Really, we need to think up different names for post scratch Dave, Rose, John, and Jade, along with different names for the post scratch troll ancestors. Because they are not the same people and, in a sense, it is insulting them by pretending they are.
You're definitely insulting The Sufferer by saying that he's the same as Kankri. Kankri hasn't had to suffer anything in his life, he just likes to imagine that he has.
I think I did this in my update excitement frenzy; but only because I couldn't remember Kankri's name and I was too lazy to write "pre-scratch"....or "A1" I guess...

I like Meenah a lot more now. I just love how she gets so very excited about fishpuns! And she is great in a lot of other ways as well.
I'm lost. Did future dream Rose just merge with past Rose to make her go to sleep/wake up?

Yep, looks like things are back to normal in the MSPA Discussion Thread.
Earlier when she looked through the window it was the flag of Finland. I don't think it means much.
The Condesce has fins.

This sounds kinda very plausible as Bro's symbol, actually.
I hope Hussie puts it open-end up. Horseshoes facing down don't collect good luck and in fact spill it out.
I may or may not have been ninja'd, but in some cultures an open end up horseshoe is bad luck because it becomes a seat for an evil sprite to sit in. :'D
Every time Hussie posts it's like a chorus of angels come down and tell us all to go fuck ourselves because we're wrong.
I feel enlightened.

All I can think of is how glad I am I signed up on these forums when I did.
Might sound strange coming from a guy with only a few hundred posts, but I lurk a lot.
For every joke, and funny panel hussie put up, I can remember like 3 injokes spawned by the community. Or see all the direct responces he did because of stuff just random memes that were coming up in conversations at the time.
For every plot twist, I can remember 10 crack theories that were insane and the occational one that got it right in the most awesome way. The hilarious freak out reactions.
And it occurs to me that it just makes the whole thing that much more amazing.
Thanks guys. Keep being amazing.

Well, firstly, I'd like to wish all of you a happy first day of fall meteorologically, unless if you're in the far east near the IDL, in which case it's already September second. Secondly, that was a pretty good flash there. Aranea no longer wins best βᵗ by default against Meenah, nor does she still win it (6ecause Kankri, despite his ann9ying 6ey9nd all 6elief quirk, is awesome, and Latula's pretty good too). Lots of Aranea-sposition and Rose-position, which is always good, especially the getting paid at the end, which I found humorous. And Karkat's password was very great. Overall, much better than Caliborn.
One thing I've been wanting to know, why does the flash contain multiple Andrews? Is Andrew subject to the same multiple timeline rules as everyone else, or is he multiple people or what?

He's the Waste of Space - he has the ability to literally rip portals through space time to different places. (Or, y'know, because it's funny and kinda silly)
On another note, Karkri's walls of texts are just unbelievable. I wasn't sure if I wanted them to end or not. He's every politically correct social worker I've ever met, but somehow funny. I find it interesting he was all "sexism what sexism" though. And the mothering Porrim does to him was adorable and just perfect /gush.

Andrew just rounds around pretty quickly.
Also, Time-Space works differently in the Dreambubbles. Remember that statement of actually being able to punch one's self.

I think it;s supposed to be just one, although if you get the Andrew to follow you to the chest where the other one is hiding, you can see both of them together, so I dunno.
There's multiple Andrews because it's funny. I guess I just don't see the need to think too deeply about that one.
Speaking of the Andrews, I especially loved the #DOTA #again joke Hussie is just too meta for meta to even work anymore as a descriptor for how meta he is getting, holy shit.
Now I'm just going to sit here and watch Rose giggle.
The reason the first session failed wasn't because of the cancer.
IT WAS BECAUSE THERE WAS NO PROBLEM SLEUTH TWO

Wait. How is that any different from our Hussie. I'm not getting it.
He was able to do this with a regular, non-flash-animated update.
I think. My sources may or may not be reliable on this.

This is just kind of silly.
are you implying those three callbacks arent deliberate as all fuck? the question is "is andrew screwing with us or does this mean something".
your references seem to imply that UU is LE, as Jake is specifically asking for UU's name.
if UU is LE,
the retroactively funniest thing in homestuck would be the universe devouring time travelling scourge of paradox space going 'kisses'

While I doubt that that may be true, I'm curious as to whether the Horrorterrors are truly able to revive the dead wandering in the dream bubbles. (Or just probably allow them to go outside without disappearing like half-dead Sollux did?)
What do you guys think?

I may be wrong here, but did that dialogue only appear when you rebubbled that specific converstion (because I feel like there was one in which this was the case). If so, maybe it was important?

It appeared twice, first when I was talking with Meenah as Kankri, and then this so it's probably not that special.
Oh yeah, it seems like the other A1 trolls' sprites have been taken down in Gankro's github.
Good thing I saved the Lameblood's sprite.

Good thing I burned their appearances into my mind's eye. And, also, linked images to them (which you can still find on the Pre-Scratch Troll Thread if you want).
So, anyway, from Porrim's conversation with Latula, it seems like the pre-Scratch Trolls are also the ectobiological parents of the A2 Trolls.

I was too busy obessessing over Latula's radness.

Because I mean, you could probably engineer a mutiny on her ships and get mindfangs crew to turn her over for some reason. In fact Im sure she spent long nights in the dark of her room planning just such a scenario.
But then, while she was taking her dragon for a stroll/small town eating she realized "I H4V3 4 FUCK1NG DR4GON".
Im sure we all would have come to the same conclusion.
my god
You're a fucking genius.
People with dragons don't need plans. They have dragons.
How she passed her legislacerator exams.
She gave deep, in-depth answers.
Then scribbled "1 H4V3 4 DR4GON" over all of it.

Tavros is pretty cool, in a loser-ish sort of way.

And DD is my favorite carapace/exile.
Snowman is a pretty cool character as well, I guess.
For some reason I find myself listening to Umbral Ultimatum more than most of the other songs, with Let's All Rock the Heist being a close second.
Does this help?
Yes absolutely.
Thank you.
This will become relevant in the future. Far enough into the future where you will probably forgot I even asked this.

So, I'll make a bit of an analogy.
Let's say the kids are files in a folder, the folder being the universe.
When you Scratch the universe, It can be seen as, like, reverting the folder to a previous version. So anything that was on there before and any changes are lost.
There are 2 days to avoid this.
1) Kill yourself (ie: Throw in the recycle bin). By doing this, you still exist in the afterlife, and when the folder is re-written, the files still exist in the recycle bin.
2) Escape. Transfer the files to another folder (ie: universe) simply, and when the folder is re-written, the transferred files will be safe.
Also, I wonder if Latula got the tiger. My initial thought was she did, seeing how she understood Meenah's plan, but I'm now not so sure.
Hmm... maybe she did?
She did mention to Porrim something about not being a Mind player, but then again, you can be well-versed in your Aspect without being a god tier...
Anyways, I wanna know who got the tiger first among them.
Porrim seems to have implied that a lot of them reached god tier, at least more than the A2 trolls had.
Really? How?
I was too busy obessessing over Latula's radness.
When she called them her group's descendants. They couldn't actually consider them their descendants if they were their biological parents, since they don't seem to consider their scratched A2 selves to actually be them.
EDIT: Also another one, when Aranea was paying Meenah to listen to her talk about Latula, she referred to Karkat and Terezi as Kankris and Latula's descendants. That is actually pretty solid evidence as to how they think of their counterparts in the A2 session.

She wasn't actually sure though. (Dancesto+rs? Hmm... Bingo+)
Maybe she just considers them their descedants because they preceded the A2 session by millenia, and they were the one responsible for Alternia being what it is, and by extension, the A2 trolls too.
shadowed: I actually added something else that is pretty solid evidence for why the A1 Trolls are the 'parents'.
As for Porrim not being sure; in the A1 session, they were their ancestors, but they also turned out to be their ectobiological descendants. Which is where the confusion sets in.

I was about to reply but the server got busy. (How did that happen? I almost checked for an update.)
But while they do consider them to be descendants, they also don't reject them being their Ancestors too.
And what I said before could also apply to Aranea since she was the one who told Terezi that she is also Terezi's ancestor because they preceded the A2 session by millennia.
Anyways, has there been a panel of Tavros cosplaying as Rufio or did I just mistake that panel where get angry and Rufio appears?
I'm trying to create a sprite of Rufioh, and I'm having problems with his shirt.
