BlamingTheRailroadedPlayerCharacter definitely doesn't belong on this list. Like YouBastard, it can be done well, and there are games that are praised ''because'' of this. It has to be ''inherently'' bad writing to count, not just ''potentially'' bad. Also, the trope is about the character being blamed not the player, but the troper seems to be misunderstanding it.

I'd get rid of it, but it's already in edit war territory. Looks like the troper who added it really has it in for this trope judging from the tone of their edits.

Edit: Looking at that page some more, I\'m not even sure how this trope passed TLP. It\'s basically just a more specific version of YouBastard limited to games, combined with StupidityIsTheOnlyOption.
