Starmaker posted:Andrew outright stated SBURB (or SGRUB or whatever) is how universes reproduce. I really have no idea where anyone got the idea that these are the only sessions? There's been absolutely no evidence, inside the story or out, that this would be the case. These are important sessions of course, which is why the story is focused on them, but I really don't see why anyone would think they are the first, last, or only ones Also consider: if universes can only be created after winning a game of Sburb, who or what created the first universe? And then who or what created the circumstances that created the first universe? …etc. Andrew is putting his own spin on creation myths. He is Doc Scratch. He'll leave stuff out on purpose so he can surprise you later about how everything you thought about the story wasn't the way you thought it was, while still remaining true to his original statements. I think that other universes existing in Homestuck is an obvious possibility, like the possibility that intelligent life exists somewhere in the universe outside of Earth (in real life). But as for right now, we only have two known universes that seem to have been constantly affecting each other's fates from their inception.

Talorat posted:I always got the feeling that Dave and John had met before the story began. They make several references to each other's appearance and the appearance of their rooms at the start of the comic, so unless they are going around snapping pics of themselves and uploading them to HomestuckSpace they must have met in real life before.

The majesty of the wolf-head illuminated by carefully timed lightning is the only thing of value that will be lost when Homestuck goes to print.

He probably just illustrated Jane looking up at the sky (screen) for artistic impact, and then decided to explain that she literally did that, as a joke.

I think these gaming abstractions only become relevant on a need-be basis. Say Andrew wants a character to have enough grist to create a certain tool. He will just say that the character had enough grist to do this. Likewise, if he doesn't want the character to be able to access this tool (as it would give him the ability to cross some kind of obstacle that he couldn't cross before), he will just say the character didn't collect enough grist to do so yet. There's no great build up or concern for grist deficit— it just is or isn't. No character will be like, "if only john had killed that last imp, he would have been able to overcome the great felt knight!" If you're looking at this from strictly numbers, you're going about it the wrong way. Hussie has explained (through one of his various forums for explaining things [formspring, MSPA forums]) that levels aren't really important, and that a weaker character can beat a strong character if they are caught at a point of vulnerability. Terezi killing Vriska is a pretty good example of this. I can't find the exact quote, but he used a DBZ reference to scouters and power levels and how this story wasn't like that.

Fast forward to 3 years when they finally make it to the fourth wall. The ship makes contact with the wall, doesn't break it and they fall on the floor. Suddenly the EOA7 animation happens and Spades Slick runs over them in a wheel chair. The logical conclusion to Homestuck.

It's pretty clear that Íæû ë€Å is a new joke in the light of the recent developments. It's not a cover-up and it's not meant to be taken seriously, although it will be. e: Beekeeping and You posted:In the MSPA forums, Hussies actually said something along the lines of "I retconned a hilarious joke into an even more hilarious in-joke," so at least we know it's not a technical thing. I think the idea for the characters being a-racial was a fairly early one as evidenced by his responses to fans, but clearly some opportunities for jokes arose.
