'''@ronginald''' was a '''[[Twitter]]''' account operated by [[Matt Chapman]] from September 3, 2011, until January 22, 2013. (The account was closed and then reopened by someone who is not Matt or [[Mike Chapman]].) The name is a reference to [http://www.ronplanet.com/rp022.html this strip] of [[Ron Planet]]. In his Tweets, Matt insisted that [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] was not over (despite having been on [[Hiatuses|hiatus]] since November 2009, with minor returns in [[Xeriouxly Forxe|April]] and [[A Decemberween Mackerel|December]] 2010); displayed [[Sketchbook|sketches]] for [[In Search of the Yello Dello]] and rejected [[Halloween Costumes|Halloween costumes]] and a teaser shot of the script for the then-unreleased [[Strong Bad Email]] [[sbemail 206|206]]; and mentioned how he then spent his time (he worked for the [[Nickelodeon]] program [[Yo Gabba Gabba]], for which he and Mike had previously created an animated segment). The Twitter account [[@StrongBadActual]] was later created for [[Strong Bad]].

'''@ronginald''' was a [[Social Media|Twitter]] account operated by [[Matt Chapman]] from September 3, 2011 until January 22, 2013.
 
The account was first noticed by fans when [[Pendleton Ward]] [[File:Matt portrait Pen Ward.jpg|posted a portrait of Matt]] and identified @ronginald as &quot;the voice of [[Strong Bad]]&quot;; though the account had not tweeted at this point, later posts made it clear that it was indeed owned by Matt Chapman.
 
At the time, [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] was on [[Hiatuses|an unprecedented hiatus]]: though the site had historically seen weekly updates, [[H*R.com updates 2010|only three new toons were produced in 2010]] and [[H*R.com updates 2011|none were released in 2011]], leaving fans doubtful about [[homestarrunner.com|the site's]] future. In his tweets, Matt reaffirmed that he and [[The Brothers Chaps|his brother]] [[Mike Chapman|Mike]] were not done with Homestar Runner, hinting that it would be updated &quot;sporadically&quot; in the future. He also discussed [[The Brothers Chaps' Side Projects|his then-current projects]], including writing, directing, and acting for ''[[Yo Gabba Gabba!]]'', ''[[Gravity Falls]]'', and ''[[The Aquabats|The Aquabats! Super Show!]]''. Matt also occasionally shared behind-the-scenes information and images from both Homestar Runner and other projects.
 
The account was closed on January 22, 2013, which resulted in the deletion of all its tweets.

Latest revision as of 14:24, 14 July 2026

@ronginald was a Twitter account operated by Matt Chapman from September 3, 2011, until January 22, 2013. (The account was closed and then reopened by someone who is not Matt or Mike Chapman.) The name is a reference to this strip of Ron Planet. In his Tweets, Matt insisted that Homestar Runner was not over (despite having been on hiatus since November 2009, with minor returns in April and December 2010); displayed sketches for In Search of the Yello Dello and rejected Halloween costumes and a teaser shot of the script for the then-unreleased Strong Bad Email 206; and mentioned how he then spent his time (he worked for the Nickelodeon program Yo Gabba Gabba, for which he and Mike had previously created an animated segment). The Twitter account @StrongBadActual was later created for Strong Bad.
