==== Strong Bad "Trap Door" Sample ====

''{Cue Strong Bad sitting in front of the Lappy, flanked by The Cheat, who is holding a remote control. Homestar is standing on a brown trapdoor in front of Strong Bad.}''

'''STRONG BAD:''' All right, The Cheat, let 'er rip!

''{The Cheat presses the button on the remote. The trapdoor opens under Homestar's feet. He falls about two feet and stops.''}

'''HOMESTAR RUNNER:''' Woo! That was fun!

'''STRONG BAD:''' The Cheat, I thought we were opting for the bottomless pit. ''{Homestar starts a little dance with his feet, stepping back and forth gracefully.}'' ... Not a two-foot pit!

'''THE CHEAT:''' ''{Angry The Cheat noises}''

==== Sample Game ====

The free sample game resembles Space Invaders with Strong Bad against an army of Homestars coming out of the sky. The Cheat periodically falls from top to bottom and if he hits you, a message will appear saying "YOUR" "HEAD" (changes to SHIP a second later) "ASPLODE". Trying to play the game is difficult because the screen continually flashes the message "TRIAL VERSION", locking the game controls. The game also automatically closes itself after the 14th "TRIAL VERSION" screen, keeping you from advancing. Using the cheat described below, it is possible to eliminate all of the Homestars, but this only results in a new set of Homestars appearing, and nothing else.

== Fun Facts ==


=== Explanations ===

* The entire April Fools' site is a spoof of the preview pages on many pay-sites on the Internet: the trial videos, the free tour that ends with a sign-up page, the tacky design and layout, and the "streaming video game feeds" all mimic said pages.
** The second page claims "ACCESS TO ALL 230+ STRONG BAD EMAILS!" when there were only 127 emails at the time it was posted. This spoofs how subscription sites often flagrantly misrepresent their content. However, this may be a reference to a perk of subscribing (viewing unaired Strong Bad Emails).
** A recent trend for Internet entertainment sites (especially game sites) is to be free for a few years, and then the owners initiate a pay-to-play policy.
** The free trial game that expires very quickly is very common on many pay sites, which offer demos of popular games that expire after a specific amount of usage time, counted in hours, times played, or days. Afterward, many member sites disallow users from downloading the demo again (or are allowed one or two more downloads), and the user must then purchase the actual game.
** The low quality images spoof the [[JPEG|compressed JPEGs]] used by the sites.


=== Trivia ===

* The font type of the phrase "There's more?? Why, yes." is the same [[Fonts|font]] used on the [[Compy 386]].
* When the page was first released, the navigation buttons at the bottom of the page weren't there, like [[Under Construction]].
* The loading screen for the Trapdoor sample reads "loading free pay sample...".
* Pressing '7' on the keyboard (or the numeric keypad) during the trial game will toggle the gray 'TRIAL VERSION' message. If it's onscreen, it will vanish. If it's not onscreen, it will appear. Holding down the 7 key rapidly toggles the message on and off. The 7 key has no effect at any other time.
* The screenshots on the first page show:
** Senor Cardgage showing a pie chart to Homestar, dressed in [[Homestar Runner's Sleepwear|his pajamas and robe]] from [[caper]].
** Strong Bad with the [[Lappy 486]] as The Cheat serves him Strong Sad's head on a platter.
** Strong Mad on [[The Couch|the couch]] wearing Homestar's [[Homestarmy]] bowl, next to Frank Bennedetto.
* The screenshots on the second page show:
** Strong Bad at the [[Tandy 400]] with Sterrance (from [[animal]]) in the foreground.
** Strong Bad destroying a city (à la [[Godzilla]]).
** Strong Bad in front of [[Bubs' Concession Stand]], which has gained Bubs's eyes and mouth.
* The third page has:
** A screenshot from [[StrongBadZone]] with the quote "A SPLODE IS A LOT".
** The boxes for the [[Videlectrix]] games [[Planet Alert!]] and [[Spaceshipper]].
** The sprite of Stinkoman from [[Stinkoman 20X6]].
** A screenshot from [[RhinoFeeder]].
** A screenshot from the Videlectrix game [[Rabbit Algebra]].
* There is a [https://old.homestarrunner.com/payplustile.jpg background tile] image, but it's only a tiny black line.
** The line actually gradients to grey as it nears the center, but in front of a default white background, it is almost impossible to see. When the image is tiled on a black background, then the gradient forms a line that can be seen.
* Homestar made it only to five at the end of the "Seven Seconds" trial, meaning he was counting, on average, at the rate of one for every 1.4 seconds.
* Using a Flash decompiler, it is possible to see that The Brothers Chaps left the entirety of the [[Scrolling Shooter Games Menu|games menu]] in the trial game instead of just the necessary objects.
* The label on the disk in the floppy disk container reads "[[Floppy Disk Container|hunt the wumpus]]".
* Except for the buttons and movie clips, all content featured in this toon are JPEGs.
* In the math problem shown in the screen shot of Rabbit Algebra, x = ±4.


=== Remarks ===

* Right clicking and selecting "play" will quickly advance you, page by page, to the very end of the presentation.
* None of the screenshots on the first two pages are from actual toons or emails. The StrongBadZone screenshot contains a quote not found in the game.
* On the "The Email Show" page, in the middle of the screen, Strong Bad's eyes are a much lighter shade of green and have lost the shadow on the tops of his eyes.
* Homestar is shown standing on Strong Mad's head after falling through the trapdoor, yet in [[Strong Mad's Character Video]], [[The Li'l Brudder Show]], and [[Toikey TV]], [[Basement of the Brothers Strong|the basement]] was shown to have a much higher ceiling.
** In [[Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People]], it is revealed that the computer room is on the top floor of the House of Strong, with an entire floor separating it from the basement, though the HomestarRunner.com universe has never been entirely consistent in terms of locations and distance.
** Additionally, it is first shown that only Homestar's feet fell through the hole, yet in the next scene it shows that half of his legs went through.
* If you shoot all the Homestars in the trial game, a second wave appears.
* On the first page, the right column of pictures is entitled "Instant Access", but at the end, it states "You will receive your package in 6 - 8 weeks."
* The presentation refers to an "everybody dies" episode of [[Teen Girl Squad]]; however, at the time of this cartoon, [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 8|Issue 8]] had already included every character dying. Since then, [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 9|Issue 9]], an Easter egg in [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 10|Issue 10]], and [[Teen Girl Squad Issue 13|Issue 13]] have too.
* The "question box" on the Games page only allows for ten characters. It is also impossible to submit anything.
* You can access the "you will receive your package in 6-8 weeks" page without filling the form out.
* Even if you were a member, you wouldn't be able to login, as the "loggin'" box has no submit button.
* The price of the subscription changes from $12.95/month and $99.95/year on the first page to $19.95/month and $499.95/week.
* "View your shopping cart" cannot be clicked on.


=== Goofs ===

* Pressing the back button while watching the "Let's see a clip!" preview on page 2 will not make the clip close, but it does close if you go back to page 2. This does not work if you hit "Show me more, sir!" or on any other of the previews.
** However, if you right click and click Rewind while watching the other samples, it goes to the first section. It zooms in on the game.
* In the 7-second trial (which is actually 7.15 seconds long, according to counter), the counter in the corner is counting by seconds and then 60ths of seconds. If you watch it frame by frame in the Flash file, you can see the decimal counter is going at 5 60ths of a second per frame, which means the decimal goes up by 5 every frame. At the end of any second, the counter does not go from 55 to 0, it goes from 55 to 60, and then to 65 of the next number, and then to 10 of the next number.
* The black part of Sterrance's face mask is not present in his screen shot.
* In the free trial of the "Email Show" page, when Homestar has been caught in the trapdoor, his position on Strong Mad's head would be impossible.
* As of the [[Post-Flash Site Update|post-Flash site update]], after the page redirects to [[Main Page 19]], the buttons on the main page are not visible.


=== Fixed Glitches ===

* After the post-Flash update, the ship in Homestar Invaders could only shoot four times.


=== Inside References ===

* This toon mentions [[Interactive Menus|interactive menus]].
* When your ship is destroyed in the trial game, the message "YOUR HEAD A SPLODE" appears, with "head" changing to "ship" a split-second later. This is a reference to StrongBadZone and another appearance of "[[A Splode]]".
* All the sprites in the trial game come from the secret games on [[Strong Bad's Message Bored]].
* The floppy disk seen during the "Trap Door" sample reads "[[Hunt the Wumpus|hunt the wumpus]]".
* The "cred" card shown on page five belongs to [[Leomard Sportsinterviews|Lem Sportsinterviews]], who is a member of the [[Superfied Credit Union]]. This is a reference to the [[credit card]] email and to the [[Downloads]] page.
* The Cheat uses a [[Single-Button Remote Control|single-button remote control]].
* The phrase "Also, too" also appears in [[monster truck]].
* Cheerleader's shirt reads "Sperled rotten", an instance of [["Er" pronounced as "Oi"|"Oi" pronounced as "Er"]].


=== Real-World References ===

* The trial game resembles another Homestar Runner game, [[Armless Invaders]], which in turn resembles the arcade game [[Space Invaders]].
* "I'm a real boy!" is a reference to [[Pinocchio]], a wooden puppet who was turned "real" and made a similar remark in at least one version of the story.
* "I'll teach you to steal my date, Eh! Steve! I'm gonna come outta my shell at the Friday Night Dance and show everybody who's who!" and the #9 jersey are references to the movie [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112368 Angus].


=== Fast Forward ===

* Similarly to Homestar, Strong Bad and The Cheat would fall through the floor onto Strong Mad's head in an Easter egg in [[your edge]].
* Bubs' Stand would turn into his head again in [[Doomy Tales of the Macabre]].
* The line "Revamped for the '90s" would later be used in [[Xeriouxly Forxe]], another April Fools' Day prank.


== DVD Version ==

* Viewers can read the pages in any order.
* The DVD will advance to the next page automatically if nothing is selected after a while.
* The Free Sample Game is not playable; instead, a video of the game being played is shown, with the [[Nagware|nag screen]] still present.
* The form at the end can't be filled out or submitted.
