==Transcribing Easter Eggs==
Why was some of the dialogue removed from the Transcript? I thought that easter eggs that required just sitting around and waiting were expected to be placed in the Transcripts. --[[User:TheNintenGenius|TheNintenGenius]] 12:00, 11 Oct 2004 (MST)

OK, since nobody has answered this query, I've done some looking around on the Wiki and have now become quite confused. Apparently, while the official transcription policy says that all easter eggs are not to be transcribed, quite a few old sbemail transcriptions contain the transcripts of Easter Eggs that require you sit at your computer like a good boy and wait, including the transcripts for [[caper]], [[theme park]], [[cartoon]], [[the process]], and [[lunch special]]. So, which is it now? --[[User:TheNintenGenius|TheNintenGenius]] 17:23, 11 Oct 2004 (MST)

:We transcribe everything.  The non-clickable eggs (just sit there and it happens) go in the Transcript, the clickable ones go in the Easter Eggs.  This was kind of discussed [http://www.hrwiki.org/index.php/HRWiki_talk:Standards#Since_when_do_we_not_transcribe_easter_eggs.3F here], but never really gone over.[[User:Tom|<nowiki></nowiki>]]  --  [[User:Tom|Tom]] 18:01, 11 Oct 2004 (MST)

::That's what I thought. Restoring the axed text now. --[[User:TheNintenGenius|TheNintenGenius]] 18:16, 11 Oct 2004 (MST)

* 'The author of this email signed it with "Simcity". Simcity is a popular city-making game series by Maxis and EA Games.' That's currently on the Fun Facts.. but I don't know what they're talking about, the email is signed 'Justin Corcoran'. Is this fact relevant? -- [[User:Mithent|Mithent]] 12:00, 12 Oct 2004 (MST)

== Song ==

What's up with Homestar's song?

== Solid state? ==

I know I'm like a year late here, but... the remark about "solid state replacing vaccum tube technology" may be incorrect. In this particular context, "solid state" means "no moving parts". For example, a USB harddrive and a USB memory stick are both storage devices. The memory stick is solid state, since it's just a bunch of microchips, whereas the harddrive is not solid state, as it uses a spinning platter and mobile read-write heads. "This is funny, you see, because the so-called Solid State boots apparently use a large and noisy vaccum cleaner motor, which is definitely not solid state technology."

:Thank you for your comment. I've integrated your points into the revised Remark:

*Solid state refers to transistor electronics, vs. old vacuum tube technology. In the '50s through perhaps the mid-'70s (which seems like it might be the period from which the boots came), manufacturers would stamp "solid state" on their various devices, signifying that they were state-of-the-art. These so-called "Solid State" boots apparently use a large and noisy vaccum cleaner motor, which is definitely not solid state technology.

:Feel free to change it further if you think it needs it. {{User:Thunderbird L17/Siggie}} 18:07, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

::I've twiddled it slightly to "vaccum tube or mechanical technology". That oughtta do it. [[User:207.96.8.128|207.96.8.128]] 18:15, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

== Invisible arms? ==

Could Homestar having a rope tied around his torso be a possible argument for invisible arms vs. telekinesis? Normally a rope in that position would only be useful for restraining the arms. Or maybe Homesar is just so stupid that he thinks he's tied up anyway. [[User:DumbMuscle|DumbMuscle]] 10:41, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

:You could add that argumant in [[Lack of Visible Arms]]. {{User:E.L. Cool/sig}} 11:57, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

== Black Eyes ==

After the power goes out, Strong Bad's eyes loose their green color in the dark even though in the next scene they're normal again. Is this a goof or just me? --[[User:Sabra|Sabra]] 07:16, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

== Deathtrack ==

Mike comments that he can't remember if it's Activision or Dynamix which came out with Deathtrack - it was both. Dynamix developed it, Activision published it (and so, put their name prominently on the box). The Fun Fact at the bottom goes on about the Atari, but Deathtrack was a DOS game released in 1989.
