From YKTTW
- The YKTTW that led to the Index's creation.
Seth: I really don't want to put this under
New Media Tropes. Any suggestions for an index? (It might do to put it on the sidebar once it has been finished)
Ununnilium: Hmmmmm. Yeah, there's no real higher-level index for this.
(Also,
Pen And Paper Games is still a terrible name, but I'm not sure what to use instead.
Role Playing Games would be best, really, but there needs to be a way to differentiate between these and the computer versions.)
Robert: Face to face games? Manual games? I'm not sure there's really anything better to call them.
Most games don't follow tropes, but there are tropes about them. Poker is the ultimate gambler's game, chess is the supreme intellectual game, played with death, etc. While we probably should have pages about the portrayal of various games, would we want them in the same index as pages about trope-using games?
Seth: Feel free to change any of my titles to ones more fitting. this index is a framework so we can get the ball running on this expanded media category.
HeartBurn Kid: I'm thinking {{Tabletop RPGs}} for the
D&D-alikes. Seems like a good enough name.
Ununnilium: Oooooh, I like.
Seth: Added the tropes from
Tabletop Games page so that they would have an index to call their own.
Ununnilium: ...they already have one, it's called
Tabletop Games. >>
HeartBurn Kid: Removed the
Tabletop Games tropes from this page, since they've already been moved to
Tabletop Games.
