Spoiler for inc*st Spoiler Honestly. I'm not even surprised. "All ships are canon" has been used to justify every ship imaginable, Hussie implying this sort of content only reinforces that, and "all ships are canon" reinforces that in turn. I can only see this going badly for Hussie in the long run, but he's already an Internet Horse Weirdo so I doubt he gives a shit. Just don't fuckin hurt anybody over ships okay? Okay.
working on posters for the big bang and current plan is to go with the standard THE REBELLION NEEDS YOU kinda thing any suggestions/requests for what should be on the posters?
...I'm also 100% up to do some kinda art trade for the posters because I gotta make four of them and dear god I spent all my skill slots on knitting
I guess quadrant symbols would go somewhere, though I don't know where exactly A mix of troll hands and human hands?((the stark white of the comic?))
hrm maybe? because polyswap's split into derse (18+ participants, all content ok) and prospit (all ages participants, SFW content only), I was thinking about going with a purple/yellow color scheme for those
annnnnnd discord server is open!! it's accessible to participants, betas, and pinch hitters, so if you fit any of those categories and want in you can hit us up on the blog :D
pinch hitter? sorry, i've never heard that term in this context. is that a replacement if someone drops out?
yep! I think it's supposed to be based on a baseball thing but that is one of the sportball fields I know diddly squat about pinch hitters (for polyswap) are people who sign up with the intention of picking up a dropped assignment (art or writing) IF and ONLY IF it's something that interests them no obligation, etc. etc., but for this swap, unless more artist sign up, we're gonna be lowkey gently pushing pitches under pinch hitter's noses and waving them around like hey....hey.......you know you wanna do this one........please do this one oh god (these are our current ratios I promise we're not just being dicks) Prospit Comparison writing: 14 (70k words total, 2 arts:5k words) Equivalency: 1 art: 14 Derse Comparison writing: 32 (160k words total, 2 arts:5k words) Equivalency: 0.6875 art: 22
I'm actually kind of dreading Hussie's blurbs about the Tavros + Vriska drama when that eventually happens Also skimming through the recent book at my local chapters and I forgot just how. Dense shit is. We've only just gotten into year 2 of Homestuck book wise
swanky new posters to share unfortunately they're too big to upload https://polyswapprospitbigbang.tumblr.com/post/179258202680/sign-up-now https://polyswapdersebigbang.tumblr.com/post/179258166438/sign-up-now
new dilemma: i own the 3 homestuck books that came out before VIZ Media got the publishing rights. and those 3 books cover acts 1-3. so it would be logical to simply buy Homestuck Book 3: Act 4 (when it comes out) and any further volumes past that. but i'd be missing the Intermission which i'd only be able to get if i got Homestuck Book 2: Acts 3 & Intermission. but it feels wasteful to get that when i already have act 3 why have they done this to me
@Kathy Jones thank you!!! I finally found a way to link the original ones I did for Derse and Prospit so I'm gonna do that and ALSO include the reblog links for the previous three....whoops general PICK A SIDE one: http://homestuckpolyswap.tumblr.com...rticipants-betas-and-pinch-hitters-contact-us beta reader poster: http://homestuckpolyswap.tumblr.com/post/179288958568/sign-up-today pinch hitter poster: http://homestuckpolyswap.tumblr.com/post/179288802078/sign-up-today
