Gamzee never actually went god tier so why did he bother creating the costume?

To make people think he did.
what does retconning mean?

It means changing a previously stated fact.
Ok I get that post-scratch John made the alpha kids, but when, why, and how did he make them?
Anonymous
Pre-scratch John made the alpha kids towards the end of Act 4.
Ok lets see if I got this straight... On the ship JOhn's denizen knew about original John's time adventures so it killed retcon John (and davesprite) so there wouldnt be two Johns, leaving Jade alone for three years where she goes to sleep and meets an alternate Callie who tells her stuff. Much later Jane kills Roxy before Vriska puts her to sleep. Original Roxy and John will now enter the retcon universe with LOWAS

Yeah, pretty much.
Meta question: How in the world do you remember so much about Homestuck? Did you major in MSPAology in college?

Gosh I wish I could major in that. I just have a good memory and I usually check the comic/wiki before I saying anything I’m not 100% positive about.
About the Gamzee's Dream Self thing, isn't it implied that Gamzee doesn't die in any Timeline, Dream Self or not? The only Timeline where we've seen that happen didn't even become doomed, it was erased from ever being by John's retconning. And the lack of any Gamzee Ghost in the Dream Bubbles (Jadesprite showed to have been in the Bubbles it's to be assumed they have separate ghosts) would indicate it's still. Sort of perhaps drifting in the Furthest Ring? You can't keep the clown down. Sadly.

All ghost Gamzee are in the same place, a bubble separated from all the rest, all of them lying in a great giant horn pile and eating pie.
Do you think things could have turned out differently had Gamzee been the one paralyzed? (Asking for a friend whose working on an AU)

If Gamzee had been in Tavros’s place and thrown off the cliff he probably wouldn’t have been paralyzed since he’s a highblood and more durable to damage. If that had happened though the cycle of revenge wouldn’t have started so Aradia wouldn’t have died, Terezi wouldn’t have gone blind and Vriska wouldn’t have lost her arm and eye and Tavros, obviously wouldn’t have lost his ability to walk.
How did the Condescension obtain so many powerful abilities? And did she work for Lord English at some point?
She did experiments and figured out how to use them over time. And yes, she is still under Lord English’s employment.
Do you need to complete ectobiology to win sburb?

Only if you were created through ectobiology. If you were born like the Cali’s then you don’t have to.
What happened to Gamzee's dream self? I don't remember seeing him dying, but there's no other Gamzee other than Codtier shown.
It died but it wasn’t shown in canon to make us believe that Gamzee had gone god tier.
