it was always sort of implied that gamzee would go crazy, to me at least. didn't think he was going to turn evil, though.
anyone else want to read [I]more[/I] since all of the recent developments?

Destroyed the fan base? what?

I've been told the MSPA forums is having a shit storm
The comic is getting MORE entertaining if anything, it's a little thing call plot devlepment incase you haven't heard it.
While i am extremly worried for karkat and might flip a shit if he dies i won't stop reading, that would be moronic just to stop because my favorite character died.
You don't stop in the middle of a movie if a character you likes dies/ turns out to be evil so why do the same with this awesome comic?

Meh, I'm not gonna read 10 pages of this thread, I'll just continue from here.
Whoa man that's some scary stuff, I didn't even think that something like this was a possibility. I can't wait to see where this will go, Homestuck always manages to keep my interest peaked.

Why do you guys want to stop reading? It's entertaining as hell to me, I'm loving the new updates.
Same here, things are starting to really get good. For the first time in forever I am actually on the edge of my seat waiting for the next round of updates (unless Hussie whips out another [S] somehow).
I have read through the Formsprings and thought about a bit. Hussie is right, the whole thing was just misunderstood, taken too seriously.
Yeah, it's dark, but it's still comedic. We got used to stable, serious environment, but it was not meant that way.

[B][URL="http://www.formspring.me/mspadventures/q/154153875773887822"]Do you ever think maybe you lump too much under the term "humor"? I prefer to think of Gamzee's new development as equal parts disturbing and scary.[/URL][/B]
nonononononNONONONONONONOnononononono.
It is extremely hilarious to me, especially when put in the light of his arc as an utterly useless, whimsical stoner character, and all the goofy fan stuff made about him, and knowing about the turn months ago while people had no clue, and the reasons go on.
I just think a wide range of stuff is funny. If you say I lump too much under humor, it really only means we don't share the same sense of humor.

[B][URL="http://www.formspring.me/mspadventures/q/154138511031696959"]Does it irk you that there are newcomers---or maybe old-timers who just never realized what the hell they were reading---that take MSPA So Seriously? It seems that so much of the surprise twists/twisted humor is responded to with disbelief lately.[/URL][/B]
It doesn't bother me, but it's definitely a real phenomenon, and one I anticipated a long time ago when considering the possibility of a growing readership.
I believe there are a lot of people who hopped aboard during Hivebent or later, and didn't really cut their teeth on the "MSPA culture" from which all that emerged.
On the other hand, I know many of those people have been savvy enough to pick up on it, read earlier stories, do a little homework, and start to figure out why everything is the way it is.

[B][URL="http://www.formspring.me/mspadventures/q/154131915421542798"]About the Futurama example with the dog dieing, yes, that was a sad thing in a funny show, but it wasn't a joke itself. The dog was't wearing a silly hat or anything. Why do you directly put jokes in a scary/sad events? Why the honks in Fef's death scene?[/URL][/B]
Yeah, so it wasn't a PRECISION STRIKE ANALOGY I guess? I was just pointing out a sad thing in a funny show. In any case I kind of disagree. I believe there was humor in that moment. You just need fine tuned instruments to detect it, like some of the things happening here now and then.
Why the death scene honks? Because this story has always dealt in That Kind Of Thing. Sometimes a sad moment is played totally straight (like Jade's letter to John). Sometimes, or often, a sad or violent moment will be accented with humor, if not played humorously straightup.
The bottom line is, if you have to ask, I honestly can't imagine that you understand much about MSPA.
And if nothing else at all, I guess you could just read this article.

[B][URL="http://www.formspring.me/mspadventures/q/154128263025812338"]Did you have evil schizophrenic Gamzee planned out from the beginning? You know, since his chumhandle IS terminallyCapricious.[/URL][/B]
I gave them all troll handles well before they ever came close to being real characters, but those names always set up the parameters for where I could drive the characters thematically when continuing to develop them, if inclined. So yeah, this was always a strong possibility, without necessarily being 100% committed to it the whole time. Regardless, there was some groundwork set up for that possibility should I decide to run with it, which I did, and the decision was made quite some time ago.
Same with others we've seen recently. Kanaya had the theme of virginity due to her sign, which when you think about it, is a pretty TOUGH CONCEPT to shape into coherence for a character in an ensemble like this, but I worked it by bonding her to matriarchal themes with her virgin mother grub lusus, and the role she inherited as progenitor and caretaker of the matriorb, and more specifically, recently showing the futility of that role, as the concept of chastity is not particularly compatible with successful breeding. When she found the key to release it, it was a sign that all along it was not meant to be used, but destroyed.
Eridan was originally cast as someone dangerous and genocidal, but those qualities were never illustrated and became easily dismissed as a joke as his whole character seemed to revolve around failed romantic aspirations for so long. But they came back, reminding us they were driving forces behind his profile. (His name, caligulasAquarium, was also tied to his various romantic obsessions, particularly the need for a rival, which is bound to the caliginous quadrant, another word for dark.) Ultimately his dreams of genocide were realized by being the one to destroy the orb, which appeared to always be his intent for "helping her" with it, making his preceding conversation with Kanaya much more detestably villainous than it seemed. In doing so, he destroyed hope for the species. This is his final interpretation of his role as the Prince of Hope. Not as one who fights for hope, but destroys it. He's certainly the worst kind of bastard this story has to offer.
Both Eridan's and Gamzee's dangerous sides were heavily masked by the long adherence to their roles as one note gag characters, and made it very difficult to predict these outcomes seriously. A few days ago, nobody at all is guessing Eridan walks into a room and kills two characters. And before this page:
[URL]http://www.mspaintadventures.com/?s=6&p=005119[/URL]
Even fewer people would ever make a serious guess Gamzee would become a threat. Commitment to the gag was too air tight.
But that's was makes the development equal parts disturbing and funny in my view.

I'm sure that's the whole reason those trolls died was for a GENTLEMEN bait.

It's kind of sad to think about how long Gamzee had been struggling with his other personality.
Edit: Wait a second! I think in the second quote he was actually talking about the clown horns instead of the troll horns. Originally, I thought he was starting to have evil thoughts, and then pulled himself out of it, but now I'm not so sure. Also, notice how he says he likes to scare himself. I think that's a reference to the split personality he has going on.
Had the idea ever since the update, finally drew it. :v:

Edit (I originally just reposted his quote as a agreeing type deal)
Explaining myself a little better, I'm all for characters I like dieing and drama building up but he's kinda shotgunning ALL of them at once and that's kind of overloading to me and a few friends of mine who read it. The pacing is kind of out the window and now I don't even give a shit about the kids, I just want the characters I like to stop getting offed

Character development is a bitch huh
Sollux better wake up soon. He's going to flip the fuck out at Feferi's death, but if he stays unconscious, there's a good chance that Gamzee will finish him off when he goes hunting for Karkat.
Oh wow uh.
