Hi, everyone! I initially wanted to make a larger theorypost here on FRAF, but after battling the website for four hours straight, I'm gonna cave and simplify what I wanted to write.

I am presenting some new classpecting theories, mostly about how to interrelate different classpects. There are some big parts to the theory I want to outline here:

Groups, Pairs, Quasipairs, and Antipairs: After Hussie gave us the canonical class pairs and a numeric activity scale, we came up with ways to manipulate it and yield new groupings and pairings.

Aspect Activity: We gave Aspects a numeric scale based on how closely a class matches to what that Aspect represents, or what it does.

Graphs and Rotations: We placed the numeric axes of Classes and Aspects on a coordinate grid, and implemented (and interpreted) simple geometric operations, like rotation and reflection.


The full theory can be found right here on The Classpect Connector, which is a site that I cooked up in the past two weeks to let you play around with all of this stuff.

Check out The Classpect Connector at this link.


I want to give thanks to bellCarved and duckBuster, for massive theory contributions, and Andrew Hussie for writing Homestuck. This wouldn't have been possible without you.

I also want to give special thanks to Fazzie, for tolerating my inane webdev and classpecting ranting, and to the folks in #classpecting who gave me valuable feedback on site appearance and other things like that.


Once you're done reading theory, make sure to come back here if you want to leave comments! And with that...
