Just a Face and a Caption (CROWNER): Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance

Go To

...neither of which even explain each other. I have absolutely no idea who that is, what is supposed to happen in the image or what the caption means.

Edit: First post and an instant fail. That should be Astonishingly Appropriate Appearance

Any image suggestions that aren't just an example above the example line?

Ah, "using fire powers" and looking that way, gotcha. Was looking at the GK suggestion too much, which I think is as bad as or worse than the current image.

Gambling King just looks like a guy who is dressed up like a playing card. Which isn't even necessarily this trope any more than Batman is this trope because he LOOKS LIKE A BAT.

[up] Batman would be this trope if he were born with a bat-like face. Gambling King counts for the same reason, as I understand it.

Is there any way we can do something with Peter Pettigrew?

[up][up] My point is GK doesn't look like it, even if he is an example. It looks like a guy who loves cards, dressed up like a playing card king. I look at that guy and I don't think "gee, he happens to look like a playing card." I think "that man is dressed up like a playing card."

Peter looks kind of rat like but not enough to qualify for a picture. I don't know if I would even say "rat" if I hadn't seen the movie.

... between what?

Personally, I think a quality upgrade of current would be best.

Between 3, 13.1, 13.2, 17, and 29. Everything's had some support except 29. 13.1 and 13.2 are the same character as the current but with quality upgrade.

Hrrm. I never voted on this crowner yet the wiki says I have. Weird.

Yeah, this bug's been 'round since some time now.

So why are we making crowners if we know they are bugged and faulty? It's also pretending I voted.

Because not using them is even harder to do.

I can edit the votes I never casted. Great, we'll have to ditch this one.

[up][up]Yes, but that's beside the point, if it's registering the votes of people who haven't voted, then the results are obviously faulty, and you can't rely on people figuring out that a crowner they've not voted and don't plan to vote on thinks they have so they can go correct their votes (Plus vote correction is flawed since I can't unvote. Only vote up and down, even when im neutral towards a suggestion).

Because not using them is even harder to do.

So... using a solution we know is broken is preferable than tallying votes by post like we've done several times.

Yeah, vote-by-post takes some babysitting. Also, I think we thought the problem fixed some time ago.

I've unhooked the crowner and put a manual one in the OP.
