What happens when the card explodes into grist is great. And nowhere does it say it's a 1/1 ratio or anything, just that to convert that particular item cost 10 boondollars. Read better!

It stirs some deep seated fear of mine to see that the way you subvert the human race most easily and effectively is a multi-global corporation. Jane loves the batter witch.

Well, Doc did say the Scratch would result in a race better prepared for SBURB... Still, this is kind of ridiculous.

What Jane's missing is a way to send and receive item codes, which has come in really handy with the other kids' session.

A good poster posted:What Jane's missing is a way to send and receive item codes, which has come in really handy with the other kids' session. But didn't the kids make that punchcard machine with the lathe thing? Once they made items they took the cards and stuck them in a machine to get hole patterns so that they could also input codes for items too (John and Terezi and the jetboots come to mind)

Of course, all that means then is that that hat had 90 grist in it. But it also might have actually had 100 grist, but when 10 boonbucks were introduced into it, it exploded out the actual grist. Boonbucks could be the Negaduck to the grists Darkwing Duck.

Dude's 15, I doubt he'll have his own puppet - er, pony - porn empire this time around. Still, depending on which ways the irony trains are running he might be participating in something sufficiently creepy and unironic, or maybe this time it's Dave running Hornjobs.com for the discerning unicorn fancier.

Just to be different, I'm gonna guess Dean Strider and Rena Lalonde. Man, if all the new kids' intros are going to be this lengthy, we may be another month at least until we have a glimmer of hope in seeing the OG kids/trolls again  . Good thing the content we are getting still owns.

The entire concept of scratched Trolls confuses the hell out of me. I guess the whole Mobius Double Reacharound Factor is so high with Alternia and Earth that you can't scratch Earth without scratching Alternia? So weird. This leads me to realize something though... The Condesce. We're not dealing with OUR Condesce. Judging by the troll we just met, in fact, I'd hazard to say she's on our side

Again, though there's some strange poo poo afoot, there's no reason to believe that the scratch that just went down has directly affected the Troll universe and Troll session in any way. Not yet, at least.

Judging by the troll we just met, in fact, I'd hazard to say she's on our side There's a pretty good chance UU is from the sequel session to this one, ie the victory session. Their username implies it pretty heavily, since it implicitly means "Hidden from the light of the Green Sun" given how uranium has used thus far in the game. Which would mean UU is a descendant from one of our already known trolls if that's the case!

There's absolutely 0 evidence that indicates that the kids scratching their session scratched the trolls' session again. The Trolls' session was already scratched once. Scratching it again would prevent Doc Scratch from existing and therefore prevent the Kids from Scratching so e: Maybe UU is PipeFan413

Just realised something: "Poppop" John followed in the footsteps of his own comedian grandfather because in this universe, Colonel Sassacre survives: he meets a baby clutching his own book of jokes, rather than one wielding dual flintlocks. Either way, at least sounds like he had a pretty good life  .

But I can't help but note the parallelism between UU and Karkat. Karkat bothers them to tell them how much they've hosed it all up. UU pops in to say today is the day you make it all go right. Hussie loves his parallelism. I could see it going either way.

The other possibility we may not be considering is that UU is lying. I mean, "she" claims to be just starting her session, but she knows a bunch of "spoilers", and appears to be typing from an Exile station, which makes no sense for a current game player.

Captain Oblivious posted:That is possible! But I can't help but note the parallelism between UU and Karkat. I think this makes UU being from the 'sequel session' even more likely, since it makes her an inversion of Karkat more fully- someone from the session after theirs being happy and encouraging and not interfering in a significant manner? Backwards Karkat in almost every way. Edit: this is working from the assumption that UU is being truthful so far which may not be the case at all, hard to tell for the time being

Clearly the Troll Empress has hold of the Matriorb, which she uses to produce an infinite amount of Troll grubs, for use in the manufacture of Gushers. This is not the silliest theory I've heard.
