Unused Lines

All subtitles are ripped directly from the game's english.langdb script file. Any errors or inconsistencies are intentionally preserved.

Some lines in the game script were never recorded. In lieu of an ID, those lines will have their offsets listed instead.

sbemails

Two sbemails were scripted but never recorded, and here they are. The actual typed emails aren't in the game anymore, if they ever were before.

Dear Strong Bad

How come all the best cartoons only ever have 1 girl in
them and like dozens of guys? It seems weird.

0x1FF73 It can seem weird and confusing until you understand the
science behind it, Ana! Luckily, scientists have given us
the Golden Ratio, which says exactly how many chicks to
dudes you can have in something before it starts being
something FOR GIRLS. And that number is 1 chick for...
any number of dudes. So I guess it's not really a "ratio."
But anyway.
0x20156 One girl in a comic, and she can be the main guy's
girlfriend, and go along on adventures, and prove she can
make it in a man's world. Two girls in a comic, and then
they gotta start fighting over the main guy, and all of a
sudden it's a ROMANCE comic, and they've got whole
story-arcs about buying shoes. One girl in a band
(ideally on bass), and you can still rock pretty hard.
More than one girl, and you've got the Bangles. I trust
I've made my point clear. Plus, with only one girl, you
know exactly where to go to for any girl-related issues.
Makes things a LOT simpler.

Rock on, S-to-the-B!
0x20FE4 [aside]
Could I get a ruling on that one? Ooh, 10 point reduction
for acting like you're cooler than you really are. The
Strong Badian judge did not like that one bit.
0x210C3 [reading e-mail]
I'm from VideLINKtrix, which as you know is the #1
retro-Videlectrix game fan and information site on the
internet.
[aside]
Don't know that, never heard of you, try again.
0x211B7 [reading e-mail]
We just found this ULTRA-RARE copy of Strong Bad's
Computer Game 3: Email Attack (SBCG3EA), which was
limited to a release of 100 copies in blah blah blah
boring boring dull.
0x212AE [reading e-mail]
Until now, it's only been playable on the Videlectrix
Happy Box, but I sent along a copy of the VHP emulator.
0x21364 [reading e-mail]
Keep it real! _=_ROMReav3r_=_
0x213CA Yeah, you're dumb and your name is stupid, etc. But about
this so-called "Strong Bad Computer Game." I can't believe
Videlectrix would make a game about me without my
permission! I gotta check this out.
0x214DF [process: very scratchy low-fi 8-bit sound]
CHECK E-MAIL!
0x21550 Whoa. I can see why Videlectrix didn't tell me about that
game. It kinda sucks. And it made my brain... go...
inside-out. I gotta go lie down.

Videlectrix Matt
Who is this? How did you get inside our computer?
This conversation would have played out before getting the Strong Bad shirt.
94808064
Must be a bad connection. This is Strong Bad again. STRONG BAD.
94808192
Videlectrix Matt
Strong Bad? Sure, we can get you one of those!
94835072
You'd think I could remember where Bubs' Concession Stand is by now. Bubs' house is automatically added to the map once the player passes it.
This line, and a couple others, suggest that the cutscene of Strong Bad
chasing after the Trogdor arcade cabinet wasn't part of the original script.
94839296
Any good map needs a place for Trogdor's Lair. Where should it go? Once the player gets in Trogdor's Lair, they can't escape, leaving the
map and this line inaccessible.
97883264
I'm not sure if that cyberspacey Videlectrix Mainframe is really a "place,"
but I'm gonna put it on my map anyway.
This is another location that's automatically added to the map.
97883776
I better put that big ol' pile of crates on my map before Super Marzipan
closes it off again.
This is another location that's automatically added to the map.

House of Strong

Strong Sad
Based on his trajectory and rate of travel, not accounting for variances
in velocity due to friction and cabinet-chafing, he should be halfway to
The Stick right about now!
Alternate dialogue for asking Strong Sad about Trogdor, which also supports
the Trogdor chase cutscene being added later on.
90784256
Strong Sad
Where are you going? You can't fight Trogdor without the right tools!
Different dialogue for trying to exit the house without the cabinet key.

The Field

91005696
No fair! How am I supposed to get up there without platforms and girders? This was probably supposed to be triggered by clicking on the rubble that
Marzipan makes after she goes ape, but the rubble disappears after
that cutscene in the final game.
91005696
Bubs
I don't care how you do it, just get rid of her!
Or at least give her a banana or somethin'!
91007104
Aww, nice try Poopsmi...fixit...whatever. I guess there's just no way we're
getting up there until we get rid of Marzipain. Now get back in my
inventory before I have to pay you overtime.
Trying to use the Poopsmith / Mista Fixit on the rubble would prompt this.
Since the rubble being there at all would confuse the issue of how to solve
this puzzle, it was removed and these lines were rendered inaccessible.

Crates

Sound ID Sound Subtitles Comments
91851904
Much like the wounded miniboss with one energy bar left, the stray crate
is easy prey for the wily Strong Bad...
An alternate conversation for trying to break the crate without Boxer Joe.
The actual conversation's more clear that a video game character is needed
to open them.
91852032
Errrp!
91852160
Man, that thing's shut up tight!
91852288
If this was a videogame, I'd just punch my way into that crate!
91857408
Ring the bell, ref! A second conversation for trying to make Boxer Joe destroy an unsnaked crate.
91857536
Aw c'mon! It kinda looks like a snake...sorta.
91859200
All right snakes-on-crates, it's time for a re-match! Originally, the player would get the light musket and the medkit
from the same area...and, once it respawned, from the same crate! Thankfully,
this somewhat unintuitive piece of game design was scrapped, and an additional
crate with a medkit was added to the Peasantry Inn.
91859328
Wow, this really MUST be one of those infinitely-replenishing
video game boxes!
91861248
I hope these crates don't run out any time soon. It turns out, they did.

Videlectrix Mainframe

91468544
I bet the Fun Machine in my bedroom is the only place in the world
anyone is still playing "Gel-Arshie's Pro Fruitboarder."
Should be triggered after viewing SB's bedroom from inside the
Gel-Arshie game, but it seems to be bugged and never plays.

Hey, watch it, Mac! Guy should put up some of them warning cones.
Okay, back into my inventory, Mista Fixit!
After the secret ladder is fixed and the box plummets down,
Strong Bad would have berated Mista Fixit with this line.
97515136
Homsar
You've unlocked the secret of ultimate waffles!
One of the original ideas for the secret ladder scene was to have
the camera pull back to reveal "some simply funny tableau."
Removing this line cuts Homsar out of the episode entirely.
97934464
That's a good idea, but I don't think the Algebros know how to use
decimal points. I'll stick with level 1.1 for now.
Dialogue that would have rewarded a player's clever use of the
Algebros on the Current Level number with a funny quip.
97936128
I won't need those extra lives. Nothing left around here that can kill me. The extra lives can't be clicked once the enemies leave. Oops.

I've got to get closer! Items can be used anywhere in the room in the final game.
91829120
I'm too far away!

Other Unused Text

Two placeholder messages for the Gel-Arshie game are still in the game's script.

At 0x44467:

PLAYTESTERS:
Sorry, the Gel-Arshie game isn't ready yet!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:
Gel-Arshie rides his surfboard and collects CHERRIES, APPLES,
and STRAWBERRIES for points. The more fruit he absorbs,
the more points he gets, racking up big combos.

Professor Pineapple fires fresh pineapple slices at him. If
he gets hit, he loses a life.

At 0x445E7:

PLAYTESTERS:
When Strong Bad starts playing, the screen fills with red fruit from the Professor's pinapple gun.

Gel-Arshie jumps once and racks up a massive combo that overflows the high score. Gel-Arshie hits the kill screen and then...
