This suggestion dies out in the Image Suggestion thread. Any other ideas?

Opened. I didn't see the issue with this one.

Me neither. Maybe because it doesn't show "hit point" (even though hearts are often considered a symbol for HP's)?

The trope isn't necessarily about hit points. It can also be about money, or experience, or something like that. It's about unconventional names for common point systems.

I think the problem is that I'm not sure if the trope includes point system that are unique in themselves, since then you don't have a standard name to change into something unique. In other words, you need to show what the points apply to, or what their effect is, rather than just showing some name of some kind of point.

4's not bad, but I'd like to see it at wiki size before making final judgment.

I think I prefer the first suggestion to 4.

4 is good.

The clock is past due and we don't have consensus on anything; locking up.
