Where did you get your theme

Mods, are you all cows

yes im a cow.

yes i play games.

Something I just noticed. Troll names have six letters in both first and last names. Andrew Hussie has six letters in his first and last name as well.

Fascinating

~Mod T

I've just got to say, you guys are awesome for dealing with all this shit so calmly. I love this blog to death, it really got me interested in the theory and facts part of Homestuck. Love you guys so much~ Stay awesome. :3

You’re welcome lovely anon, it’s always a pleasure

~Mod T

having six letters in the first and last name is said to be a sign of the devil

• Andrew Hussie has six letters in his first and last name
• He has control over things with pointy horns
• He kills a lot
• He put Homestuck on hiatus just before Act 6 Act 6

We figured it out kids, Hussie is Satan.

~Mod T

Would you consider queuing up a bunch of old forgotten facts for people who either weren't following back then or have forgotten them again? You could tag them as #oldfacts or something for the people who don't want to see them.

That sounds like a nice idea.  I’ll get on that.

black list #oldfacts if you don’t want to see those.

~Mod T

I'd just like to point out that on page 89 of your blog, you stated that Vriska was fluent in morse code. Now, in her song Cobolt Theif from ColoUrs and Mayhem, there is a bit in the song that, in MOSRE CODE, that it says "Please save him." . Just wanted to point this out through my broken TaVris feels.

Fascinating

~Mod T

Re: Cobalt Thief - the song was originally a Serenity song, and is thus referring to WV, I believe.

Fascinating

~Mod T 

Both Eridan and Cronus seem to forget to use their quirks sometimes, with Cronus randomly swapping his wv's for vw's, and Eridan just not using his.

Now for Cronus please view this post X

Eridan stops using his when he’s being serious to show he’s not messing around. As you can see in this X

~Mod T

Someone seems to be feeling sassy today, Mod T. (And I love it.)

Thank you, I try my best.

~Mod T

Dad is pipefan413, right? If I'm wrong, then don't bother reading this, but isn't his typing style and color like Karkat's? Coincidence?

They’re similar, but not entirely the same.

Knowing Hussie, this is in no way a coincidence.

~Mod T

All around the skagtucus plant, the stalker chased the bandit, the stalker thought twas all in fun, POP! Goes the bandit.

~Mod T

Did that person just quote Tiny Tina? I'm pretty sure they did.

~Mod T

Anon I don't think thats how the song goes...

~Mod T

Confirmed that yes, that person did in fact just quote Tiny Tina from Borderlands 2.

~Mod T

Who are you Tiny Tina anon? How many licks does it take to get tot the tootsie roll center of a tootise pop? THE WORLD MAY NEVER KNOW.

~Mod T

Replay the game if you don't trust me, but I'm pretty sure that's how it goes.

I trust you.

~Mod T

fact: karkat is actually john's dad

~Mod T

okay im just kidding about karkat being john's dad, actual fact: The song "Black Rose, Green Sun" was the only song used in a flash before cascade that was in cascade. It was used in that one walkaround flash with rose.

Fascinating.

im sorry i just really like cascade and black rose green sun

No need to be sorry. It really was fascinating. 

~Mod T

Hey I sent something a while ago about Damara maybe being suicidal (According to Rufioh), I'm just wondering if you saw it or if I need to send it again...

It’s in here. I could just publish it if you like. Or we could wait for a different mod to put it on an image.

~Mod T

DING DONG, YOU'VE GOT THAT WRONG. The song used in the walkaround flash was Black Rose, Green Sun, whereas the one used in Cascade was Black Hole, Green Sun. Small difference name-wise, easy mistake to make, but still.

BLUE FLASH SPEEDS BY, SONIC THE HEDGEHOG. GOTTA 2 GU FSTSTSTSTSTSST. (I'd say I'm sorry but I'm not)

~Mod T

This seems a little mean but I assure you it's not! What should be blacklist if we don't want to see all your asks?

You should blacklist “fhsf asks” and/or “fhsf ask”

~Mod T

where do you even get your gifs i swear to god

I’ve been on tumblr a long time.  I’ve seen many things. I pick stuff up as I go along.

~Mod T

Hey, did any of you guys realize Hussie planned EVERYTHING IN HOMESTUCK TO DO THE EXACT THINGS? He had all these ideas before they even existed as pages. For example, Jake's side of the letter was introduced before Jake even came into the comic at all.

Another example being Jasper’s timeline or the RapBots poster in Dave’s room.

The beauty of the webcomic format is that you can waste time on boring stuff and throw in tid bits that won’t be relevant for years without having to worry about being cancelled or discontinued. 

Hussie truly is an amazing authour.

~Mod T

The Species title is the same number of letters as their names. All Kids have 4 letter, Trolls 6, Cherubim 8.

Don’t forget Ancestors 8

Sadly Guardian doesn’t fit the same pattern, but they all have three letters excluding Grandpa Harley (ex:Dad, Mom, Bro, Bec)

~Mod T

Actually! About the ask about Hussie's planning. He originally didn't even intend for the trolls to appear. He started the webcomic intending it to be solely four kids playing a game, and explaining the construct of the game. Source is from the 1st Homestuck book, in one of his comments.

Also a fun fact about the numbers of letters is that the Derse kids have 7 letters in their last names, and the Prospits have 6.

Correction, all Beta-Prospit Kids have 6 letters.

The Alphas have 7 (crocker and english)

~Mod T

Forgotten fact: Hussie didn't name any of the kids or trolls! Not pre- or post-scratch in either case. It's most likely because so many people started reading after the suggestion boxes were closed, but it's still pretty cool to check out the old threads and such!

I was reading what you said about ancestors having 8 letters as well as 8 letters in their name, but what about Grand Highblood?

The 8 letter restriction was too scared of him so he is the one exception.

~Mod T

Actually, most (or not all) of the Beforan trolls weren't named by Hussie either! They were suggestions in the name suggestion box for their dancestors.

The Beforan Trolls’ names were suggestions for the Alternian Trolls.

~Mod T

Correction: He named the alpha kids.

I can find no evidence to disprove your statement.

~Mod T

OBJECTION! I think he may have named john, the rest were named by forumgoers. Source: CTRL+F "Named By" on the kids' pages on the mspawiki.

• John may be named for James Dallas Egbert III, a student at Michigan State University who was incorrectly alleged to have disappeared into the school’s steam tunnels for reasons related to the role-playing game Dungeons & Dragons (D&D). Though, you’d have to ask Cuttlefish, the user who originally named him on the MSPA forum here.

andrew hussie is made of poopapoop

~Mod T

Actually, The Grand Highblood breaks into TheGrand Highblood, two 8 letter pairs.

Sorry to pop your bubble hun, but blood has five letters.

~Mod T

Mindfang's first name, Spinneret, doesn't fit the naming queue either. But Marquise does.

She’s a spider troll, this must be some form of irony.
