kart for a good example, where sometimes it is hard to see the walls of the map until you have already hit them and stopped. Or play Mario Kart Super Circuit for the GBA which uses the exact same effects as a base. This is a far cry from the Super FX chip which allowed for true 3D (see Starfox or the leaked Starfox 2). In-console support for 3D would come for Nintendo with the Nintendo 64. --[[User:70.104.78.138|70.104.78.138]] 21:42, 15 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == smoother animation ==<br /> <br /> Is it just me or does strongbad's mouth and head move smoother then normal in this cartoon...

They are not compatible with the x86 of Windows PCs. Furthermore you will note that Flash has different installers and binaries for each OS: Windows, Mac, and Linux. Because of this it is simple to come to the realization that specific versions of Flash would also need to be compiled for the DS and the Wii.<br /> <br /> ::Since the Wii allows for channel updates it is possible Opera will release updates for their browser on that platform along with an updated Flash binary. They already updated the Flash support once to allow for USB keyboard input (I don't believe this is documented), although they might not have had to actually change the Flash binary itself for that.<br /> <br /> ::Flash is owned by Adobe and so there might be contractual issues between Opera/Adobe/Nintendo that would interfere with efforts to distribute updated versions of the Flash client software (although they don't seem to have any hesitation about doing it on PCs).

The same thing would count towards things like [[Strong Bad Gameways]] or any of the [[:Category:Interviews and Public Appearances|live appearances]]. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 17:33, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Yup, exactly right. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 17:43, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::Besides, it's mentioned on the official Homestar Runner site! --{{User:Jay/sig}} 17:47, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::Game News Soon doesn't direct to anything, so it may not be possible this is the same thing. But whatever. '''Close this mess.''' {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :::::The news isn't supposed to be revealed in full for another hour and forty-five minutes. Keep your pants on, for real. Anyway, it's fairly obvious that this game and the notice on the site are related. --{{User:Jay/sig}} 18:16, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == Info For you! ==<br /> <br /> Intrepid editors may find [http://www.telltalegames.com/strongbad/faq this page] helpful. It's not 100% done yet but since we're running late we wanted to get something up with more info. --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 22:22, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :Heyyyyy, the whole site is up now! --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 22:52, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == And you can play too! ==<br /> <br /> Too bad this game can't be played by me. Not everyone's good enough to get a Wii. Although the article says it's also for the PC, I highly doubt that will be a reality. It makes me so frustrated when new consoles come out. Especially onces that cost over 200 USD, when I could get something productive (Like Photoshop CS3 Extended) for 320 USD. Which I ''will'' get 'cause I have no Wii. Why not get the wii, you ask? Because I want my damnz photoshop! Been entirely too long since I last had it. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :It will be out for the PC. Guaranteed. --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 23:13, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::What retailers will you be distributing to? Target? Wal-Mart? If it's K-Mart, I advise against it. Madison, WI has '''no K-Marts whatsoever'''. Also, will it be good for only Vista? Because I can't switch to Vista, my computer won't allow me to upgrade my BIOS to do so. Besides, dozens upon dozens of users say Vista is crap for Gaming. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :::Our first run distribution is almost always through our website as downloads. With Sam &amp; Max, we released the games as downloads and then once the whole season was over we assembled a disc and offered it up free to season subscribers. Not sure if that's what we're doing for Strong Bad (nobody tells me anything fun), but they will be available to download from our site. And no, they won't be Vista only. Our system spec is pretty generous in fact, so it shouldn't require too new and crazy a computer. --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 23:18, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::Do you expect people to buy over the Internet only? Or are the downloads free? Because I somewhat despise Internet purchasing. Of course, I do have a Debit Card (Sorry, will never, ever use a Credit Card) if I so need to do an online transaction. But I haven't used the card in over 4 months. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :::::It sounds like Tabacco answered this in his last post: they'll certainly be available for download, but if that's not an option for you, it's possible that they will be eventually released on disc format. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 23:24, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::::Some sites require you to pay for certain downloads though. Like &quot;Adobe Extend.&quot; {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :::::::Yep, this game will cost money, just as the exclusive DVD content does through the Homestar Runner store. It's good too; I've often wondered if there was a way for TBC to make some money off of their games! Fans have been able to support them by buying DVDs for a while, so I think this is great. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 23:30, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::Still awaiting answer for if we ''have'' to buy over the Internet, or if we can send in check/money orders. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :::::We also accept Paypal and Wire Transfer. You can use the latter if you like. --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 23:42, 10 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::::You stil didn't say if I can use check or money order though; I will only use them. If you can't do money order / etc. it's better off not to purchase. Not everyone likes the Internet... I'm sure not liking it anymore... I've been distancing myself from it more and more. {{User:Iyeru/sig}}<br /> :::::::No, we don't take checks or money order. You sound pretty determined not to purchase, so I'm not sure why you're so insistent on pushing the issue, honestly. I think we can call this closed. --[[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] 00:01, 11 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> ==New trailer on GT==<br /> Ok so on Gametrailers.com They have a new trailer for it!!! check it out [http://www.gametrailers.com/player/32715.html] {{User:Coach B/sig}}<br /> :Actually, that's the same thing as [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Gameplay Trailer|this]]. {{User:DevonM/sig}}<br /> <br /> == Legal Rampage Issue ==<br /> <br /> Transcripts are at the heart of our wiki, allowing us to have a reference guide for Homestarrunner.com and to save us the hassle of sitting through an entire toon to check a line or scene. With this in mind, to what extent will we transcribe the game? I'm against the idea of recording EVERY single line for two reasons: firstly, it would be a massive job to do. Undoubtedly there'll be tens of thousands of lines of dialogue throughout the game and it'll be impossible to find and store them all. The second reason is for legal issues: it seems to be OK to transcribe toons on the website since the transcripts won't significantly affect page views to the website and the toons are free in the first place. This game, on the other hand, will not be: the point of buying and playing the game is to find the dialogue yourself. And I don't want Telltale's lawyers to hit this wiki with a cease-and-desist order if they feel our actions harm the sales of their game. However, I think it'd still be OK to write walkthroughs and post Fun Facts on the game, in a similar manner to other websites. {{User:The Chort/sig}} 19:42, 12 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :A few minor stylistic things aside, I think the best way to &quot;transcribe&quot; this game (I don't think that's the right word) would be entirely similar to [[Thy Dungeonman II]] however, without creating the companion page [[Thy Dungeonman II Messages]]. This system would give us the fun facts and the walk-through and the glitches and the tips and everything else that you would expect from The Wiki, without any of the legal or commercial issues you spoke of. I mean [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]] seems to be very involved in The Wiki (at least concerning SBCG4AP), and with Telltale's consent I see no problem making a [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People Messages]] page or something of that ilk (but with '''FAR''' fewer syllables). {{User:Flashfight/sig}} 08:56, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::Exactly; we seem to have plenty of communication with Telltale through [[User:Tabacco|Tabacco]], so I'm sure that we can make sure whatever we do is acceptable to them (and TBC). It would be nice to have everything transcribed (transcriptions of game messages aren't a substitute for playing the game, in the same way that you don't forget about watching the cartoons and just read the transcripts - but even more so, as it's interactive), but obviously that depends on their wishes. -- [[User:Mithent|Mithent]] 09:51, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :::I can't see how there'd be a legal issue *period* if we thoroughly &quot;mapped out&quot; this game. If there *was*, [http://www.gamefaqs.com/ GameFAQs] wouldn't exist. Furthermore, I've seen numerous &quot;Game Scripts&quot; there. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if someone beat us to it. [http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/wii/data/945803.html Exhibit A] -{{User:YK/sig}} 05:03, 14 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::::Second. There's stuff on GameFAQs that's [http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/gamecube/file/920182/33006 much more in-depth] than is sane, even for us. Plus, we transcribe DVD-only content all the time, and TBC don't mind. And since TBC are working so close with Telltale, I doubt they'd let them sue us either. --[[User:DorianGray|DorianGray]] 05:20, 14 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> Related note, what about the Dev Blog! &quot;written&quot; by Strong Bad on the Telltales Games site? Any plans of documenting that on the Wiki? There could be a whole mess of running gags hidden in that... {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 20:23, 17 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> ::That is in fact written by Strong Bad. Well, it's written by [[TBC]], who have free reign over that portion of the site.<br /> <br /> == New gameplay/interview video ==<br /> <br /> There's a video [http://www.gamevideos.com/video/id/18383 here] showing off some of the gameplay (including [[Snake Boxer V]] footage), as well as an interview with some of the developers (I assume this is new, I didn't see it mentioned on the page anywhere). I think IGN are going to interview TBC about the game tomorrow, but I'm not sure... --{{User:Venusy/Sig}} 12:07, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> :On a related note, it looks like the [http://kotaku.com/378793/telltale-games-demos-strong-bads-cool-game-for-attractive-people-for-wiiware Kotaku] review of the game demo has some more detailed information that was is revealed in the Game Videos piece. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 18:03, 13 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> == External link organization ==<br /> <br /> Since it looks like this game will produce a large number of external links (IGN et al. game reviews, material from Telltale, forums), how should we organize them? Traditionally, we've put forum links on the bottom (which in this case would include both Telltale's and ours), and material directly from Telltale at the top. But should we make subsections for each? I'm trying to think of scalability at this point. {{User:Wbwolf/sig}} 16:40, 16 April 2008 (UTC)<br /> <br /> :I think you're right, it will helpful to have them divided up into sub-sections. I liked {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Strong_Bad%27s_Cool_Game_for_Attractive_People&amp;diff=557820&amp;oldid=557810 what you did}}, but I tried {{p|l=http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php?title=Strong_Bad%27s_Cool_Game_for_Attractive_People&amp;diff=557824&amp;oldid=557820 reorganizing it a bit differently}}. Not sure if it's optimal yet; maybe we'll have to wait to see what kinds of external links we end up getting as it's released. {{User:Trey56/sig}} 16:53, 16 April 2008 (UTC)</div>
