You may also notice that the poll asks you to select your top 15, but don’t worry! There is no hard limit on selections. I asked for the top 15 because if everybody went along and ticked off every single check box, there would be no point in having a poll at all! Use discretion, but if you can’t quite keep it under the limit without sacrificing your ultimate favorites, no worries. ....Whew! (I don't remember exactly the ones I voted for, but I do remember my "special votes" were Jane: Engage and the Zilly Santa Nightmare) Knowing Nora, she'll probably just end up reacting to all the ones that have over 30 or so people request it.

On discovering the loads of chess guys looking for food in Roxy's lab: Offer them some of your pumpkins. It’s not like you’re going to be able to eat them all before they go bad. Heh. Just wait a bit. Also I think a 2-player session could work perfectly well. A 1-player one would be a problem, but as long as you have enough people to form the loop I’d think you could pull it off A problem you say? Nah, that seems unlikely...

I’m in for something good. Actually, certain sophisticated technology is MORE able to read the captchalogue codes than humans are. Well, you can take a selfie with a captcharoid camera and get a code that can be used to alchemize your own brain... Well, it certainly does seem to be how Hussie does it. Yeah, how dare John insult Rose's 8eautiful 8uilding! The second one is very close, but not nearly in the way he thinks. > Liveblog thread regulars: Flip the fuck out. And yet this still isn't the REAL reason for it: If only ridding the universe of his influence was that simple. Man, I forgot how good Aron was. Also, considering all the people who are trying to get SOMETHING in before the end, the fact that we haven't heard from PFS, who would seem to have (had) the most chance to actually get caught up before the end while liveblogging other than Rune (sorry EJ), is not a good sign for her long-term viability. Okay there is no fucking way that that’s Feferi. On one level this is good, because Feferi was honestly kind of boring and this new troll looks more interesting. On the other hand, it means another twelve fucking new characters, which is going to slow shit down even more. Don't worry, it's only going to be three pages that will have their shit slowed down by this. Oh good, space is lonely. That probably also means blood is super gay and light is being an obnoxious prick. That's it, we've discovered the true meaning of the aspects everybody :0 D: she was all jack noir for a little bit there W: Oh, that reminds me! We’ll see Spades Slick, right? D: kinda not exactly sure how concurrent the midnight crews are across adventures i imagine they must be different since this isnt prospit or derse or the battlefield I may have asked this on the thread that I can't access, but what can we tell Dagrun about the degree of the Midnight Crew's presence in PS proper? We may have to discuss this on PM, but on the other hand I don't know if Dagrun has found her way here...

I just found out Rune uses they/them pronouns and now I feel like an asshole :/ I went back and changed it, but yeah, just letting you all know.
(I was sure I had seen them being referred to by she/her pronouns, but I must've been mistaken. Sorry.)

Now we only need Mary and PFS to return suddenly, and I would say that somebody gave a liveblogging a revival kiss

Roxy just mourned her mom, then had to meet the version of her mom that she never knew, now her dead mom is a zombie. Also, her mom is her daughter and all her previous friends are dead. HOMESTUCK, EVERYONE!

Elf is actually considering moving to audio reacts to flashes! Hrm. Maybe it’s not actually all happening on April 13th, but is spaced out over several years (during which John barely ages, because he’s a genetically-modified vat-grown clone catamite-in-training), and everyone’s made sure that John only has access to special calendars and keeps telling him, no, it’s the same day; you had a nap, is all. ...I forgot how batshit insane Elf's theories were. And her spoiler policy too. Good thing she reminded the people who have been ruining her "stop laughing at me" gag and attempted to explain Skaia and the previous appearance or lack thereof of Dave's note to her. (As I keep reading, I almost want her to reread her previous posts though, because I ALSO forgot how entertainingly wrong she can be...) Well, he can take her, the question is can anyone else take him? Something tells me you wouldn't quite understand it. You're going to regret saying that. I was hoping she'd pay attention to the recap, but she even noted how serendipitous it was that she was encountering it after a long hiatus and then skimmed right past it and saved it for later. [s*] Collidefuuuuuuuuck
(actual video reaction up later) And by later, he means right now, as I post this. *(I don't know how to escape text that would otherwise be interpreted as bbCode while still leaving it formatted)

Since we now have only three days to 4/13, I'm guessing Nora plans to do The Wanderers tomorrow and Prospit & Derse on Tuesday? That's kind of unusual spacing but I'm fine with it.

Rune might catch up with the comic today at the current rate. Maybe tomorrow so she doesn't have to rush it. She's less than 300 pages away from Collide.
Also lol at her reaction to Davepeta.

Also lol at her reaction to Davepeta. It actually mirrored my own reaction pretty much perfectly. I didn't end up warming up to Davepeta until their reunion with Arquius.

Oh sorry.
There is an old post where Rune says they are female, so I'm kind of confused.
But sure why not.

It's actually similar to the fandom's reaction. If I recall, people were like WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT but then when Davepetasprite^2 started talking more they were like "oh, okay, they're pretty dang cool i think"
Personally I think Davesprite does get closure by merging with Nepetasprite but I definitely understand why not everyone agrees. They should watch Steven Universe.

So much liveblog activity, this is great! Who’s there to hack? Dave? Imps? WV? Nanna? I think the internet’s pretty safe in the void. I wouldn't be so sure about that! Also I’m noticing there’s a sneaky underlying theme of colour duality scattered here and there. I’m not sure if it means anything, but I’m commenting on it anyway. Did he really catch the red/green symbolism already!? John is, again, back in his room on his birthday (which is still today; it is always John’s Birthday Today in homestuckland) Hell, it's probably his birthday again. When is it ever NOT John's birthday??? Yes, switch back; this is getting way too meta. I have read fanfic that had this much meta in it, but it gives me headaches. I don’t have enough coffee for this kind of headache this morning. This does not bode well. Maybe he’ll even decide that you should get a perfect ending to his masterpiece after all! Masterpiece, you say? Also, Condo Cooped has her [S] Jack Ascend react up!
*(I don't know how to escape text that would otherwise be interpreted as bbCode while still leaving it formatted) Enclose it in a [noparse] block!

Did he really catch the red/blue symbolism alreadyNah, since I'm pretty sure that doesn't start until Act 5. He did, however, catch red- green symbolism, which is much more pervasive, since it signifies, among other things, creation vs. destruction, arguably the main dichotomy in HS.

What's really odd is that the thing that first prompted Aron to comment on red/green symbolism was the lights on the punch designix, which... I think red and green lights, with red meaning stop and green meaning go, are a fairly common thing in technology? Oh sorry. There is an old post where Rune says they are female, so I'm kind of confused. But sure why not. Could you track it down and link it, because I think Eric tried to find it when he made his own realization and couldn't? And if you do find it but there's anything that explicitly says to use they and she/they've never explicitly said to make a change, maybe ask for clarification unless you're worried that would be prying too much?
