By definition, every straight example of this will either be Unspoken Plan Guarantee or a subversion of it.

I don't know how old it is, but it never went through YKTTW and it only has 29 wicks.

The only thing I can think of that's even remotely distinct from Unspoken Plan Guarantee would be turning it into something like an Unspoken Plan Gag where the tendency to cut away when a plan is being hatched is lampshaded (like the Family Guy and Futurama examples. But I don't see the value in just an Unspoken Plan page on its own.

Toss it into Unspoken Plan Guarantee for me as well.

Technically (with a name like 'Unspoken Plan') it's about the plan itself and not the expectation that it will always succeed, but I agree that in practice the distinction is probably irrelevant.

I think the only proposal that's been made is to merge into Unspoken Plan Guarantee. Shall we do a single-prop crowner?

Any examples that breaks the "Guarantee" part can be added to Unspoken Plan Guarantee as subvertions, or other forms of playing with.

Calling the crowner for the proposed action.

[up] That's done. Is this one ready to go away?

EDIT: NVM, just saw the holler. Locking up.
