Wut? Needs examples stat! Back to YKTTW.

Yeah, there might be a good trope in there, but it needs some serious rewriting at the very least, if not just cutting and rebuilding it from scratch.

Cut. Really specific, vaguely described, poorly named (and this is coming from a huge fan of Sir Gawain And The Green Knight).

And here I would of thought The Green Knight would of been someone who fights for the earth in Green Message type show.

^Nah, it's a reference to a very famous piece of Arthurian legend.
But given that the work isn't an example of the trope, and the character who comes closest ("closest" being a very relative term here) to being an example isn't the Green Knight, I have to wonder why the launcher picked that name.

I see the Awesomeness.
Agree, send it back to YKTTW.
Fight smart, not fair.
I wouldn't be in favor of sending it to YKTTW. I think it should just be gone.
It's far too specific.

Thanks for the input. I will try to cutlist it again and see what happens.

Sorry guys I was the original guy who wrote the trope. I wasn't thinking about the name. It came from a quote in the wire where Avon tells stringer I bleed red you bleed green. It was my first trope. I got lazy and stopped at the example parts anyway the idea was a blood knight who just gets so ambitious that being a blood knight in and of itself doesn't satisfy him or her anymore. Stringer was the first to come to mind but the more I think about Xena seems to fit too.

I tried to cut-list this recently, but the request was declined, so I'm assuming the mods thought there was something decent that could be done with this, and I guess I agree.
It's pretty confusingly written, but I guess it comes down to being about a Blood Knight who gets bored with being one?
The title is really odd/nonindicative. The article doesn't reference the title. If it was taken from Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, then it's a misinterpretation. The Green Knight challenges people, but he's really a spy for Morgan Le Fay or something, not a Blood Knight.
