I love all of the new videos! I have some ideas for more, but I have trouble uploading them. I can list my ideas if anyone is interested.

While Journal 3 has not been officially released yet, some people have gotten their hands on early copies. I was wondering if I could go ahead and put it on his character page. Don't worry I would put it behind a Spoiler thing.

I'd like to replace the current page pic with this pic

, because it shows the entire main cast. Comments?

The image quality needs to be better, in my opinion.

Is Tad Strange an Expy of Agent Dale Cooper from Twin Peaks? There are some people on Tumblr claiming he is, but I don't think he's appeared enough for me to be sure.

Also, now that Bill's answered all these questions and revealed some things, can we add some of those to the page? Like how he does in fact kill people and how he's confirmed that the author's name is Stanley?

Is Gravity Falls really an affectionate parody? It's a comedy/drama (at least that's what I'd call it) with a similar setting and many shout-outs to Twin Peaks, but it doesn't really do anything to mock the genre. It doesn't point out flaws in the genre, it doesn't make fun of stock character types (as far as I know—I'll admit I haven't seen Twin Peaks), it doesn't break the fourth wall to make fun of tropes.

Ducktective is an affectionate parody of detective shows, for example. That could go under this trope, maybe? I don't think Gravity Falls is an affectionate parody at all, despite being partially a comedy.

Any ideas about what 'Stan is not what he seems' means ? I'm pretty sure he's some sort of creature in human form, maybe not even actually related to the twins.

Would it make sense to make a Page committed to the hidden easter eggs, cyphers and such, because trying to find all of them can get rather confusing. Or should any such thing be considered WMG since a good majority of this stuff is theorizing.

I'm willing to do this but I'm unclear as to how to do this or even what to call it

We can have a page divided into folders such as one for cyphers, another for visual hints and clues( such as bill's chart and symbols), another for specific characters(Like characters that have been confirmed to be connected to bill's symbol) and so forth.

You want to have EasterEgg.Gravity Falls as a page? Well, what is currently on the page is not enough to justify a split.

Sure,but the idea as a whole is in the air.What I'm talking about is a more detailed page that can help understand everything in a whole, which I can understand if such a thing is not necessary at the time. Additionally what is under Easter Eggs is only a few examples of the many, I've noticed.

Why does everyone keep calling Dipper and Mabel Half-Identical Twins? Yes, they're twins and they are of the opposite gender, but what makes them "identical". I don't think they look that much like each other, do they? No more so than any other brother-sister pair would in real life. Plus, if what people are saying about Word of God saying Dipper has brown eyes yet Mabel has green, they aren't half-identical by that trait alone. Please, someone explain this to me.

They actually have very similar body and head shapes. The only real physical differences between the two is that, obviously, one's a boy and one's a girl, Dipper's nose is pink, Mabel is always blushing, and their hair styles are different. Take away that and they would look very identical.

Other thing, Mabel's gree eyes were retconned by Word of God himself in a twitter. The twins's eyes are officially brown.
