What would be the best way to fix the page?
At issue:
ProblemUnwinnable By Design is attracting misuse for any situation that is literally unwinnable (deliberately made impossible/hopeless/etc.) — misuse is estimated at 45 percent based on various samples.Trope definition:Video Games (e.g. Adventure Games by Infocom or Sierra) where a player can easily make their game Unwinnable by taking (or failing to take) certain reasonable actions whose consequences are not discovered until later; because the developers made no attempts to prevent Unwinnable situations from developing. How do we fix the misuse? Not all of these options are mutually exclusive. +2 (yeas:2 nays:0) Merge back to UnwinnableDo not rename. Merge the definition back into the Unwinnable supertrope and clean up wikilinks. 0 (yeas:1 nays:1) Trope TransplantMove Unwinnable By Design to a better title that won't attract misuse. But instead of redirecting the old title, create a new trope for "intentionally unwinnable" games/situations. -1 (yeas:1 nays:2) Rename Unwinnable By DesignPreserve the definition, brainstorm for a title that better conveys the nature of the trope and won't attract future misuse. -1 (yeas:1 nays:2) Definition ChangeChange the definition of Unwinnable By Design to a situation where the creators deliberately made it potentially unwinnable (what it's being misused as). Move current examples to Unwinnable By Mistake.Total number: 4. Number shown: 4.
