Here is how the game works: The above troper (Troper 1) will provide a scene/premise for The next poster (Troper 2) to work with. This may be done with either a video clip of any fictional work or through written text. If posting a video clip, please remember four things:
Then, it's the next poster's job (Troper 2) to become the director and "redirect the scene" to make it more interesting — whether "interesting" means simply better, funnier, more awkward, or just outright be cruel with it. Afterwards, (s)he will either share another video clip or write out a new scene.
