Homestar Runner Wiki Forum

I don't know about a lot of you but if you have ever maintained a website you know that files are divided up by directories to help with organization.. right?

Like if I logged into http://www.whatever.com's FTP server and looked at the main public directory, it would have the files that would appear after whatever.com -- like http://www.whatever.com/filename.swf

Ever notice that Homestarrunner.com has almost everything in the same directory? Almost all files are just homestarrunner.com/filename.swf. Don't you think that when TBC log in that there is a huge mess of SWF files listed? I mean, that's all the emails, games, etc. minus a few! That's a lot of stuff. I wonder how they keep track of it all. Do they just remember the filenames or what?

I guess it would be kinda hard to remember each specific SBEmail.But I think I read in one of the commentary transcripts that they remembered EXACTLY which one was which.That's what I call talent.As for the rest, most of the filenames are pretty much the same as the title of whatever toon/game it is.

Well, if you spend hours working on a specific email, it becomes much easier to remember it and its number, I'd imagine.

Also they just look it up here if they can't remember an email.
