The 1936 alternate universe would provide a good opportunity for a black and white episode, an idea which has been tossed around these forums a while back (see here) and apparantly has circulated in the office for much longer even (see post 15). If they are going to do one any time soon, this would be the most auspicious time.
That would rock!!!An old timey episode...Or maybe
SB finds a way to send himself back in time!!!
He goes to the old timey land and once he gets back
H*R is foolin with the time machine and SB gets sent to
20X6!!!but concidering that in the old times it would be
harder to make a time machine I don't know...But hey,
its just a game, telltale can do whatever they want with it!
I herd about The Awesome Game 4 Attraktive People! You should have a land with several kingsdoms that are connected by dimensonal portals that connexct to other worlds like kingdom hearts and then you and you're friends all meet up with cartoon caracters and teem up with super fighting powers!!
That would be so great, Love,

Strong Bad: You make a great couple of badly misspelled and grammatically woeful points there, BRITTNEY WRITTEN IN ALL CAPS.
I mean, why would I want to have a game based soley around my off-the-chart levels of awesome when I can just have one that just copies everything that those RectangleSoft company guys or the Smashing Brothers guys already did?
As great as it would be to have the mega-franchise team up game, I don't think that I wanna bother with all of those legal wranglings and multi-layered copyright trademark hogtyings, that it would take just to have to share screen time with a bunch of other well known characters that might threaten to shoehorn in on my style.
Hecks no to that! Also you should think about legal proceedings to change your name to being less caps lock-y. I doubt that middle school role call or company picnics can be very much fun for you when everyone has to shout your name loudly everywhere you go.
Oh it's all smiles and laughter at first but it's gotta get painfully old, sooner or later. Probably sooner than later.
Better just stick to that embarrassingly typoed, unoriginal screen name with the unnecessary number tacked on the end-action you got going on.

Beautiful. Telltale can't refuse to put this in season 2!
This post is on the long side, but bear with me here (or skip to the last paragraph; either one, really)...
In that recent On the spot episode, look at the demonstration from roughly 22:10 onwards. Notice how after passing by Bubs', Strong Bad goes on to arrive at Strong Badia, the Gremlin, the photo booth, the drive-thru and The Stick, all without any delay or map use !. You can even see the Gremlin from Strong Badia and the booth from the Gremlin!
Note the icon that briefly appears in the top left of the screen at each new place. The box points at the map icon, and neither appears when going to Bubs' using the map nor when going to Strong Badia the second time. From this we may conclude that it means "location added". Location Added. Location NOT Added.
(For more convincing, how about the fact that none of these locations were on the map before going to Bubs', or that there being five of them is consistent with the empty space in the top row (Strong Badia then being directly behind Bubs'.)
But waittaminute! This can mean only one thing: FREE ROAMING! Yes, imagine just walking from one place in Free Country USA to another without any noticeable lag and without needing anything more than your intimate knowledge of its spatial arrangement. What if I say that's the real reason they're taking a bit longer?
Not all environments are accessible without load (for instance, arriving at Marzipan's house or Strong Bad's house has a load), but many of the environments in out in the outdoors in Homestar Ruiner are explorable without load times. It's very cool!
Mmm, suddenly your location choices get an added strategic element. My awesomeness estimate just went up another notch. (Has there ever been an adventure game with this kind of free movement?)
Thanks for not denying it.
Would time cchange like day to night and if not... NO CLUB TECHNOCHOCOLATE!!! anyway it would be cool at night. You know pour rotten milk on Marzipan's prized petunias while she's asleep, climb carrot and Kazoo Hill, Club Technochocolate. And just walk around and see the nightlife(maybe).
If so the this would probably be a cool time tracker
Time: 5:00 A.M

Evening--Night
Midnight
Or Maybe just that Strong bad Clock thing

A day and night feature is not that important. While still cool, some plot points may rely on time of day, and me waiting 12 hours just to eat toast in the morning is not happening. Although, it would extend the game length...
Do we all understand yet that Telltale is not going to answer our questions unless the information is trivial or has already been released? That goes for almost every video game company. Why would Telltale be any different?
I have come up with an insane and unlikely but completely awesome theory concerning those map areas that exist in the same space (Strong Badia, the Gremlin, etc.). I think that there is a possibility, however slim, that moving those things around on the map actually changes their positions in the free-roaming area. We could be able to wield the power of God... or a really overzealous geographer.
Edit: I've thought of the problem of what would happen if a seperately loaded area (like Strong Bad's house) was placed between two or more free-roamers or groups thereof. If my crazy theory is correct, they would be split into two or more seperate areas.

Woo! Speculation!

No. Just because Old Timey is Fun Timey doesn't mean every other time is not. Future Timey is Fun Timey too.
Hmmmm... Dude what if you could choose a costume
for SB!!!
For the win.
In the words of Michael Scott... "That's what she said!"

^Disregard that, 'tis merged now.

PS: I'll be looking for the piece of paper with the special name that will get me into Club Technochocolate!:D
