They were meant to be "child of the crate" and "squeals a lot", but yes, they're definitely rather tongue in cheek hero names :)

In the amazing page where every crewmember has drawn Kitty, Mikkel accidentally wrote 'Missekatt' with double t at first. He erased the last t shortly after.

Although his eyes were closed when he used the eraser and accidentally erased an s first.

I did not notice, thanks for sharing! Mikkel also erased the space between the s and the e.

For a brief moment Norway had succesfully occupied the UK and changed their flag to look more like Norways own flag.


Songs were almost made about Eide the Conqueror.

Aaahahah I wouldn't even have noticed! That's the most best flag.
I want that flag in my signature for 'English'.
(After all, I my English is 'Some. Enough.', not 'fluent'.)

And now the flag is back to the usual flag, which looks like the Icelandic flag.

As we know, there has been a second print run of SSSSvol1 sold exclusively through HiveWorks. Now an anonymous user has edited the wiki page on Dalsnes, stating that the World Map in it matches the online version again (whereas the books of the original print run had various edits in it). That would make the second print run into a second edition IMHO. Could someone who bought one of those books please confirm that?

regardless of the map differences, some differences (corrections mostly) have been spotted between the two editions, so you're right to call them that. They're on the forum somewhere, most likely in the "oh there's mistakes with the print" thread, whatever it was called.
But I concur, is there anyone to compare???

Having more money than sense I bought copies from both print runs, and I don't think that's correct. I'll advise when I've been able to check.

So...I don't have any way to verify this, but I swear when Onni was first introduced, his listed profession was "Military: Mage, Day Scout." In the course of getting feedback for a fic I'm working on, it was pointed out to me that he hasn't left Keuruu's walls in eleven years. Which...would make the "scout" part kind of difficult, but I'd never thought about it before. So I checked the character page and it just lists his profession as "Mage". The page on which he's introduced says "Military: Mage" but it kind of looks like it might have been edited (the rest of the lines have dots to fill up the empty space, but that one doesn't). Does anyone else remember him being listed as a Day Scout at one time, or am I just crazy?

Actually... I hazily recall that he was introduced as a day scout as well..

Edit: However when looking through the wayback machine, the earliest snapshot is june 2014 and that shows his occupation as just being a Mage

I wasn't here back in the day, but that is a mighty suspicious lack of little dots and weird placing of words. It looks pretty edited.

I mean, I've had plenty of moments where I realized that due to a characters nature something else makes completely no sense and I have to change something that has been established in my head for years.

Hmm. Well, I'm glad at least I'm not the only one who has that memory, hazy or no. And the date on the page is March 2014, so it's possible it was edited between then and June.

Yeah, I imagine that's what happened. It makes more sense for him to not be a scout, but it is annoying that I have to go back through and tweak this fic now. *sigh*

Kiraly, Solokov
I'm with you guys, because I exactly remember that Onni was introduced as a day scout. I recently tested a character page and also noticed that Onni just a mage now, but I didn't attach any special significance.
