The image on Go Look At The Distraction appears to actually be an example of the similar trope Look Behind You. I don't have a replacement at the moment, but seeing as a misleading image is worse than no image, I would recommend that we pull the current, then worry about finding a replacement.

I disagree; it seems to fit the trope well enough to be at Keep Until Better Image Suggested level.

Read through the trope carefully. Go Look At The Distraction explicitly states that it requires at lest the intention to make the character leave the immediate area.

I think it's misleading. That's not a Room Shuffle. Pull.

This is supposed to be kind of like sending someone on a Snipe Hunt, but the image shows something else: "hey look that way".

I am with the OP: pull and wait for suggestions

Yeah, the current image is actively misleading.

Agree to pull this for not illustrating the trope.

So, any ideas on a replacement?

Clock is set. We've got enough consensus to pull the current, so it's gone.
