Re: Fandoms viewed from the outside

I think Homestuck is a webcomic? But probably one that updates fairly often, because the fandom is active. It has a distinctive art style that looks like it could have been drawn in MSPaint. The characters are possibly all kids, but some of them have horns and are trolls.

The plot has something to do with a computer game. For awhile I thought maybe there was an actual gaming element to the fandom itself, but I think that was something I picked up wrong and it's all a webcomic.

Thematically, Homestuck says interesting things about game theory. Or at least the arguments its fandom has always sounded very game theory. This might have some connection to the existence of the 'troll' characters.

On F!S the people who ID as trolls and do those incredibly embarrassing troll score cards all seem to be Homestuck fans. I don't know if that means that the trolls in Homestuck are some kind of proxy for internet trolls, or if the people trying to score internet trolls are actually making Homestuck references and I've been misinterpreting them all this time.

Not all the characters are corporeal or even still alive probably, but they're all sexing each other as is the case of every fandom ever.
