Even in the case of Leap Day, we'd realistically only need to use it every four years, which isn't repetitive at all.

Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessYeah, though as I said, they did it on February 28th this year. Still, "realistically" is the right word.

Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)TIL I got pinged to this thread in September and I was completely unaware.
Anyway maybe something Star Wars-related for May 4th? Maybe Luke, I Am Your Father?
TRS Queue | Works That Require Cleanup of Complaining | Troper WallThat one is at 4000+ and I don't remember it being used... I suppose it works.
Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)Mother's Day for most countries falls on May 8th this year. I nominate Almighty Mom for it, as it only has 446 wicks but is a positive trope about moms. And for May Day tomorrow, maybe Working Class Anthem? Would need a photo ASAP, however. Or put it as American/Canadian Labor Day. It could use some wicks, 'cause it's only at 30!
Why not use a riff off that like Luke, I Might Be Your Father for May 4th? I think it would be funny, plus it'd shine the spotlight on a smaller trope.

Vehicle-Based Characterization | Grief-Induced Split | Locker MailOK, Imma need y'all to drop the Leap Day thing now. It's been noted, but it's also been a whole two months.
There's a Star Wars-named trope in the queue for May 4.
Edited by Synchronicity on Apr 30th 2022 at 6:55:28 AM
How far forward is the queue set right now? So that I don't harp on anything that already has a trope planned and stuff!
Also I can't figure out the reason for today’s trope, rip. UNESCO International Jazz Day.

Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessSpeaking as a Non-American, nice. Great for you people, in fact.
Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)I mean, our country's descending into a chaotic nightmarescape, but on the plus side... fireworks are pretty.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessOh, sweet, today's is one of mine.
congratulations
Mine happened a year or so back with Colorblind Mode. Honestly, when you have at least ten decent tropes, one of them is going to get featured eventually.

Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)I have been adding a lot of tropes that are at least 2 years old and have less than 100-500 wicks to the Featured tropes queue. I thought I'd run out but apparently there's a quite a few tropes like that.
Edited by MacronNotes on Jul 31st 2022 at 12:46:20 PM
Macron's notesNew tropes tend to grow slower than older tropes due because they get less exposure and haven't become as well-known. That's not to say they can't reach like 200+ wicks in this time... it's just ucnommon.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessIs J'accuse! an actual trope or it's just a thing people say sometimes?

TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupI figured someone would ask about—I think it's not much more than a stock phrase. It's just people saying the phrase.
Macron's notesFor such an obvious concept, I'm surprised on the lack of examples with Unbreakable Bones.
TroperWall / WikiMagic CleanupIt feels like one of those things that I don't even make mental note of because it's so common.
Currently Working On: Incorruptible Pure PurenessAyo, Our Perytons Are Different is up and it has the image I suggested for it! So yeah, kinda nice seeing the pic on the main page.
Victor of HGS S320 | "There's rosemary, that's for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember."Surprised today’s isn’t Mayan Doomsday.
Oh man, that could have been a great opportunity.
Currently mostly inactive. An incremental game I tested: https://galaxy.click/play/176 (Gods of Incremental)Seems like something they might have done before.
Ever wanted to see the most inexplicably horrifying intro to a game ever?Agreed, so we can't at all fault them (and honestly the trope picked today is still good and things don't get too repetitive if we get different tropes on similar days). Still, today is the 10th anniversary, so I think it would have been very much justified.
Maybe feature YouTube Kids' Channel sometime in 2023, as that'd be the 10th anniversary of when these channels have gotten infamous.

Yeah, even Easter Episode as that was launched only recently and has under 100 wicks.
