MSPA Reader

MSPA Readers are people who read MS Paint Adventures, obviously. In the Incipisphere, their planet is the Land of Stumps and Dismay. Their Strife Specibus is pistolkind.

They are the people actually trying to play the game. MSPA readers type in commands to the game, trying to accomplish some goal that is set by the game, or to try to see if the game will do some silly event that they would really like to see.

However, the game usually ends up resulting in something inexplicably unexpected, and this may leave the reader with no choice but make a personal visit to a particular tree stump.

MSPA readers sometimes donated money to the Tip Flask in order to receive custom-made commands, and an entire series of commands have been completely Donation Funded, some of them creating characters that have become very popular, but this function has been discontinued. These donation-funded characters and pages are making their way into Homestuck, as Jack Noir looks pretty familiar, and Homestuck's Intermission involved the Midnight Crew.

Some readers have taken the time to document the game as a strategy guide of sorts.

I'm sure it's very useful in helping get past some of the really long parts of the game.

The Player
MSPA readers are collectively known in game as The Player, and can have actions in the game themselves, such as HS 2708 (screwing around with a Sylladex), or can enact actions that go outside of the game, such as pausing or going back to the title screen. They are mostly attributed to being the ones that give the commands, though.

The first appearance of an MSPA Reader was in Problem Sleuth, shortly after DMK used LADDER TO HELL. On that page, the two commands were: PS 1743 (MSPA readers: React to update.) or PS 1744 (MSPA readers: Never mind. Continue.)

Deciding upon MSPA readers: React to update would lead you to a page where an MSPA reader is seen sitting at his computer, excited about a new update. After looking at the new update, the reader promptly draws a pistol (presumably from his pocket) and judging by previous reactions to the nearby stump, it is likely the reader would proceed to off themselves.

Statistics
Like characters, the Player can gain levels and points, although these don't really bear any significance.
 * Matching Skill Level: HS 2711 (YUKON HERO: LEGACY OF THE FROSTBITE AMPUTEE)
