''The Map of Peasantry''


</div>
'''Peasantry''' serves as the primary setting of the [[Videlectrix]] games [[Peasant's Quest]] and (presumably) [[TROGDOR!]], as well as the [[Board Games|board game]] [[Trogdor!! The Board Game]]. It is a medieval land mainly filled with [[Peasants|peasants]], [[Mendelev and Dongolev|archers]], and [[The Red and Blue Knights|knights]], though creatures such as the [[Dragons|dragon]] [[Trogdor]], the ogre-like [[Kerrek]], and the primitive [[Jhonka]] also abound. Most of the peasants reside in small [[Thatched-Roof Cottage|thatched-roof cottages]], many of which have been burninated by Trogdor. Its name is based on the land of Daventry, from the [[King's Quest]] games by [[Sierra]].

== History ==
== <span class="mw-headline">History</span> ==


The history of Peasantry is a dark one indeed. For untold ages, the chivalrous realm of Pageantry (the kingdom that owns [[Scalding Lake]]) had been at war with their adjacent neighbor, the deplorable kingdom of Bigotry. Their borderlands were a permanent battlefield, and those unfortunate peasants caught in the midst of it all did their best to eke out an existence while the war raged around them. Eventually, just before the Age of Trogdor, the land on which the armies fought became so ravaged and war-torn that neither side would claim it. With no realm to call their own, the peasants of the borderlands grumbled together a meager government and began calling themselves the kingdom of Peasantry.

Line 407: Line 186:
In the early days, life was simple and happy. [[Baby Lady & Her Baby|Baby ladies]] stole money. Creepy [[Old Man|old men]] fished in the lakes. The Jhonka, a troll-like being that lived in a cave, hoarded its treasure. A vile giant known as the Kerrek invaded the land, squashing all who trespassed his fields. Then, a dragon known as Trogdor the Burninator came. Trogdor ravaged fields, squashed peasants, destroyed huts, and spread burnination all over the land. Ever since this day, while most of the peasants of Peasantry have lived in peace with Trogdor for centuries, some people did indeed live in fear.

The Jhonka, a troll-like being that lived in a cave, hoarded its treasure. A vile giant known as the Kerrek invaded the land, squashing all who trespassed his fields. Then, a dragon known as Trogdor the Burninator came. Trogdor ravaged fields, squashed peasants, destroyed huts, and spread burnination all over the land. Ever since this day, while most of the peasants of Peasantry have lived in peace with Trogdor for centuries, some people did indeed live in fear.


It is revealed in the [[Peasant's Quest Movie Trailer]] that Peasantry has a monarchy—namely, the heretofore nameless [[King of Peasantry]]. There is another place called Parchmenty, a few kingdoms over in the &quot;uppity, know-it-all realm&quot; of Frillscholar.

The Bar in Summer Short Shorts and in the Theme Song Video

The Bar in Strong Bad is a Bad Guy

The Bar has appeared in a few different toons. It seems to always feature Cold Ones or 'old ones and a bowl of peanuts on the table. It has a dartboard and a LEMKE pennant on the wall. Stairs are visible through one door, so it might be in a basement, or it might have a second story. It serves as the meeting place for the Broternal Order of Different Helmets.

Its second Flash appearance in Summer Short Shorts was almost identical to its first in the Theme Song Video, with an updated look to the bar and the characters.

In the DVD commentaries for Summer Short Shorts and Ever and More, the Brothers Chaps suggest that the bar is in Pom Pom's basement, referring to it as his "rumpus room".

In May 2023, Strong Bad tweeted a jazz/funk remix of the theme from Strong Bad is in Jail Cartoon as a teaser for Dangeresque Roomisode 2: The Intersection of Doom & Boom; he then retweeted Trott's remix of the song, and challenged him to "jazz-interpret (a) little song I made up as I was reading the instructions for this shelf". Trott responded with multiple covers of the song.

In August 2023, Rich Trott's Decemberweenvent Calendar covers of Stave It Off and Strong Bad is a Bad Guy were used in Dangeresque: The Roomisode Triungulate. The game's soundtrack was released later that month, containing 13 new arrangements of the music by Rich Trott, in addition to the two tracks that were used in the game.

Trott has been a Node.js maintainer since 2015. He started the practice of using fhqwhgads in the code base when an arbitrary string or variable name is called for.

The plane isn't low. It's just in the foreground.

  • The wing of the airplane will pass over any action happening in The Field. The only thing it does not pass over is Homestar Runner's head.
  • After Strong Bad runs across the screen when the cursor rolls over "E-mail", the Flash file restarts itself, causing the What's New, Main Page, and Weeklies links to disappear for one frame and the What's New button cycle to restart.

  • The sound effects for the "Games" and "E-mail" buttons are taken from the Atari 2600 games Combat and Seaquest.
  • The sound effect for the "Characters" button is from the Atari 2600 game Pitfall!, when Pitfall Harry would collect a gold bar, diamond ring, etc.
  • The effect when Strong Bad disappears is from Pac-Man for the Atari 2600. The first sound effect made on the "Downloads" button is the sound Pac-Man makes when eating a pellet.

The Map of Peasantry

Peasantry serves as the primary setting of the Videlectrix games Peasant's Quest and (presumably) TROGDOR!, as well as the board game Trogdor!! The Board Game. It is a medieval land mainly filled with peasants, archers, and knights, though creatures such as the dragon Trogdor, the ogre-like Kerrek, and the primitive Jhonka also abound. Most of the peasants reside in small thatched-roof cottages, many of which have been burninated by Trogdor. Its name is based on the land of Daventry, from the King's Quest games by Sierra.

History

The history of Peasantry is a dark one indeed. For untold ages, the chivalrous realm of Pageantry (the kingdom that owns Scalding Lake) had been at war with their adjacent neighbor, the deplorable kingdom of Bigotry. Their borderlands were a permanent battlefield, and those unfortunate peasants caught in the midst of it all did their best to eke out an existence while the war raged around them. Eventually, just before the Age of Trogdor, the land on which the armies fought became so ravaged and war-torn that neither side would claim it. With no realm to call their own, the peasants of the borderlands grumbled together a meager government and began calling themselves the kingdom of Peasantry.

In the early days, life was simple and happy. Baby ladies stole money. Creepy old men fished in the lakes. The Jhonka, a troll-like being that lived in a cave, hoarded its treasure. A vile giant known as the Kerrek invaded the land, squashing all who trespassed his fields. Then, a dragon known as Trogdor the Burninator came. Trogdor ravaged fields, squashed peasants, destroyed huts, and spread burnination all over the land. Ever since this day, while most of the peasants of Peasantry have lived in peace with Trogdor for centuries, some people did indeed live in fear.

It is revealed in the Peasant's Quest Movie Trailer that Peasantry has a monarchy—namely, the heretofore nameless King of Peasantry. There is another place called Parchmenty, a few kingdoms over in the "uppity, know-it-all realm" of Frillscholar.

Also, in the Movie Preview, there is a new map shown which slightly resembles the old one, and reveals new places such as:

  • Clackum Falls
  • The Frumpish Mountains
  • Trogdor's Keep
  • The Slightly Dangerous Fields
  • That Weird Tree (you know)

Homestar's other new mouth

  • According to @StrongBadActual, a few friends of The Brothers Chaps recorded the lackluster crowd sounds in 2017.
  • This email was sent in via Tweet by @El_Buendonado, using the template suggested by @StrongBadActual (including the closing "Woefully yours").
  • This is the first appearance of Homestar's new mouth on the website, indicating curiosity or confusion. Its first documented usage was in a Dad's Garage presentation on June 13, 2015.
  • This is the first time Senor Cardgage has smiled.
  • The Exact Same's YouTube autoplay preview can be found in the Flash file using a seek bar.
  • The short-lived format Betaflop-D had a website. It is currently unknown if the The Brothers Chaps actually made this site, or a dedicated fan. It has since been taken down, but is available through Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

Remarks

  • For about two weeks, this email's title linked to sbemail 206 on the New Stuff menu. As a result, sbemail 206's TV Time Toons Menu preview was shown instead of this email's preview, which could only be viewed through the URL. This was fixed on August 31, 2017.
  • On October 2nd, 2022, the Flash file was updated to one named "sbemail207_new3.swf". This lowered the target Flash and ActionScript versions for better compatibility with Ruffle, which at the time did not support ActionScript 3.

Inside References

  • "Thang ding" is a spoonerism.
  • "Betaflop-D" is a portmanteau (see below).
  • Senor Cardgage instructs Strong Bad to mash play.
  • The Robot's power outlet is used in the chain of adapters between the "beige enough device" and the Telebision.
  • "Family Might/Could" is very similar to "might could".
  • Homestar uses cinnamon as facial hair once again.
  • Strong Sad pronounces "cursed" as "cursèd".
  • Strong Sad smiles when he finds out that he's been cursed.
  • "Hot Jones Investment" shares a name with the warm drink from A Death Defying Decemberween.
  • Homestar last addressed someone with the surname "Jankroe" in Costume Commercial.
  • Homestar calls Cardgage's character video "[his] first rated-R movie", echoing his being banned from playing M-rated video games in slumber party.
  • Cardgage's character video being rated R, as well as the difficulty in watching it, echoes a similar situation in rated.
  • "Couch Z" is reminiscent of Homestar's faux-backwards pronunciation of "Coach Z" in an Easter egg in alternate universe.
  • Kevin's camera shows up again as the camera Strong Bad plans to use for Cardgage's video.

Real-World References

  • The page title is a play on the term "holier-than-thou".
  • The cursed Betaflop-D tape is a reference to The Ring, a 2002 adaptation of a 1998 Japanese horror movie about an unsettling cursed VHS tape that would kill whoever watched seven days later.
  • Betaflop-D is a reference to three data formats that have faded into obscurity. Two of them tried and failed to supplant VHS tapes; Betamax, a video format by Sony which is best known for failing to compete in the 1980s despite being technically superior, and D-VHS, a last-ditch effort to put higher-quality digital video on a cassette in the face of the growing threat of DVD. Both were ultimately flops, and traditional VHS remained commonplace until the mid-2000s. Then there's the 5.25 inch floppy disk inside the cassette, the outdatedness of which had been alluded to previously.
    • In addition, the name "Betaflop" also alludes to floating point operations, a measure of computer performance in sizes such as "teraflop".
  • Cardgage's line to Coach Z is a mangled version of a line from the song "Centerfield" by John Fogerty: "Put me in, coach, I'm ready to play!"
  • The VHS box at the end greatly resembles the typical RCA/Columbia Pictures Home Video box used around the early to late 1980s, with the font and the red border on the front and side alluding towards it.
