Hey App. We're talking about Homestuck, which you SHOULD TOTALLY READ.

And whenever anyone mentioned Eridan, I just think of Erdogan.

#15804 Meta Four Thu, 13th Sep '12 6:54:28 PM from home

Out of curiosity, do you actually know anyone else who likes them?

I like Feferi too.

Tavros, I'm ambivalent towards. I feel sorry for the guy, but I can't quite respect him.

So, Blue likes Tavros and likes Feferi less, while Meta likes Feferi and likes Tavros less. And they're my two favorites.

Clearly, favorite troll lists must be posted and analyzed for further correlations.

<- Favorite troll should be obvious.

Least favorite troll is Gamzee. He's less a coherent character and more of a joke at the fandom's expense.

Everyone in between is too close to rank, though I guess Tav is on the lower end of the blur.

However, leaving behind preferences and speaking of objective facts, the best troll is Andrew Hussie.

All I'm going to say is that Terezi is best troll.

Fef's always been one of my favorites. Terezi's number one, though. Least favorite's probably Tavros for pretty much the same reasons Meta said. His life is just a mangled heap of problems, he's an interesting character, and you can't help but feel sorry for him. But that doesn't mean I like him.
I feel similarly towards Eridan. Overall, he's a good character, but god what a jerk.

^^She was my favorite on first read-though.

I still don't know how I feel about Tavros. Sometimes I like him, but other times I just want to smack him upside the head and tell him to grow a spine. Or whatever it is trolls have in place of a spine.

Everyone else ranked Terezi higher than I did. I-I feel so alone...

Also: What's wrong with not having a spine?

And as for why I like Tavros: It's more that I enjoy his personality, his INTERESTS, and like that he was able to use his powers to have an army of imps.

Non-lazy lists

Trolls:
1. Terezi
2. Feferi
3. Kanaya
4. Equius
5. Aradia
6. Vriska
7. Karkat
8. Gamzee
9. Sollux
10. Nepeta
11. Eridan
12. Tavros

Kids:
1. Rose
2. Dirk
3. Dave
4. Jade
5. Roxy
6. Jane
7. John
8. Jake

I don't think I've ever tried making a full list like this. I really don't know why I would put Nepeta and John so low. Kids are harder to rank, so assume that those are all really close tiers.
@Crow. Yeah, if anything, I'll give that Tavros is really good with his abilities.

@Blue. I've seen you say you don't like Jane a number of times while lurking the HS thread. For what reason? I'm curious.

#15816 Bluespade Thu, 13th Sep '12 8:26:41 PM from Fort Worth, Texas

@Crowlover: The real problem is that when he finally did grow a spine, he did it in a really douchebaggy way. Granted, I think that was just the low point of some needed character development. If he hadn't died, he would have become a better troll.

@Swasfews: She's really, really boring to me, isn't funny at all (literally every other character in the series is funny at least some of the time), and does a lot of really stupid self-destructive things, and tends to not listen to her friends no matter how obvious it is that she should.

Oh, yeah. I wasn't especially fond of that Tavros. Though I actually wasn't suggesting I thought he needed a spine...

Also, Why did my favorite trolls have to be the first to die?

#15818 Swasfews Thu, 13th Sep '12 9:00:19 PM from New York

@Blue. I figured it was something along those lines. I mostly like her because of how others react with her. Her constant bouts of stupidity are a really obvious problem, so I was pretty sure she was going to develop out of them. Or holding out for it, at least.

@crow. How far are you exactly? If they've started dying, that means you've reached Horrorstuck at least?

This meme

was originally of Twilight, right?

Well Seath if you didn't want to be alone maybe you shouldn't kill innocent women and turn them into tentacle monsters.

More crossover between my favorite fandoms.

@Swas Some point in Act 5 Part 2. God Tier!Aradia, an Aradiabot, Kanaya (who I think they said is now a vampire), Jade, and Tavros are all in a Dream-Memory-Bubble-thing

While I was running The Sane Asylum in DDO, I saw someone who had displayed Twilight, Element of Magic in Trade Chat. The player jokingly offered to trade for it, the joke being that it binds to your character upon acquiring it.

The funny thing is about those three weapons is that Twilight is the only one that explicitly references MLP. The descriptions on Nightmare, The Fallen Moon and Celestia, Brightest Star of Day are rather vague and subtle reference-wise.

#15823 Karl Kadaver Fri, 14th Sep '12 6:25:37 AM from Hunched over at my desk.

I noticed a reference to MLP in one of my sessions in Shin Megami Tensei Imagine. There's a drunk in the Beginner's Area who tells you the rules of life.

Rule 2 is "Friendship is Magic."

Give the world the best you have and you will get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you have anyway.

Wow.

Castlevania: Lords of Shadow did the same thing by throwing in the phrase "The Cake is a Lie".
