Re: MS Paint Adventures 4: 13
I'm a little hazy on the plot convolutions. What is the status of the old cast of kids and trolls? Are they ghosts in the new cast's head? Do they still have any power? Where did the troll astroid end up, where did Jade's ship? Also, how can there be a new human universe when the old one got swallowed into the Green Sun?
Most important, why did the mixing of the Red human universe and the Blue troll universe create a Green sun and not a Magenta sun? Why???

Yeah, but Dave only created SBaHJ because he was inspired by Terezi's 8-y cartoons, which, depending on quite how/why the Scratch happened, wouldn't be in this time stream. Same with Cal.
On another note - I'd like to draw your attention to the fact that the figure seen at the end of the flash, and entering commands in Daedric, does not seem to be a carapace, like the other exiles, but is almost certainly a troll, given the skin tone, and the way the hands are drawn. Check out the symbol on its monitor, too. :o]

Sollux, Terezi, Gamzee, Karkat, and Kanaya are heading to the green sun on a psychokinetically impelled asteroid. A half-dead Sollux and god-tier Aradia have met up with god-tier Dave and Rose at the Green Sun. Bec Noir is facing off against Bec Blanche at the universe creation platform.
Are they ghosts in the new cast's head?
Probably not (though it depends what you mean by ghosts) - they're mostly all meeting up at the Green Sun, which is outside ordinary time/space.
Do they still have any power?
Yes, although again, they're at the Green Sun, so they're not necessarily going to be mucking about in the new universe.
Where did the troll astroid end up, where did Jade's ship?
The Green Sun, and Jade's ship flew through the fourth wall in Doc Scratch's office, and is currently hurtling across the Yellow Yard. It's almost certainly going to emerge, at some point, out of the window in grown-up Rose's Skaianet lab.
Also, how can there be a new human universe when the old one got swallowed into the Green Sun?
The scratch causes a reset, which happened at the same time as the detonation of the Green Sun - presumably the new universe gets sent off back to a new timestream. Perhaps that's even what's meant to happen. Ha ha. Hee hee. Hoo hoo.
Most important, why did the mixing of the Red human universe and the Blue troll universe create a Green sun and not a Magenta sun? Why???
Hussie's not mixing colours, he's moving at 120 degree increments around the colour wheel - from FF0000 (red) to 0000FF (blue) to 00FF00 (green)

I think what we'll be looking at here is a shadow war fought between, on the one side Lord English and his minions, and on the other the Godkids and the surviving trolls (and the whole population of Kidsession to boot), to control this session of Sburb and influence the former guardians.
This will be epic beyond our mere Earth human ability to comprehend, you wait and see. :smallcool:

Well there goes my fanart plans. What's with Jane and pictures of blue men? Who is that blue painted guy anyway? He looks familiar.

Well, technically Morganatic, Hussie's not just moving it either. When you remove blue and red from a picture all you will be left with is shades of green :smallwink:

Re: MS Paint Adventures 4: 13
So... if I'm remembering my lore correctly, the kids are now the guardians and the guardians are the kids?

The zoom-in on the earth makes it look like it might be upsidedown, i don't know if it actually is or what, but assuming a version of doc scratch now exists on this earth it's possible.
The Alternian letters appear on a computer somewhere.

Kids and Trolls escaped the Scratch by fleeing into Paradox Space/Beyond the Forth Wall.
The new Earth dosn't seem to be "Alternia with humans". My personal theory is that the first time around, a Universe gets a benevolent animal guardian like Bec, if that fails to produce a sucessful session, and the universe gets Scratched, then Doc Scratch (or somebody similar) is the first guardian, nudging history to better prepare the players.
I don't think it's going to be a carbon-copy of Alternia, but it will be harsher, or at the very least there will be an increased focus on Games.
The Kids/Guardians role will be switched. John will be Nanna's guardian, Dave will be Bros (Hence why SbaHJ is now a Movie, Dave is an adult in this), Rose will be Mom's guardian (We saw some of Kid Mom's science labs), Jade is Hass's Grandmother.
Also, I am sad to see that Jane Crocker has missed the greatest Mustachioed Funnyman of all time: Groucho Marx.

Re: MS Paint Adventures 4: 13
...Hussie was right.
The complete lack of hype for this flash made it A LOT BETTER. <3_<3
I am excited. I am very excited. *w*
I am also expecting trolls. I theorize that they live on the moon.
It's...interesting though, that they're playing Sburb ALPHA, and not BETA.
And the ancient crumpled hat/two bunnies that we see here...

See also "2x3 Prong Day", which is a very Trollish way of referring to something. Definitely looks to be troll influence on this world's culture, if not actual Trolls living there (which would be an interesting way of making a world that's more prepared to take on Sburb without going all the way into Alternia's complete insanity.)

Re: MS Paint Adventures 4: 13
must be a kinda slow universe though, i mean the first one managed to get the game into beta and it had two and a half less years until it's doom happened. this one only got into measly old Alpha:smalltongue:

On the other hand, an exclusive Alpha basically guarantees that only a few places are going to get hit by meteors.
So maybe they are a bit more advanced than we think? Also, maybe they do a bit more playtesting in this universe than the other one?
Or possibly, just possibly, there is more to it than we think. *Hint: Probably*

Soo, Jake seems to be Kid Hass. You've got Guns=Guns, Blue Women=Blue Women, Skulls=Hunting Trophies. Grandpa Harley's interests were already very eclectic, if he grew up in the age of the blockbuster, he could very easily be a movie buff.
Also, anybody else notice the Lusus Bedsheets?

Re: MS Paint Adventures 4: 13
Some stupid observations:
- The daedric text at the end of the intro flash says "Click ==> to continue". Click, not "press" or "push" or "hit" as usual for a keyboard. Therefore this is addressed not to the exile/troll/whatever that is reading it in-universe; but to the actual MSPA readers (us) who are using a mouse to click on instructions and progress in the story.
- There's at least three movies with "Knight" in their titles, all in close proximity. I guess Jake is going to be the session's knight.
- Jake is the same name as John, etymologically. (But not the same as Jack, which might seem closer, but is itself instead the same name as James or Jacob.) Jane is also the same name as John, etymologically, just the feminine version.

Which, if the Kid's roles are switched too (Meaning Jade is now his grandmother), she may have been using her Dog Tier powers to deliver the messages between him and her younger self this entire time.

I think we've seen a Sendificator in his house (the wiki says so, at least), which can send stuff 'twixt universes.
