[edit] PIZZ v. Pizz?

The title of the pizza place on Strong Bad's box says "The PIZZ", so should this page be moved to The PIZZ ([1])? Homestar-Winner (talk) 23:35, 25 September 2007 (UTC)

Trogdor? I'd assume that The Cheat just cap'd all of the letters so it'd stand out, like Pepsi does in their logo. TTEchidna 00:05, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sever your leg please

In that Easter Egg mentioned in the article:
... It can be seen at http://virtualpizz.biz/about.html, is titled "No Probalo!", and reads: "Hey look, you found an Easter Egg! ...and that's all I got. Sever your leg, please." The "Please" leads to the Homestar Runner website.
it says the lines "Sever your leg, please". I'm guessing this is a reference to the short film about the whale restaurant. Was this email created before or after that toon mentioned before? If this sbemail was created before it, could the whale restaurant be a fast forward, and should it be mentioned in the article? --71.58.29.180 01:36, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

The website is not made by TBC and therefore the mention of its existence is enough. We don't document references made by anyone other than TBC. — Defender1031*Talk 01:38, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

Well, actually, we do, but they're on there own pages. --69.150.85.66 01:54, 29 January 2009 (UTC)

I would, in the future, like to see this article contain more about the actual restaraunt, less of the fansite. Overall, though, exellent post.

[edit] Broken link

A fan created a website at http://www.virtualpizz.biz shortly after the Strong Bad Email pizza joint was released. It contains only the VirtualPizz.biz logo, a "Login" button that links to pizza joint, and an Easter egg which has links to both the Welcome Page and a Stats page. It can be seen at http://virtualpizz.biz/about.html, is titled "No Probalo!", and reads: "Hey look, you found an Easter Egg! ...and that's all I got. Sever your leg, please." The "Please" leads to the Homestar Runner website.

I happened to discover that this link no longer exists. I really don't see any good reason to try to describe a page that no long exists. I moved the text here to preserve it for posterity, but it keeps reappearing in the main article. Li'l help over here mebbe? --Periodic Table Greg 18:38, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

The fact that it no longer exists doubles the reason to describe it in my mind. — Defender1031*Talk 18:56, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

I'm with DeFender. If it was still up, not describing it in detail would at least be excusable; it's not official TBC, and anyone can look at it themselves. However, it's not still up, so no one can look at it themselves, at least through the front door. --Jay (Talk) 18:59, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

I'm not really sure what you guys mean. It work fine for me. StrongAwesome 19:42, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Hey, you're right. And:

"The fans at the Homestar Runner Wiki are dedicated. The 'Pizz goes down for less than a day and they had the full report."

is on their "about" page. --Jay (Talk) 19:46, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Wow! It's back! --Periodic Table Greg 20:31, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

The fan link described below no long seems to work. I moved the verbiage here.--Periodic Table Greg 13:04, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

FYI, I was the fan that created the site at virtualpizz.biz. I don't have any intention of renewing the domain or putting the site back up! Bigmattyh 00:43, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
