Nothing of the kind in that bit. You probably really are thinking of

Having four jacks just brings MSPA closer to its JRPG inspiration as four sounds like death in japanese so whenever they want to do anything really really scary the have four of it. Hussie clearly intended this all along as part of his brilliant plan.

There are a ton of fours in MSPA anyway: four Kids, four Alpha Kids, 3x4 Trolls, 4/13 and so on and so fourth. It's arguably a link with both the Japanese death symbolism and the Western symbolism of four being a number linked with nature, creation and balance (four elements, four seasons, etc.)

I was predictable and just asked for Scalemates and replica AUTHENTIC Nic Cage fondled Bunnies (AUTHENTIC genuine replica box preferred but optional). I told them they can probably buy the rights for it, being an expert in the field of lying to get what I want.

Also, in me related news; Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff is now in my grubby mitts. it really is amazing. I got the Squirrel on my coin!

I have a feeling he's going to spring it on us soon. The wait time between vol. 8 and vol. 9 was about eight months and the difference between vol. 9 and vol. 10 seems to be bridging around that same time span now. If anything I can see it coming out when this portion of the comic ends.

Be careful of what you wish for. I heard that the music team was working on a cherub-themed album a few months back... :stonk:

Of course I also heard there was a Sweet Bro and Hella Jeff album in the works at one point too, and that never happened.

The last three releases were literally this. I think we're due for a nice, big, diverse volume.

My people I bring you a message from the Lord!
I dunno how long the survey is going to be up for or how many times a single person can fill it out, but I feel like I'd be letting a really good opportunity pass if I didn't mention my one desire that burns so brightly in my heart of hearts:

A SBURB sourcebook/pen&paper RPG

I've been in and run a couple of campaigns now (and am still running one now), and you would not believe the hassle involved with trying to make an established system (like GURPS or Burning Wheel) conform to Hussie's lunatic setting. It's great fun and all, but Jesus Christ, it is so hard. An official, comprehensive sourcebook would make all the difference. Wouldn't some of you guys be interested in something like that? I feel like this might be an opportunity to make it happen.

gently caress, I'd play that. I already used my survey, but I basically asked for something similar: A behind-the-scenes post-story blow-by-blow book of all powers, aspects, and combinations, plus how a "normal", non-broken game looks like. You know, all the stuff we've only been able to infer so far.

I'm just going to go ahead and repost the Homestuck Fiasco playset that Fewture MD made and I added to.

But yes an official sourcebook would be great. I'd like to hear your ideas for system hacks though, since that's something I think a lot about too.

I'm guessing we'll get at least something similar with the Homestuck Adventure game, but I'd really love to play (or even run) a game of that before then.

Hell, I get the urge to actually make such a game on a regular basis.

That's what I was getting at about an encyclopedia for Homestuck/SBURB; I just want something that will make a tabletop RPG possible. All attempts to homebrew it have been hard, and it's mostly due to the lack of information about classes and things just not being clear. Either having it all explained that way or just having them create an official TTRPG for it would just make my day.

A Sburb codex would be pretty drat neat. In the realm of plushies and stuff, I think a set of all the members of the Felt would be a lot of fun.

Dude, I've actually kicked around the idea of homebrewing a FATE-based Sburb system. It'd be perfect for it, FATE is rules-light enough to be flexible and the Aspect/Refresh system would be perfect for titles and powers.

I suggested hats, I'm a sucker for ball caps. I think it'd be weird to wear one with one of the character icons or something but if there was a hat with the Spirograph design I'd be all goddamn over that.

e: I've always sort of figured that once Homestuck is done, Andrew Hussie is going to get as much out the fanbase as he can and then immediately use that money to leave the country and change his name or something. At this rate he's probably got stalkers by now, demanding he fix their OTPs or whatever.
