Thread: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

  1. #51

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hello, everyone! ^^ My name's Alyssa, but you can call me Lys for short or Pip if you'd like. c: I'm a big fan of Homestuck, and though I arrived rather late to the bandwagon, I'm very glad I finally checked it out to see what all the fuss was about. Some of my pastimes include band, theater, reading, and making (unfortunately unironically) bad digital art.


    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    My favorite flash is probably Cascade.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Since the beginning, it has always been Rose- I love her personality and I share her ever present dry sarcasm. I've grown to love all the rest of them, too.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Oh, I have far too many favorite books to pick only one. But I'm a fan of the Mortal Instruments series, and since I was young I've loved Watership Down.

    4) What music do you like?
    I listen to a large mixture of everything and anything except country and rap, but the majority of music is some form of rock or alternative.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    I typically type with standard grammar and syntax, though when I'm tired I tend to drop capitalization and end punctuation.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Homestuck Vol. 1-4, and Sburb.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    I ship Homestuck characters to the point of extremity. XD It's hard to pick just one, but at the moment I'm partial to GamTav.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Blue, most any shade, though I tend to lean towards navy.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Hmm, I've honestly never thought about it! I suppose it would have to be something a little unusual and tasty. c:
    dreaming again that it's freezing and my mother’s in her flowerbed
    long dead rows of daffodils and marigolds

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    OK, here goes... My name on the 'Net is Armand, I'm an almost-28-yo guy in London, England. I found out about Homestuck in a roundabout way (YouTube, via that silly "I'm so fresh you can..." fad, then Quest Of The Lowbloods, googling up what those funny-looking lowblood fellers were, and presto!), found out it's awesome, so I thought I'd now give the fora a go.

    I kind of suck at introductions so I'll run through the handy templates...

    Fav. Drink: a good cider, or a good mojito
    Music: I'll give most things a go but the only one that's stuck is heavy metal
    Hobbies: not as many as I perhaps should have, but I write lyrics (amateurish); play bass (badly); occasionally inhale a novel (with nothing else to do, I've caught myself reading one in a day or so, on occasion)
    Movies: I'm not a great moviegoer, but I've enjoyed films like Master and Commander; the Star Trek, Star Wars and Alien franchises; Avatar; the first Matrix film (before they got a bit up themselves, IMO)
    Gadgets: I don't have that many gadgets, but I do have an Asus EEE PC 901, an old Nokie E90 Communicator brick, and a 5th gen. iPod with the RockBox firmware on it
    Vidya Game Systems: PC. I used to have a Sega MegaDrive-MegaCD-32x combo but that is long since dead.
    Fav. Vidya Games: recently it's been mostly Skyrim (been a fan since Morrowind) and Minecraft; other games are Fallout 3/New Vegas, STALKER, Supreme Commander; I also have a little thing for time-sinks like tower defense games
    TV Shows: not a big TV watcher, but my faves are ST:TNG, sometimes other scifi stuff, and entertainment-style documentaries like MythBusters and Top Gear
    Fav. Food: if I had to say one thing, it'd be my mum's Russian salad, otherwise I don't really have a particular favourite
    Transportation: my feet, or public transport. bluh :|



    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    I think my favourite moments are when I 'got' the mock-adventure game format of the Homestuck strip; a couple of the interactive flashes (interacting with an flipping between the trolls in the computer room on the asteroid); and, realising just how dense the plot is for a webcomic (though the timey-wimey flashback stuff tends to infuriate me).

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    I don't know if I have a single favourite MSPA character, but shortly after I got into Homestuck I seem to have gravitated towards Gamzee. I'm a Capricorn and I remember I developed a habit of muttering 'honk' under my breath, before I ever heard of HS; is that a sign?

    ...

    *hOnK HOOOONK* :o)

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    I'd have to say that in the last couple of years I most enjoyed reading the original Master and Commander novels, after first having seen the film adaptation.

    4) What music do you like?
    See above.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    Does occasional plain shoddy typing count?

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Haven't listened to the albums yet.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    I have two favourites: gamtav, for sheer d'awwww; johnkat for aderpable/adorabloodthirsty.

    8) What is your favorite color?
    I'd say it's a toss-up between black, silver and red.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hey there! I have been an MSPA fan since June, introduced through shenanigans. I have stalked the forums for a slightly shorter length of time, and finally decided to make an attempt to be a part of this community.

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    http://mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005993

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    All of the characters.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?


    4) What music do you like?
    I listen mostly to video game OSTs and some alternative.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    what typing quirk


    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Honestly I listen to almost all of them regularly.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    I'm not really a shipper but John Vriska and Karkat Gamzee make sense to me.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    hi

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Let's see~ I'm completely new to this fandom. Whoa.

    I draw a fair bit. I'm not incredibly talented but nonetheless. I also cosplay a little and happen to be working on a couple HS cosplays.

    Trying my hand at the questionnaire, although I warn you, my views and opinions fluctuate a lot. /ridiculously indecisive

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    Oh dear. Too many moments. I tend to cherish whenever Gamzee, Eridan or Tavros have screentime. They probably have made me laugh the most. As far as flash animations that aren't [S] Cascade go, I may have to go with [S] Flip. Got a soft spot for them glitches. ; This may very well be my favorite pesterlog. Whoops, can't hide the fact that my sense of humor is twisted beyond sanity. Oh and Lord English' honks were glorious.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Buuut I want to love everyone!
    Andrew Hussie seems like a most reasonable answer.

    (Rose, Dave, Mom, Gamzee, Tavros, Aradia, Eridan, Doc Scratch, etc.)

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Angel's Egg and The Dark Crystal.

    4) What music do you like?
    A little bit here and a little bit there. Illuminati by Malice Mizer is quite possibly my one true love if one goes by specific songs alone.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    None. During instant messaging I can be seen mixing typing styles in one and the same sentence.
    and there'ss also my trolltag~~~ where I have a ssilly ssnake theme going~

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    The Felt and Volume 5.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    I like several pairings, but haven't really devoted myself to a particular OTP.
    John/(alt.future)Dave
    Rose/Kanaya
    Gamzee/Dave
    Gam->Tav->Dave->Gam
    Gamzee/Eridan
    I think Sol/Eri is starting to grow on me too.
    e t c e t e r a .

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    I like colors in general. They can all be wonderful depending on circumstance. And vice versa. Although admittedly I'm prone to identify with white, gold, pink, violet and beige.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Coconut ice cream.

    Hope we'll get along and such~
    Perhaps I'll drop by your IRC rooms sometime.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    To addition of the set up questions and because I don't have my tablet with me at the moment (that is also why my just made avatar might look a liiiittle crappy), I'll tell something more about myself before answering the little list.

    Hi! My name is Carina, my username is CthulhuZuzu and I'm 18 years old. I draw, read, game and roleplay through the day. Most of the times I'm not satisfied with my work, so yeah, I'm a bit of a perfectionist. I live in Holland, quite a bit away. I started reading Homestuck about five days ago, and finished two days ago till how far its going now. I haven't read the other comics yet, but I will surely soon do that. Promise! ^-^'

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    [S] Cascade. Not a doubt in my mind. I've been playing that over and over on Youtube right after I viewed the whole animation another ten times.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Jade, John and Vriska. But probably Jade the most.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Fiction eh... Oh dear, now I'll have to admit my huge addiction to Harry Potter. x.x

    4) What music do you like?
    Pop music mostly. Such as Coldplay and Adele. Not that I'm listening to those now *listens to Homestuck Vol.8 *

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    Typ!ng qu!rk? I haven't been th!nking about that. Maybe !'ll f!nd that out soon.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    I'll have to listen to the rest first, but at the moment, it'd be Vol.8!

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    Jade's gold battleship!

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Either green or purple. Its a hard decision.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Well some people nickname me Cookie. So I guess it'd be a cookie

    [EDIT] Dang, not even a half day on these forums and I already double post on accident. >.<

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    How's it going, peeples? Name's Ryss (pronounced like the Asian Grain), been reading HS since aboooout [S] Make Her Pay (at least, that's when I caught up) and have been lurking the forums since about then.

    Probably when WV was playing chess by himself (don't remember the exact page, I think it was in act 2?).

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    John, though WV and Karkat are close seconds/thirds.


    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Gurren Lagann. Seriously, nothing has ever dragged me in like this show. I literally could NOT take a break from watching this show. It's absolutely incredible.

    Honorable mentions go out to Paranatural, Half Life 2, Arrested Development, and Scott Pilgrim.

    4) What music do you like?
    Stuff that sounds good? I guess I like alternative rock more than other genres, but that's not saying too much.


    5) What's your typing quirk?
    I use letters and punctuation marks in sets of foooour!!!!

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    6, if I had to pick (which I do).

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    This one.

    Eight) What is your favorite color?
    Dark blue.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    A bowl of rice, to fit with my name.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    HERE COMES A NEW CHALLENGER!

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    I swear to God that... I can't decide. Honestly. I'm always an indecisive mess when it comes to favorite things in fandoms, so, yeah, a favorite scene, for me, is so really hard to pick. I'll... think about it a little bit more and then will get back to you guys *lol*

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    SO MANY. But, if I had to pick one, I would go for Tavros, baby. He's just... he's adorable and I just want to give him a hug *__*

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Lupin III. I've been obsessing over this for over an year now. Because... what's not to love on a series about thieves?

    4) What music do you like?
    I listen to pretty much EVERYTHING, but I have to admit my favorite styles are electronic music, sixties/seventies folk, rock and video game music. Specially video game music *eyes sparkle*

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    I... seem to overuse **, RANDOM CAPS and emotes. Sorry in advance for BOTH things. *hides*

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    I only have the first one so far, so... Yeah. I don't think I have a wide base to make any judgement XD

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    I'm going to be the big weirdo I am and tell you guys I'm so into Stridercest is not even funny anymore. And the fun part of all of this is the immense guilt I feel mixed with excitement. It's a roller-coaster of emotions, this ship.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    PUUUUURPLE. Love it

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Cotton candy. Since everyone thinks I'm a ball of sweetness and sunshine, welp, better take the part at once!


    Extra Info:

    So, I've started reading Homestuck on December and now I've finally caught up with the latest update. I thought it would be interesting to make more friends that like it, so this is why I'm here at the forums. I already got the 'obsessed with Lupin III' friends base covered, so...

    I'm from that bizarre and sometimes cool country known as Brazil, I have 24 years old, I'm a girl, and other interests of mine, aside from music, are video games (platformers and RPGs specially) and animu (thriller/suspense ones are on the top list of favorites, along with non-sensical ones).

    I guess that's about it. Hm, yeah. See you guise! *waves*

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    In my day, introduction posts were long enough to qualify NaNoWriMo …at least somebody might read this. My real name is Sean and I joined largely out of the interest in MSPAFAs. I suppose the rest is answered casually enough below.

    1 ) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    Rose: Answer Dave, ultimately for the following string of dialogue:



    2 ) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Dave. The answer is always Dave.

    3 ) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    That is a difficult question and I will have to answer multiple-choice style.
    • Anime: Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood
    • Book: Jurassic Park
    • Film: Reservoir Dogs
    • TV (Animated): South Park
    • TV (Live): Battlestar Galactica (2004)
    • Webcomic: Oglaf

    4 ) What music do you like?
    What kind of music don’t I like? I’ve been listening to soundtracks a lot lately. They make fantastic background music for writing and drawing and getting trapped in the vicious cycle of internet procrastination.

    5 ) What's your typing quirk?
    typing in all lowercassse and making sssure i sssound like a sssnake.

    6 ) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Volume 2, without question.

    7 ) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    Jade and Dave, because they remind me of my girlfriend and I.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Green. The answer is always green.

    9 ) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Gum that causes you to be addicted to heroin.

    Hey, you, I have a LastFM account as well, and seems like our tastes are similar. Do you... mind if I add you?

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    I thought that what I'd do was I'd browse this thread and then I'd make an introductory post since I didn't make one when I replaced-in for a mafia game.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Stephenson's Snowcrash

    4) What music do you like?
    Most recently - Glitch Mob, Ronald Jenkees, and a few modern 'classical' songs that all happen to be based on Bach.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    My typing speed, grammar, and spelling do not change based on intoxication.


    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Black & Navy to wear, green to look at.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Probably a coffee-drink of some kind that is delicious.
    I destroyed people whom I was fond of, and gave power to others I did not like. History put me where I stood; I have exhausted the credit she accorded me; if I was right, I have nothing to repent of; if wrong, I will pay.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hey there! I discovered MSPA two weeks ago. Since I'm finally caught up with Homestuck (going through Problem Sleuth right now, it looks equally brillant), I figured I should start an account here.

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    Hard to decide, but probably Vriska's rising to god tier. She's one of my favorite characters, and the entire scene was well-done and very emotional.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Also a tie here. I love Vriska, she's really interesting and I'm glad Hussie didn't turn her into the flat "bitch-but-actually-nice" token character. And she also has a lot of great theme songs. If we're only talking about trolls, I'm also fond of Terezi and Karkat. But overall, Dave takes the cake. His pesterlogs are hilarious and I always love timey-wimey stuff.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Doctor Who. As I said, I love stories revolving around time (as soon as someone described Homestuck as "4 kids play a game and then there are parallel universes and time shit" I was sold). I still haven't got around watching the pre-reboot stuff.

    4) What music do you like?
    Mostly from rock to techno/electro.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    When I have
    something to say
    something IMPORTANT
    I tend to cut it
    into small parts
    that I type one by one
    much to the annoyance
    of the people I talk with
    also use of caps
    for extra EMPHASIS

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Strife! I just love the whole album. The use of the kids' instruments is just genius.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    VriskaxJohn. It's pretty much canon and the dream bubble sequence was incredibly sad.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Green

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    French toast. Delicious, delicious french toast.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hi there. I started reading Homestuck like 2 weeks ago and it's soo amazinnggg. c: I'm finally caught up. None of my friends read Homestuck so I figured I should make an account here.

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?

    [S] Cascade. Everything was brought and so well fitted together. I had goosebumps everywhere. It's so genius. ;c;

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?

    Karkat and John. Karkat's always so angry in a cute way. I like John because he so...John.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?

    Portal. That game is so mindboggling I swear.

    4) What music do you like?

    A lot of Jpop and Kpop.

    5) What's your typing quirk?

    I like to type with correct capitalization whenever I can. I have some grammar and punctuation mistakes sometimes. Hardly any use of exclamation marks. I also tend shorten what to wat when I type it by itself. It sounds funny. Emotes only when I feel like it.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?

    Alterniabound.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?

    Karkat and Terezi. I dunno, they're just so cute together. I ship Vriska and John too, but to an extent. I love how Homestuck is open to a bunch of ships.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?

    Bluuuuuueeee. But I type in gray in MSN.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?

    BACON.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    [S]Make Her Pay is still pretty high up there. Got to see what happened to poor Terezi, Vriska doing awesome stuff even in her wounded state, and Aradia laying the smack down.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    I like pre-dead twice and blind Sollux, when he was still all grumpy and bipolar. And of course, Terezi still has a place as my favorite Troll. Her investigations, her goofy personality, drawing stupid comics, her leetspeak. What's not to love?

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Uh, fiction as in what? Any written work or ANY fiction? I tend to follow the lore of most things I enjoy very closely, to the point I tend to be the lore-master of most games that I play for my friends if they have questions. I'm big into Skyrim and the Elder Scrolls lore at the moment.

    4) What music do you like?
    Really, I'm pretty impartial when it comes to music. I'll listen to it if I think it's nice sounding. I dislike Rap and Country, not because I don't appreciate them, but because they aren't really good sounding to me. I tend to ignore lyrics and just listen to the music, so if it's catchy, I probably like it. Though I'm extremely partial to 80s music.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    I do my best to type in good syntax, but my grammar can be everywhere sometimes. And if I'm tired, I tend to ramble on and on, and start making very little sense. So me at like 2AM on a forum tends to be a bit messy for all those involved, if they are actually trying to follow my thought process.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    I'm enjoying the 8th one for Davesprite and Cascade. The rest is just icing on the cake.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    I'm not much of a shipper. I thought Vriska and John were cute, and obviously Dave and Terezi, but other then that, I don't imagine sloppy makeouts between any other characters.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Red and black? Red is just a cool color, always have thought so. Black just goes well with everything, so I have to love it for it's practicality.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Hmm...good question. Something delicious and awesome, for sure.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Weird coincidence there - I wonder how many posts in all of the Introduction Threads say something about discovering/reading Homestuck/MSPA two weeks ago?

    Hi everyone!

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hello everyone.
    I started reading MSPA about half a year ago, and lurked on the forums for about two months.

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    Well, honestly, it's probably [S] John: Play haunting piano refrain, mainly because I had only just started reading Homestuck and had no idea what to expect. Plus, I'm a stickler for piano music.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Well, I like all of them, but I suppose my favourite is Eridan's Scarf, and yes, I did mean his scarf.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Does this include published literature? Because in that case, my favourite book is Alice in Wonderland.

    4) What music do you like?
    I listen to whatever I like the sound of, no matter the genre.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    It varies on what I feel like at the time. If I'm bored, tired, sad or angry, I tend to write with minimal puntuatuon and dont care about spellling mistakes and/or grammer. But otherwise I try my best to use correct punctuation and grammar, though sometimes mistakes do slip in.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    I haven't really listen to any of them, nor do I own any, do I can't say.

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    Miraculously, considering the mass amount of ships in the Homestuck fandom, I haven't really got one. But, If I had to pick, it would probably DaveXTerezi.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    I changes from week to week. For instance, last week my favourite was dark green, but this week, it's light blue.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Why would I be food? What a strange question.

    And that's it, I guess.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    I can’t choose! There are lots of moments that I like, but I don’t have one particular favourite.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Again, I can’t choose! I love them all in different ways and for different reasons.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    It changes fairly often, but for the moment it’s George R. R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire.

    4) What music do you like?
    My tastes are kind of all over the place :P My music library is mostly soundtracks, though.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    I don’t really have one, unless you count spell-checking and proofreading multiple times before I post anything.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    At the moment it’s Prospit & Derse

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    Kanaya Rose and Dave Jade, though I like pretty much all ships as long as they’re presented well.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Red, followed closely by purple.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Hmm, maybe lavender biscuits? A strange but mild taste which takes a bit of getting used to.

    I'll do the image version once I'm back on a computer with photoshop installed, it looks like fun!

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hello, I'm Jai. I've been meaning to join the community since late last year but I finally raised the courage today. Right now. Hurrah. Homestuck has become my latest obsession... I read the whole thing in four days. That's how much it hooked me. I've now got my partner hooked, although she's taking a little longer with it, but she's getting there! So, yes. I am a fan. Intro-thing a-go!

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?

    Ugh. So many. Like most people, I got goosebumps from Cascade. But I also really loved running around in the trolls' hideout in the interactive minigames, so much so that I played them multiple times. And then there's pesterlogs that I go back to time and again. Argh. So I don't think that I have one defined favourite moment.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?

    Eridan. I know, I know, not a good start for me. But I can't help but adore him. He's my favourite by far. But I also really loved my patron troll Terezi, and Karkat, Vriska, Feferi, Rose and Dave.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?

    My favourite book is Jamie O'Nealle's At Swim, Two Boys. My favourite video games are the Sonic the Hedgehog series and the Legend of Zelda series. My current favourite film is Repo: The Genetic Opera because I'm weird.

    4) What music do you like?

    Pretty much everything, although I have a penchant for cheesy europop, old school rock, dark psytrance, dubstep and classical.

    5) What's your typing quirk?

    If I had one, it would likely be the overuse of tildes~ That and italics everywhere on any chat client that supported them.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?

    AlterniaBound

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?

    I'm probably weird in this fandom for not doing a whole lot of shipping. I have no problem with 'ships, I just haven't found many that really grab me. I'm a sucker for Eridan Feferi, and after reading BtLBSd, I could actually see both Eridan Nepeta and Eridan Karkat working. Eridan is in all my ships, what.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?

    Blue (tending towards indigo) followed by blood red and black.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?

    Stew. An in-joke from my partner hearing "I missed you!" as "I'm a stew!". Yeah, I don't even.

    So, yeah, I hope to get posting in this seemingly rad place (: It's exciting.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    I FORGOT I HAD THIS ACCOUNT FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    DEBUNK.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    WV. He's got the biggest balls of all the characters to try to take down the Black King without any powers whatsoever.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    The Eternal Champion. One of the classic works of SF/Fantasy. A shame that no one ever seems to remember it, even though it was one of the founding pillars of the genre.

    4) What music do you like?
    Various types of metal for which the discussion of exact genre tends to start flame wars. I tend to rotate between which bands I like at any given time, though.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    Other than too many commas at times, I don't really have one. Oh, and sometimes I ramble on in CAPSLOCK MONOTONE (a la Pratchett's characterization of Death) indefinitely to show I'm not being serious.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Uh...

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    John Vriska. It shows that she's developing into a better person; by comparison, Tavros' apparent development is just him giving into his own fantasy and making a really dumb decision as a result.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Blue. I am the Lancer. It's me.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Peanut butter and whipped cream sandwich. You don't notice that it's not an ordinary sandwich at first. Were someone to tell you exactly what was on the sandwich, you might be a little distressed. But once you've tried the sandwich, you find it is delicious.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Here's some questions to help me psychoanalyse the new people.
    1. Make up a word (must be made up by you) for each of the following things:
    -a. Really confusing love
    -b. Some sort of monotonous music
    -c. A mixture of confused and upset.
    2. If confronted with a man offering Eternal life or immediate death, which would you pick?
    3. If a means of digital art is available to you, draw the most meaningless bunch of lines curves and other geometry you can think of.
    4. Make up the longest word you can. Doesn't have to make sense, but must be pronounceable within the english language.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hey! Read Homestuck for the first time in September, only now actually conversing with other people in the fandom haha I'll answer the questions, since it seems like the thing to do.

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    Descend! Among a million others, mostly involving Dave.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    Unsurprisingly, Dave, closely by Karkat, Terezi, Sollux, and everyone else.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    Discworld, The Magicians series, The West Wing, for now.

    4) What music do you like?
    Hipster stuff mostly, indie, alternative, etc. Classic rock has it's place, of course, as does some dubstep and trashy pop.

    5) What's your typing quirk?
    Slow descent into unpunctuated nonsense over the course of the night. Also trying to cut down on my smiley addiction.

    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Vol. 5, I think. Don't listen to them enough to be honest!

    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    Dave/Terezi. SolluxEridan thanks to Hemostuck, and John/Karkat thanks to Promstuck. I spend too much time on tumblr.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Green, purple, or brown. Pretty much anything cool!

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    Ritz crackers. No question.

    Re: Introduction Thread 8 (Our Curiosity is Awaiting Your Arrival)

    Hello!

    I've been reading MSPA before HS Beta. I love Homestuck mostly for the characterization. The music is a great bonus, too. I created this account a while ago, but I never really used it. I've been lurking around for a while, so I might as well start posting.

    1) What is your favorite MS Paint Adventures moment?
    Rose rides an OGRE like the WIND soon after entering the Medium.

    2) Who is your favorite MS Paint Adventures character?
    John is #1. It is simply a fact.

    3) Favorite non-MSPA work of fiction?
    The Harry Potter series.

    4) What music do you like?
    To be honest, after aquiring the MSPA Soundtracks, it's quite hard to listen to anything but it. However, I will always hold a special place in my heart for Mabinogi's OST. If only Nexon NA wasn't such a shitty owner of the game.


    5) What's your typing quirk?
    sometimes I type

    like this

    because I feel like I'm in a hurry

    for some reason

    although I'm not really accomplishing anything by doing so

    I guess

    ...

    =/


    6) What is your favorite Homestuck album?
    Medium, but Sburb and Strife comes very close.
    Why?
    All the tracks are extremely amazing songs that perfectly grasp the theme of their planetary weathers.
    Just listen to Heat. Just listening to the stifling melody of its' violin makes you feel like you're going to drop it like it's hot whilst the pimp's in the crib ma.


    7) What is your favorite MSPA ship?
    The Chicago Overcoat.

    8 ) What is your favorite color?
    Orange.

    9) If you were a food, what kind of food would you be?
    I would be a sandwich. With pan-toasted bread. And bacon.
