But when I read through it, all the tying together of the random events started pulling it into an awesome story.<br /><br />"Pose as a team. The world is real."<br /><br />As per Homestuck, I like the story. Not as random, but it constantly pulls me in, making me wonder "what's next about this story? Why is this completely seemingly random thing important?" and when I find out, its awesome.Digimon Digital Livebloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04296104327335990594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-88365143850898150982010-05-28T15:08:22.056-07:002010-05-28T15:08:22.056-07:00HOW DO I LIIVE withOUT YOUHOW DO I LIIVE withOUT YOUAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-89142263006837619052010-05-25T09:38:00.010-07:002010-05-25T09:38:00.010-07:00Just realised that with the introduction of babies...Just realised that with the introduction of babies Homestuck jumped the shark.

As it turned out it became impossible, so he decided to do a grand flash animation for 4/13 and control the plot himself until it got there. As it turned out again, fate would have its way with Hussie and he couldn't get the animation out. <br /><br />He has yet to do the 4/13 animation, and I assume that once he finishes the 4/13 animation and gets the plot to where it needs to be he'll reopen the boxes again.<br /><br />And what does everyone have against babies?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6714810984552499396.post-78466525747334061242010-05-24T14:44:27.767-07:002010-05-24T14:44:27.767-07:00I'm a big fan of MSPA, but I have to agree tha...I'm a big fan of MSPA, but I have to agree that the introduction of the babies is pretty tenuous. <br /><br />I fear that the second wind that Homestuck seemed to pick recently may be wearing out.<br /><br />and w/r/t Andrew not taking user suggestions, I don't really care too much.
