How many pages are there in homestuck
There are currently 7405 pages.
Ok, quick question: why do unsuccessful sessions exist? If the players do something wrong (like leaving the sprites unprototyped, losing to the Black King or fucking up in general), shouldn't that be just another doomed timeline? By extention, every session should bring to the creation of a new universe if the alpha timeline is followed, no?

The Alpha timeline includes failed sessions. They fail because they are meant to.
Sorry if this has been asked before, but if every game session requires one Time player and one Space player, then why is that not the case for the Alpha kids session?
The Alpha kid session was meant to be an 8-players session. Once the Beta kids arrived Jade and Dave became their Time and Space players.
so in a6i5 john sticks his hand into the juju and his hand is scattered about everywhere, it shows examples of it in past panels but are those actually there?

Yes, if you go back to those panels the hands will be there. This is the first retconning done in the series.
So forgive me if I am wrong, but the point of Sburb/Sgrub is to create a universe right? So that would mean the trolls are done with their game, meaning they should be able to populate their universe with humans, the humans being John, Rose, Dave, and Jade. Than they sort of cheated by creating the scratch and made the pre-scratch kids, who are apparently relatives to the Beta kids, so up at this point The Trolls have beaten the game, they created the new universe, populated it with humans, then the Humans cheated and created half-universe based off of their universe, which is why its so similar to their session. Then the Alpha kids were created, and that is homestuck up to this point? Once again sorry for sending this through fanmail, this was too large for the askbox to handle.
The trolls beat the game but they never got to claim their prize because Bec Noir destroyed the door.
And the Beta kids didn’t create a new universe. The Scratch changes the universe, it doesn’t make a new one.
Hey, IIRC Liv Tyler was sent in the green box to protect John when he most needed it from Jack, but also in the flash [s] Jack: ascend we see Jack use the green box to kill the black queen to get his powers. Does this mean that if Jade never sent the green box the session would have went smoothly, as Jack would have never ascended?

But if it wasn’t for Liv Tyler taking the tumor to Derse, Dave and Rose wouldn’t have been able to paradoxically created the Green Sun and if the Green Sun didn’t exist then Bec wouldn’t have existed which means he wouldn’t have lead Jade to John’s gift which lead to her befriending John. And if she never befriended John and the others she wouldn’t have been able to play the game.
which flash is toased-blog talking about? :o

The 1/19/15 update. It doesn’t say it on the site but in the url instead of a page number it says shes8ack so people have been refering to that flash sequence as that.
How did/do the mod(s) decide which characters to have tags about? I'm not asking for additional tags or anything cause adding Ancestors or something would be crazy cause that's an extra 12 tags not counting alternative names (Signless/Sufferer for example) and that's not even counting needing to go through I don't even know how many pages worth of content.

I dunno, I just tag whatever character the fact is about except if it’s an ancestor then I just tag it ancestor.
You know what ive noticed? Homestuck is extremely christmas. Ok so look: time players' associated colors are red: caliborn, dave, the megidos. Space players' is green: calliope, jade, the maryams. These are the only two aspect/color pairings: green and red. In addition, let's look at the timespace kids: jade and dave. Their lands are frost and FROGS and HEAT and clockwork. Frogs are associated with green and heat with red. Also, remember when dave and jade alchemized crappy xmas things together?
Sorry... But what is retcon

Retcon is short for Retroactive Continuity. This is the process of changing facts that were already stated. John is going back and changing parts of the story that were told years ago. And the changes that he is having an effect on how the story will continue to be told, such as Vriska still being alive.
