Jump to: navigation, search
Ding! Trogdor is a featured article, which means it showcases an important part of the Homestar Runner body of work and/or highlights the fine work of this wiki. We also might just think it's cool. If you see a way this page can be updated or improved without compromising previous work, feel free to contribute.

Why shouldn't this be a disambig? It's perfectly ideal; there's a character and song with the same name. --Gafaddict 02:04, 1 Apr 2005 (MST)

True... but I dunno, it seems that the character might be expected more than the song... but it's pretty close, so I agree. If others said the character is more expected, then we'd make this the character and hae a disambig link to the song.

I've restored the page and I will add a disambig link at the top for the song. The Character is clearly more popular than that song, and I know of several external sites that link to "Trogdor" expecting the character page. -- Tom 18:54, 2 Apr 2005 (MST)
So that's how it works. I'll remember that for the future. --Gafaddict 19:09, 2 Apr 2005 (MST)

[edit] Sightings

Why are there so many "sightings" here? Normally character pages just have fun facts, not sightings... Aurora the Homestar Coder 17:36, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Good question. All of the sightings are (or should be) covered in Sightings, so I see no reason they should be here. —FireBird|Talk 17:15, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] First Apperence Trogdor

I think we should make a page for the first Trogdor Strong bad drew. I has had two apperences! User:Stongbah

Er... we do. It's located at Trogdor. —FireBird|Talk 17:13, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
I think Stongbah is referring to The S is for Sucks. Which, as you can see, also has a page. Aurora the Homestar Coder 17:36, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

[edit] More info

This page really needs more info. For such a popular part of H*R, it's not got alot of info. Heck, Trogador has more info, and he's never even been on the site. I mean, it's already 11:30, and I'm going to bed. But... yea, it could use more info from somebody. Just WHAT to say, I'm not sure. But more should probably be said. 'Nuf said. Thunderbird

E.L. cool has just brought it up to featured status. Go E.L.! - KookykmanImage:kookysig.gif(t)(c)(r)
I don't think it should be featured yet. There's some more info to be added that I don't know/couldn't find. Like stuff from Everything Else DVD and more. Elcool (talk)(contribs) 13:16, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

I agree. I was looking for info about a mention of Trogdor on Buffy, but I couldn't find it.

[edit] Sprites!

Maybe homestarrunner wiki ought to mirror this stuff??? --NERD42  email  talk   h²g²  pedia  uncyc  04:51, 14 January 2006 (UTC)


Can someone PLEASE find me whatever it was that was on that link? The site went down and I was planning on making a Trogdor side-scroller. --Inner turbolence 02:01, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Burning Question

Hey, how did Trogdor get his oun game and who made it? It's not the Cheat. I know that much. AND TROGDOR COMES IN THE NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!

Basically, TROGDOR! was created by Videlectrix, a multi-dollar fictitious video game company that makes most of the games on the site. The brains behind the company are The Brothers Chaps wearing fake mustaches, and their friend Jonathan Howe, the Flash programmer for the Homestar website and Videlectrix games. – The Chort 18:17, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
That's not what I mean. I mean who in the series, not in real life. I know who made it in real life. So maybe it's like the Compy guys? Or (this is a long shot) The Poopsmith is really a part-time game designer? No. Then the game would have whatsit all over it. AND TROGDOR COMES IN THE NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT! 18:12, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Fictitious means not in real life. -- Tom 18:19, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, but Trogdor isn't real. He's a game, a miniature clothing line, and a character in the H*R world. This would have been created by The Brothers Chaps. Beyond that, we have no idea what you're asking. — Lapper (talk) 18:21, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I know this is a long dead question but I think he means as in, Strong Bad, The Cheat and Strong Mad were playing this on an arcade machine in some short that I can't remember and he's asking who in the H*R universe made the game. I would say Videlectrix because they appear to make all the games in Free Country. --~ SlipStream 10:41, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Other dragons.

I've noticed we counted Coach Z and Strong Sad's drawings as alternate Trogdors, so why don't we mention DAGRON and Taster's Choice dragons that Strong Mad and Homsar made? 71.212.91.220 23:39, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] WoW

I just noticed that there's a character named Master Smith Burninate in World of Warcraft. Worth a mention if not already? Dementedc 20:49, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

If this is so, it would make it a sighting. — Defender1031*Talk 20:53, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
Excellent idea, good sir or madame. And I see someone's already noticed. Good.Dementedc

[edit] ASCII Troggie

There is an ASCII Art picture of Trogdor here: http://www.telltalegames.com/community/blogs/id-556. I tried pasting it into the page, but it was way too big. I still think we should get a picture of it, though. Any ideas? Uzi-Bazooka 16:44 CST

Why should we get a picture of it? We don't post fanstuff except when TBC post it. --Jay v.2024 (Auld lang syne) 22:45, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
Well, it is a Telltale posting after all, so at least there should be some consideration given to its merit, since their people collaborated with TBC and TBC's people, you know? --Stux 22:51, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
Okay, I admit that I posted that before looking at it (I thought it was on the forums at first glance). I still don't feel we need a picture of it, but I'll let others weigh in. --Jay v.2024 (Auld lang syne) 23:51, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
I think we should just wait a few hours for whatever surprise they are planning, and link to that blog post from the Fun Facts. Elcool (talk)(contribs) 04:24, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Name

How did they come up with his name? Wolf O'Donnel 20:35, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

According to the dragon commentary, there was no thought or decision put into it. Matt just said the name and they decided to go with it. Gfdgsgxgzgdrc 03:32, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
