So I finally got one of my friends to read homestuck, and then we got another two of my friends to read homestuck. The friendstuck pile will hopefully not stop from getting taller. Partially because most of my friends are taller than me.

Re: Fan sightings!
If you keep converting people at this rate (doubling the amount of people reading each time), then within four years I calculate you will have overtaken the population of the Earth and therefore the only people left to convince to read Homestuck will be aliens.

Re: Fan sightings!
Oh hey this is a bit late, but Moondelev and I saw a guy in a John shirt at the Museum of Natural History in NYC last Friday. We didn't get a chance to talk, but if you read this thread hey what's up John shirt guy.

Re: Fan sightings!
It's almost as if people forgot about problem sleuth...
Funny isn't it?

Re: Fan sightings!
I think a lot of MSPA readers are just obsessed with Homestuck right now. Not all of them, obviously. I don't think it's forgetting, I think it's just back-of-the-brain right now.
Streets ahead.

Re: Fan sightings!
Not to mention that Problem Sleuth is finished and relatively short, while Homestuck is ongoing and still like three times longer.
It's more recent, there's more material, and in my opinion at least the material is better. It only makes sense to me that the story would have more fans as a result of those things.Below: A nasally-voiced twenty-year old who has just woken up addresses the MSPA Forums with way too many pauses.

Re: Fan sightings!
One of the people I convinced read problem sleuth first, like a proper Order of Tales reader. It took me three months to get him to read homestuck after that.
Though there was a Candy Corn Vampire and a Sepulchritude cosplayer at AUSA! I have a picture on my deviantart, they were super rad. (nimz did it)

Re: Fan sightings!
Yesterday I was biking around UCF and I saw a guy wearing a dave shirt. He was wearing shades and he was blonde so as I passed him I said "Hey, Dave" and just kept going. It took him a split second, but he said hi back.

Looks like dave when he's wearing shades, and he's been DJing for ten years.
If you've heard of Gaijin Games, he was their engineer and programmed the BIT.TRIP series.
Uncanny...

Re: Fan sightings!
Makes sense.
If anyone at my highschool reads MSPA, I will be genuinely shocked.
At the same time, most of the people in my school would also be too bewildered and stupefied by the general plot shit of homestuck.
This may sound douchey, but to be frank a good portion of the folks in my school aren't the shrewdest arab traders in the caravan if you know what I mean.
I was away from school for one week and some of them legitimately believed I was dead.

Re: Fan sightings!
A lot of my friends are Homestuckians!
And I made two more fans.
I feel proud.
I might cosplay as Jade for school randomly. All I'd have to do is wear my science fair t-shirt, teal sneakers, and find a long skirt in my mom's closet (pretty sure she has a grey one that'll fit me). Although it might seem odd simply because it'd be deviating from my purple-cenrtic wardrobe.

Re: Fan sightings!
I've tried but no matter how many of my friends I tell about Homestuck, they never check it out. I would show it to them on the school computers, but our oppressive school network blocks the MSPA website, which is probably due to the porn adds.

Re: Fan sightings!
I haven't seen any Homestuckers outside of the last convention I went to (AUSA). I'm going on a cruise next month and hopefully will have some way of finding other Homestuckers. Because I am lonely. ;-;
The Sparky hath spoken.
Here, have a tumblr.

I keep hoping someone will recognize my Hero of Light hoodie. But then, there may not be fans in my town.

I've gone around in various nerdy attires and even the most blatant ones don't always attract obvious attention. Even in nerdy gatherings. Originally Posted by epoose

Re: Fan sightings!
I went to the Sacanime this year, there were so many homestuckers and cosplayers! It was really cool. If anyone went to the con and saw a 12-13 boyish looking rule wearing a green hat and a striped shirt with a twin with long hair tagging along, that was me and my sister. Maybe some cosplayers remember me asking them flusteredly for a picture. We came back the next day for the panel! So maybe you remember a person asking a stupid question of where Nepeta was.
Besides that, my school probably doesn't have any other Homestuckers or Sluethers besides me and a converted friend.Last edited by IPadDoodler; 12-06-2011 at 08:11 PM.

Re: Fan sightings!
I wouldn't have expected one of my friends to get homestuck, but they totes did, when they started. People are usually smarter than you think. This goes double for people you don't like. Introduce people to it, even if you don't think they'll get it, and you'll probably have more fans to sight.

I've met a girl who was into HS once, but we were at a party and as the night went on she disappeared heh.

Re: Fan sightings!
there just remains the problem of getting them to actually read it.
And unlike indie games
Force is not a good way to get them into it.
This is in reference to how Sborb got me to play the majority of awesome indie games that I know and love today through force.And unlike indie games
As in he got on my computer, and liberally installed a bunch of awesome games.
