[up] yeah sure I'm all for that. But like I've already said that issue would be avoided altogether if we could just remove those discrepancies before they cause such confusion.

Also is there no way to reset our votes outright?

I'm not sure if there is.

Gosh, this trope is easy to understand but difficult to show in just ONE image, since it's dependent on a character smiling all the time. I still like my Gin Ichimaru suggestion.

Perhaps it's possible to remove a crowner? And hook another one in its place?

Or else, add two more options that are actually the same first options, but obviously starting freshly at zero. (Might get messay)

It is what it is.

I'm going to add a few more options that I found recently, if that's okay. It can't hurt, seeing as how the current options are not favored.

[up] The second doesn't count; that is a device used in the opening credits that doesn't happen in the show, and they're laughing, not smiling. The third one's not bad.

Can we stop adding both "no image" and "current image" options in crowners? They are redundant to each other.

If "current" is in the crowner and everything is downvoted, we remove the current(= no image). If "no image" is in the crowner and everything get downvoted, we do nothing(= keep current).

Personally, "no image" shouldn't be present on pages that have an image already, unless the image was so bad that it'd already been pulled.

Also, what did we all feel about gin ichimaru from Bleach?

Perhaps a good collage of him smiling?

This was the one in the first post of this thread that I made.

I like both of them. Perhaps add yours to the choices? I don't see the harm in it.

We finally have a good one from Avatar.

But [up],[up][up] are pretty good too.

They're both in.

I like the Ichimaru collages.

[up] which one on one or two?

I like two, the overlay.

Let's see if we can get some more votes.

[up] What course of action do we take if the crowner doesn't get a consensus?

[up] Then nothing happens. However, if there's more than one option that's close to consensus but not there, we'll have a runoff. In this case, that's what it's looking like...if we don't have a vote shift in the next day or two, that's probably what will happen.

[up]Oh no. What's wrong? Were you partial to the overlay version?

He was, personally I think both Gin options were bad and the overlay one was the worst (usually see that level of romanticism reserved for collages of much more bishie characters).

No, I think he's suggesting that row of smileys as the caption (note the one in the middle that's smiling). The emoticons don't work on the wiki, unfortunately.

Well, treelo, in this case, the collage serves a purpose other than for fans to slob over. He may not be a bishie, but the collage legitimately illustrates the trope.

At this point in the game, it's a little late for me to suggest an alternate arrangement of the screenshots. But I'm good for it if anyone else in interested at this stage. It doesn't bother me any.

It's been three days and we're nowhere close to getting a caption for the pic, so let's lock up and move on.

Crown Description:

The image as is doesn't effectively illustrate the trope. Here are the suggestions for new images that received the less opposition or some support.
