Question: Does the trope actually include games where shooting the hostages only causes the player to lose points rather than being hurt or killed? Because the description does not include that.

Hi
Keep Until Better Image Suggested
$50 a day, plus expenses
I think I have an idea for an image, though I'm not sure where to get a good shot of it.
I'm fairly certain that some Light Gun Game, (I want to say Virtua Cop, but I'm not certain) upon shooting a civilian, will have a large red X across the civilian with text that says "LIFE LOST" or something similar.
Not sure if that would work.
Don't take life too seriously. It's only a temporary situation.
Is there any sort of "image free pass" round up anywhere on this wiki so those who don't know that XKCD is fair game no matter what can find that out?

"IP discussion: thread reasons, policies, other stuff"
mentions xkcd, but it doesn't have a list of all such webcomics, no.

Hi
AFAIK, xkcd is the only one that's given us such permission.

Hi
Clock's up; locking for inactivity. No action is to be taken based on this thread. Since the consensus is Keep Until Better Image Suggested, I'll tag the page accordingly.

The picture on Hostage Spirit-Link is a full strip from a webcomic, which I believe is not allowed on grounds of copyright. Regardless, it is really only a page quote in GIF format; it doesn't add anything visually. I recommend using the text from the image as page quote, then brainstorming for a new pic. A possible option is a few panels from this webcomic
, but I'm hoping people have a better idea too.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
