11 11 11

The countdown on Dirk's Cruxtruder.

Yet another number of dubious importance, 11 11 11 (and variations such as 11 11 or 111) is the arc number of the post-scratch kids and the cherubs.

Appearances as a date

• Act 6 is set on 11/11/11, also called 2X3PRONG DAY (whatever that means).
  • Dirk also mentions that the news referred to this day as “3-11”, a number frequently used in reference to another seadweller.
• Jack's tally marks marking days consist of 11 11 11, instead of the usual four.
  • The six bars in his jail cell window are also reminiscent of the sequence.
• Hiveswap is set on 11/11/1994.

Appearances as a time

• In Dirk: Synchronize, Dirk's cruxtruder starts its countdown at 11:11.
• Certain post-scratch trolls - specifically the three at the end of the hemospectrum - have numbers that are not related to their typing quirks, but instead their points in time when responding to memos, among other things (Gamzee, 420; Eridan, 311; Feferi, 380). When added together, they create 1111.
• In Hiveswap, once Joey crosses through the Cherub Portal, in Dammek's hive, she notes that the timer on it is about 11 days, and it visually looks like it reads 11:11:11:11.

Appearances relating to the characters

• When Jade sets up the password system with Kanaya, the first password is “CROOOOOOOOOOOAK”, with “precisely” “eleven” “Os!”
  • This is in reference to the two Space players' conversation they just had about the humans' Genesis Frog, which would later grow to maturity in a session and whose universe would host new players of an alien race which all reference the same number.
• Each of the post-scratch kids has 4 letters in their first name and 7 letters in their surname; 4 + 7 = 11.
• The 2x3dentkind weapons of Feferi Peixes, the Condesce, and Meenah Peixes have the same number of spikes as 11 11 11 has digits.
  • Furthering their connection to the number, Feferi and Meenah both employ emoticons with 38s (representing their crowns and goggles) which equals 11 when 3 and 8 are added.
• One of the pool ball combinations for Lord English's eyes is 1 and 11, as well one of Quarters's quarters which has the number "1" one side and "11" on the other.

The Elder Scrolls series has been referenced in Homestuck, most prominently as providing the basis for one of the Alternian alphabets. While the shared date could merely be coincidental, the description of the date as “just the sort of numerical gimmick corporations love to exploit for their big releases” may have been an allusion specifically to Skyrim.
• Jacksepticeye's third and final Hiveswap: Act 1 video, reposted on both What Pumpkin's Twitter and Tumblr, is exactly 1:11:11 long.
