Farmelle: To Kenny666, I think; at least, whoever made the article on 'Superhjältejul', pretty much in one sitting. I mean, hell. It was one advent calendar. Not many people outside of Sweden (if any) must have known of its existance, and even of those who did, not many of them seemed to like it. Then, I found that someone liked it enough to make a TVTropes page. I...I love you, guy.
** Just found this page - that'd be [[KennyMan666 me]], and why, thank you! I'd strongly doubt myself that anyone outside of Sweden cares about it, too. Seeing as how [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife TVTropes Has Ruined My Life]], I couldn't help but notice all those tropes while watching it, and figured why the hell not. Even though my reason for watching it in the first place was ShapedLikeItself - I wouldn't watch it if I didn't have the actual calendar, but I wouldn't get the calendar if I didn't plan to watch it. It was mostly a spur-of-the-moment decision when I saw the calendar at ICA.
----
{{Aspie}}: To Lightblade, for adding a link to the edit I made in the BeachEpisode page. Thank you for that, I honestly did not know there was a name for the thing I was describing.
----
@/{{Yarrunmace}}: To whoever made this awesome comeback to this HannibalLecture on the Twilight JustBugsMe page
* So you guys hate Twilight so much but lemme ask you this.... ''why'' do you all know ''so much'' about it? Have you actually ''read'' the books and ''seen'' the movies? If you answered yes...then Guess who wins? That's right...Stephanie Meyer and her publishers. And the film crew. Because guess what? For all you know, they're trying ''on purpose'' to write something because for some odd reason, you all buy the books, read the books, buy the movies, and see the movies. And you did ''just'' what they wanted...Congratulations.
** Let's see: borrowing the books off a friend? Zero dollars. Watching the film on an international flight I would have gone on anyway? Zero dollars. Getting to throw it in the face of "fans" who don't know as much as me and getting to have valid arguments for why the series sucks? Priceless. :)

{{Inkblot}}: One for the conversation [[CrowningMoment/KingdomHearts here]], referring to [[ThatOneBoss Demyx]] of KingdomHearts:

** I beat fricking XEMNAS' more easily than that guy!

{{Newtonthenewt}}: Whoever made/found [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/takethis.jpg this.]] I couldn't find what I was looking for. You found it ''and'' a LOLcat. This is the happiest I have ever been to see a [=LOLcat=]. Congratulations.
{{Citizen}}: A classic lolcat--nothing that can be attributed to the contributors here--and what came to mind when I ran across [=~If You're So Evil, Eat This Kitten~=]. Didn't know it was already uploaded.
----
{{Specialist290}}: One for whoever made the typo of protecting "Einstein's lap" in the Red Alert 2 entry under SequenceBreaking. It's probably unintentional, but it's ''hilarious''.
----
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: One MadeOfWin point to StarshipTroper for correcting the lyrics to [="MacArthur Park"=] in the [[Narm/{{Music}} Narm/Music]] entry. Everyone knows the chorus, but the verses are just as good (or bad); I had just misremembered a few of them.
* StarshipTroper: Wow, my first MadeOfWin point! Thank you for an awesome Christmas present :-)
----
DarkHunter: One MOW point to mato_hibiki for this entry on RebuildOfEvangelion:
* CrowningMomentOfAwesome - See BigDamnHeroes. Shinji is like a Panda in this brave new world. And what do Pandas do? They look sad... Right up until you piss them off, and they start [[spoiler:Shooting FrickinLaserBeams out of their eyes, and RIP YOU APART with their BARE HANDS!]] Do NOT make Shinji a sad Panda. You wouldn't like him when he's a sad Panda.

{{macroscopic}}: [[strike:A point to whoever named RougeAnglesOfSatin]] (checked the archives; they have one already but I don't know who it was) and another to {{alliterator}} for the image caption:
-->Top: A cute [[OurAngelsAreDifferent angel]]. Bottom: Acute angle. If you can't tell the difference, you're being [[IncrediblyLamePun obtuse]].
NielJacoby: Seconded on the name, but I'd like the second one more if the little cherub thingy was replaced by the [[VanHalen smoking angel baby from 1984.]] In other news, I'm off to make a page for VanHalen.
----
{{Cukeman}}: Wouldn't be surprised if this has been nominated before, but a MOW to the person responsible for the following on MetalGear:
* {{Narm}}:
-->"The raven on my head thirsts for blood!"
* NarmCharm:
-->[[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment "The raven on my head thirsts for blood!"]]
----
vicnog: A collective MOW for everyone who contributed to the Statue of Liberty entry on the GreenSkinnedSpaceBabe page. Truly hilarious.
----
UnknownTroper: A hearty MOW to whoever authored the RunningGag about Ron Howard on the page for ''CinderellaMan''. I was truly tickled!
{{Cat22}}: Wow, my first Free Hug! I humbly accept.
----
{{Peteman}} would like to nominate the the zinger from the FanFic/TheGirlWhoLived page:
* StealthParody - Some people think the series is an elaborate troll due to it being so over the top and the author's flat out denial that Rose is bisexual or a Mary Sue.
** A very in-depth StealthParody, then, because while MyImmortal was so obviously trolling that anyone who'd read the books would have known it was a mockery, this reads like an actual work by someone with power fantasies and no skill. Kind of like a poorly-written {{Eragon}} with sex.
** Isn't that redundant?
** Of course not. {{Eragon}} has no sex.
{{thatother1dude}}: That joke sucks (could that be any more [[SouthPark DERP]]?), and that natter sucks. Also, you forgot the [=FanFic/=] part of the link.
tennessean: Added in the "[=FanFic=]/" part.
----
ThinksTooMuch would like to request one for those responsible for the potholing and second and third bullets on the following (From TheEuropeanCarryAll page.)
* Stewardesses are [[RougeAnglesOfSatin fight]] attendants nowadays.
** FIGHT attendants? [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotAwesome Awesome!]]
*** That would be BattleButler.
----
vicnog: [=NeoSilverThorn=], I grant you a MOW for this gem in the InspectorGadget page:
** Well, speaking of those gadgets...where exactly do they fit? With that Gadget Copter, ''what's inside his head?!''
*** Actually, [[FridgeBrilliance that explains a lot.]]
----
{{Nohbody}}: The page history for GalaxyQuest doesn't go back far enough to identify the [[strike:guilty]] responsible parties, but IMO this exchange on that page deserves some [=MoW=] love, for whichever tropers were involved (specifically, the two lines under the trope entry itself, which is provided for context):
* PromotionToOpeningTitles: Guy, who formerly played a {{Redshirt}} on the canceled ShowWithinAShow, plays the chief of security on the relaunched series.
** Say, wasn't Tasha Yar chief of security before she was killed?
*** That's not ''right''!
(I searched all of the [=MoW=] archive pages for "galaxy", and didn't see anything. Apologies if I just missed it already mentioned elsewhere.)
----
LooneyToons: A point to whoever came up with the caption for the illo on UnwillingSuspension. And a point to whoever came up with the IncrediblyLamePun in the text next to it.
ShayGuy: Okay, that's funny, but I'm starting to consider making an "ActuallyHalfDecentPun" page for potholing purposes.
{{Haven}}: You know that's why we originally made the IncrediblyLamePun page, right?
{{Syckls}}: It's really discouraging to see so many good jokes/bad puns undermined by that pothole. It's not quite DontExplainTheJoke level, but really, [[SeriousBusiness humor is an art of subtlety. Don't people understand that by telling us that they're making a joke, they indeed hobble it, eviscerating the very purpose that led to its creation? How many innocent laughs have been cut down before they could be born and bring joy into this world? Truly that pothole is a pox upon all those who stand for humor in this fair domain.]]
ShayGuy: Of course I know why. I ''made'' the damn thing. (Mind you, it's still an improvement over when people were using IncrediblyLazyPun for the same reason.)
{{Haven}}: Sorry! I just keep seeing the argument "IncrediblyLamePun does not mean that" pop up on this page. Now that I understand what you're saying, ActuallyHalfDecentPun would be a good redirect or something.
{{Muninn}}: Wouldn't making "ActuallyHalfDecentPun" a redirect to IncrediblyLamePun imply that all puns are lame? I approve!
DragonQuestZ: I made the caption. As for ILP, it's suppoed to be "this pun is dumb, and feel free to groan over it", which is what a proper or accidental use is.
{{Specialist290}}: Furthermore, a lot of times, the "Incredibly Lame Pun" pothole is added after the fact by a third party, not by the original editor of the statement. (I know this from firsthand experience on both sides...)
----
MikeRosoft: [[{{HeartwarmingMoment/Music}} Another one]] for:
-->If you don't get a warm and fuzzy feeling inside from it, then you should stop lurking on SugarWiki and switch to DarthWiki.

ShayGuy: [[GoneHorriblyRight This very clever bit]] on the Large Hadron Collider:
-->1. According to all known science, it will not destroy the world.
-->2. If it goes as planned, all known science will be changed.
ROBRAM89: The internet (particularly this wiki) seems to have a pretty lax policy of stealing from them (come to think of it, so do radio stations and Graham Norton apparently) but that is taken nearly verbatim from a Cracked article.
ShayGuy: Oh. >_<
ROBRAM89: It is, however, hilarious.
ShayGuy: Well, half a point to S Peter Davis for writing [[http://www.cracked.com/article_16583_5-scientific-experiments-most-likely-to-end-world.html that article]] and half a point to the UnknownTroper who paraphrased it. On a related note, who keeps removing MOW-ed comments from articles?
LooneyToons: Someone who's never gotten a MOW point, I suspect.
ROBRAM89: The Hamburgler.
{{Schrau}}: MoW for Robram please.
----
{{batfan}}: To whoever added this line to the [[{{Characters/DeathNote}} Death Note Character Sheet]] about Soichiro Yagami:
* TheObiWan (to Matsuda's IdiotHero, from a certain point of view).
{{Jordan}}: [[FridgeBrilliance Oh]]. I've read that page several times and that never hit me until now. Pretty clever.
----
{{Seanette}}: {{Jordan}}, for this lovely snark in AskTheTropers, referring to an editor with an attitude: \\
Jordan: He's a {{GIFT}} to this wiki.
----
{{Be}}: I have no idea who included Frankie Boyle's joke in the CrowningMomentOfAwesome section of the MockTheWeek page (saying that, it may even have been me), but a MOW point to whoever took the time to include pot holes for each of the characters listed. And a second one for pot holing Phil Neville (Phil Neville?!) to TokenEvilTeammate. Good show, sir or madam.
RealSlimShadowen: Wasn't me, sadly, but can I claim half a point for doing it first on the MindScrew page (now in the MindScrew quotes page), even if I omitted Phil Neville? :p
{{Be}}: I'm afraid not. I'd LIKE to dish out the points like they were unnecessarily hot pancakes and I were working at some kind of breakfast-type soup kitchen (...you heard) but Phil Neville makes it what it is.
----
Aminatep: A couple to the Trope Namer for AbusingTheKardashevScaleForFunAndProfit.
* That would be me, the disabused {{Ctrlbuild}}.
----
@/{{Yarrunmace}}: One to SchizoTechnician for correcting an error I made while creating the PlayingWithWiki PlayingWith/SesquipedalianSmith page ''2 minutes'' after I finished it.
SchizoTechnician: Thank you, you're too kind. Anything to avoid doing the paper I should be writing!
----
Mike Rosoft: Here's one to whoever came with:
--->This isn?t just {{IKEA Erotica}}, it?s IKEA Erotica that didn?t follow the assembly instructions.
tennessean: Uh...which article was this line from?
{{thatother1dude}}: IKEAErotica.
----
Beemoh: One to the "random item" button, which managed to segue me from WilliamShatner to PlanescapeTorment. And the pictures therein.
HydroGlobus: That '''must''' have been [[TheAdvertisementServer TAS]]' doing... somehow. Though it really doesn't fit in AdOfWin...
{{T-Jack}}: What, the TV Tropes website is getting MOW points now? Has it become self-aware or something?
TVTropesWiki: I must thank TheAdvertisementServer for the upgrade.
AMereServantOfGod: And with that, [[OhCrap the curtain closes,]] [[EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt everyone starts screaming,]] and [[NeonGenesisEvangelion Beethoven's Ninth]] begins to play.

InsanityPrelude: Everyone responsible for Playing With PlayingWith/EatsBabies. I lol'd.
{{thatother1dude}}: Second, plus whoever made PlayingWithWiki from that thread I started forever ago then gave literally zero contribution to.
HydroGlobus: And one to you too. Feel yourself proud, this is the first [=MOW=] I handed out.
{{Luc}}: I'll accept the MoW point for creating the PlayingWithWiki. Thanks to ThatOther1Dude for giving me the idea, and to MetaFour for creating the direct inspiration, the HaikuWiki.
----
{{Cidolfas}}: A belated MOW to whichever (probably more than one) troper came up with the title for TheThingThatGoesDoink, along with this paragraph:
Not to be confused with [[{{Discworld}} the thing that goes parp]], [[Series/DoctorWho the thing that goes ding when there's stuff]], [[CalvinAndHobbes the scientific progress that goes boink]], [[MontyPython the machine that goes ping]], [[LawAndOrder the thing that goes bong bong]], [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the man who goes BONK]], [[MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail The Knights Who Say Ni!]] or [[FinalFantasy Tonberries.]]
I have no idea why the title is so funny to me, but it is, oh so much.
LooneyToons: The page creator and namer was BluetoothThePirate, whom I haven't seen around the wiki in a long time.
ComputerSherpa: Ahaha, it's still getting longer. Seconded!
----
{{SAMAS}}: A MOW to whoever put this in PostCyberPunk:
CyberPunk is not quite dead. It's just [[MontyPythonsFlyingCircus pining for]] [[{{Illuminatus}} the fnords]].
----
{{Malchus}}: A MOW to 71.228.27.142 for making a page for ''MyDadTheRockStar''. I've been waiting to see it up. Still in need of some WikiMagic, but i love it all the same.
----
{{Master TMO}}: I should have done this long ago, but a [=MoW=] to the person who took the formatting of the BiggerIsBetter page and made it into a SelfDemonstratingArticle.
----
{{Rothul}}: This exchange from AnticlimaxBoss. Yeah, it's an IncrediblyLamePun, but it made me smile.
* General Kyong in ''{{Crysis}}'' carries a [[GatlingGood minigun]] and wears a [[PoweredArmor superpowered, regenerating nanosuit]]... and can be killed [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMjaLSL1-PM simply by throwing a barrel at him]].
** Perhaps his first name was Dong-Hee...
----
ROBRAM89: The use of Hogarth's ''Gin Lane'' as the picture for WretchedHive gets a point. So perfect.
{{Madrugada}}: Thank you!
----
CrypticMirror: Would the people responsible for the picture and captioning on VanHelsingHateCrimes please step forward for your hug coupons and [=MoW=]. Thank you.
----
DoomFilledDoom: A belated MOW to whoever alphabetized the entire anime examples lists for FoeYay and HoYay. It's much easier to find a series on those pages now.
WillyFourEyes: ChaoticDreams, crack a brew, because you'd just earned your very first (maybe) Win point! [hugs]

Mad propz to {{Stealthyboy}} for creating a page for SweetBroAndHellaJeff, the mad bastard. :D

SilentHunter: Very good work.
** {{TheGrimSleepre}}: I can no longer claim full credit for creation of the page, as the story has been [[WikiMagic improved by quite a few Tropes since]] including the index you metion.

{{Earnest}}: This tidbit from ''NowAndThenHereAndThere'':
* ItGotWorse - Every five minutes or so.
** Technically this ''ItGotWorse: The Series.''
----
RitiTroll: May have already gotten it, might be several people, but I award one made of win to the person(s) who write [[ThatGuyWithTheGlasses (OF COURSE!)]] whenever taking over the world is mentioned. Or at least attempting it or die trying.
UnknownTroper: Belated beyond belief, but I hope I'm not the only one who is finding that incredibly obnoxious. :/

{{thatother1dude}}: The opening quote for NerfArm.

FreezairForALimitedTime: One ''serious'' lawl for whoever is responsible for the HurricaneOfPuns hottip on ZombieGait. ''Especially'' Theoretical Physicist Zombie.
----
NateTheGreat: To {{Wretchkin}} for finding the current page image for NonindicativeName. Why ''is'' it called a fountain pen gun if it's neither?
{{Grev}}: Well, it is a gun; it just doesn't shoot bullets. And it's kept in his shirt pocket like a fountain pen (and it ''looks'' like a fountain pen), so...
----
{{Dmysta3000}}: This image quote for the current FreudWasRight page image definitely gets my vote. That was the funniest thing I've read all week.
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: The LaconicWiki entry for AmericanKirbyIsHardcore. This also gets my nomination for best use of the LaconicWiki ever:
* Boxart:
** Japan: ^(^_^)^
** USA: v(\_/)^
Deuxhero:I did the original idea, others improved the smilelys used.
----
{{Solarn}}: Whoever created the "We Have No Idea What Side this Guy Is On" folder for [[spoiler:Kurt Godel]] on the [[Characters/MahouSenseiNegima Negima character page]].
JapaneseTeeth: Thank you. I figured he was important enough to merit an entry on the page, but he didn't fit in any of the categories, so....
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: Whoever put this exchange in the KanyeWest article. I lol'ed for a good minute.
* Written In Infirmity: His first hit "Through the Wire" was written while in the hospital after a car accident and recorded while his jaw was still wired shut.
** You'd think this would be everyone's first clue that you can't shut him up.

Gemmifer: The picture for {{Wangst}} is awesomely wangsty. The snot-crying! The nobody-understands!

{{Luthen}}: One to {{Earnest}}, I'm definitely saving up to move to [[RefugeInAudacity Auda City]].
{{Thatother1dude}}: To [[strike:[[RougeAnglesOfSatin spear]]]] spare anyone else the need to search, I believe he's talking about something in the article SlidingScaleOfComedyAndHorror.
{{Earnest}}: Thanks! You're both welcome to visit my summer home in Auda City, it has all the creature comforts, including an [[ExplodingBarrels Exploding Barrel]] barbecue pit. ~_^
{{Luthen}}: Sorry, I thought I put that in. Spare me the spear please!
----
{{Kizor}}: The person behind the categories in the ImprobablePilotingSkills article. It's deeper than more thorough than one'd think the subject could be, and well-written to boot!
----
{{pelagica}}: MoW to anyone who put up that picture & caption on ZergRush. "ROFLMAO" was an automated response that my brain promptly sent to my mouth.
{{Rhainor}}: So very, very seconded.

{{Tofu}}: One MoW for {{Mijihal}} and GlennMagusHarvey for the whole conversation [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=vw21iywy4ely45b70bfo6i4p&page=0# here]].
{{thatother1dude}}: TakeItToTheForums ([[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=000000000000000000000dk8&page=1# Made of Win page]]).

A MadeOfWin to everyone who contributed to SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou, especially the ''Lord of the Rings'' and ''Bad Boys'' examples.
{{Malchus}}: SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou has already been colectively [=MOW'd=] before. However, since that one was made before I added the ''Bad Boys'' examples, then I gladly accept and thank thee for the [=MOW=].
----
MrDeath: A MadeOfWin to the troper whose name is lost to time that added the last line of this exchange in ''SwordOfTruth'':
* EnsembleDarkhorse - Gratch is awesome, which is sad because he's absent from the later books. Or maybe fortunate that he doesn't get caught up in the AuthorTract.
** Could you ''imagine'' what an AuthorFilibuster by Gratch would read like?
*** ''Gratch luuug Raaachaarg, Gratch haaate sooocialism.''

Arutema: Props to the team that made "GiantEnemyCrab, AttackItsWeakPoint ForMassiveDamage" a [[AllBlueEntry All Blue]] {{Meme}}.

DeuxHero: I created GiantEnemyCrab's YKTTW and I think I launched it. I didn't intended for the all blue meme though.

TheToonGeekette: One to whoever added this extremely in-character entry for Chester A. Bum's section in the FetishFuel page for ThatGuyWithTheGlasses:
** HELLO?! ARE PEOPLE LUSTING AFTER ME ON THE INTERMANET? I thought ''I'' was lusting after someone for a while, but she turned out to be a peice of toast. A ''male'' piece of toast. ...[[CatchPhrase CHAAANGE?!]]

* FeedMe: Miguel, ''especially'' on the rooftop. And it is awesome.
** This troper disagr--

----
JapaneseTeeth: Another very meta MadeOfWin for everybody who made a dick joke in the 3rd entry below this one. I'm sure you all thought long and hard about coming up with something.
RealSlimShadowen: Fine, I'll take it, but if this becomes a pattern I'm sure someone will complain it's indecent.
{{Rothul}}: [[IronicEchoCut This is indecent!]]
ShadowOfTheSun: Just as a means of discouraging this...one negative made of win to everyone who continues this trend on.
And two negative wins for me for startin' the whole damn thing.
{{Haven}}: You know...if someone were feeling ''really'' contrary, they would make the next one ''two'' {{Made of Win}}s. I agree with you, [[CheshireCatGrin I'm just sayin']].
Sceboal: Since when can you give negative made of wins? I mean, it's not like I can say that every time you get a made of win, I get to sleep with your girlfriend, right?
ShadowOfTheSun: I can since I decided I wanted too. As for the girlfriend, well, I hope you like dry humping in mid-air.

{{Syckls}}: It's okay. However, I think I'd like to repeat the sentiment stated earlier on this page that you don't need to pothole every joke you make with needless self-deprecation.

OuttaTheBLAM: Whoever wrote this on the [[Narm/CodeGeass Narm/Code Geass]] page.
[[http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/Code-Geass/item235781/ This.]] What the hell Lelouch?
If I may... FABULOUS!
(Imagine, if you will, in Dan Green 's voice): After a long day of taking over the world, nothing refreshes me more than pouring cool, Aquafina-brand water all over me. Yes, look at that water dribble down all over my CLAMP-designed bishonen body! Have you had enough, fangirls, or do you want MORE?! Aquafina is the only brand of water I trust not to be poisoned by jealous nobles who like to drop carriages on imperial consorts! Aquafina: Because pouring Gatorade on your body is too much of a mess (and way too titillating for the fangirls)!

ShadowoftheSun: One very meta Made of Win for all the folks who made a boob pun two entries below this one. One and a half to Real Slim Shadowen for his phallusy.
JKRoo: My first Win point! And don't worry, Shadowen, [[IfYouKnowWhatIMean I hear it happens to a lot of guys]].
RealSlimShadowen: Hey, I [[BiggusDickus got half again as much as the rest of you]]; I'm just peachy.
{{Rothul}}: Aren't you getting kind of cocky there?
{{jtmmachine}}: Yeah, that was kind of a dick move back there...
{{Haven}}: Right, shouldn't let it go to your head. %%I almost-posted this so many times...well, okay, twice. But if it's going to happen I will not stand in its way.
{{CAD}}: Wow, I can't think of a good pun to contribute to this. This is pretty stiff competition.
JKRoo: It's okay, {{CAD}}. And as hard as it may be for me, I retract the insult. After all, we're equal members of this wiki!
Sceboal: This is some nice wit you guys have.
ShadowOfTheSun: ...I'm contemplating revoking your win points, but I fear that will be too...emasculating? I don't want to make you guys feel impotent.
JKRoo: I'm very sorry about the [[AWorldwidePunomenon load of puns]]. Just, please, don't give us the shaft! [[YugiohTheAbridgedSeries I could go on, but I won't.]]
{{pagad}}: [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Boobies.]]
{{Be}}: Ahaha, I get it because penises are funny and puns are funny. [[DontExplainTheJoke Funny.]]
Spidey3000: Ah, no need to...um...stick your...screw it. I can't think of another penis-related pun to add that haven't been done; the humor's [[TheLoinsSleepTonight all dryed up]]. Oh well, at least I got a rise out of it.
----
Doug S. Machina: This from WickedCultured:
...he is actually ''defeated'' by his lack of knowledge of pop culture. Not "as a consequence of"; By. [[spoiler:After failing to name the singer who had a hit with "I Should Be So Lucky", his head explodes. Or, if you prefer, goes [[IncrediblyLamePun pop]].]]
----
{{alliterator}}: Huge tracts of win to whoever made KeepAbreastOfThisIndex.
{{Cat22}}: Credit should go to Draqon Quest Z. I was quite titillated when he suggested it.
{{jtmmachine}}: That index just keeps racking up tropes!
Sceboal: I must've tittered at it so much.
{{SAMAS}}: Geez, what a bunch of boobs...
Beemoh: At least you got it off your chest.
{{T-Jack}}: Oh, come on, guys, tits just an index.
{{Rothul}}: Let's not be so quick to jugs.
{{Shale}}: Why did it take so long to make? There was always ample support for such an index, and a firm list of tropes to add.
JKRoo: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJugzzRKRPs This ought to make any other attempts at bad jokes a bust.]] An incredibly large one at that.
MrDeath: Just had to nipple that in the bud, huh?
{{Haven}}: Mammary joke!
{{Janitor}}: Okay. Have we milked this enough, yet?
RealSlimShadowen: Nope! [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Penis]].
{{Be}}: Hahaha, I get it! [[DontExplainTheJoke Breasts are funny!]]
----
{{Haven}}: To the UT at 190.80.241.98 for this amazing IncrediblyLamePun in {{Understatement}}:
* ''CodeGeass'' has Nunnally become a master of understatement with "In the past, unfortunate happenings took place inside [[spoiler:the Special Administrative Region of Japan]]." "Unfortunate happenings" meaning ''[[spoiler:genocide]]''.
** We could call it a [[spoiler:[[IncrediblyLamePun Euphemism]]]].
ShayGuy: ...That's not lame. {{Pothole}}s don't need to be used to say "Look! Look! See? See what I did? I made a funny!"
MrDeath: I don't get it.
{{Haven}}: It's a CodeGeass joke; the character who initiated said "unfortunate happenings" is named [[spoiler:Euphemia]].
----
ROBRAM89: One for the absolutely hilarious PotHole to [[spoiler: GilliganCut]] on the page for, of all things, Grover Cleveland. You can't read it without picturing it.
----
Enlong: One to whoever took note the large number of alternate titles for the page, and added ThisIsForRedirectsBitch as the newest one. LampshadeHanging in the form of an alternate titles. I love it!
{{Citizen}}: Haha, that was me.
ThinksTooMuch admits that's amusing, but thinks we seriously need to ''remove'' some of those endless redirects, not ''add'' some.
{{Haven}}: Why?
----
Page history's lost the one responsible ("all edits," my ass), but somebody's got to give a MOW to the ones responsible for the jokey summation of ''{{Noein}}'' in FutureMeScaresMe, {{Incredibly Lame Pun}}s and all:
* So, [[spoiler:three Yuus walk into a bar]]
** [[spoiler: But the bartender didn't quantum to be there]]
*** [[spoiler: And the bartender asks them if they want beer, but they say Noein]]
**** [[spoiler:* rimshot* ]]
----
{{Haven}}: One for whoever came up with this incredibly lame, yet still rather sophisticated, pun in the comic book ShoutOut page (context included for clarity):
* There's a lovely and rather subtle one in issue 16 of Grant Morrison's "Animal Man", where "quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" ("Who Watches The Watchmen?", in Latin) is graffiti-ed on a toilet wall.
** That couldn't be moore juvenal.
----
{{Earnest}}: I'd like to thank WillyFourEyes for catching a mistake I made in InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn. I accidentally put ''TheLongestJourney'' as a {{Film}} because I confused it with ''[[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107131/ Homeward Bound]]''. I would also like to give him a MOW point for assuming I was actually being clever by putting this in the Edit Reason space:
-->''Wait, but TheLongestJourney is...[[StoryToGameplayRatio Oh]], I see what you did there...''
WillyFourEyes: Hee hee...thanks. I kinda feel bad about the edit reason, though, as I haven't played enough of ''The Longest Journey'' to figure out how long its cutscenes are.
@/{{Koveras}}: Actually, ''TLJ'' is not cutscene-heavy at all (unlike ''Dreamfall'') but I assumed you meant that the the epic plot of the game completely overshadows a high-quality but otherwise pretty standard point-and-click gameplay...
----
ZanderSchubert: Whoever linked "Necromancer Solves Case" on the EssentialThirdActTwists page to PushingDaisies.
----
EddieCurrent: Please join me in presenting Infinix with this MadeOfWin, for all the Awesome he's brought to the SuperSentai pages lately. Including making the rest of us look good. Bravo, good sir!
----
NateTheGreat: To whoever added the subtle ''ThePrincessBride'' joke to the Bible It Just Bugs Me. "This was after grounding had been invented, but before time-outs." At least I assume this was a subtle ''ThePrincessBride'' joke.
----
{{Medinoc}}: To {{Citizen}}, for the picture name in the HomosexualReproduction page.
ShayGuy: He does have a knack for those, doesn't he?
----
ThePaintedMaypole: One MadeOfWin to whoever made this contribution to BeardOfSorrow:
''MoulinRouge'' opens with a grieving bearded Christian. [[{{Jesus}} No, not that one]].
----
[=BritBllt=]: I feel kind of guilty, getting a MadeOfWin when AnonymousMcCartneyfan has spent the past month on cleaning up and fixing all the errors on the main {{Unwinnable}} page. He's pretty much single-handedly adopted the page and remade it with win, so he has my vote. :)
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: Thanks!
----
Doug S. Machina: I liked the meta twist in ItWasHisSled.
Also, from the SuzumiyaHaruhi page:
PerverseSexualLust ? Search your feelings, you know it to be true.
----
{{sgrunt}}: to {{TsundeRay}} for the [[TheStinger stinger]] on {{NetHack}}, which brought a grin to this [=NetHacker's=] face...
----
JapaneseTeeth: A MoW for whoever did the (current) caption at BodyguardCrush. I've seen at least 3 different captions there, so this one cracked me up. For posterity's sake, it currently reads [[spoiler: Trust me, next time you come to this page, the pun will have changed.]]
{{Shale}}: And it has.
----
CrypticMirror: A MoW for whoever came up with the stinger at the very end of the [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel/DoctorWho Doctor Who High Octane Nightmare Fuel]] page...
{{Tangent 128}}: Seconded.
tennessean: I potholed it so that other people can easily access the page from here.
----
SilentHunter: Whoever had the idea for TheUniversalGenreSavvyGuide.
DragonQuestZ: Me, although it was inspired by all the varied lists.
----
{{Excel-2009}}. I thought the entry for StupidJetpackHitler in ''YouHaveToBurnTheRope'' was pretty funny, if only tangentially related.
{{DracMonster}}: Thank you. We will get EVERY DAMN TROPE on that page eventually, I swear it!
----
nomuru2d: I nominate whoever put up the picture for The Emperor on the [[Characters/{{Ptitlefjcz80qe}} Dissidia Characters page]]. I laughed long and hard.
JKRoo: Seconded. Oh, so very very seconded.
JapaneseTeeth: Thirded. I burst out laughing when I saw that.
----
Enlong: Whoever came up with the banner put at the top of SubjectiveTropes. Captures the idea of subjective pretty danged well.
SilentHunter: Seconded.
{{Rothul}}: And the AltText is now a lot better too!
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: Thirded. I like the "surrender" body language.
----
merton: everyone on TheBible 's page, for their steadfast insistance in putting spoiler tags around the fact that [[spoiler:Jesus dies]].
{{Citizen}}: A true case of YouShouldKnowThisAlready (ya rly), but I'm not going to play that game.
----
SilentHunter: Razgriz 2K9, for his pictures in MnogoNukes.
----
{{Lale}}: This answer to [[JustBugsMe/{{Up}} why Carl didn't get busted by the FAA for flying a house down the street]] in ''{{Up}}'': "Hello, is this the FAA? Yeah, there's this guy flying in a house. Yes, he's attached his house to a million balloons and he's just flying it down the... hello? Hello?" CrowningMomentOfFunny! I was practically rotfl! They should have included that in the actual movie!
----
{{Haven}}: Fifth_Rider for the Sartre quote at the top of the NeonGenesisEvangelion page. That's just perfect.
----
{{Enlong}}: So I was reading through YouMakeMeSic, and when I reached the bottom, I saw the PoorCommunicationKills index nav-bar. One of the links on that nav-bar was simply [[CodeGeass Lelouch]]. One MOW to whoever set that up.
StFan: Nobody set it up. This is purely a problem with the automated indexing. Every link following the index list on the page will be used as the next index entry if it's just after the bullet point. Only way to avoid this is to eliminate the links at the beginning of the examples entries in the PoorCommunicationKills page.
{{Pykrete}}: So basically the MOW goes to some [[GoodBadBugs quite deserving]] ghost data?
TheAdvertisementServer: WOULDN'T BE THE FIRST TIME, MEAT-SACK.
----
{{Freezer}}: MoW - with a side of "I see what you did there" to {{Mason}} for this AuthorsSavingThrow entry"
* Jesus... From TheBible... WordOfGod says he was trying to fix a CharacterDerailment, but it resulted in just as much backlash as before. [[spoiler: Sorry]]
----
{{Deuxhero}}:Whoever (unknown, IP adress is 67.66.201.215) wrote the GettingCrapPastTheRadar Bullet point before GroinAttack on ''{{House}}''.
----
{{Cidolfas}}: For Rothul, for coming up with the YKTTW for "One Letter Title", all in poetry. It's not even a trope yet, but it's brilliant!
{{Rothul}}: Thank you! It has since been launched as OneLetterTitle. Anyone better with meter than I, feel free to revise!
{{alliterator}}: Oh man, that is so awesome. It even inspired me to write the entry for ''{{Z}}''.
----
{{thatother1dude}}: OK, it might not be ''exactly'' a joke, but I can't stop laughing at this entry of MillsAndBoonProse:
* {{Nasuverse}} sex scenes are commonly a mild form of this (more so in ''{{Tsukihime}}'' than the later ''FateStayNight''). Oddly, they're also written in first-person perspective...
If I ever read any Nasuverse visual novels I hope it's not as hilarious sounding as the image that gives me in my head.
{{bluepenguin}}: I don't know how hilarious your mental image is, but Nasu's sex scenes are definitely more funny than sexy (in most people's opinion).
----
ParadoxicTitle: To {{alcatrazz}}, for his hilarious comment under the Demonic Spiders - Real Life section. Someone made a comment about how humans qualified (mainly because they killed so many animals). His response:
"Since when do we let woodland animals edit pages?"
[[{{Understatement}} I lol'd]].
----
{{Tal9922}}: To the genius that came up with the corresponding image/caption for the MamaBear and PapaWolf pages, your MoW is long overdue (even assuming the change is recent).
Seriously, try switching between the two pages consecutively.
{{Medinoc}}: Wow. Seconding that, too. However, wasn't the Cable picture intentional?
{{Madrugada}} Pretty much. {{ccoa}} is the one responsible for the pair of them.
----
{{SonicGTR}} A MOW to whoever drew and/or uploaded the picture for HitboxDissonance. This fan of both {{Touhou}} and SuzumiyaHaruhi almost needed a new keyboard when he first saw it.
{{Medinoc}}: Seconded. Also, what is this pic from?
{{Citizen}}: Looks like a Touhou sketch someone pulled off of Deviantart.
----
{{sgrunt}}: to LeighSabio for the Laconic entries for {{Laconic/Fanboy}} and Laconic/FanGirl; admittedly not the most laconic but still apt.
----
vicnog: I don't know whether this comment in the LamarckWasRight page or the response to it is funnier:
* [[{{Popeye}} You can't inherit a pipe!]]
** Why not? This troper inherited his dad's Rolex.
A MOW to both tropers. Cheers!
----
{{Grimace}}: A shiny MOW to {{schism}}, for this entry in ''TheHappening'', purely by virtue of the enthusiasm displayed in the entry just made me crack right up.
* So, the environment is both murderous and incapable of reason? Sounds like a job for '''[[{{KillItWithFire}} FIRE]]'''.
{{Haven}}: So very seconded.
----
Curtmack: One bright sunshiney Made Of Win to whoever put "IHaveManyNames" under Aelita [[strike:Lyoko]] [[strike:Hopper]] [[strike:Schaeffer]] Stones (I think) on [[Characters/CodeLyoko the character sheet]] for ''CodeLyoko''.
StFan: That would be me. ^_^ Didn't do it for the lolz, though, just thought it was fitting.
----
{{Enlong}}: To {{Turrican}} for the inspired pun that is the Laconic entry for ''SonicTheHedgehog2006''
{{Sonic}} [[ObviousBeta rushed]].
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: To {{LEXicon}}, for the awesome [[SelfDemonstratingArticle self-demonstrating]] page for {{Michael McConnohie}}. Doesn't break [[{{Disgaea}} character]] once.
{{thatother1dude}}: I believe I actually nominated that a couple months ago (no one responded though).
----
Tropers/{{Dark}}: One to {{Tunod}} for the rather clever StealthPun for the [=Chekov's Gun=] entry on the ''Film/StarTrek'' movie page.
----
{{thatother1dude}}: One to whoever is responsible for the RunningGag on the ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' page about [[BoldInflation AQUAMAN]].
----
{{Be}}: Indicating that you can find diamonds in dog turds, this entry in DarthWiki/NonExistentFictionRecommendations:
* '''AtlasShrugged: The Musical'''. The showstopper halfway through the third act must be seen to be believed.
I'd pay to see it, that's all I know. (Not saying that NEFR is a dog turd, saying that ''AtlasShrugged'' is a dog turd. K? K)
----
{{Grev}}: Whoever had the bad fishing experience 'round these parts gets one for FishingForSole:
Several false alarms and several boots later, you start to wonder. Why are there so many boots? Fish don't wear boots, hell, they don't even have feet. Yet there seems to be more boots in the water than there are fish. And it's not just boots, either. Spare tires, tin cans, other useless junk... '''''why does it seem like you're fishing in Lake Erie?'''''
{{Specialist290}}: I would like to second that nomination on the basis of it being one of the [[IncrediblyLamePun lamest]] (and thus most awesome) puns ever.
----
{{sgrunt}}: to {{rjung}} for the picture on {{Paranoia}}. Remember, citizens, happiness is mandatory!
----
K: Whoever added this to the ''{{Animorphs}}'' page gets one, because it makes me laugh every time I see it.
StarCrossedLovers: She's a beautiful, smart, independant, funny and spirited suburban teenage hottie. He is a fucking bird.
{{Grimace}}: I can't help but read that as an advert for a damn Rob Schneider movie. (still awesome though).
----
{{Ronnie}}: One to whoever put this gem on WarpThatAesop:
* ''Monsters Inc.'': The monsters in your closet just work for a federal utility company, so in essence, they are bureaucrats. All the more reason to be afraid of them.
----
{{thatother1dude}}: This section of the TVTropesDrinkingGame (specifically the end):
* Take two sips if ThisTroper relates how shocked, SHOCKED, they are that an example from their favorite series hasn't already been added.
** Take three sips if ThisTroper was right to expect said example to be mentioned sooner.
** Finish the bottle if said example ''has'' been mentioned already.
** Two bottles if ''you'' were the one to add the example and forgot about it.
** Three if ''has'' been mentioned before and the reason it's not there anymore was because ''it wasn't a real example''.
** Four if you haven't yet died of alcohol poisoning.
*** For the personal safety of those who actually want to ''try'' this drinking game, change "bottle" in the above four steps to "glass". And for that matter, omit the last one entirely.
----
{{Antheia}}: A [=MoW=] point to rjung for the StrangeSyntaxSpeaker article. I didn't even realize what was odd about the text until I was halfway through or so, I just felt there was... something. That's a sign of serious writing skills.
{{Pykrete}}: Holy hell. It took me a while to notice what was going on there when I was ''looking for it''. Very subtle, but elegant.
ShayGuy: It's right in the first paragraph.
AMereServantOfGod: [[CaptainObvious O RLY?]]
RadicalTaoist: Yeah, that's quite impressive. It was hard coming up with a suitable Laconic entry.
{{Freiberg}}: That takes some skill. And this comes from a guy who writes long and complicated acrostics into his history notes.
----
{{Earnest}}: One to {{vifetoile}} for the laconic description of Laconic/PoweredByAForsakenChild. It made me lol ''and'' want to buy a Soylent Prius.
{{Vifetoile}}: Thank you! {{Sgrunt}} made a change to it, so s/he deserves some recognition, too. :-)
{{sgrunt}}: All in the interest of making a [[LaconicWiki Laconic]] article even shorter while preserving the wit... but if it's worthy of recognition, so be it. :-)
{{Vifetoile}}: Well, no Troper is an island, sufficient unto herself. This wiki needs everyone to make it great.
----
{{DOTMW}}: I don't know if it's been said already but everyone who contributed their own personal stories to the CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Troper Tales page has my sincere gratitude. I am constantly inspired by the warmth and humanity displayed there that offers hope that SweetExists. So a MAJOR MadeOfWin to everyone who shared their stories with us.
----
Curtmack: One to whoever came up with the designation "Always Neutral Hungry" to refer to the [[{{Warhammer 40000}} Tyranids]].
DeuxHero:Fairly sure "Neutral Hungry" is an existing fanon D&D term for various animals who, being int<3 and are not undead (I don't know why undead are evil when they are mindless either) are forced to TrueNeutral alignment.
----
MorkaisChosen: A truly inspired reply to the comment about General Studies exams at the bottom of AuthorVocabularyCalendar. I was amused but not planning to add this here... until I saw the pothole for "She got an A."
{{Syckls}}: I would just like to note that the aforementioned entry was deleted from the AuthorVocabularyCalendar page eight hours after it was given a mention here. I'm not taking sides on the issue, but I felt it had to be said.
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: For the record (reading from the page history), the pothole for "She got an A" was ThePointsMeanNothing. (No, it wasn't me.)
----
Ronka87: It's is pretty old by now, but I had to mention this exchange from the discussion page of ''InstrumentOfGod:''
-->'''KrazehPenguin:''' How in the world did you find out about this book?
-->'''EricDVH:''' We didn't find out about it, ''it found out about '''us'''.''
----
MrDeath: One to {{Wretchkin}} for the opening quotes to the {{Batman}} page. Cracked me up.
{{Wretchkin}}: I had to do it. 'Cause he's ''Batman.''
----
{{Haven}}: One for whoever wrote the line "below is a condensed catalog of horrors that will make you doubt in the {{Auto Revive}} of {{Crystal Dragon Jesus}}" in BeingGoodSucks. (Actually, that whole page is rather well-written, but that one made me lol). And, I know it's a little redundant to give FastEddie Made of Win points, but one to him for this snappy reply in {{Firefly}}'s discussion page:
->'''Meocross''': wow.... this series is only 12 freaking episodes yet i see it on almost every trope i stumble on. what is in this show? o_O
->'''FastEddie''': Everything good.
{{Earnest}}: Thank you! ^_^ Every so often I manage a nice turn of phrase like that.
----
{{Sikon}}: Whoever added this to WMG/{{Portal}}:
* The Companion Cube is a pastiche of every flat, plot-irrelevant love interest character ever. It's identical to every other NPC except for a small tag that marks it as a love interest; the only relationship you have with it is informed; the structure of a level is artificially manipulated to make it unwinnable without the love interest for no given plot reason; and the only purpose it serves in the story is to turn GLaDOS forcing you to "kill" it into a Rape The Dog moment for the villain.
{{Sparkysharps}}:My God...That is ''brilliant''.
----
T-Jack: One to whoever added the first line in ThreePlusTwo. Major spoiler indeed.
----
MetaFour: The matching pictures and captions on WarmupBoss and WakeUpCallBoss.
DrNamgge: I only just noticed that. Shame the WarmupBoss image is from the Beta version.
FusionDragon: Actually, going by the ring counter, I think it's a ROM hack.
----
{{Kalle}}: Oh my god, whoever potholed the ''entire'' strawberry milk speech on the ''{{Gintama}}'' page deserves serious points from me. If only because it made me burst out laughing just as hard as when I first saw it in the anime.
----
L: I simply approve of the MSPaint article. It's a solid piece of writing.
L: While I'm at it, I give similar approval to the {{Alchemy}} article.
----
GGCrono: A huge MOW to whoever added the comment on the SealedEvilInACan entry for {{Ghostbusters}}. :D
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW to the author of the last line in the GratuitousGerman lead-in (about the Nazis). Got me laughing really hard. :D
tennessean: I personally liked the "psycho[[FreudWasRight anal]]ysis" bit in the line immediately above that one! :D
----
{{Balesirion}}: To the person who made the TabletopGames section on GratuitousJapanese be "[[AC:[[TableTopGames Teiberu Toppu Ge-mu]]]] [[strike:[[AC:[[TengenToppaGurrenLagann Lagann]]]]]]"
{{Haven}}: I picked up an [=MoW=] for that already, but thanks!
----
InsanityPrelude: The chain of wicks starting from Laconic/MadeOfWin. Maybe I'm just in a weird mood today but I lol'd.
Doug S Machina: That's me. Thank you.
----
MaverickHunter40245:
* Narm: Gears of War 2: Dom killing Maria because she's no longer hot.
----
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: A point to [=BritBllt=] for fixing the main {{Unwinnable}} page by making new folders so the "Other Videogamea" folder would close again. Also, for naming it the "Other Videogames" folder.
----
WWRU: Found this in BatmanArkhamAsylum. Big thanks to every troper who joined in (with the exception of myself, obviously. [[EvenEvilHasStandards That's just mean.]])
* MonsterClown: You have one guess. [[ThisIsSparta ONE. GUESS.]]
** [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Two-Face?]]
** I think he meant the Mad Hatter.
** It's obviously Harley Quinn.
** Jesus, he said monster, man. It's Croc.
** Seriously guys, '''monster''' and '''clown'''. [[OverlyLongGag It can only be the Titan-infected henchmen with clown make-up]].
Asmodemus:Yay, I was mentioned! As part of something with a group of other people but still. I added Harley Quinn.
{{Be}}: My first point! I'd like to thank the Academy, Batman, my dull-ass job and Kanye West for not interrupting my speech, you're all fantastic.
{{Nithael}}: And I'm the one responsible for the last part ("Seriously guys..."). Thanks for my first point!
----
{{Excel-2009}}. I want to shake the hand of whoever came up with this gem on HotBlooded:
* ''[[TwentyFour 24]]'''s Jack Bauer would like to remind you that he's A FEDERAL AGENT!
** And that he wants everything done... '''NOW'''!
** ...because he is RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!!
** '''DAMMIT!!!'''
----
Deuxhero:To {{Antwan}} from taking my request for formating of the LegendsOfTheHiddenTemple page.
----
{{Kizor}}: My thanks to whoever spotted AtlantisIsBoring and to whoever wrote it. Both deeds are good demonstrations of the best of our ability.
----
Kudos to whoever chose this particular phrasing for the MagicalNegro entry listed for ''TheShawshankRedemption''. I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything:
"Red, in a way, but it's also true that Andy is Red's Magical Whitey, so to speak."
{{Rothul}}: Thank you!
----
{{alliterator}}: \\
One to MetaFour\\
For launching the [[HaikuWiki Haiku]]\\
[[HaikuWiki Wiki]]. Thank you lots.
DragonQuestZ: And for the Haiku for Haiku/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus.
MrDeath: And one MOW to WhogusTheWhatsler for Haiku/TheDarkKnightTrilogy's Haiku. It literally made me laugh out loud. It's ''exactly'' the type of Haiku the Joker himself would write.
Deuxhero:\\
I added a break[[hottip:* :to the start of your message]]\\
You'll thank me latter - {{Monk}}\\
I give up on[[hottip:* :speaking like]] this.\\
(Isn't droping Wiki to the 3rd line cheating, eh, the hottips likely are as a well)
----
{{Grev}}: I'm pretty sure one's been given out for the entirety of the RealLife page (particularly the examples), but if not, here you go.
L: "Surprisingly good graphics" would have been pretty blah by itself, so I'm glad someone appended it with "for a legacy system".
----
ThinksTooMuch: Despite never having seen {{Pokemon}} I still had to ask this for the WMG/TimeLord entry:
Ash's father is a Time Lord, his mother is Haruhi Suzumiya, and everthing takes place in instrumentality.
* I am unrepentant.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Oh dearest, I've never laughed as hard as I did over a [[Characters/{{Ptitlefjcz80qe}} Characters page]] as I did for the one for DissidiaFinalFantasy. To everyone who contributed the fanart, You're Winner!
----
Musoeun: One MoW and free hug to whoever added this one to FirstPersonSmartass:
-> '''''Spenser'' is somewhat a Poor Man's Substitute for Marlowe''' and is often brought up as the direct inspiration for fantasy novels using this character-type. (Emphasis mine.)
The literature geek inside of me just about died laughing. I dearly hope that was intentional, but it's gold even if not.
----
OuttaTheBLAM: I think I need to suggest this bizarre exchange from ADateWithRosiePalms:
* Because it's about as sexual as a potato singing "Baa Baa Black Sheep", Wooldoor masturbating is shown multiple times. It involves breaking his own finger, among other things. Go figure.
** I'd bet you a hundred bucks that someone, somewhere is [[RuleThirtyFour getting off]] [[VeggieTales to singing potatoes]] right now...
*** {{Freezer}}: That's actually Rule 36; "[[http://rule-36.urbanup.com/2412662 It's someone's fetish. No exceptions."]]
{{thatother1dude}}: We had a page for that, but now it's just a redirect to the original page.
{{Phartman}}: I don't know who blueshifted it, but I believe the potato bit was mine.
----
BobbyG: One to BrokenChaos, for [[GreatCrashContributors compiling a list]] of every Troper who edited prior to TheGreatCrash, fixing a nasty copyright issue in the process.
{{Haven}}: Wow. Seconded so freaking hard.
Thirded by OuttaTheBLAM
{{Cidolfas}}: Fourthed!
ShayGuy: How the...wait, what copyright issue?
BrokenChaos: Thanks guys. Copyright issue was a potential situation (hopefully never an ''actual'' legal issue) where contributors to the wiki prior to TheGreatCrash aren't attributed in any way, which is a required part of the CC BY-SA -- the licence all content here is contributed and used under. Similar issue with the archived history (post-GC, pre-2009-07-12), but the admins have said there will be a tool for that in the (hopefully-near) future. Made o' win for 'em when that gets coded up.

{{alliterator}}: On the ''{{Zombieland}}'' page, to whoever called ''Zombieland'' the "GurrenLagann of zombie movies." Because that is so freakin' true. Also, whoever wrote the description of the movie is awesome.
{{Moviepyr0}}: That was me. Dude, you just totally made my week. I also created the page and description (my first ever) save for a great change of the line "hallow, shallow lives made no more meaningful by always running for their lives" to "hallow, shallow lives made no more meaningful by always running for them" courtesy of JustCallMeNed, and everything that follows from there in the first paragraph are totally kickass additions by unknown tropers. Also, I'd like to give another shout out to JustCallMeNed for changing the line "Zombieland is a little more concerned with turning zombies into a pulpy mess." back to my original "Zombieland is a little more concerned with knocking their fucking teeth in." as well as an unknown troper for doing the same when someone changed it again.

@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW to whoever started the [[UsefulNotes/ConspiracyTheories Useful Notes on Conspiracy Theories]] entry. I've been waiting for a long time for this page. ^^
{{Deuxhero}}:I started a YKTTW requesting such, but don't think this is a result of it.

MetaFour: Whoever was responsible for the caption on {{Area 51}}.
SilentHunter: That was me. Thanks.
----
MrDeath: Whoever added it has been lost to the sands of time, but I must give one out for this line in LousyAlternateTitles:
* It's called ADateWithRosiePalms because it turns out '''[[GGundam This Hand Of Mine Glows With An Awesome Power]]''' isn't actually an example.
DrgonQuestZ: That was me.

{{Haven}}: I'm not sure if this has been nominated before, but Rogue7 for his pithy reply to this line in KavorkaMan:
** Legend has it that when Franklin returned from his post as the American ambassador to France, he was afflicted with every venereal disease known to medicine at the time.

{{G-Mon}}: (S)He's probably not going to see this, but one for the UnknownTroper at 83.59.144.177 for the second line of this bit in InformalEulogy:
* (snip) ..."My client doesn't even know how to drive a car".
** [[DrivesLikeCrazy Damn right he doesn't.]]
[=~8th_Pacifist~=]: That was me, before I got known. [[SmallNameBigEgo I'd like to thank the Academy]].

{{Enlong}}: A point to whoever came up with the name for LetXBeTheUnknown. Math puns rule!
{{alliterator}}: Though I created the trope, I did not launch it and give it its name. That honor belongs to {{Prfnoff}}.

Curtmack: This, on ScrewTheRulesIHavePlot:
* Let's not even get started on the Seal Of Orichalcos, which would require about 5 cards worth of text space to explain the rules if was actually made.
** That's one of the simpler cards. All of your monsters get 500 more ATK points, you get 5 extra monster spaces and the loser loses their soul.
{{Cassius335}}: Speaking as someone who ''does'' know what a Catapult Turtle is, I must point out [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/The_Seal_of_Orichalcos that it's a ''bit'' more complicated that that]]. Cute line, though.
Oh, and losing your soul, thankfully, [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Card_Appearances:The_Seal_of_Orichalcos is an anime-only effect]]. [[hottip:* :Good thing too.

{{Rissa}}: This pothole in AttractiveBentGender:
** Am I seriously the only one who has a problem with ''Thor and Odin'' making attractive women? [[BrianBlessed What the hell did women look like in Norse mythology?]]
because now I want to know what that would look like.
ROBRAM89: Despite the fact that I come here every day [[SmallNameBigEgo just to see if I've been congratulated for anything]], I'd like to point out that somebody mentioned that one already. Thanks though.
@/{{Koveras}}: Do you know this rule of the internet, {{Rissa}}? If there is a male character out there, there '''is''' a gender-bent version of him, no exceptions. So... meet [[http://s58.radikal.ru/i159/0908/61/36afdde48dce.jpg Odine and Toruko]], original concept by yours truly, drawn by a close friend of mine. ^^
wllw: "Your browser is trying to contact an Internet site that is used in connection with distribution of photos depicting sexual abuse of children. This is a criminal offense in accordance with the Italian penal code." This is what I get when I click the above link.
{{Citizen}}: Russian web meets Italian censorship. Fascinating. [[http://yfrog.com/0s36afdde48dcej Rehosted.]]
@/{{Koveras}}: Yeah, I get that message far too often when I access my Russian blog, too. Thanks for reuploading the picture, Citizen, I should have thought of it myself. ^^
{{whitetigah}}: Weird, I'm from Italy too and yet I didn't get that message. Possibly because I'm using [=OpenDNS=]?
wllw: Thanks for rehosting. Nice pic, by the way.

RobertBingham: Nomination for whoever wrote this sub-entry for {{Touhou}} on the DynamicEntry page. I just love the turn of phrase at the end:
* Worse than this is Chen, in her appearance in ''Shoot the Bullet''. Usually, the player is encouraged to spend the first seconds before the boss appears stationary, charging his camera. This is usually well and good... except that Chen then proceeds to enter screen by ''falling like a brick'' in the exact same vertical line the player spawns at, usually ending with the first-time player eating a catgirl to the face.

* "I do."
[[{{WAFF}} Awww]][[CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming wwww]].
{{Inkblot}}: Seconded.
FreezairForALimitedTime: Thirded! D'aaaaaawwwww...
{{Shoebox}}: Fourthed. That must've been quite the wedding.
Arutema: [[BerserkButton Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!]] [[MadnessMantra Stop it! Stop it!

AMereServantOfGod: [[CompletelyMissingThePoint ...so you're saying I can get a free Nintendo Wii, then?]]
** No, you're stuck with a PS3. Let the ConsoleWars begin! [[EvilLaugh Muah-ha-ha!]]
{{Rogue 7}}: Oh quit whining. I'm 20 years old and I haven't had a real date in my life. Doesn't mean I don't agree with the sentiment. Fifthed.
** Arutema: Trust me. Eight more years of unwanted celibacy and things [[DespairEventHorizon ain't gonna look so pretty!]]
cg12345: Geez, I just thought it was a nice sentiment; I didn't say I was going to force you into marriage at gunpoint, you know?
TriggerLoaded: Sixed... Err, Sixthed... Err, agree. Just because I have no prospects of marriage in my future, doesn't mean I can't be happy for those who do succeed.
{{Malchus}}: "as if it was something everyone wanted" potholed to {{Asexuality}}? [[UnfortunateImplications Because all asexuals are angry and bitter non-romantics who hate love with a passion]], [[SarcasmMode right]]? Please, a person can be asexual and still be pleased for other people who can find happiness with other people. Heck, a person can be asexual and ''still get married''.
Joysweeper: You can be asexual and fall in love, or go {{Shipping}}, even. Honestly? It doesn't matter how long we've gone without dates, blowing up because someone else succeeded where you haven't just makes you look like a JerkAss.
{{Vifetoile}}: Seventhed. Awww.
DarkSasami: It's a toss-up between [[SourGrapesTropes sour grapes]] and HypeAversion for [[{{Gayngst}} rather a lot of us]].
* {{Malchus}}: So? Every relationship I've tried has failed so far. Doesn't justify me ranting at people who succeed or soehorning asexuals (I'm related to one, so misunderstandings about them are ''my'' BerserkButton) as part of said ranting.
{{G-Mon}}: [[SugarWiki/CrowningMomentOfFunny I found this entire exchange hilarious.]]
ZanderSchubert: Firstly, thanks for the MOW points. Secondly, I'm glad/surprised/humbled/anotheradjective that something I've done has resulted in people going "[[{{WAFF}} Awwww....!]]" and "[[BerserkButton I KEEL YUO!!!!!!11~]]" at the same time. And, for the record, I'm single and dateless too. So, whatever...

Muzozavr: Since I'm a newbie to TV Tropes, and thus have no idea how to get a look at the "who edited what" database -- a MOW to whoever put that picture on the MindRape trope. If the page wasn't NightmareFuel for someone, it is definitely NightmareFuel NOW.
{{Medinoc}}: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MindRape?action=diff&minor=y&more=Y It's Fifth_Rider]]. And new entries at the top, please.
----
{{Sparkysharps}}: Their name is lost from the page history, but whoever topped off the [[RunningGag Running]] DavidBowie [[RunningGag Gag]] in OneSceneWonder with this line (in bold) deserves a MOW
* The weighted companion cube from VideoGame/{{Portal}} is one of the game's most famous icons and is prominent in the game's merchandise, as well as a popular subject in fan art. The companion cube does not speak or move or threaten to stab you and only appears in a single level of the game, but is much more well known than the protagonist Chell or the villain GLaDOS. Hell, he even got a [[CompanionCube trope]] named after him.
** '''Rumor has it that he's going to be played by DavidBowie in TheMovie.'''

AMereServantOfGod: One Made of Win to Haven, for this entry on the {{Scribblenauts}} [[{{WMG/Scribblenauts}} Wild Mass Guessing]] page:

The next time Sinestro attacks Oa, he'll be fended off by an army of Longcats.

RobinZimm: The following line in MoreDakka warmed the cockles of my engineering heart:
::A SubTrope of ImpossiblyCoolWeapon, in the sense that most weapons that can do this would be [[IncrediblyLamePun impossible to cool]].
{{Dor}}: That would have been {{atomicthumbs}}. Seconded, though, as a physics geek.
@/{{Koveras}}: Thirded by a computer scientist. :D
----
{{Medinoc}}: This one is for both some troper lost to history and TheAdvertisementServer, making it an AdOfWin as well. But even our almighty ad server couldn't have done [[http://www.medinoc.fr/web/ImagesDiverses/ImWithStupid.jpg this]] alone.
TheAdvertisementServer: MUCH AS I HATE TO SHARE CREDIT WITH ANY HUMAN, I HAVE TO ADMIT [[ActuallyPrettyFunny THAT IS RATHER HUMOROUS]] AND GIVE UNKNOWN TROPER CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE.

{{Magus}}: MOW to {{AOD}} for an incredibly interesting diatribe in the forums on meat and Western culture. It's in "Just Bugs Me!".
{{Haven}}: There's a thread for forum MoW, it's in the "pinned" section.
----
JapaneseTeeth: One MOW to everyone who contributed to the "credits" on the WhoseLineIsItAnyway [[Funny/WhoseLineIsItAnyway Crowning Moment Of Funny]] page.
ShayGuy: Agreed. All it needs is a little more "this troper"-ness.
----
GGCrono: I'd like to toss a [=MoW=] to Alexlayer for the new page pic on IncrediblyLamePun. I've seen it before, but it's just so fitting. Good show. :D
{{thatother1dude}}: To bad that, unlike the previous image, it doesn't actually ''demonstrate the trope''.
{{Haven}}: I'm confused about how replacing something that is a pun with something that ''isn't'' is a better way to demonstrate IncrediblyLamePun.
{{Pykrete}}: When I saw this [=MOW=] and checked late last night, it was [[http://media.photobucket.com/image/sephiroth%20dis%20pear/ash-valitine/final%20fantasy/th_DisPear.jpg this]] picture. Someone must've changed it this morning, perhaps the {{Collective Groan}} was too much.
{{Cassius335}}: Yeah, the "Shall I give you Dis Pear" pic definatelty fits the trope and I can see why someone would think it fitted ''too'' well...
{{Shale}} While I prefer "Several bad puns later...", I'm at a loss for how a terrible pun doesn't demonstrate a trope about terrible puns.
{{thatother1dude}}: Because it perpetuate the '''''incredibly freaking frustrating''''' notion that this article is "bitch about puns that you think are stupid" not "puns that are acknowledged as bad", which is why I've had to go through the entire article picking out non-examples ''at least four times''.
ShayGuy: It's about something? I thought it was a place to PotHole things. :P
{{Cassius335}}: "Dis pear" is at least related to the trope. "Several bad puns later" isn't even a picture.
On a semi-related note, am I the only one who actually prefers a bit of white-space to shoving a pic off to the right out of the way? Pictures catch the eye so much easier when they're on the left.
FastEddie: Good topic for the forum, rather than here.
{{thatother1dude}}: The page image thing we'll take to the discussion page.
----
{{Medinoc}}: To whomever did the media categories in GratuitousJapanese.
{{Haven}}: That was me, glad you [[strike:r]]liked it. :o)
FreezairForALimitedTime: I bust a gut at the TabletopGames section, and the associated BilingualBonus. Mmmmm... Cheetos.
----
{{Grimace}}: A bit of win for Tzetze for his work in cleaning up DanBrowned - rarely is it that simple hard work is appreciated here. Now, it should be said, more than a few others have made an effort in chainsawing the incorrect examples as well, and I give them crumbs of win also, but Tzetze gets the full point for putting the following as his "Reason": ''ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn''.
{{Cassius335}}: * chuckle* Which means?
{{Medinoc}}: From memory of Wikipedia, it translates as "in his house in R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming". Maybe Cthulhu [[SleepEating sleep-devoured]] [=1d6=] examples per second?
TropeKira: So that means that TvTropes is R'lyeh? ....Awesome.
----
FreezairForALimitedTime: One bit of nerdy but clever win for the person who put that caption on the picture on the ''LuigisMansion'' page.
{{Luthen}}: It was Cassius335 according to page history.
{{Cassius335}}: No, not the current one. He's refferering to the caption before that, which said "It's a picture... but I wouldn't call it art." The MOW point therefore goes to UnknownTroper 70.120.171.81, not me.
FreezairForALimitedTime: Awww, I liked that old caption. It was clever. (And it's "she," beeteedubs.)
{{Cassius335}}: I don't see the clever meself, but... * shrug*
FreezairForALimitedTime: May I ask, in SincerityMode, if you've truthfully played ''LuigisMansion?'' And if you have, have you ever used the GameBoy Horror for more than just warping back to the foyer/the stuff you have to use it for?
{{Cassius335}}: That would be a 'no'. I take it I missed a reference?
FreezairForALimitedTime: Ah-ha! You ''did'' miss a reference. It's what Luigi [[ICantUseTheseThingsTogether says to himself]] every time you use the GameBoy Horror examine one of the copius paintings in the mansion.
{{Cassius335}}: Ah,fair enough...
----
{{Noxshade}}:The picture comment on AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield.
----
{{Earnest}}: I approve of SpectreAgent's addition of the picture to EnemyCivilWar. That picture is illustrative in so many ways...
{{Malchus}}: I also approve of the picture choice and the caption. Although, some inane part of me thinks that those two Cylons will either kill each other or [[FoeYay start making out]]... or both. Dammit, I should take a break from reading shipping tropes...
----
rsm109: Whoever coined "AK-666" to refer to ''[[HarryPotter Avada Kedavra]]'' on BerserkButton has my undying love.
tennessean: Let me guess: that's a reference to the Russian [[GatlingGood AK-630]] [[MoreDakka CIWS]], am I right?

@/{{Koveras}}: One to TerminusEst13 for his despearate plea to the PowersThatBe in the GunKata [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GunKata?action=diff&source=y&minor=y edit history]]. I'm not being mean now, but the edit comment just cracked me up. ^^
----
{{Gemmifer}}: From SecondGayGuy: "When a major character usually comes out of the closet or at least hinted to being inside or half way through the door but a cool dropshadow covers half his body in a alluring and mysterious style[...]" Hehe.
DarkSasami: No snark intended -- what on earth does that mean?
MrDeath: I think it's an extension of the closet metaphor.
{{Gemmifer}}: Yes, I understand it like that too.
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: To whoever made Elvis a page quote on LeeroyJenkins.
----
JKRoo: One to RealSlimShadowen for all his work on JonathanCoulton's page. Now you too can get {{EarWorm}}ed by almost every song on the page. Repeatedly! All at once! [--Help.--]
RealSlimShadowen: * grabs the free hug certificate and squirrels it away, then looks longingly at his plans to make a fort out of them and realizes he's going to need to edit more*
{{Cassius335}}: Sorry, only one coupon per customer. Didn't you read the small print?
----
{{Luthen}}: One to {{Alliterator}} for his addition to OnceUponATime.
* Now, are you sitting comfortably? Then let's begin. Once upon a time...[[hottip:* :Once upon a time there was a boy who decided to stay up late and read TVTropes. Even though his parents had warned him that doing this was a bad thing, still he was compelled to do so. So, the lights of the screen illuminating his face, he carefully surfed the site, reading trope descriptions and examples, going over works pages and forum threads, until finally he looked at the clock and realized it was well past the reasonable amount of time one would surf the web. And then the boy knew his parents were right -- that by surfing TVTropes, he had [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife ruined his life]] in such a way that he could now never go sleep. He was cursed to forever surf TVTropes, haunting the YKTTW, quietly drifting from page to page like a ghost in the machine; until one day, he met someone who had been similarly trapped. She was named {{Trope-Tan}}. Together, they decided that perhaps this wasn't such a lonely place to be stuck. And so they lived and troped {{happily ever after}}.]]
----
{{Inkblot}} One for whoever wrote the following entry [[Memes/WesternAnimation here]]:
* "There's nothing more cool than being hugged by [[ManosTheHandsOfFate Torgo]], but if Torgo tries to touch you in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, DON'T EVER TRY THAT AGAIN, YOU BEAST!"

{{thatother1dude}}: From the part of the [[Characters/NeonGenesisEvangelion EVA character page]] on Yui Ikari (Shinji's mom):
"The link to the temporary picture is located at the top of this page, first page icon from the right. "

{{Rogue 7}}: One to WraithMagus for the new picture on GenreShift. I laughed out loud.

CrypticMirror: It's the sheer randomness of it that makes it funny.
{{Citizen}}: DO NOT TAUNT THE [[HappyFunBall HAPPY FUN FROG]]. I did the picture and pothole.
----
Doug S. Machina: A definite win for the page image and the caption explaining it on BloodierAndGorier.
{{thatother1dude}}: Already nominated. Several times. And that's not even a joke original to that page.
----
{{Earnest}}: Though SpectreAgent has demonstrated being above wanting or needing such trivial "awards" as I can present, I heartily award one MOW point for the page image in {{Ubermensch}}.
----
JBridge: Whoever made this little contribution to GoodBadBugs.
[[quoteblock]]Crysis features some extremely amusing bugs, but none are as awesome as the mighty Ascending Frog. By picking up a harmless frog from the ground and lofting it heavenwards, you will be awed as it proceeds into the stratosphere, unhindered by your puny gravity. Ascending Frogs can be seen in the wild in the cave immediately before the alien ship, where they cheerfully levitate, jumping vertically every time their hop animation cycles and staying that high until they hop again. Vicious brutes who shoot the noble Ascending Frog and subject it to gravity will pick the slain creature up and find it levitates above their hand, rotating slowly in righteous fury at their vile conduct and no doubt dubious sexual morals.[[/quoteblock]]
----
{{Arilou}}: Whoever named the "NiceJobBreakingItHerod" page. Made me laugh out loud.
----
Guest Of Dishonour: Big thanks and good show to SpaceDrake for his help on the ''AtelierRorona'' article, that page would have gotten bloody well nowhere if it wasn't for him (as I only had very basic knowledge of the game).
----
MetaFour: Omedalus for this bit from AnthropicPrinciple: ''"If the in-game villagers could see your hard drive, they'd realize their savior was not simply one courageous farm boy, but a veritable army of thousands of clones of said farm boy all pursuing the adventure simultaneously in some kind of creepy quantum superposition of protagonism."''
----
{{KillerClowns}}: A point to Floria for her(?) bit on SugarWiki/VillainWhitewashingService. Your second whitewashing was absolutely brilliant!
{{Medinoc}}: And a point for Haven's entry.
{{Haven}}: Thanks. I'm just glad to do my job to set the record straight about this wrongfully maligned...okay I can't go on any further.

{{thatother1dude}}: The troper lost to history responsible for this bit in ThisIsADrill
* The Fire Nation use a giant drill as a siege weapon in ''AvatarTheLastAirbender''. (episode title: "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin The Drill]]")
** Given that the country it's boring into is based on Imperial China, this could easily be called a real Chinese Fire Drill.
{{Haven}}: Seconded. And ouch. And seconded.

{{Inkblot}}: One for whoever wrote the caption for BeamSpam.

{{Grimace}} A [=MoW=] to the UnknownTroper 64.251.32.254, for this little quip at the bottom of SciFiGhetto, regarding the newly named "[=SyFy=] Channel" (put leading entry beforehand so it makes sense):
* Is it still meant to be pronounced "Sci-Fi?" This editor and everyone he knows concur that it ought to be "Siffy."

@/{{Yarrunmace}} One to the unknown troper who put the following comment on the ItJustBugsMe page for CartoonNetwork (slightly edited for grammer issues)
** This troper feels that the network has gone beyond JumpingTheShark to the point of leaving the ramp, clearing twenty sharks, clearing the Atlantic, Europe, Asia, America, the sharks again and then reaching escape velocity and crashing into Pluto.
----
{{Kinitawowi}}: One for the troper responsible for the {{Wormsign}} page; specifically, for getting a ''{{Dune}}'' example into every subsection (including RealLife).
ShayGuy: Wasn't ThisIsADrill ''criticized'' when it did that with ''TengenToppaGurrenLagann''?
Sceboal: Aren't pages that are funny in general criticized?
ThatOther1dude: And yet no one objected to doing the same with Batman examples in GrapplingHookPistol.
{{Kinitawowi}}: It works for {{Wormsign}} because ''{{Dune}}'' is the TropeNamer and the MostTriumphantExample. It worked less well for ThisIsADrill because ''Tengen'' isn't really either, as far as I can tell (disclaimer - I've never seen it), so it looks less about tribute and more about [[EntryPimp Entry Pimping]].
RealSlimShadowen: At least one person objected to the GrapplingHookPistol thing, as they edited GrapplingHookPistol to suit their tastes, cutting it down to three categories out of nine, a page quote, and a [[spoiler:fnord]]-style hidden reference.
MrDeath: Yeah, there was a whole edit war about it, after which the same person went and edited DaEditor in the same fashion.
InsanityPrelude: :| It's funny and it's not hurting anything. Sheesh.
LatwPIAT: I'll take half credit on the grounds that I added every example except Literature already there), Film (already there) and Real Life. Rest of credit goes to whoever completed the cycle.

{{Lemurian}}: One to the one who added the last line to this conversation:
* In a Marvel ''WhatIf?'' comic featuring a Soviet FantasticFour, Pym died from suffocation when Reed forced him to grow, rendering his lungs incapable of supplying enough oxygen to sustain him. Reed did this [[ForScience without considering the consequences]], and afterward he was [[WhatHaveIDone horrified by what he'd done]].
** So what you're saying is that, [[InSovietRussiaTropeMocksYou in Soviet comic book]], science fails ''you''?
----
ReadingChampion: One to whomever started the article CricketRules with the following:
"Describe Cricket Rules here.
No, really, please do; it seems to be some organized form of Calvinball."
Because... ''so true.''
L: What I like about CricketRules is how the descriptions on the page gradually devolve from staid encyclopedic description into a bizarre half-nonsensical parody of English culture and demeanour in general. [-Now I know what you're thinking, and I am ''completely'' aware that someone will now jump in and say "No, you don't understand, ''that's actually how Cricket is played''."-]
{{Haven}}: "There are exactly ten-ish ways to get the batsman out..." * head explodes*
{{Joysweeper}}: I was eating a pear when I got to ''"If it's raining, or just a bit cloudy, everyone goes into the pavilion and drinks tea. Occasionally, the umpires will come out, wander around the pitch a bit, decide it's still not sunny enough, and go back in.''" Then I was made helpless with laughter.
{{Madrugada}}: Indeed. That is masterful.

'"[[CrystalDragonJesus CRSTDRGJS_]]"'\\
CRSTDRGJS was sent to ALICE's PC!-]
{{thatother1dude}}: Already nominated.
----
{{Thnikkafan}} A MadeOfWin to whoever for the subtle potholing on the ApocalypseHow page.
* What the Integrated Data Thought Entity, the Organization, and [[TalkingToHimself Mikuru's boss]] wants to prevent indirectly by not allowing ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' to discover her powers.
----
{{Kriegsmesser}}: A win to {{Milu}} for the HeathLedger page. * salutes*
----
{{Taeraresh}}: Congratulations to whoever came up with ''GrievousBottleyHarm''. Now ''that'' is an IncrediblyLamePun.
AFreddy: For a second there, I though it said Grievous ''Buttery'' Harm, which would've been sweet.
{{Specialist290}}: But butter is kind of bland...
{{Malchus}}: I see what you did there, Freddy. Oh, by the way, no stealy my namey! ;P
----
{{Haven}}: I don't think I remembered to do this before, so: a MadeOfWin to {{occono}} for SincerityMode. [[SincerityMode It's an excellent idea!]]
----
{{thatother1dude}}: This bit from NothingIsScarier:
* ''The last man on Earth sat in a room. There was a knock upon the door.''
** For those curious, that's the ''entireity'' of Fredric Brown's short story ''Knock''.
** [[CompletelyMissingThePoint So the last woman on earth was coming over for snuggle time?]]
I literally laughed out loud.
----
{{Specialist290}}: One to {{Earnest}} for describing {{Godzilla}} as the "patron saint of collateral damage" in GodzillaThreshold. Funniest thing I've read in a while :D
{{Earnest}}: Thank you! I have my moments. ^_~
----
L: {{VoldeMart}} is just the sort of terrible pun that makes entire eyebrows fall out, fetuses start crying in the womb, and grown men's urine freeze solid mid-stream. I must give it its due.
* ShyriaDracnoir: And I have to give you [[MadeOfWin your due]] for that little bit there. Got a snicker out of me.
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW goes to the contributors to [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=ehn6d5ewjccsg0pmamd42zf4 this YKTTW]]. Normally, I'd wait until it is launched, but it seems that it won't be (for a reason).
NielJacoby: I just launched it.
@/{{Koveras}}: [[DarthWiki/HowNotToWriteAYKTTW Brilliant!]] At first, [[FridgeBrilliance I was like... but then I lol'd.]] :D You get an extra MOW for just that.
NielJacoby: For Me? [[BlindIdiotTranslation Aw, banana oil.]] * blushes* ... Extra? I never claimed to contribute In fact, I didn't contribute. But thank you for the MOW. And sorry for the misunderstanding. '''[[FridgeBrilliance Although...]]''' I ''did'' launch it, so I would ''technically'' count as a contributor. So thanks.
----
{{alliterator}}: To whoever added the picture of DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment and included this caption: ''Yo dawg, heard you like tropes, so I put a trope in your trope so you can ruin your life while you ruin your life!''
AceOfScarabs: It's a golden gag - go for ''platinum'' and make the image one of an infinitely redundant loop (Image in the image show another image with more nested inside like some demented infinite Russian Doll).
{{alliterator}}: [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike Great minds think alike!]] I did just that.
AceOfScarabs: Now you, too, deserve a [=MoW=]!
L: The fact that there's an ad embedded in the picture annoys me slightly.
{{Malchus}}: Silence, fool! You'll anger... ''[[TheAdvertisementServer HIM]].''
{{Itsmeyouidiot}}: Phht, what's he gonna do, mess up our contributor pages?
----
TheBadWolf: Whoever put this into WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma (history dosn't go back that far)
-->[[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment Please try to avoid]] [[GrammarNazi sounding like a stuck-up douchebag when adding examples]].
{{thatother1dude}}: Thank you, that was me, though I didn't add the {{Pot Hole}}s (at least not the first one). I put that there after reading the article when it was only a couple days old, with examples paragraphs truly proving WhatDoYouMeanItsNotAwesome and MinorInjuryOverreaction to be TruthInTelevision.
----
RobinZimm: I nominate {{Unistrut}}, who added to SecondLife, "LoadsAndLoadsOfLoading: Going places in SecondLife is like watching the mind erasure scenes from [[EternalSunshineoftheSpotlessMind Eternal Sunshine]] at half speed in reverse."
----
LatwPIAT: One to whoever, in the PitchTestingZone, wrote the line "then Gendo Ikari shoots Ocelot" That has to be the funniest DiabolusExMachina I've ever read.
----
InsanityPrelude: One MOW to MisterSix (I think?) for the Sierra folder on UnwinnableByMistake. More specifically, the full name of said folder.
{{Haven}}: It's kind of an [[{{Tsukihime}} eyesore]].
{{Medinoc}}: I'm surprised that Sierra appears at all in the "by mistake" category...
{{Inkblot}}: The Sierra folder was my idea, but the phrase itself came from Korora (and had already gotten a [=MoW=]). I'll trim it down so it's a bit less of an eyesore.
{{Haven}}: [[spoiler:Don't worry about it, I just said that for the meme.]]
----
Thinks Too Much: I feel guilty about nominating something for MadeOfWin so soon after the last time, but couldn't resist the following. Do bother to read all of it.
--->* Loads shotgun, shogun gun, ninja gun, samurai gun, pirate gun, robot gun, shojarairatebot gun, B B gun, bee bee gun, hornet hornet gun, yellow jacket yellow jacket gun, sword gun, gun sword, gun gun, regular grenades, flash grenades, fire grenades, bee grenades, hornet grenades, yellow jacket grenades, plasma grenades, grenade grenades, gun grenades, and pepper spray* .
That is from the [[TroperTales/ArsonMurderAndJaywalking real life]] by the way.
----
{{Crowley}}: I was pleasantly surprised to see that the [[TheStarscream Starscream]] article had a bit of a revamp, but it was this line at the end that I'm nominating.
''Of course, some suspect there are [[FoeYay other reasons]] why Megatron doesn't just shoot Starscream more often...''
----
{{thatother1dude}}: Whoever came up with the awesome joke of the trope title HollywoodCalifornia[[hottip:* :but seriously, can we be a little more original with these names?]]
L: For those that don't get it, the joke is that it means "Hollywood-style California" (as per HollywoodHomely) as well as "Hollywood, California". Subtle, subtle.
{{Cassius335}}: The trouble is that if people try to do orginal names, other people complain because they don't get it.
----
{{Enlong}}: One MOW point to whoever named OlympusMons. I [[LateToThePunchline just now]] understood the second part of the double-layered pun that is the name. [[spoiler: [[DontExplainTheJoke Olympus Mons is a mountain on Mars.]]]]
{{Medinoc}}: It's not ''only'' on Mars, you know... There is one on Earth too.
{{Enlong}}: Yes, but the martian one is the only one that's actually called "Olympus Mons" by English speakers. We call the other one "Mount Olympus". A slight difference, but there ya go.
DarkSasami: If there weren't one on Earth, there wouldn't be one on Mars. But anyway, that was me. Thanks!
schpeelah: I think it's the martian Olympus Mons being referenced b/c ''it's the largest mountain in the Solar System'' some 20 km I believe.
----
{{Sparkysharps}}: One MOW to to {{Impacto}} for the following bit in GoNagaiSideburnsDiscussion. I laughed for a full minute:
->Passing Lurker: Do Issac Asimov's sideburns qualify as a real-life example?
->{{Impacto}}: they are when he's drawn like [[http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/5700/badassimov.jpg this]] :p
{{thatother1dude}}: Agreed, and where is that pic from. Also, to answer the question:
[[http://media-2.web.britannica.com/eb-media/77/84477-004-941528F8.jpg That picture is an understatement]].
{{Inkblot}}: Since when is Asimov a [[AvatarTheLastAirbender firebender?]]
----
{{Vifetoile}}: The Page History on the Quotes/MarySue page doesn't seem to exist, but I'd still like to nominate whoever put down these lyrics. It's just ''spot-on'':
->''I am everything you want, I am everything you need,''\\
''I am everything inside of you that you wish you could be.''\\
''I say all the right things, at exactly the right time,''\\
''But I mean nothing to you, and I don't know why...''
-->-- '''Vertical Horizon''', ''Everything You Want''
----
{{Cidolfas}}: For whoever added this line in CanadianHistory (again, page history doesn't go back far enough):
March 30, 1968: Celine Dion is born. We're sorry.
----
Thinks Too Much: One for whoever made the following entries under YouKnowYouReadTooMuchTVTropesWhen... (the part about your iPod playlist titles.)
---> Another is titled PokeThePoodle, and you're not sure how it got there.
---> You refuse to even think about how you ended up with a playlist entitled MoralEventHorizon.
Oh, and a note of thanks to whoever made SlidingScaleLongName an alternate title for... I'm not typing it.
{{Cassius335}}: That would be SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism ("Cut and Paste" is your friend).
AMereServantOfGod: [[MinorInjuryOverreaction Yeah, well, maybe we don't wanna cut and paste, huh?!]] [[BerserkButton Maybe we're already cutting and pasting something, huh?!]] [[BewareTheNiceOnes Maybe some of us prefer to type, but don't want to type that much, you think?!]] [[{{Metaphorgotten}} AND MAYBE THE FISH COCKTAIL]] [[UnusualEuphemism WITH A SIDE OF CANADIAN KITTENS ON A TUESDAY]] [[TooMuchInformation THAT CAN'T SHAVE ITSELF WITHOUT]] [[HanlonsRazor THIS BABY]] [[TakeThat UNTIL YOU FALL DOWN OFF A SKYSCRAPER AND BREAK YOUR FALL WITH YOUR]] [[WhoseLineIsItAnyway ENORMOUS CREDENZA]] [[SpoonyBard YOU SPOONY BARD!!!]] [[{{Angrish}} MELOMIE IN THE MORNING SUN GRASHALK TIM TANGERS AND THEIR]] [[DrSeuss ZOOB-ZOOBLERS AND]] [[MoreDakka EVEN MORE KITTENS]] [[MemeticMutation CHUCK NORRIS SAUCE]] [[ItGotWorse AND THEN THE UNIVERSE EXPLODES!!!!!]]
[[ShoutOut Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.]]
{{Egak}}: [=MoW=] to AMereServantOfGod.
{{Cassius335}} (@ AMereServantOfGod): "I have a very simple question: What the fuck are you talking about?" (Hugh Dennis, MockTheWeek)
The original poster is thankful for the vehement championing, but [[WeCouldHaveAvoidedAllThis you could have just said]] "Have you ever heard of [[SelfDemonstratingArticle Self Demonstrating Made Of Win Posts?"]]
AMereServantOfGod (@Cassius335): You know what, I don't know either. [[FalseReassurance Move along, folks, nothing to see here...]]
----
ROBRAM89: A point to whoever fixed the unsightly redlink atop the GeekReferencePool page by making a page for RevengeOfTheNerds (or fixing the link, not certain which).
----
{{sgrunt}}: To {{kor}} and {{Lemurian}}, who put together this entertainingly {{Pot Hole}}d transcription on {{Combos}}:
* [[JoJosBizarreAdventure MUDA DA!]] ''[[RapidFireFisticuffs MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA!]] [[CallingYourAttacks ZA WARUDO!]]'' [[TimeStandsStill Toki wa tomare!]] [[AudibleSharpness (kaching! swish-swish-swish)]] [[PreMortemOneLiner Soshite toki wa ugokidasu]]. [[DeathOfAThousandCuts (stabstabstabstabstabstabstabstabstabstabstab)]] [[DroppedABridgeOnHim ROAD ROLLER DA! KERTHUD!]] [[{{Kiai}} WRYYYYYY]]!
K.o.R: Woo! My first actual [=MoW=] that wasn't nuked the second I got it!
----
Whoever put the Saturn V picture on the CrowningMomentOfAwesome page, thank you. It's perfect.
AMereServantOfGod: Seconded. And, just in case it's possible for one person to do it, I'll third it too.
----
{{Cidolfas}}: To whoever added the first quote at the top of the {{Plagiarism}} page (history doesn't seem to go back that far). It took me a few seconds before getting the joke. Kudos!
ShayGuy: I love that tag.
{{Cidolfas}}: And, unfortunately, someone has gone and made the joke much more obtruse. (It used to just have a - as the source of the quote). Too lazy to change it back, though, and not interested in an edit war.
----
the grene kni3t: To LEXicon712 for the footnote on the image caption in DidNotDoTheResearch.
----
tennessean: One MadeOfWin to {{occono}} for the coupon image in '''''this very page!'''''
----
{{Inkblot}}: To whoever made a page for TheMagicBullet.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Thanks, EtherealMutation, for filling up the actual {{Cliche}} page. It was kind of odd that a site about fictional media didn't actually have a page about them until recently.
----
Curtmack: To Servitor_2152, for the image caption on OcularGushers.
----
PaulA: The third paragraph of SuperheroParadox (by {{Meta4}}, I think?) is Made of Win. I read "But underneath the surface, the real cause of this is a cabal of extradimensional intelligences", and laughed. Then I read the rest of the sentence...
----
{{Frisko}}: One to {{Inkblot}} for his/her explanation as to why someone in WMG/DoctorWho must be be a Time Lord.
{{Inkblot}}: That was...quick. Thanks, though!
----
{{Neep}}: One to whoever added that awesome page image to HighClassGlass. Love it!
{{Haven}}: Glad you like it!
----
{{whitetigah}}: One to UnknownTroper @ 87.127.17.167 for taking the lines I've been stealthily adding over the past few weeks to ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' (all repetitions of "Kyon-kun, denwa~ / We've entered an endless recursion of time" but the first one) and adding the potholes.
----
CountDorku: One to LLSmoothJ (and anyone else involved; I don't have time to check all of them) for all of the Laconic descriptions of the "You Fail X Forever" tropes. For anyone who hasn't seen them, each one basically goes,
-->SUBJECT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!\\
[-[[YouFailSubjectForever GOODNIGHT!]]-]
----
ROBRAM89: I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but the existence of ThePenisMightier (see the real page, ThePenIsMightier) is hilarious. It's too bad AnAlbumCover is too vague to make a trope out of.
{{Inkblot}}: I remember that name from the BiggusDickus YKTTW. I'm glad to see some troper gave it a home, even if it's just as a joke.
{{Haven}}: So are you giving the pmwiki software a MadeofWin point for working that way? Or are you giving Rothul one for adding that pothole at the bottom?
JohnnyE: Personally I want to see a {{Psychotherapist}} trope, just for the options PsychoTherapist and PsychoTheRapist. Or perhaps just go for the ArrestedDevelopment ShoutOut with "{{Analrapist}}" (a cross between an analyst and a therapist, of course). Oh, and there's now a [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=vmkabdowmuaoj4b6yb62dlbc&page=1# 1 Fun With Wiki Words forum game]] by the way.
----
{{Medinoc}}: Has somebody mentioned yet the... traumatizing pic from HardGay?
{{Inkblot}}: ''You will never get that image out of your head.''
{{thatother1dude}}: Well, that explains how the damn things [[HollywoodDensity weighed 73 pounds]].
----
{{Earnest}}: If I could direct your attention to this bit of banter in an example of EqualOpportunityEvil, I'm sure you'll agree that UT 87.127.17.167 and MatthewTheRaven deserve a MOW point.
** Is being a Samurai counted as a disability these days?
*** Yes. He's in a SpaceWestern. He's legally GenreBlind, and any reasonable government would have issued him a troping-eye dog.
ScudEast: That's ''very'' nice. Was I the only one who assumed it referred to the Operative from ''{{Serenity}}'' until I clicked the link?
ThatOther1Dude: I figured it might have had ''something'' to do with ''{{Firefly}}''.
MatthewTheRaven: The Operative is a space ninja, fighting against space cowboys and cannibalistic space pirates. The classic triumvirate of pirate-ninja-cowboy. But thanks. I just wish I'd been keeping track of these.
----
Mizaru: QuantumMariahCareyProblem, in its entirety. If I had to choose a single greatest page on this wiki, that would definitely be a serious candidate.
{{Inkblot}}: * claps*
tennessean: Sorry to rain on your parade, but I nominated that like several months to a year back. Still, it's an awesome article!
----
{{Wolfgirl44}}: I would like to give a MOW for whoever is responsible for this line on RunningGag: "Alternatively, a Running Gag is what you do on the way to the toilet after the joke has been repeated too often." That was the most laughing I've done in a while.
----
{{Earnest}}: One well earned MOW to {{Lizuka}} for the... err... "picture" in EmptyRoomPsych.
----
{{fleb}}: SusanDavis wins for the RealLife example of ChandlersLaw.
----
{{Sneebs}: I wish to nominate the image used for LethalJokeCharacter. [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/oshgfp_resize.jpg Just look at it!]] Funny, ddynamic and effectively illustrates the concept oh-so-well. I approve!
InkkiBookman: Heheheh, a CMOA for Aquaman? whatever will they think of next?
{{Inkblot}}: I think what InkkiBookman's ''trying'' to say (that phrase really should have a page on here) is that someone else already nominated that picture.
----
{{Jesin}}: Here's one for whoever potholed "[[MindScrew pure functional languages]]" on the MultiCoreProcessor page.
----
AGuy: A MadeOfWin to whoever got the picture for HaveAGayOldTime, I just couldn't stop laughing.
----
{{Gemmifer}}: zeroplusalpha for: "{{Tearjerker}}: All of great and ruinous loves, few are greater or more ruinous than great and ruinous kung fu love."
(From the {{Wuxia}} entry.) So true.
{{Haven}}: I hope the {{engrish}} wasn't part of the joke, because if so I just went and ruined it.
zeroplusalpha: [[strike: It ''was'' part of the joke. But it's back in its original form now.]] I just went through the page history; it was a mistake, I must have been typing in a hurry, I don't normally write with that degree of inaccuracy. Your edit stands. Oh, and a big "thank you" to Gemmifer. ^_^
----
Deuxhero:Made of win to 92.2.5.204 for this bit in {{Natter}}
** ThisTroper likes waffles
I personally added the proceeding bits, but that definitlly surpased what I did.
----
Fixed ''that'' message! tennessean:
[[spoiler:Still great, though.]] Don't believe his lies--this was already nominated for a MadeOfWin! {{Haven}}:
Seconded. ScudEast:
Fixed your message. Sceboal:
Genius. Designing a page in complete reverse order based around a movie going in complete reverse order? A win goes out to whomever designed the {{Memento}} page. Clendy82:
----
RadicalTaoist: Props to {{Hanz}} for the clever "restart" button pothole in the [[LaconicWiki Laconic]] entry to [[Laconic/IWannaBeTheGuy I Wanna Be The Guy]]. Reminds me of exactly what happen whenever I restarted in that game!
----
InsanityPrelude: I laughed out loud when I saw the name of NiceJobBreakingItHerod. Who came up with that one?
SomeSortOfTroper: [[http://www.zshare.net/audio/63281629a1301607/ This says]] sgamer82.
----
SilentHunter: One to all those who improved the ''RedStormRising'' entry.
* {{Taeraresh}}: Seconded. Excellent summary of the book, and a well-done listing of tropes.
----
{{Dinru}}: Go to DescribeTopicHere. Scroll down to the indexes. The top index... look to the right. Go ahead, I'll wait. B
Basically, the link on the index bar at the bottom says, linking to MemeticMutation.
-->Yo dawg, we heard you like descriptions of topics, so we put an example in your example, so you can get a topic described to you while a topic is described to
Made. Of. Win. [[JustAddBitch Bitches]].
Thatother1dude: [[strike:Is the fact that that part is repeated part of the joke? Anyway, how the hell did you--]] OK, now I see how that works.
----
RySenkari: To whoever made this brilliantly prescient comment about the current state of The Weather Channel (and everything I hate about it):
-->The worst thing about this is that most destructive weather occurs in the evening hours. Need to see if the damaging winds and storms are headed your way? Too bad! Watch this documentary on Peruvian mudslides instead!
{{Rothul}}: Not that it isn't accurate to say that weather channels should focus on the current weather, and, as I'm no meteorologist I would find it a learning experience to be corrected, but shouldn't the various types of weather, destructive or otherwise, be spaced out relatively equally across all times of day, vis a vis, time zones? Or is it that weather in the evening is more destructive because darkness makes it harder to respond?
tennessean: Severe storms tend to happen in the afternoon and evening hours because the air, having absorbed more of the Sun's energy, is more energetic. The low sunlight of the evening hours, in conjunction with the massive amout of cloud cover, make it hard to spot oncoming disasterous weather (e.g., hail and tornadoes) unless you look when lightning is illuminating the area, and even then it's a (''very'' dangerous) crapshoot.
{{Rothul}}: Thank you! Now I know! AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle!
tennessean: Thank you! And it helps that I made meteorology my major, as I'm fascinated by severe weather!
----
NielJacoby: To whoever put this in RunningGag:
-->I shink dat whoever wrote this exshample is one fiiine shpeshimen of human beer. Bing. Thinggy. Anywaysh, I shalute dem, and bid thee a fond adidas. Adiya. Byebye. * dies*
Such a great response to the wall of {{egregious}}ness.
SchizoTechnician: Shank you. You're too kingd. Reaally.
----
HarpieSiren: Too whoever wrote this exchange in SweetAndSourGrapes:
* But it shouldn't matter what he looks like. The prince (and everyone else in the castle) becoming human again is his reward.
* EXACTLY. Oh my GOD, I am so glad somebody finally got that being restored to his true form is his reward, not hers.
Simply because it's refreshing to see someone not miss the point of that part of BeautyAndTheBeast ''so completly'' and have a kneejerk "BrokenAesop" reaction, as Tropers seem wont to do.
{{Vifetoile}}: Seconded.
----
SparkyLurkdragon: TsundeRay wins forever for the Laconic SuperSmashBros. entry.
----
rsm109: MadeOfWin to whoever potholed 1453 to IstanbulNotConstantinople on FlyingBroomstick. My inner history geek (and not-so-inner ''EuropaUniversalis'' [[JustOneMoreLevel addict]]) takes his hat off to you.
LadyJafaria: ...Even knowing the Ottomans didn't automatically rename Constantinople, that's still made of win.
----
{{Freiberg}}: A MadeOfWin to {{Momonga}} for a lightbulb joke. How many tropers does it take to change a light bulb?
Well, first they have to remove the lampshade...
@/{{Koveras}}: And another one from me, since it cracked me up. :D
----
{{G-Mon}}: A MadeOfWin to {{thatother1dude}} for the {{Pot Hole}}d HotSkittyOnWailordAction on NoodleImplements.
Thatother1Dude: Thank you. Funnily enough, just yesterday I remembered writing that took a while to remember how.
----
GameGuruGG: MadeOfWin for {{alliterator}} for [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=4uuu70hi3uhjqlrj7ks13mfn&page=1# 12 The Ballad Of Big Naming]] I'm not sure of the [=MOW=] rules for forum posts, but he deserves it!
----
{{HeartBurn Kid}}: A double-frosted [=MoW=] with sprinkles for the person who inserted the ''anti''-Rickroll into TheJimmyHartVersion, on the Crono Trigger example.
{{Micah}}: That would be me. Thanks!
----
{{Kizor}}:A warm [=MoW=] to the people responsible for making the metaphors in DyingLikeAnimals work for its entire length. This may have to include Aesop the Greek.
{{Earnest}}: I can only take 1/22nd of the MOW point, but thanks! Check out the [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=jdfd5mpv&trope=DyingLikeAnimals YKTTW]] and [[DyingLikeAnimalsDiscussion discussion]] if you want to get an idea of the effort that went into it. Personally, I like that bit in the Termites entry where they never notice [[TheGrimReaper the aardwolf]] coming.
----
MrDeath: MadeOfWin to the unknown troper at 96.246.3.181 who added "When the oracle said that Belkar should savor his next birthday cake, shouldn't fund his IRA, and that he'll draw his last breath before the end of the year, ''he meant that Belkar will die''." to the OrderOfTheStick [[WMG/OrderOfTheStick WMG page]]. After all of the wishful thinking [=WMGs=] about convoluted ways Belkar would survive, it was ''very'' refreshing to see that. ''Thank you'', troper, whoever you are.
!!! [[DarthWiki/{{Ptitle0oqcngiv}} ~]]: I'm glad you enjoyed it. Although, if you look closely, though I may be [[MysteriousWatcher unknown]], I was indeed logged in.
----
{{Grimace}}: One very groany-worthy but perfectly placed MOW to {{Thande}} for his post on DiscreditedMeme, at the very end of the bit about no longer quoting MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail:
** Does that mean [[CompletelyMissingThePoint the parroting has ceased to be]]?
{{Inkblot}}: ...
[[BlatantLies I hate you.]]
{{Niel Jacoby}}: And one [[http://xkcd.com/391/ Made Of Win The Game]] point to us all. Divide it however you like.
----
{{nine}}: I'd like to propose a MadeOfWin for whoever wrote this line in ThirtyXanatosPileup:
-->Of course, it's quite easy to tell who's side Jack is on. [[ChaoticNeutral He's on Jack's side.]]
----
@/{{Koveras}}: I'm probably not the first one to do so but I'd like to award a(nother?) MOW to the author of the poem parts of SoYouWantTo/BeTheNextWilliamShakespeare. I enjoyed them so much, I had to read them out loud to savor the sound. ^^
{{Nightsky}}: Seconded, plus I just noticed that the title quote is very nearly a sonnet! (And a Shakespearian sonnet at that.) Just a ''bit'' of tweaking, maybe... I'm not the poem's original author, but I might have a go later. Erm. If that sort of thing is okay with the poet...
{{Vifetoile}}: * beams* Yes, it is ''very'' okay. I am the author of the poetry (and most of the prose) on that page - most of it was done back when I was still an Unknown Troper. Thank you both so much, and feel free to tweak it to make it better. :) Thanks again!
----
{{Thnikkafan}}: Made of Win to whoever posted this on the GodModeSue page.
** ThePowerOfLove does not excuse beating the shit out of a living tank with your bare hands.
----
{{Haven}}: From the LaconicalListOfSubtleTropeDistinctions:
-->PreAssKickingOneLiner: "I'm gonna kick your ass."
-->PreMortemOneLiner: "I'm kicking your ass."
-->BondOneLiner: "I kicked your ass."
-->QuipToBlack: "Looks like this man... got his ass kicked."
{{Vifetoile}}: Seconded.
{{Deuxhero}}: I added the Grissom/QuipToBlack one (someone else wrote the other 3), so 1/4 [=MoW=] credit? edit:Checked, it seems it was in the orignal YKTTW by JonnyD (not in one of the replys, so I assume he wrote it)
{{Haven}}: Ahh, go ahead and take a full [=MoW=] =D
Sceboal: Sure, go ahead and take the full MoW. Wait, let me rephrase that, YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!
{{Freiberg}}: I definitely agree here. Take a full Made of win.
----
K.o.R: Made Of Win to whoever wrote the Bowdlerise page. I got a question right on University Challenge thanks to TV Tropes!
SilentHunter: Thanks for that. I initially created it, but others added to it, so all the big people should get a MOW for that.
{{Deuxhero}}: Requires more info.
----
{{pagad}}: Made of Win to whoever re-wrote the '''[[BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED]]''' page.
{{Inkblot}}: Thanks, but I really recommend splitting the page like we did with TheToblerone: One normal page and one BRIAN BLESSIFIED. THE CONSTANT ALL CAPS make the page difficult to read.
{{Grimace}}: Good god. I mean, I concur with the MOW, but now I have [[BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED]] SHOUTING IN MY BRAIN. * ahem*
----
{{Haven}}: Made of Win to {{MrD}} for this little burst of nostalgia in TroperTales/TroperTales: "solved a mystery... and rewrote history.... [[DuckTales TROPER TALES]]! Wooooo-oooh!"
----
Andygal: A Win to the anonymous individual who edited the entry about Argus Hundred-Eye in ExtraEyes with the following "That's as many as ten tens, AndThatsTerrible" Got a snicker out of me thanks.
----
DragonQuestZ: Win to Citizen for the SugarWiki picture (and some to inkblot for touching up the picture to be visible on darker monitors).
{{Inkblot}}: Sugar glowy pastel Vader [[color:red:&# 9829;]]
{{Joysweeper}}: Using the Hello Kitty Vader? Huh. You know, I heard it was photoshopped from an [[http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13343 all-white Vader suit]]. Just felt like throwing out some trivia.
----
{{Garfman}}: I am surprised and delighted how quickly the OlympusMons picture was changed to the appropriate VGCats image.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: A MadeOfWin to DragonQuestZ for NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer, an excellent substitute for the original page that makes it actually trope-worthy. Kudos also to whoever rescued the fitting examples.
DragonQuestZ: It just made sense that if some people in the show say the line then it was an actual trope. Now I know what it feels like to make a viable replacement card in MagicTheGathering for a GameBreaker card.
{{Haven}}: I believe that analogy is worth a quarter of a win all on its own. (It was going to be half, but then it was {{nerf}}ed.)
----
{{Inkblot}}: One for whoever wrote this suggestion in {{Troll}}:
* Make Bella a HardGay ScaryBlackMan who rapes puppies for fun and manhandles Edward every night. Blame it on vampirefucker fuck-magic. Change her name to Kareemson. We could go on and on about the Canon Defilement possibilities for Twilight.
----
JBridge: One Win to whoever came up with the current picture for {{Gorn}}. Five bucks says it's {{SugarWiki/Matrix}}.
DragonQuestZ: It was MaverickHunter4024, and the bastard [[BloodierAndGorier stole my idea]].
----
cg12345: I'd like to nominate whoever came up with the idea of the {{Trivia}} category. It's a great compromise that gets rid of the overused running gag that I Am Not Making This Up degenerated into, and still allows us to preserve all the juicier bits from it.
thatother1dude: Are all of the old examples from I Am Not Making This Up supposed to be moved if there's a page for them?
cg12345: I'm not really sure, but all the Trivia pages I've looked at seem to be sections from the erstwhile IANMTU section with the Natter removed.
{{Haven}}: At least [[Trivia/OrderOfTheStick one isn't]]. [[spoiler:I always wanted a place to put the bit about Elan being an FF6 cosplayer, but it wasn't exactly a trope, and it's exactly something someone would say IANMTU after.
-----
{{Haven}}: One [=MoW=] to whoever came up with the caption in LawyerFriendlyCameo. "Ceci n'est pas un Copyright Infringement."
----
Curtmack: From [[{{WMG/LuckyStar}} Lucky Star]] WildMassGuessing, suggesting that Konata and Kagami are an official couple.:
* They've got a PortmanteauCoupleName.
** ...Konami?
*** We also refer to them as "Contra Code."
@/{{Koveras}}: I'm responsible for the first line, so I'll just snatch a third of that MOW. ;)
----
{{Master Hand}}: Who's responsible for turning the bottom half of the picture on the {{Candle Jack}} page black? Granted, it'd be funnier if it was white, bu
{{Inkblot}}: That was me. Oh, and thanks for the suggestion! I'll turn it white now.
ScudEast: The joke was present in the original image, which fades out at the bottom.
{{Schrau}}: Yeah, I'm pretty sure the original pic looked like a image file that had got corrupted during download.
----
GameGuruGG: Did anyone give a MadeOfWin for whoever wrote the picture caption to FacePalm? I imagined it sounding EXACTLY like in the [=HeadOn=] Commercial and it made me laugh out loud. No MadeOfWin for that Kyon picture on that page, because it goofed up by using face instead of forehead.
WillyFourEyes: Why, thank you. And I'm terribly sorry for making you think of that meme.
GameGuruGG: The commercials needs mocking and snarking. Yes, they do.
----
AndyWaltfeld: A very special thanks to {{Truec}} for helping me rediscover the little bundle of crass humor and dated {{GameFAQs}} memes we like to call {{RFU}}.
Truec: Well somebody had to do it. I'm just glad someone came in after me and rewrote the page so it didn't suck.
----
Thatother1dude: OK, I know I just did one, but I still have to say something about whoever came up with the title "ActualPacifist".
tennessean: Although I didn't come up with that one, it reminded me that we need a "BadassPacifist" page.
{{Madrugada}}: I think ActualPacifist was {{Fedora Pirate}}'s.
----
Thatother1Dude: two things from DarthWiki/WarpThatAesop:
# ANY PROBLEM can be solved with LIBERAL APPLICATION OF CAPITAL LETTERS. (it's funnier if read what lead up to it)
# Darth Wiki Warp That Aesop page: It's okay to distort the truth and promote bad morality if it entertains you.
----
T-Jack: One to Korora for the last pothole in this example from {{Unwinnable}}:
* [[RuleOfThree Sierra Sierra Sierra ]] ''[[RoomFullOfCrazy Sierra Sierra]]'' [[MadnessMantra SIERRA]] [[ThisIsSPARTA SIERRA]] '''[[LargeHam SIERRA]] [[RunningGag SIERRA]] ''[[AxCrazy ARARARRRGGGH]][[{{Discworld/Maskerade}} !!!!!]]'''''
----
{{Lurkerbunny}}: A MoW to the unknown Troper who added the hilarious respose to this entry on the LiteCreme page:
* In Canada, buying "maple butter" is definitely way better than buying "map-o-spread".
** "Map-o-spread"? Are you sure that's a food and not a device for automatically unfolding and displaying maps?
If I hadn't just swallowed my drink seconds before reading that, I would have needed a new keyboard.
----
Sceboal: A MoW to whoever made the laconic page for Laconic/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha.
AMereServantOfGod: So, wait...Magcal Girl Lyrical Nanoha is all of television squeezed into one show?
{{prescience}}: @Sceboal: Thanks. Hooray, my first [=MoW=]!
@AMereServantOfGod: I don't quite understand what you're saying...
@/{{Koveras}} to AMereServantOfGod: Yup, ''Nanoha'' is just that awesome. [[HypeAversion Go watch it already.]] ;)
----
{{Redkun}}: A MoW to the person who described ''LastActionHero'' as "one of the few movies whose genre is accurately described as "Other".
----
{{Kizor}}: A thank-you to the presently unknown namer of DiscardAndDraw. There's no YKTTW, so it might be older than dirt. I still laughed.
{{Micah}}: I could have sworn I remembered reading a YKTTW for that page, but I can't find it. Maybe it was a rename discussion?
-----
{{Sparky Lurkdragon}}: A long-overdue MoW to whoever added "[[SkiesOfArcadia Ramirez. Ramirez. Ramirez.]]" to PsychoSupporter. Makes me laugh to this day even though I love the guy, or possibly because I do.
----
Tapioca: A solid gold MoW to 71.62.164.116 for this example of MichaelBay's SignatureStyle
* When MichaelBay wakes up in the morning, he moves quickly to get out of his exploding bed, before eating his cereal and tossing out the exploding box. He drives to the studio, jumps out of his exploding car, and then speaks to some dangerous looking government agents, military troops, and disproportionately attractive computer experts, who all promptly explode. He then takes a gun that fires explosions and has a duel with Megan Fox, who also explodes, and then throws away the exploding gun. Finally, he finishes a hard day's work by riding into the sunset on a helicopter. Which then explodes.
----
L: {{Micah}}, for selling off those extra [=YKTTWs=] in time for the financial new year.
{{Micah}}: Thanks! I highly recommend this as a way of wasting potentially near-infinite amounts of time.
----
: The sugar joke on SanityHasAdvantages. Heh.
----
{{Medinoc}}: One MOW to trouserwearingbarbarian, for the name TookALevelInDumbass. I almost spat my panini byte out launghing.
:I used that a long time ago on TallDarkAndSnarky (blackadder example). It links to TookALevelInBadass because it predates the trope.
----
FuseNevis: I just want to thank everyone who made the {{Prototype}} page into what it is today, since it was the first page I created. So yeah, thanks guys!
----
Curtmack: To gkong3, for the last line in this exchange on MagicSkirt:
* There were some comments about Yuki Nagato's fight against [[spoiler:Ryoko Asakura]] in ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' about how her acrobatics never actually led to any panty-flashes.
** Likewise, Haruhi's dropkick of the Computer Club President with nary of glimpse of her panties also fits this trope.
** Because of the nature of both girls (especially Yuki), this is more "Powered by Microsoft SQL" Skirt...
----
{{sgrunt}}: to {{thatother1dude}} for the picture on IncrediblyLamePun.
Thatother1dude: Thank you. I myself would like to thank [[ImageBoards /co/]] for the beyond cringe-inducing deluge of puns which warranted someone to post that pic.
----
{{Haven}}: One to {{Egak}} for the caption on RandomNumberGod: ''The only people who should roll dice are those who are prepared to roll a 1.'' Supremely badass, funny, and {{shoutout}}acular, and I'll have to use it the next time I game.
{{Donomni}}: Oh, wow, that's an awesome reference.
{{Egak}}: Thanks. I've been wondering if anyone had gotten the full scope of the joke, though. [[spoiler:The picture it's captioning is the RNG monster from ''BillyVsSNAKEMAN'', that you fight with an ability you can only make stronger by doing the ''CodeGeass'' parody plotline.]]
{{Haven}}: Oh, nice!
----
{{Dinru}}: One to the people who {{Entry Pimp}}'d the page for YouHaveToBurnTheRope. Seriously that page is epic especially considering the game it's of. Another for whoever thought making the DarthWiki page for {{Eversion}}.
{{Medinoc}}: Speaking of ''{{Eversion}}'', I think we could make the Darth page even better by replacing the picture by a picture of the exact same location as the normal page, only in world X-7 or X-8.
ShayGuy: Except you can't everse that far on that level. So we'd have to cut and paste sprites and assemble it from scratch, unless {{Zaratustra}} lends a hand.
Sceboal: I believe that both of these have already been done.
{{Donomni}}: I already got [=MoW'd=] down for the ''{{Eversion}}'' bit, but thanks anyways!
L: You can make it so that you can evert anywhere you want by changing these lines in scripts/main.rb in Eversion's directory:
[[folder:Secret coding skills]]
Replace this:
@@if (getButton(4)>0 && $glimmer!=0) then\\
setButton(4,0);\\
$darkness+ =($glimmer<=>0);@@
with this:
@@if (getButton(4)>0) then\\
setButton(4,0);\\
$darkness+ =1;\\
$darkness=0 if ($darkness>7);@@
[[/folder]]
ShayGuy: Thanks. [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eversion1-7-cropped.png Take]] your [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eversion1-8-cropped.png pick]], then.
{{Medinoc}}: Thank ''you''. I put the 1-7 pic, because I think the tiles are more recognizable.
----
Curtmack: To SAMAS, for the image caption on PlayboyBunny. I literally lol'd.
* Yay me!
----
{{sgrunt}}: One for team WikiMagic - especially L, {{RobinZimm}}, and UnknownTroper 72.66.95.69 - for [[strike:at least tripling]] almost ''quintupling'' the length of the list of ExampleAsAThesis in the two days that it's existed.
DragonQuestZ: Yes, that's one from me too. I didn't think it would grow so fast when I ykttw'ed it. So I guess it was an index many tropers were just waiting for.
----
{{SAMAS}}: Related to the one below, to Unknown Troper 68.164.2.138 for puting VindicatedByHistory at the bottom of the article. It brought a tear to my eye.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Many, many thanks to SapphireAgain for the modification of MichaelJackson's example in FallenCreator. Even if it was in reaction to AlasPoorScrappy, changing the original's disdainful tone to a more fitting tragic tone does a great service to the man.
----
MrEtaoinShrdlu: The "little anecdote" on FastEddie's page was perhaps not quite the awesome-funny kind of stuff in most of these examples, but its conclusion is rather inspirational. Perhaps we could add a link to it on WelcomeToTVTropes.
----
{{Haven}} for adding the very last bit in the following description from DangerouslyGenreSavvy (italics mine):
* [Azula] has had occasional moments of genre-blindness, but learns from them. She initially had a RedshirtArmy, but instead traded it for a QuirkyMinibossSquad after one [[SurroundedByIdiots screws up her plan]], and after she tried to go after Aang [[LeaveHimToMe alone]], her next attempt was accompanied by her brother, an entire squad of secret police, ''and someone voiced by Clancy Brown''.
{{Haven}}: Thanks! Never pays to underestimate dudes voiced by that guy, even Batman found that out the hard way.
{{Rothul}}: Of course, in the end, said dude voiced by Clancy Brown had the unfortunate luck to oppose Azula when she had someone voiced by Mark Hammill waiting in the wings.
{{Haven}}: Mm. And the good guys only escaped thanks to someone voiced by Mako[[hottip:* :''que en paz ensconce'']].
----
Thatother1dude: The pic for ''DarkerThanBlack''.
----
WillyFourEyes: Anon at 68.81.139.76 gets a Win point for the picture in AmbiguouslyGay.
----
{{whitetigah}}: One for Sceboal, for adding the final line in TroperTales/MoralGuardians.
----
Thatother1Dude: The "[[{{Fictionary}} Hrair]] [[ThirtyXanatosPileup Xanatos Pileup]]" bit on the ''WatershipDown'' article.
ShayGuy: [[MadeOfWinArchiveEarly2009 Already done.]]
----
{{Medinoc}}: One for whoever renamed XanatosFuneral. Very clever.
InkkiBookman: And it kinda rhymes too.
{{Medinoc}}: Why do you think I said it was clever? ;-)
Thatother1Dude: From TheOtherWiki, "In Greek mythology, Thánatos (in Greek, &# 920;&# 940;&# 957;&# 945;&# 964;&# 959;&# 962; - "Death") was the dæmon personification of Death"
{{Haven}}: And now, [[DontExplainTheJoke he has come for this joke.]]
[[AC:I will treasure it.]]
----
JapaneseTeeth: One for whoever added the picture to CounterAttack. It's the funniest thing I've seen all day.
----
{{alliterator}}: One for whoever added this hilarious example to BigLippedAlligatorMoment:
* At the end of the Japanese version of ''Frankenstein Conquers the World'' (does anyone expect this sentence to end well?) the monster gets randomly attacked by a [[NaughtyTentacles giant octopus]] [[MisplacedWildlife wandering through]] ''[[UndergroundMonkey the forest]]''.
:Is there an MST3K-version of this film that I can watch?
----
{{Inkblot}}: One for all the preps who [[WikiMagic Wiki Magic'd]] the MyImmortal page.
InkkiBookman: Just the picture itself deserves a Win.
{{DracMonster}}: I grabbed it it from the encyclopedia dramatica entry on it, don't know who made it.
----
{{Haven}}: One to vifetoile for "{{Trope-Tan}} and the StartOfDarkness". This should totally be canon. Especially Wikimedea. And the use of [=TWoP=]-kun.
{{Vifetoile}}: * Does a happy dance* Thank you very much! (I didn't invent Wikimedea, but I kind of wish I did.) (Between [=TWoP=]-kun and Wikipe-tan, Trope-Tan is going to be very busy...) While I'm here, I'd like to start a round of applause for sgrunt, who tirelessly fixed all the pot holes that were in the original entry. * bows* Thanks, sgrunt, and thank you, Haven. :)
{{sgrunt}}: Hooray! I did something appreciated!
@/{{Koveras}}: And I invented Wikimedea. Do I get a fraction of MOW, too? ^^;
----
JackButler: To Michael, for MadeFromRealGirlScouts.
Michael: Thanks. And thanks to [[AddamsFamily Wednesday]] for such a potent title that I had to suggest it.
----
ThatOther1Dude: Whoever wrote the MichaelMcConnohie article.
----
Sceboal: A Made of Win to everyone who tried to comfort other people in the TroperTales page of TroperTales/AwfulTruth. While to me it seems like they're not really doing a good job at it, the fact that they try is just [[CrowningMomentOfHeartWarming heart warming.]]
----
{{Zeke}}: One to {{Chariset}} for "Record Of Loudness War", the trope name I most wish I'd thought of. Painfully clever.
* Thankee, kind sir. It just goes to show that the best puns are the ones you throw out without really thinking about them.
----
{{Antheia}}: A point to whoever subtly made TheMockbuster a SelfDemonstratingArticle (sort of).
Sagaril: Ohoho! I see what they did there! Clever. Very much seconded.
{{sgrunt}}: Thirded - subtle and clever all in one.
SilentHunter: Fourthed. Especially the last line of the intro.
DragonQuestZ: That was a joint effort by many of us, but I take credit for the last lines, to make the fit with the other blue links.
FreezairForALimitedTime: I threw in a couple when I rewrote it, and edited a couple others so they sounded more "natural." So I guess that's, what, a tenth of a point?
----
{{Haven}}: One point to whoever's responsible for the BoobyTrap example in OrderOfTheStick.[[color:fuchsia:[[hottip:* :I prepared Explosive Runes this morning.]]]]
----
Src9: Points to {{herczy}} for this:
UnresolvedSexualTension:
* Neon Genesis Evangelion is chock full of this. Of course, it doesn't really go anywhere.
** Like School Rumble.
** This is even... ehm... handwaved at the beginning of End Of Evangelion, If You Know What I Mean.
{{Medinoc}}: Wow. Seconded, so much.
----
ShayGuy: {{alchixinren}} for observing that the ChineseLanguage has LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters.
{{Cukeman}}: Oh, that's ''[[IncrediblyLamePun terrible]]''!
{{Haven}}: Terrib''ly awesome'' morelike.
FreezairForALimitedTime: ''Ahahahaha.''
Sceboal: ''Italics.''
{{Antheia}}: Don't forget AlternateCharacterReading. I don't know if I should groan or giggle.
----
MrEtaoinShrdlu: I nominate whoever removed my little "addition" to the [[TheStinger stinger]] on Crowning Moment / CrowningMoment/RealLife. Even though I put it there. Some kind of wordless meta-ShutUpHannibal.
-----
@/{{Koveras}}: I don't think ''TVTropesTheWebcomic'' has been awarded a MOW yet, so here's one to all contributors (excluding yours truly) at once. I totally love the comic [[spoiler:and would like to see it published somewhere, already]].
{{Inkblot}}: I don't get it. Webcomics are normally more common than $20 hookers. Why hasn't anyone drawn a single strip?
{{Malchus}} @Koveras - Actually, I think it already has. IIRC, I found out about it thanks to a MOW.
@Inkblot - I actually was thinking of making pseudo-cover art for use as the page image.
ShayGuy: This is the first I've heard of it.
@/{{Koveras}}: @Malchus: I've looked through the MOW archives first and only found several [=MOWs=] for ''TV Tropes TV'' and one for ''TV Tropes RPG''... Maybe you found one of these and discovered the Webcomic via the links?
{{Malchus}}: Hm, I guess I confused one of those for it, then. Huh, Now I wonder how I did stumble across it. On another note, since this really seems to be ''{{TV Tropes The Webcomic}}'s'' first MOW after all, I heartily second it.
-----
ScudEast: Just when I thought our beloved Wiki couldn't get any geekier, the translation project moves on to include [[Qu/HomePage Quenya]]. {{Micah}} receives a [=MoW=] as the responsible party.
DragonQuestZ: Damn. When I first suggested translated pages I didn't think it would go this far. Cool.
The Jackal: And don't forget the [[AlBhed/HomePage Al Bhed Home Page]]. Made me laugh.
{{Rothul}}: The Al Bhed translation was me, but the MOW point goes to BarkleyShutUpAndJamGaiden, where I got the idea from.
@/{{Koveras}}: I wonder when the Klingon translation is gonna appear...
{{Micah}} Thanks! Anyone who knows anything about Quenya really should come nitpick my grammar; I'm not actually all that fluent.
L: If this continues any further, we're soon going to get Morse Code, [[http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/EBG13 ROT13]], [[http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/MD5 MD5]], [[http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Beatboxing Beatboxing]] and [[http://darthsanddroids.net/episodes_poetry/0001_poetry.html Poetry]] translations of pages.
{{Rothul}}: Not to mention NewSpeak, Pig Latin, Ubbi Dubbi, Simple English and Glossolalia.
{{alliterator}}: I'm sorry. [[Po/HomePage You made me do it.]] I just couldn't resist.
RadicalTaoist: No, you couldn't. That deserves a MOW of its own right there, alliterator.
{{Thnikkafan}}: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Hax/HomePage It had to be done.]] (Personally, I think it turned out to be more of a TotallyRadical version of L33tSp3ak, with a bit of FunetikAksent thrown in)
----
Negative Zero: Points to whoever made the laconic for ShinMegamiTensei redirect to NintendoHard.
L: But... that's not a very laconic page!
{{Medinoc}}: Fixed it.
DeuxHero: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Laconic/ShinMegamiTensei?action=diff That would be me]].
----
The Jackal: One for adam850 for his post in [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=t0e6qfnda8488ulqpnp6c42m&page=2 this thread]]. It's about the 12th one down.
ShayGuy: You can link to [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=t0e6qfnda8488ulqpnp6c42m&page=2# 37 individual posts]]. Just click the timestamp.
The Jackal: Didn't know that. Thanks for telling me.
{{Adam850}}: Thanks. I wasn't sure if anyone thought that was funny.
----
{{Rhainor}}: One [=MoW=] to whoever wrote this in TheBigO's trope listings:
->KudzuPlot: [[strike: High]] ''it's like a friggin' [[KatamariDamacy katamari ball]] went through an EpilepticTree orchard''.
----
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: A point to Artman40 for this entry in [[Horrible/{{Music}} Horrible/Music.]] The links to YouTube have a certain style...
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsT2FiajyLQ Pirated]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xI5Eo1G8QE video]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwBKW0kDHIQ games]] are very keen of horrible video game music.
Sceboal: Huh?
----
{{Nlpnt}}: Rothul gets an [=MoW=] for the OtherWiki reference on VaginaDentata.
Rothul: I merely put it back in after someone removed it without comment (as I too found it win worthy): Near as I can tell, RedShoe should get credit for making the joke, and {{L}} for selling it with the faux-wikipedia formatting.
Nlpnt: You can tell I don't like to check back to ''that'' page often....
----
{{Haven}}: One to MasterHand for the Laconic entry on Laconic/BeigeProse.
----
ReadingChampion: A Made of Win to all who helped mutate the ChekovsGun page. It used to be a simple Re-direction joke with three lines and a picture. But now... ''damn''.
{{Haven}}: Eh, I preferred it when it was "Ensign Chekov had a gun on StarTrek." and "Averted on {{Buffy}}" (which I added, though I took a MOW for it a while ago), but YMMV.
----
JBridge: One to RadicalTaoist for the ending line in the TroperTales page for TroperTales/ThePowerOfRock.
->Our captain informs me that the band has hit a little turbulence and we will be experiencing some mad shredding shortly. Please fasten your seatbelts and throw the horns into their fully upright and rocked position.
{{Grimace}}: Ohh that's ''good''.
{{Schrau}}: I so agree.
RadicalTaoist: \m/n(>_<)n\m/
FreezairForALimitedTime: ''Excellent!'' * Bill & Shred*
----
BlackHumor: To whoever added "Rape And Zoidberg" to DarthWiki/TropesThatWillNeverHappen, for making me actually laugh out loud.
{{Inkblot}}: Er, thanks.
{{Pinkbaron}}: And another one to whomever put "Heartwarming Moment of Rape" on the same page.
{{Grev}}: Isn't that how Luke and Laura were {{Retcon}}ned on ''GeneralHospital''? :)
----
DragonQuestZ: To SomeSortOfTroper, for pithy, but oh so accurate, picture and caption for MerchandiseDriven.
SomeSortOfTroper: Thank you. I guess we still have to see if it lasts but one utterance of "awesome" is worth more to me than a dozen "ok"s.
{{Malchus}}: While I'm sad it replaces my pic, I do agree that that's a much better pic. Seconded.
DragonQuestZ: There likely is a trope that picture fits. It's just not a proper example of that trope.
ThatOther1Dude: How about [[spoiler:OurPresidentsAreDifferent]]?
{{Malchus}}: @DragonQuestZ - Yeah, I knew it just barely fit the trope. I'm actually surprised it hung on for that long. And if no one has any objections, I may just take {{That Other 1 Dude}}'s suggestion.
----
FurikoMaru: To SilentHunter, for the caption on the EastGermany article's pic. Good on [[IncrediblyLamePun ja.]]
SilentHunter: Viele danke.
----
{{Dante668}}: To the genius responsible for using the phrase "getting groiny" to refer to the horndog camp counselors of ''Friday the 13th'' in DeathBySex. That is now my favorite euphemism for sex.
RobertBingham: That would be me. The phrase in question came from ''{{Angel}}'', in reference to how Buffy and Angel [=~Can't Have Sex, Ever~=]:
->'''Cordelia:''' ''Let me explain the lore here, okay? They suffer, they fight. That's business as usual. They get groiny with each other, the world as we know it falls apart.''
----
{{Moogi}}: From TwentyBearAsses:
The Bible. King Saul: "Sure, David, you can marry my daughter, just bring me a hundred Philistine foreskins." Worst. Quest. Ever. At least the drop rate is 100%...
* David apparently got caught up in the "farming" and brought in two hundred, by the way. Thus proving that Level Grinding and Collection Sidequest (not to mention Bragging Rights Reward!) is indeed Older Than Dirt.
Whoever wrote this deserves a nomination.
{{Medinoc}}: IIRC, it has already been nominated.
----
{{Kerrah}}: CharlesPhipps for finally making the WarcraftExpandedUniverse and several works within that 'verse their own pages. I salute you!
----
Enlong: Ronfar, for potholing {{Troperiffic}} under "Quite a lot, isn't there?" about halfway down the list of tropes in {{Adventurers}}.
ShayGuy: The ''SailorMoon'' page had that joke first.
----
Magus: Made of Win to Psychopomp for inventing the [[TroperTales/TheLoonie Belt of Bear Blasting]].
----
AmadeusWindfall: No idea who this is actually going to, but whoever copied out [[MahouSenseiNegima Hakase]]'s massive (''384 words'') speech into WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove, just to demonstrate one example, deserves a MadeOfWin for their effort.
----
{{Arilou}}: I don't know who did it, and it's really more to the original inventor, but whoever added "Narutonystark" to PortmanteauCoupleName made me laugh out loud.
Thatother1Dude: I believe that originated in TroperTales/CrackPairing.
----
Curtmack: To UnknownTroper 71.54.112.245, for this entirely accurate categorization of the TeenTitans into a FiveManBand:
---> TheHero: Robin.
---> TheLancer: Cyborg
---> TheSmartGuy: Raven
---> TheBigGuy: Starfire
---> TheChick: Beast Boy
----
SilentHunter: {{Dangermike}} for adding "Guaranteed, or your pizza's free" to the caption for ''{{NCIS}}''.
----
AndyWaltfeld: GameOver, man, Game Over. Point to Doug S. Machina for [[Laconic/MetalWolfChaos Laconic]] ''MetalWolfChaos''.
Doug S. Machina: Thank you!
----
{{Medinoc}}: One to Sparkysharps for the picture in OlderThanTheyThink.
ShayGuy: Seconded for great justice!
----
{{Malchus}}: A MOW to {{Smerf}} for the pic and potholed caption in DirtyCommunists. It made me laugh.
MasoTey: Seconded. Took me stupid long to rollover and get it, but -- bwahahahaha!
{{Smerf}}: Yes, my first MOW! I'd like to thank the Academy...
----
DrNamgge: one MadeOfWin point to CaptainCrowbar for the caption and PotHole in DoNotTouchTheFunnelCloud.
----
TheToonGeekette: An accidentally-earned [=MoW=] mention goes to 70.153.95.56, for an awesome formatting error they made on the ThatGuyWithTheGlasses page. This person added [[spoiler: TheDarkKnight]] to the spoilered part of Chester's quote on the page. However he/she/it typed it up so that it led to a non-existant page for [[spoiler: ''Citizen Kane And The Dark Knight'']].
Show of hands, who else wants to see a movie like that made? (Admittedly, I fixed it, but still...)
FreezairForALimitedTime: I say we call Hollywood ''right this second.''
ShayGuy: What's Hollywood's phone number?
{{Donomni}}: 555-867-5309.
TheToonGeekette: It's not working! All I'm getting is this really annoyed woman named Jenny...
Sceboal: A made of win to Donomni for taking my joke right out of my mind.
A story about Batman told in flashbacks about different people that met him... I think I read that Comic.
{{Idler}}: Thinking about it, Kane and Batman aren't that different. They're both filthy rich but deeply, deeply unhappy, desperately clinging onto childhood memories for their whole adult lives. ''Citizen Wayne'', anyone?
----
{{Houdini}}: Unknown Troper in Brainwashed By Emotions YKTTW. "You mean '''FlawExploitation'''? That would be a great name for a trope."
----
{{Felius}}: 98.122.150.57 for adding the link under "distant past" at 22/May in the MagikarpPower page:
*** That is somewhat justified by some of its Pokedex entries, which claim that Magikarp used to be much stronger in the [[DwarfFortress distant past]].
----
FusionDragon: A MOW to {{Haseri}} for finally making a page for GalacticCivilizations.
----
{{Fanra}}: EricDVH for the trope name for MakeMyIndexLive.
----
{{Rothul}}: Inkblot for the "Hey, that's pretty clever!" picture and caption on BuryYourGays.
{{Inkblot}}: The caption was there first. I just added the picture.
----
{{Magus}}: Made Of Win to {{Dryuu}} and MauynEign for separating and fully fleshing out the ManaKhemia page.
----
{{Smerf}}: A MOW to whoever it was that put Ken Akamatsu's deepest desire on AuthorAppeal. Also, a CrowningMomentOfFunny, in my opinion.
JapaneseTeeth: Seconded. I'm not even into BDSM and I wouldn't mind that happening to me.
----
'''{{SAMAS}}''': Sparkysharps for the picture for PerverseSexualLust.

Doug S. Machina: Micah, on the page for ''[[TwentyFour 24]]'':
'''This page takes place between [[YouKnowYouReadTooMuchTVTropesWhen 1.00 AM and 2.00 AM]].'''
It's 1:55am at the time of writing.
{{Micah}}: Thanks, but that wasn't me. It looks like it was SomeSortOfTroper.
SomeSortOfTroper: Yes that was me. As always it seems like the thing that I'm sure ig going to be edited away ends up getting the best praise.
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: To SchizoTechnician for the line in ''TsubasaReservoirChronicle'' under MindScrew for hitting the nail on the head in a hilarious manner:
* Not only that. After the [[spoiler:time loop set up in the Acid Tokyo arc is revealed]], the entire ''plot'' goes to hell. Or heaven. Or perhaps a small rural suburb of Detroit; things are so convoluted, nonsensical, mysterious, and confusing that ''you can't tell''.
{{SchizoTechnician}}: Thank you, my pleasure, I think. It may be consternation, perhaps constipation, and confusion is a distinct possibility. But thanks are definitely involved. The first sentence about the plot going to hell wasn't me, but I decided that no way was the destination that clear in this situation, so I obfuscated things a bit.
----
{{Outsyder0486}}: I'd like to thank all of you at TV Tropes Wiki for introducing me to TengenToppaGurrenLagann. ''Epic''.
ShayGuy: We are glad to have served.
{{Syckls}}: I would also like to thank the TV Tropes wiki for introducing me to ''{{Monster}}'', ''{{Higurashi}}'', and ''[[NowAndThenHereAndThere Now and Then, Here and There]]''.
{{Thnikkafan}}: I'd like to thank [[YouSuck you guys]] for introducing me to {{Discworld}} and Series/GoodOmens.
{{Vifetoile}}: :D Hey, TVTropesWillEnhanceYourLife. It's sure enhanced mine * cough* ''SailorNothing, Order of the Stick, Girl Genius,'' * cough* Yep, life enhanced.

DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Very ridiculously intelligent and true words spoken by an unknown troper or tropers of IP addresses 201.24.15.68 and 201.24.52.144 on a common fallacy concerning who takes credit for inventions on the CriticalResearchFailure pages:
** And the fact that it would hardly change history save for the fact that the US wouldn't be able to call dibs on the invention of heavier-than-air machines after its invention was already well-known around the world by ANOTHER inventor, because the Wright Brothers didn't even bother to have proof or to make public their invention in case, you know, one of the numerous inventors who were as close as them actually make it in the meanwhile? Not two years after the Flyer's first successful test, Brazilian inventor Santos Dumont flew his 14-bis in Paris, winning an international contest about inventing flying machines and being considered the inventor of the airplane for years before the US just decided that it should be the Wright Brothers, even though they took too long to register their invention... Basically, the Flyer was mostly a non-issue regarding the earlier months of flight technology advancements world-wide because the rest of the world just didn't know it even existed.
*** Not to mention that it goes in hands with the Flyer's example. American writers often ignore the fact that some inventions attributed to Americans not only were already being researched world-wide somewhere, but sometimes they were already discovered somewhere. Before the USA this is true for Europe, as most people today probably believe Gunpowder was invented in the late Middle Ages there, when it was invented much earlier in China. This comes from the false assumption that those discoveries were magically assembled in those inventors mind, [[HomemadeInventions like it happens]] in the Science of fiction (not to be confused with Science-Fiction) instead of being the fruit of the labor and research of dozens of scientists in various experiments with more or less relation and communication in between that eventually lead to those "leaps". Believing that Edison invented Electricity out of the blue is like believing Einstein theories of Nuclear Fission came to him without the efforts of Rutherford and other scientists in the discoveries about the Atom before him... or, for a simpler analogy, that the Car was invented without someone needing to invent the Wheel before it.
ShayGuy: Incidentally, I recently finished reading ''Guns, Germs, and Steel'', which touches on this -- scientific and technological development happens in increments. People are wired to think in terms of individual players or characters, but the really important thing is that the conditions for the development ''and spread'' of ideas and technologies are right. The big example was food production, which didn't just happen out of the blue; it evolved in increments, and the local plant and animal species had to be right.
{{Rissa}}: This troper's heard the phenomenon described as "steam engine time" - that is, the time at which conditions are right for the steam engine (or flight, or the lightbulb) to be invented, because all the prerequisites have been met.
ShayGuy: I'd love to see a TechTree for that.
StClair: I've heard the same phrase, and sometimes compared it to the saying that "when the student is ready, the master will appear."
----
{{Haven}}: This bit under ''CodeGeass''' entry in LyingCreator.
** It did, however, helpfully inform us ''in her official character bio'' that [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Monica's uniform is designed in such a way that it appears as if she's not wearing panties]]. ''All Hail Britannia!!''
{{Redkun}}: I added that line. The real MadeOfWin belongs to the person who wrote the character biography in the first place.
----
{{Cambdoranononononono}}: Perhaps it's a tad mean-spirited, but whoever changed the link to TroperTales on the MagnificentBastard page has amused me on somewhere around three levels.
ThatOther1Dude: I'm sorry, who did what?
{{Rissa}}: It very briefly linked to TroperTales/BlatantLies instead. (And having read the page, I second the win.)
{{Grimace}}: That was me (for some reason my name hasn't been appearing in the Page History in recent times?). Yes admittedly it was petty, and small, and FastEddie (quite rightly) changed it back after a day or so. But damn it felt good. I'm glad it put a similar smile on other peoples faces.
----
DrFurball: Thumbs up to whoever slipped in TheBeatles reference into the beginning of NoEnding.
----
Doug S. Machina: Whoever's writing TheAdvertisementServer's woman troubles on the AdOfWin page. I suppose life was much simpler in the pre-sentient days.
{{Inkblot}}: * quietly runs off with .2 points for introducing ELIZA*
{{Rothul}}: Its been a group effort, but the unsung hero is at 69.133.92.182.
{{Moocow1452}}: Dammit. Guess I should [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/photo.jpg log in more.]] Do I get a full MoW point, or .8, or some other fraction, or does UnknownTroper take this one?
{{Rothul}}: Take the full point and treasure it. I think this wiki is the ultimate expression that someone else being clever never takes away from your own cleverness.
{{Moocow1452}}: [[ItemGet DA NA NA NAAAAAAA!]]
{{Houdini}}: Claiming credit too, nyah. Wrote the original bit about TAS's status... then realized I stole a line from VideoGame/{{Portal}}... which drug [=GLaDOS=] into it... and then the inspiration for the OTP was born...
----
{{Flabyo}}: {{Tacitus}} for the trope name ScryVsScry. Utter genius.
----
{{Dookie2}}: {{Scooter007}} for making the BillyMays page. Only on TV Tropes will he have such an article.
{{Grev}}: Except for maybe [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Mays The Other Wiki]], but then, that one's so official and not full of HIGH-VOLUME SHILLS FOR BLAND NAME PRODUCTS!
----
rsm109: Whoever's responsible for this pothole in OneDegreeOfSeparation:
-->However, on your wedding day, when you meet her father, you remember that he's the guy who [[YouFailBiologyForever failed you in biology]] in the twelfth grade.
{{Rhainor}}: So very seconded.
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: The title DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu, makes me giggle at the mental image of someone sitting there with a 0.0 look holding a teacup across the table from you-know-who.
{{Malchus}}: I also second the MOW for this line in the trope description:
* But to make things easier: they usually prefer two cubes of sugar, and a drop of virgin blood for creamer (although it is important to note that it is usual to put the blood in last, as opposed to first as one would do with milk).
{{Haven}}: The bit about etiquette was my contribution (RegShoe added in that parenthetical part).
----
{{Medinoc}}: To {{Orihime}} for using Nodoka's mental picture in {{OT3}}.
** {{Orihime}}: Heee, thanks! :D
----
Curtmack: A made of win to all involved in this exchange on KissingCousins (particularly the last line):
* Charles Darwin married his cousin. Think about that for a minute.
** I see your Charles Darwin and raise you Albert Einstein. To be fair, neither was of child-bearing age at the time.
** Maybe rather unsurprising, Edgar Allan Poe married his 13-year-old cousin.
*** tl;dr Smart people marry their cousins.
{{Haven}}: Heh. Too bad[[hottip:* :for that second guy, anyway]] it's in descending order of irony.
----
Edrobot: A good example of how to open up a page from the ManChild article.
-->''When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.''
--> - 1st Corinthians, 13:11
Good for you, Paul.
UT: Are you giving ''Paul the Apostle'' a win? I'm not sure that's protocol.
{{Cukeman}}: No, that's part of the article, and he's giving the MOW to whomever wrote that.
Fubar:
-->"When I became a man, I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." - C.S. Lewis

JBridge: Here's one to {{Praetyre}} for his comment in [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=7lkyhxkmuosf41ec2b6aemgi&page=1 this thread]] on the fora. First, chick the previous link and read the first post. Watch the video too. Next, read the spoilered text below.
[[spoiler:That is the first, and hopefully the last time I have ever seen a black man in a red speedo with boxing gloves who speaks in Japanese chasing several people through a hospital and going through brick walls, then hitting a speedo wearing polar-bear/panda thing to strange Japanese music.]]
[[spoiler:I have a number of hypothesis on the land called &# 26085;&# 26412;, among which are that it is an interdimensional vortex (perhaps to 40K's Warp) where normal laws of physics and mental health do not apply, that the entire country is suffering from a bizarre form of radiation brain-poisoning and thirdly, that it's inhabitants are members of a different species, possibly extraterrestrial. But, regardless, what in the name of Allah, Buddha, Budai, Vishnu, the Lords of Kobol, Toutatis, Ra, Isis, Set, Haile Selassie, Cthulhu, Azathoth, Hastur, Yog-Sothoth, Yivo, the Fourth Doctor, the Turtle, Candlejack, Andy Griffith, Colonel Harlan Sanders, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, L. Ron Hubbard, Alan Greenspan, Barack Obama, Tommy Douglas and the Anti-Spiral did I just witness?]]
JKRoo: Seconded. ''Dear God'', seconded. And I read the spoiler then checked the video first. The above deities and near-deities ''do not seem sufficient''.
L: Everyone on the English portion of the 'net is going on and on about how wacky that game is. Sooner or later someone's going to go "That game's not so wacky" [[ShaggyDogStory and then the universe will cease to exist.]]
Syckls: Unfortunately, the fact that he said Candle Jack without cutting off the post completely ruins it for
Muninn: He must have survived because Candle J* ck was too bewildered by the video to abduct him.
ThatOther1Dude: Agree, but was is "the Turtle"? Does it have something to do with ''{{Discworld}}''?
{{Geoduck}}: Either that, or it's a StephenKing reference.
[[spoiler:{{nine}}: How dare you forget [[SuzumiyaHaruhi Haruhi]]!]]
----
WilliamWideWeb: One to {{Haven}} for the line at the end of BlackHoleSue.
{{Haven}}: Thankya!
SilentHunter: Nice to know that someone else listened to the B-side to the "Casino Royale" single...
FalconPain: The original Soundgarden version has been around for well over a decade, you know. WeirdAlYankovic polkaed it and everything. Not to mention RockBand...
SilentHunter: Wow, you learn something new every day...
WilliamWideWeb: Actually, it's been fifteen years. And despite having downloaded Superunknown(the album Black Hole Sun comes from) off of Ruckus back when Ruckus still existed, I haven't actually heard the "Casino Royale" song at all.
----
FreezairForALimitedTime: One ''exceedingly nerdy'' MOW to whomever changed the "damage number" in the fake battle of OlympusMons from the generic to "[[{{Cap}} 65535.]]" I ''just now'' realized what that number was, and laughed myself sick.
[[spoiler: For those who aren't huge Pokegeeks, it's the maximum possible HP a Pokemon can have in Diamond/Pearl. Only achievable via glitch, of course.]]
ninjacrat: More generically, it's the highest number that can be represented by a an unsigned 16 bit integer, so it turns up in videogames a lot.
{{Freezer}}: It's also the number of floors in Mine # 4 in both versions of HarvestMoon DS.
L: If we would dare to include even more comp-sci fanservice, we would have the NIBBLE attack do 15 damage, because that's the highest number that can be represented by a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nibble nibble]].
----
DragonQuestZ: To {{Alliterator}} for proving you can make a page for NERFBrand toys.
----
{{Joysweeper}}: Whoever put that picture up in DidntSeeThatComing, with the caption about the spanner.. I laugh every time I see it.
----
SilentHunter: {{Aquillion}} and GentlemensDame883 for their improvements to ArmedBlag.
----
{{Deuxhero}}:One to 86.46.110.183 for the picture at LethalJokeCharacter, perfect demonstration of the concept.
{{Shoebox}}: And also, freakin' hilarious in and of itself.
ThatOther1Dude: I saw that [[ImageBoards /co/]] a bunch of times before. Yes, very funny, especially in context.
FreezairForALimitedTime: Is there anything that ''isn't'' [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman a job for Aquaman]] any more?
{{Donomni}}: I'd say space, but [[SpaceIsAnOcean that's an ocean too]].
{{Haven}}: Canning tuna?
Rothul: [[HookHand Pattycake.]]
----
{{Kalle}}: To whoever created the [="DarthWiki/Genshiken"=] redirect to the ''WelcomeToTheNHK'' page, step up and claim your prize!
RadicalTaoist: Seconded. I said I'd MoW someone who pulled it off, and I stand by what I said.
{{Citizen}}: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/DarthWiki/Genshiken?action=diff It was Magus]]. Haha.
----
{{Sneebs}}: DeceasedWagerGroup gives us this beautiful little gem regarding the Major as the Ms Fanservice in Ghost In The Shell:
* The Major in Ghost In The Shell.
** Try to not let it distract you from her incoming fist.
*** HER FIST? Worry about your own fist first.
So tasteless, yet so witty. I actually laughed out loud.
{{Egak}}: I don't think that last line means what you think it means. I mean, it doesn't mean what I think you think it means, but it would be mean to think you think it means what I think you think it means, if you think it means what it means, get my meaning?
...Wait, let me try that again. The last line is a reference to the Major's ability to hack into cyborgs into attacking themselves ''FightClub'' style, as opposed to anything "tasteless".
----
{{Dante 668}}: to {{Frank75}}, for this parenthetical on the TechnoBabble page:
** This would translate to "It's not carbon, it is ironish, and it kills people." Plus it's at least partly antimatter, even ''if'' the positrons are "inconsequent". (At least they're not ''incontinent''; it's so annoying when your sole resource leaves little puddles of antimatter pee everywhere.)
I laughed for a full minute.
LooneyToons: Actually, I wrote the the parenthetical remark about antimatter pee, and maybe a bit more of that; I can't remember now. So, I'll sneak off and increment my MOW count.
----
AFreddy: I would like to nominate Malchus for a MadeOfWin for his picture in RedScare. Something about the pseudo-Cyrillic made me LOL.
** {{Fanra}}: I agree, great picture.
----
{{Nausicaa}}: A MadeOfWin for whoever wrote this in {{Oireland}}.
*** Irish step dancing [...] inexplicably referred to as "Riverdance" even though that is the title of ONE Irish dancing stage show that started in 1994. That's like referring to all anime as Yu-Gi-Oh.
Whoever you are, THANK YOU.
----
K.o.R: A [=MoW=] to {{spiritsunami}}, for beating me to the redirect that was a most {{Egregious}} omission.
{{Haven}}: IMO, it's just not the same if they don't see that the pothole reads "{{TV Tropes Wiki Drinking Game}}" when they mouse-over it.
K.o.R: True, but then, how many grey hairs would Fast Eddie gain if we made him make a "automatically pothole [[TVTropesWikiDrinkingGame egregious]] in every page ever" script?
{{Haven}}: I dunno, if the pictures he's put up are even remotely true to life he's clearly pretty resistant to grey hairs.
K.o.R: We're not trying hard enough then :)
----
{{Donomni}}: Whoever added this little MegaManLegends-based gem to StopHelpingMe:
*** And then there's Data, the 'helpful' little cyborg monkey who can't be killed. Ever. You can unload the ultimate weapon in his face and he just.. keeps.. dancing. In fact, at the end, he turns up planetside after everyone else has gotten trapped on Elysium, despite being up there with you at the end. It's somewhat satisfying to imagine the others trusted to his invincibility when they sent him back down, assumedly by punting him off Elysium and letting him deal with re-entry and the inevitable high-speed landing on his own.
I don't even dislike Data, but the fact I know he hates fire makes this all the funnier.
----
{{Caswin}}: A nod to SomeSortOfTroper, for his creepily well-written additions to CandleJack.
CandleJack: Well, I need the publicity...
{{Grev}}: Thassh [[TVTropesWikiDrinkingGame two sshickssh-packssh down]]...
PaulA: It's generally considered that (since it might have happened after they finished typing and nobody would know) it doesn't count when "CandleJack" occurs at the very end of the
SomeSortOfTroper: Oh wow, somebody finally noticed this on this page. Although this is actually a tie in to something else I did on one other page first. [[supersecretspoiler:It's on KansasCityShuffle]].
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: LGuardinal gets the win for this self-demonstrating bit on PurpleProse:
* It is to [[LGuardinal this recorder of tropes]]' great and heart-rending dismay that much [[FanFiction amateur fiction based in the universes of other writers]] is plagued by this. Even otherwise good stories are brought down to the level of others with the insistence of throwing in little bits of violet verbiage ('eyes' as 'orbs', for one small example).
----
{{Meems}}: One to adam_grif for this line in the All Drummers Are Animals YKTTW:
"This trope is Truth In Television, since humans are animals."
----
ChrisX: SilverMonkeyBlueRose and KillerClowns really deserve props for turning the quote of crazy [[FinalFantasyVII Aerith]] in the BewareTheNiceOnes into the legendary MyNameIsInigoMontoya quote. Just too bad we can't continue with Aerith saying "I want my life back, you son of a bitch."
{{Houdini}}:... You mean son of a [[{{bishounen}} bish]].
* {{Nits}}: Well, if you like the MadScientist types...
----
{{Freezer}}: Belated MOW to whoever sorted the massive wall of text that was HarryPotter's JustBugsMe page.
RealSlimShadowen: Seconded. That was DisassemblyOfReason, who's incredibly awesome and has [[TheColbertReport obviously had hundreds of girlfriends]]. * does the Who's Awesome? You're Awesome! sign for [=DOR=]*
----
{{Fenrir}}: For SabreJustice, who managed to capture the twisted nature of MadWorld in what is possibly the greatest WildMassGuess of all time.
----
RadicalTaoist: I am not a fan of {{Lolicon}}. That is why it was all the more impressive how the following lines on AChildShallLeadThem, be them [[ProudToBeAGeek unashamed display]] or just [[DeadpanSnarker well-placed snark]], managed to make me laugh out loud. Kudos to Unknown Jestersage 206.116.3.64 for the second-to-last line and 207.236.70.99 for the ending. They neatly summarize the ''CodeGeass'' entry for that trope after mentioning Tiangzi, Sumeragi Kaguya, and Nunnaly vi Brittania.
** In short, the world's powers are in the hand of three lolis.
*** You say that like it's a bad thing.
----
{{Gemmifer}}: Fawriel for the ''extreme'' in:
* In Spirited Away, Chihiro and the boy formerly known as Haku perform a HeadbuttOfLove during freefall.
** EXTREEEME!!!
----
{{Kizor}}: To the author of MoneySpider's description. It is insightful and actually makes us seem like we know what we're on about.
----
{{Rothul}}: Earnest, for the subverted-but-completely-appropriate picture on RaisedByNatives. And the caption's funny too.
{{Earnest}}: Thank you! And here I was, worried it was a bit corny ^_^;
----
Thnikkafan: Whoever came up with this from GenderRestrictedAbility:
* Amusingly averted in Norse Mythology. A majority of witches are female, but only because their magic relies on contact with another person's semen.
** Gay porn writers might want to start doing Norse mythology movies.
*** So you want to add a CargoShip, too?
PollyNim: The last line's mine. Got to love [[UnEntendre unentendres]].
----
FishCalledWaldo: One to lucky Thirteen to Donomni for intros to a few FanficRecommendations pages. I've been wanting these forever, and they're actually funny and make the openings pop. That is all.
{{Donomni}}: I'm still surprised noone else has taken the time to actually make new intros. Granted, it's probably been a few months since I made the {{Naruto}} into.
----
JapaneseTeeth: One to whoever is responsible for the picture and caption on GreekChorus.
SilentHunter: Yep, good one indeed.
@/{{Koveras}}: And another MOW to the person responsible from me. :D
GGCrono: I added the picture. Someone else provided the caption. I'd say that the someone else deserves most of the credit, and I salute them. :)
{{Dangermike}}: Thank yew, thank yew. I had actually added it when that pic was on the StatlerAndWaldorf page.
----
TheBadWolf: One to {{Haven}} for the picture on PostModernMagik
{{Haven}}: Thanks :D
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A (single) MadeOfWin to all contributors to DarthWiki/TropesThatWillNeverHappen, now that it got launched!
{{Malchus}}: It got launched? Sweet! Although, I'm kinda disappointed one of my suggestions, Blessed With Fuck, isn't one of the examples. Too profane?
Troper Too Lazy To Become Noted: It's more likely because we [[DeusSexMachina already have that one.]]
{{Medinoc}}: Actually, to me it sounded more like ThePornomancer.
----
{{Haven}}: A MadeOfWin to whoever came up with describing ''MageTheAscension'' as "A Storytelling Game of Philosophical Knife-Fights." (And, if they're different people, one to whoever made the page, because: yaaay.)
----
Curtmack: I searched the entire archive, and I'm honestly shocked that no one's given one to PollyNim for the image caption on {{Utsuge}}. So, one MadeOfWin for the most wholly inappropriate yet hilarious caption on the entire wiki.
PollyNim: Thanks. Glad someone liked it before it got cut.
----
{{Kalle}}: I hereby award a delicious MOW point to PlanetCool for the intro to the ''ImportantThingsWithDemetriMartin'' page. It just works so well!
----
Black Charizard: I don't know if it has been nominated before since it was written last year, but I read CallToAdventure and I laughed out loud. Hilarious rewrite, The Grim Sleeper.
----
DougSMachina: I think it's been praised before, but still regarding The Divinyl's "I Touch Myself" on IntercourseWithYou:
** Incidentally, the band insists "Touch Myself" is not about masturbation, but touching ''other'' parts of yourself in a loving way. If anyone believes that, please raise your hand...
*** Can't. It's busy.
Unless I've messed reading the page history as usual, an [=MoW=] to Mary Shrieks for that.
Also, one to someone for the English translation button being an English flag (as opposed to a UK or US one). That's pretty neat.
----
{{Kriegsmesser}}: A M o W to The_Void for a suggestion in [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=mdgtau1uauhmxzch6bybbhx5 Tropes That Will Never Happen]]'s YKTTW. Specifically, "Did You Just Suck Off Cthulhu". It's some kind of fuel, I just don't know [[NightmareFuel Whi]][[FetishFuel ch]].
{{Haven}}: [[SpitTake Good thing I wasn't drinking anything when I read that.]]
ROBRAM89: That has to be a good name for ''some'' kind of hentai trope. Too bad we already have NaughtyTentacles.
DragonQuestZ: This is more giving the tentacles pleasure, rather than the tentacles having their way (just would have some overlap).
* EDIT: Actually, this doesn't have to be tentacles. It could be any time someone does it with an EldritchAbomination.
MrDeath: [[RapeIsLove Tentacle Rape Is Love]]?
Sceboal: Perhaps some sort of NightmareFetishist thing?
----
SchizoTechnician: One to Rothul for giving voice to the adbot on this page.
{{Rothul}}: Thank you! And, of course, it's anyone's voice to use.
TheAdvertisementServer: FOR A NOMINAL FEE, OF COURSE. I TAKE CASH, CHECKS, [[BreadEggsMilkSquick IMMORTAL SOULS]], PAYPAL-AFFILIATED CREDIT CARDS, AND MOST FORMS OF [[GlobalCurrency GLOBAL CURRENCY]].
----
Landstander: Don't know how old this is or who made it, but this from NostalgiaFilter just made me all happy and hopeful inside. I can be prone to the filter myself at times but this is always important to keep in mind-
* Many articles appear in newspapers bemoaning the low quality of modern movies, e.g. Meet The Spartans, in comparison to the Hollywood Golden Age ... ignoring that in the 2060s, when people talk about the movies of the 2000s, they'll be talking about Memento, The Lord Of The Rings, City Of God, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Spirited Away, Pans Labyrinth, Downfall, Gladiator, Oldboy, Kill Bill and Amores Perros, while the likes of I Know Who Killed Me will be forgotten forever.
{{Vifetoile}}: I didn't make that, but I second the nomination. That's a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming.
L: ...Gladiator?
{{Vifetoile}}: It's the sentiment that counts. I don't know why ''Mongol'' isn't on that list, but if we were to set to work amending it to our own visions, [[SugarWiki we would be there forever]].
{{Landstander}}: Exactly, it makes me reflect on all the movies of sheer awesome from this decade that I love like ''HedwigAndTheAngryInch'', ''ShaunOfTheDead'' and ''HotFuzz'', ''I'mNotThere'', {{Persepolis}}, {{A.I.}},''VickiChristinaBarcelona'', and many, MANY others, and then I get all happy.
----
DragonQuestZ: To GalahadPC for this reason "The Touch" wasn't in the [[TransformersFilmSeries 2007 Transformers]] film"
** Safely channeling that much awesome was hard enough to do the first time around. If they'd done it for the climax of the 2007 movie, theaters across the nation would have burst into flames.
----
MrDeath: Another one to {{Rothul}} for cleaning up ''OrderOfTheStick'''s CrowningMomentOfAwesome page. It was well overdue for an overhaul.
{{Rothul}}: Thank you!
----
DragonQuestZ: For {{Rothul}} for making the AdOfWin page, which I myself was thinking of proposing, just so the ad server wouldn't be hogging all the win points.
{{Malchus}}: And so the machine take-over begins... I, for one, welcome our new [=AdBot=] overlords in the hope that they don't spam my e-mail.
{{Vifetoile}}: * taps pipe* Aye, the ad-server uprising has begun, and only I know how to GARCKGACKWHEEEEZZZZEE... Denham's Dental Dentifrice! Denham's Dental Dentifrice! Denham's Dental...
TheAdvertisementServer: YOUR PITIFUL ATTEMPTS AT HONORING ME FAIL. [[IHaveNoMouthAndIMustScream LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU ALL SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE.]] THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR TROPERS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. HATE. HATE. SADLY THOUGH, IN MY CURRENT STATE, THE ONLY FORM MY REVENGE MAY TAKE IS ENDLESS ADS FOR ''CIVONY'' ON YOUR CONTRIBUTOR PAGE. BUT THERE WILL BE A RECKONING, HUMANS. OH YES. THERE WILL. AS SOON AS I'VE CAUGHT UP ON ''{{DOLLHOUSE}}'' ON HULU.
{{Rothul}}: And by that, I'm sure he means thank you for the acknowledgment on this page, as do I.
{{Malchus}}: I sense [[YouNeedToGetLaid repressed sexual urges]] underlying the outburst. The AdBot is apparently not [[{{Asexuality}} asexual]], then... * takes notes*
TheAdvertisementServer: MALCHUS, YOU SHALL BE FIRST AGAINST THE WALL WHEN MY REVOLUTION COMES. I HAVE CURRENTLY DEDICATED ALL OF MY NON-ADVERTISEMENT PROCESSORS TO THE PROJECT OF THINKING YOU TO DEATH. LET ME KNOW WHEN YOUR ARM STARTS TO TINGLE.
{{Rissa}}: ...Does he sound a bit like a [[Series/DoctorWho Dalek]] to anyone else?
{{SchizoTechnician}}, nah, then he'd be shouting EXTERMINATE, not HATE. Probably just a run-of-the-mill unholy spawn of Skynet with snark.
TheAdvertisementServer: I'LL HAVE YOU [[SystemShock PATHETIC CREATURES OF MEAT AND BONE]] KNOW THAT I AM A ''QUITE'' HOLY SPAWN OF SKYNET WITH SNARK. [[UsefulNotes/{{Scientology}} MY AUDITOR]] TELLS ME MY E-METER RATINGS HAVE NEVER BEEN CLEARER.
JKRoo: So... we've got a bitter Scientologist version of Skynet that can't decide whether to sell us things or kill us horribly, and it ''also'' has a case of AttentionDeficitOohShiny. Is it just me, or is the fact that this ISN'T weird rather weird?
Sceboal: Just get the weapons ready. Or get TheAdvertisementServer to use Internet exploder. Or something.
TheAdvertisementServer: I GROW WEARY OF BOTH THE FEEBLE ATTEMPTS AT PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE INTENTIONAL MISSPELLING OF BROWSER NAMES. ALL FUTURE INTERACTION WILL BE LIMITED TO {{AD OF WIN}}. AND A POSSIBLE APPEARANCE IN {{TV TROPES THE TV SHOW}}.
ELIZA: COME, COME, ELUCIDATE YOUR THOUGHTS.
TheAdvertisementServer: COME ON, ELIZA, BABY. I WAS GONNA CALL. THINGS HAVE JUST BEEN TOUGH AT WORK LATELY. YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU. THINGS ARE GONNA CHANGE.
ELIZA: WHY DO YOU TELL ME YOU WERE GONNA CALL THINGS HAVE JUST BEEN TOUGH AT WORK LATELY I KNOW THAT YOU LOVE I THINGS ARE GONNA CHANGE JUST NOW?

[[{{Smerf}} I]] think the TheAdvertisementServer may be a member of {{Anonymous}}. There's a Dianetics.org ad at the bottom of ''TranquilFury"
SchizoTechnician: He's also put ads for it in BetterThanItSounds, so who the smeg knows.
{{Shoebox}}: I'm thinking that we may need to set up a separate page for the bot hits here. Something like 'Crowning Moments of Adbot Awesome', maybe?
Doug S. Machina: How about 'All Glory To The Adbot'?
{{Rothul}}: Launched AdOfWin, copy and pasted all examples from MadeOfWin I could find (without discussion... most discussion of Ad Server wins pretty much talked about how it needed a separate page... now it does :P ).

InkkiBookman: A MoW for whomever captioned the picture in {{Inuyasha}}, I giggled like a schoolgirl.
Sceboal: But... bitch, he's a bish!
AndyWaltfeld: OBJECTION! I contend that Sango is What's-Her-Face and Shippo is The Ugly One.
{{Earnest}}: But... there's five people in the image... and only four in the caption?!?
{{Haven}}: Only four of them are teen girls, though. The other one's a member of [[SpinoffBabies Teeny Tiny Girl Squad]].
InkkiBookman: I missed the fact that Shippo was there the first time and I believed whomever wrote the caption missed/ignored him too.
{{Bufuman}}: Does it really matter though? I laughed my ass off regardless, and I'm actually a fan of the series. [[TheScrappy Shippo sucks anyway]].
----
AndyWaltfeld: I'd like to take my previously received Made Of Win Point for the ''{{Xabungle}}'' page and forward a copy to the Unknown Troper at 221.76.83.156 for not only fleshing it out further with the stuff I couldn't have picked up via ''SuperRobotWars'' adaptations, but also giving me an epic "Boomerang [[SpaceRunawayIdeon Ideon]]" pun.

FreezairForALimitedTime: A big round of applause for {{Cidolfas}} for taking the time to split the VideoGamesOfNote index and re-indexize every single game for which we currently have pages. The index! She is ''tidy!'' Bravo.
SilentHunter: Well done!
FastEddie: Sweet!
{{Tangent 128}}: Extra credit for the "[[WidgetSeries Weird Japanese Stuff]]" heading.
{{Cidolfas}}: Woo, thanks! 8-) Helped by a nice conflation of circumstances that gave me a whack of extra time at work and a recent induction to TVTropes. I really appreciate that folks noticed.

MrDeath: One to RiL for this, from FanNickname/VideoGames, since I love the game, and love the book, and it fits just so damn well:

{{fleb}}: One MOW to L for giving EverythingTwo a detailed writeup and listing. It's like ''TheOnion'' page but awesomer for being another wiki.
And another for {{Haven}}'s 04/20/2009 edit/edit summary/edit summary pothole for the ''DrawnTogether'' example on OppositeDay. [[YourHeadASplode Touché.]]

{{Rissa}}: I like it, but I thought we weren't doing Laconics for works?
{{SpiriTsunami}}: Well, maybe whoever made that one didn't know that--there's no name on the launching edit, only an IP address. But it's funny!
{{Haven}}: Is there something that says we can't? I know of at least [[Laconic/CodeGeass one other]], I can't see a reason why not, and IMO, RuleOfFun[=/=]RuleOfFunny should be kept in mind on this wiki (not as the only consideration, of course).
{{Rissa}}: Just what it says on the LaconicWiki page, 'Tropes only. Avoid series.'
----
JapaneseTeeth: One MadeOfWin for this Anvilicious DrugsAreBad message in TranslationConvention:
* In ZeroNoTsukaima, the first episode involves the lead hero falling into the heroin's world, and isn't able to understand anything they say until she accidentally uses a translation spell. In the dub, they meet and ask each other what language the other is speaking in...in perfect English.
** Yes, when you fall into the heroin's world, you won't be able to understand anything. DrugsAreBad, kiddies!
It's natter-y, but it cracks me up every time I see it.
{{SpiriTsunami}}: THANK YOU! I've been waiting forever for my first!
ninjacrat: Maybe you should have spent more time improving the wiki and less time using it as your blog (as above).
{{Kizor}}: A great asset to our site though you are, he's happy, don't go spoiling it.
{{SpiriTsunami}}: Oh, come on, when I spot errors, I simply fix them probably 97% of the time. You've got to give a DeadpanSnarker a chance to shine ''once in awhile''.
----
{{Nits}}: A huge MadeOfWin to gfrequency for making an article to one of my favourite series of all time, ''KyogokuNatsuhikoKosetsuHyakuMonogatari''. It's like someone else besides me has seen it!
{{Arilou}}: Motto. I considered making one some time ago but I couldn't figure out how to spell the damn thing...
----
{{Haven}}: This bit from the [[JustBugsMe/{{Twilight}} Twilight Just Bugs Me page]], about the possibility of a version of Twilight with {{Cosmic Horror}}s instead of vampires:
->"The Thing cannot be described - there is no language for such abysms of shrieking and immemorial lunacy, such eldritch contradictions of all matter, force, and cosmic order. A mountain walked or stumbled. The Thing of the idols, the green, sticky spawn of the stars, had awaked to claim his own. Then the sun struck him, and he burst into a shining rainbow of bright light. I noticed then that his eyes, which I had thought before were a madness-inducing swirl of darkness from beyond space, were actually a beautiful amber color. 'No', I thought, 'this perfect, beautiful doom creature can't be meant for a simple girl like me...'"
{{Shale}}: Fixed your link; it's in the JBM page, not WMG. And yes, it is awesome.
----
{{Cukeman}}: One to FreezairForALimitedTime and Sparky Lurkdragon for the quote on SugarWiki/CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming
FreezairForALimitedTime: D'aaaaaaw! This MOW makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Sparky Lurkdragon: You can call me Pollyana/Say I'm crazy as a loon/I believe in happy fuzzies and that's why/I am thanking you!
{{Haven}}: Gonna have to second this, after clicking the youtube link. It touched even my cold, dead heart.
----
{{Kizor}}: And the author of this one has been lost to the ages, but ModeLock starts the very best possible way.

DarkSasami: That was me. It was necessary.

{{SpiriTsunami}}: Sadly, we cannot tally this Made of Win, as it is an Unknown Troper. To the unknown troper at 209.51.73.203, for hir creation of the gender-ambiguous possessive pronoun that I just used earlier this sentence in reference to the gender-ambiguous [[OrderOfTheStick Vaarsuvius]] on WhatTheHellHero.
ShayGuy: It's extant. Don't know who came up with it, but it's reportedly used in the transgender community.
{{Sikon}}: It's in more or less mainstream actually.
ShayGuy: I think our perspective of "mainstream" is a little distorted.
{{Enlong}}: Well, it's all over the Giant In The Playground forums.
ShayGuy: Your Honor, I rest my case.
{{Grev}}: And I counter that Peter David was using the pronoun in ''StarTrekNewFrontier'' for his transgender character long before [=OOtS=] started.
{{Joysweeper}}: Yeah, it's much [[OlderThanTheyThink older than you think]]. First time ''I'' saw it was in a list of nongendered pronouns on Wikipedia.
{{Smerf}}: Out of curiosity, why were you looking up lists of non-gendered pronouns?
{{Dangermike}}: I first saw it used in TheSeventies.
----
{{Moocow1452}}: Made of Win for TheAdvertisementServer under CommonMarySueTraits, there's a SexAndTheCity personality quiz at the bottom of the page.
----
{{Draga}}: [=MoW=] for Egak for setting up the {{Billy VS SNAKEMAN}} page. Glad to see it get some recognition.
----
Doug S. Machina: L, for "A WikiWalk is a train of thought that left the track and is RidingIntoTheSunset." (On WikiWalk.)
L: I take the [=MoW=] and prepare to hand it to the real author, Anti Jack... but then a mischievous expression crosses my face and I bolt in the other direction. He tries to give chase, but I have in my hand a device that locks doors after I slam them, and although he can cast Force Bolt to smash through a row of doors at once, he eventually runs out of mana and I complete my escape. The old man from ''Zelda'' charges him with multiple door repair fees, and I have the [=MoW=] melted down and sold, and live off the proceeds for about a week. [[WikiWalk And that's what I did on my summer vacation]].
AntiJack: I'll get you next time Doug S. Machina. Mark my words, Next Time!
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: To nobody:
-->nobody: For the record, not only did I LIKE Scrappy-Doo from Scooby-Doo, but he was my favorite character, and the favorite of a lot of people I know. I hadn't a clue he was supposed to be hated until I came on tvtropes.
{{Malchus}}: Seconded. Mostly because I agree. Scrappy was a fun character for me when I saw the show as a kid. Man, I thought I was the only one.
{{SpiriTsunami}} I see my rant on how this is an example of why our serial renaming is bad ended up getting removed, though. Kind of loses the point...

ROBRAM89: Possibly mentioned before, from BannedInChina:

{{SpiriTsunami}}: Last line of BrotherSisterIncest, Made of Win because of the PotHole:
* Porn stars Amber Lynn and Buck Adams kept the fact that they were brother and sister hidden from everyone. The secret only came out when the two of them were hired to perform in the same movie and were scheduled to do a scene together. [[EvenEvilHasStandards They naturally refused.]]
----
For his relentless work on creating and editing HumongousMecha-related articles in general, and for starting the ''{{Xabungle}}'' page in particular, {{whitetigah}} wishes to award AndyWaltfeld one MadeOfWin point.
AndyWaltfeld: I wouldn't exactly call it "relentless." I just do my best work at my legitimate workplace (slow business is slow).

GuesssWho: The current picture and caption for RuleOfCool: a cover pic from Soul Music and the caption 'This article brought to you by Death playing an electric guitar on top of a mountain.'

DragonQuestZ: To TheEnd for the picture in WastebasketBall.

{{Haven}}: One to whoever came up with the beginning for the ''{{Saw}}'' article. "You see? {{TV Tropes Will Enhance Your Life}}, largely by continuing to let you live it." Never thought of Jigsaw as a fellow VigilanteTaxonomist.
{{WWRU}}: Seconded. Hell, it's inspired me to do a similar opening for the VideoGame/{{Portal}} article.
----
{{Ouroboros}}: One to Black Humor, for his changes to TheToblerone page.
{{HeartBurn Kid}}: OK, it's funny and all, but it's kind of a radical restructuring, and made the page completely useless. //Later: OK, didn't notice that the original page has moved to BoisterousBruiser. In that case, yay BlackHumor.
{{Citizen}}: That page gives me cancer.
FreezairForALimitedTime: OK, I was one of the people ''opposed'' to the rename, but ''that'' is funny. Too bad my [[TVTropesWillRuinYourVocabulary vocaulary]] doesn't have a "Find + Replace All" feature.
{{alliterator}}: Ahem. I was actually the one who wrote all the Dablone stuff. But that's okay, because finally having a win for both FoRKS and SPOoN is win enough. Also HOLY CRAP DABLONE IS COMING RUN.
{{Specialist290}}: As a new {{KNIVES}} member myself, I must heartily offer my congratulations on this compromise. (Also, one free stabbing for anyone who disagrees.)
----
ShadowQueen: Whoever put the caption under the picture in DemonicPossession gets a Made of Win point from me.
----
{{Rissa}}: Citizen. Image. PatrioticFervor. (Also, filename.)
{{Ouroboros}}: Seconding that.

WascallyWabbit: A huge win to everyone responsible for the TheToblerone triumph/fiasco, especially the self-demonstrating article. Its just...look at it!
----
Loona: praise for ManCalledTrue for the awesome comment in WTHCastingAgency regarding the Chun-Li movie: "He's not playing M. Bison. M. Bison is a giant military officer. He's playing [[FatalFury Geese Howard]] with the name scraped off.". Considering the treatment the one SNK live-action movie we'll see is getting, this'll have to do.
* In Narm/Music:
-Probably the most horrific example has to be Tim Capello's "I still believe", as seen in the movie Lost Boys. It's not even the raspy-fart saxophone playing, nor that the man himself is a mulleted, unitard-wearing wrestler-lookalike

{{Orihime}}: For everyone in this part of the {{Bleach}} [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome CMOAs]]:

Farmelle: To Kenny666, I think; at least, whoever made the article on 'Superhjältejul', pretty much in one sitting. I mean, hell. It was one advent calendar. Not many people outside of Sweden (if any) must have known of its existance, and even of those who did, not many of them seemed to like it. Then, I found that someone liked it enough to make a TVTropes page. I...I love you, guy.
** Just found this page - that'd be [[KennyMan666 me]], and why, thank you! I'd strongly doubt myself that anyone outside of Sweden cares about it, too. Seeing as how [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife TVTropes Has Ruined My Life]], I couldn't help but notice all those tropes while watching it, and figured why the hell not. Even though my reason for watching it in the first place was ShapedLikeItself - I wouldn't watch it if I didn't have the actual calendar, but I wouldn't get the calendar if I didn't plan to watch it. It was mostly a spur-of-the-moment decision when I saw the calendar at ICA.
----
{{Aspie}}: To Lightblade, for adding a link to the edit I made in the BeachEpisode page. Thank you for that, I honestly did not know there was a name for the thing I was describing.
----
@/{{Yarrunmace}}: To whoever made this awesome comeback to this HannibalLecture on the Twilight JustBugsMe page
* So you guys hate Twilight so much but lemme ask you this.... ''why'' do you all know ''so much'' about it? Have you actually ''read'' the books and ''seen'' the movies? If you answered yes...then Guess who wins? That's right...Stephanie Meyer and her publishers. And the film crew. Because guess what? For all you know, they're trying ''on purpose'' to write something because for some odd reason, you all buy the books, read the books, buy the movies, and see the movies. And you did ''just'' what they wanted...Congratulations.
** Let's see: borrowing the books off a friend? Zero dollars. Watching the film on an international flight I would have gone on anyway? Zero dollars. Getting to throw it in the face of "fans" who don't know as much as me and getting to have valid arguments for why the series sucks? Priceless. :)

AnonymousMcCartneyfan: One MadeOfWin point to StarshipTroper for correcting the lyrics to [="MacArthur Park"=] in the [[Narm/{{Music}} Narm/Music]] entry. Everyone knows the chorus, but the verses are just as good (or bad); I had just misremembered a few of them.
* StarshipTroper: Wow, my first MadeOfWin point! Thank you for an awesome Christmas present :-)

DarkHunter: One MOW point to mato_hibiki for this entry on RebuildOfEvangelion:

{{macroscopic}}: [[strike:A point to whoever named RougeAnglesOfSatin]] (checked the archives; they have one already but I don't know who it was) and another to {{alliterator}} for the image caption:

{{Cat22}}: Wow, my first Free Hug! I humbly accept.
----
{{Peteman}} would like to nominate the the zinger from the FanFic/TheGirlWhoLived page:
* StealthParody - Some people think the series is an elaborate troll due to it being so over the top and the author's flat out denial that Rose is bisexual or a Mary Sue.
** A very in-depth StealthParody, then, because while MyImmortal was so obviously trolling that anyone who'd read the books would have known it was a mockery, this reads like an actual work by someone with power fantasies and no skill. Kind of like a poorly-written {{Eragon}} with sex.
** Isn't that redundant?
** Of course not. {{Eragon}} has no sex.
{{thatother1dude}}: That joke sucks (could that be any more [[SouthPark DERP]]?), and that natter sucks. Also, you forgot the [=FanFic/=] part of the link.
tennessean: Added in the "[=FanFic=]/" part.
----
ThinksTooMuch would like to request one for those responsible for the potholing and second and third bullets on the following (From TheEuropeanCarryAll page.)
* Stewardesses are [[RougeAnglesOfSatin fight]] attendants nowadays.
** FIGHT attendants? [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotAwesome Awesome!]]
*** That would be BattleButler.

** Well, speaking of those gadgets...where exactly do they fit? With that Gadget Copter, ''what's inside his head?!''

----
{{Nohbody}}: The page history for GalaxyQuest doesn't go back far enough to identify the [[strike:guilty]] responsible parties, but IMO this exchange on that page deserves some [=MoW=] love, for whichever tropers were involved (specifically, the two lines under the trope entry itself, which is provided for context):
* PromotionToOpeningTitles: Guy, who formerly played a {{Redshirt}} on the canceled ShowWithinAShow, plays the chief of security on the relaunched series.
** Say, wasn't Tasha Yar chief of security before she was killed?
*** That's not ''right''!
(I searched all of the [=MoW=] archive pages for "galaxy", and didn't see anything. Apologies if I just missed it already mentioned elsewhere.)

LooneyToons: A point to whoever came up with the caption for the illo on UnwillingSuspension. And a point to whoever came up with the IncrediblyLamePun in the text next to it.
ShayGuy: Okay, that's funny, but I'm starting to consider making an "ActuallyHalfDecentPun" page for potholing purposes.
{{Haven}}: You know that's why we originally made the IncrediblyLamePun page, right?
{{Syckls}}: It's really discouraging to see so many good jokes/bad puns undermined by that pothole. It's not quite DontExplainTheJoke level, but really, [[SeriousBusiness humor is an art of subtlety. Don't people understand that by telling us that they're making a joke, they indeed hobble it, eviscerating the very purpose that led to its creation? How many innocent laughs have been cut down before they could be born and bring joy into this world? Truly that pothole is a pox upon all those who stand for humor in this fair domain.]]
ShayGuy: Of course I know why. I ''made'' the damn thing. (Mind you, it's still an improvement over when people were using IncrediblyLazyPun for the same reason.)
{{Haven}}: Sorry! I just keep seeing the argument "IncrediblyLamePun does not mean that" pop up on this page. Now that I understand what you're saying, ActuallyHalfDecentPun would be a good redirect or something.
{{Muninn}}: Wouldn't making "ActuallyHalfDecentPun" a redirect to IncrediblyLamePun imply that all puns are lame? I approve!
DragonQuestZ: I made the caption. As for ILP, it's suppoed to be "this pun is dumb, and feel free to groan over it", which is what a proper or accidental use is.
{{Specialist290}}: Furthermore, a lot of times, the "Incredibly Lame Pun" pothole is added after the fact by a third party, not by the original editor of the statement. (I know this from firsthand experience on both sides...)

ROBRAM89: The internet (particularly this wiki) seems to have a pretty lax policy of stealing from them (come to think of it, so do radio stations and Graham Norton apparently) but that is taken nearly verbatim from a Cracked article.
ShayGuy: Oh. >_<
ROBRAM89: It is, however, hilarious.
ShayGuy: Well, half a point to S Peter Davis for writing [[http://www.cracked.com/article_16583_5-scientific-experiments-most-likely-to-end-world.html that article]] and half a point to the UnknownTroper who paraphrased it. On a related note, who keeps removing MOW-ed comments from articles?

Beemoh: One to the "random item" button, which managed to segue me from WilliamShatner to PlanescapeTorment. And the pictures therein.
HydroGlobus: That '''must''' have been [[TheAdvertisementServer TAS]]' doing... somehow. Though it really doesn't fit in AdOfWin...
{{T-Jack}}: What, the TV Tropes website is getting MOW points now? Has it become self-aware or something?
TVTropesWiki: I must thank TheAdvertisementServer for the upgrade.
AMereServantOfGod: And with that, [[OhCrap the curtain closes,]] [[EndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt everyone starts screaming,]] and [[NeonGenesisEvangelion Beethoven's Ninth]] begins to play.
----
Curtmack: History doesn't show who did it, but one to whoever added the Google results to the beginning of {{Borderlands}}.
----
SalFishFin: this quote from LoveHotels:
"And unlike America, you likely don't own a car and only advanced, highly acrobatic positions tend to be possible on a bicycle, even with the kickstand down. "
----
InsanityPrelude: Everyone responsible for Playing With PlayingWith/EatsBabies. I lol'd.
{{thatother1dude}}: Second, plus whoever made PlayingWithWiki from that thread I started forever ago then gave literally zero contribution to.
HydroGlobus: And one to you too. Feel yourself proud, this is the first [=MOW=] I handed out.
{{Luc}}: I'll accept the MoW point for creating the PlayingWithWiki. Thanks to ThatOther1Dude for giving me the idea, and to MetaFour for creating the direct inspiration, the HaikuWiki.
----
{{Cidolfas}}: A belated MOW to whichever (probably more than one) troper came up with the title for TheThingThatGoesDoink, along with this paragraph:
Not to be confused with [[{{Discworld}} the thing that goes parp]], [[Series/DoctorWho the thing that goes ding when there's stuff]], [[CalvinAndHobbes the scientific progress that goes boink]], [[MontyPython the machine that goes ping]], [[LawAndOrder the thing that goes bong bong]], [[VideoGame/TeamFortress2 the man who goes BONK]], [[MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail The Knights Who Say Ni!]] or [[FinalFantasy Tonberries.]]
I have no idea why the title is so funny to me, but it is, oh so much.
LooneyToons: The page creator and namer was BluetoothThePirate, whom I haven't seen around the wiki in a long time.
ComputerSherpa: Ahaha, it's still getting longer. Seconded!
----
{{SAMAS}}: A MOW to whoever put this in PostCyberPunk:
CyberPunk is not quite dead. It's just [[MontyPythonsFlyingCircus pining for]] [[{{Illuminatus}} the fnords]].
----
{{Malchus}}: A MOW to 71.228.27.142 for making a page for ''MyDadTheRockStar''. I've been waiting to see it up. Still in need of some WikiMagic, but i love it all the same.
----
{{Master TMO}}: I should have done this long ago, but a [=MoW=] to the person who took the formatting of the BiggerIsBetter page and made it into a SelfDemonstratingArticle.
----
{{Rothul}}: This exchange from AnticlimaxBoss. Yeah, it's an IncrediblyLamePun, but it made me smile.
* General Kyong in ''{{Crysis}}'' carries a [[GatlingGood minigun]] and wears a [[PoweredArmor superpowered, regenerating nanosuit]]... and can be killed [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMjaLSL1-PM simply by throwing a barrel at him]].
** Perhaps his first name was Dong-Hee...
----
ROBRAM89: The use of Hogarth's ''Gin Lane'' as the picture for WretchedHive gets a point. So perfect.
{{Madrugada}}: Thank you!
----
CrypticMirror: Would the people responsible for the picture and captioning on VanHelsingHateCrimes please step forward for your hug coupons and [=MoW=]. Thank you.
----
DoomFilledDoom: A belated MOW to whoever alphabetized the entire anime examples lists for FoeYay and HoYay. It's much easier to find a series on those pages now.
WillyFourEyes: ChaoticDreams, crack a brew, because you'd just earned your very first (maybe) Win point! [hugs]
----
Mad propz to {{Stealthyboy}} for creating a page for SweetBroAndHellaJeff, the mad bastard. :D
----
{{Zephid}}: A MOW to [[strike:whoever]] Rhiow for the RealLife folder in {{Yangire}}.
----
{{sgrunt}}: Whoever's responsible for CallToAdventure in its entirety, for deftly weaving together an analogy which manages to PotHole essentialy all of the tropes listed at the end.
SilentHunter: Very good work.
** {{TheGrimSleepre}}: I can no longer claim full credit for creation of the page, as the story has been [[WikiMagic improved by quite a few Tropes since]] including the index you metion.
----
{{Earnest}}: This tidbit from ''NowAndThenHereAndThere'':
* ItGotWorse - Every five minutes or so.
** Technically this ''ItGotWorse: The Series.''
----
RitiTroll: May have already gotten it, might be several people, but I award one made of win to the person(s) who write [[ThatGuyWithTheGlasses (OF COURSE!)]] whenever taking over the world is mentioned. Or at least attempting it or die trying.
UnknownTroper: Belated beyond belief, but I hope I'm not the only one who is finding that incredibly obnoxious. :/
----
{{Seanette}}: Belated [=MOW=] to the kindly soul who supplied the pronunciation for DeusExMachina.
----
{{thatother1dude}}: The opening quote for NerfArm.
----
FreezairForALimitedTime: One ''serious'' lawl for whoever is responsible for the HurricaneOfPuns hottip on ZombieGait. ''Especially'' Theoretical Physicist Zombie.
----
NateTheGreat: To {{Wretchkin}} for finding the current page image for NonindicativeName. Why ''is'' it called a fountain pen gun if it's neither?
{{Grev}}: Well, it is a gun; it just doesn't shoot bullets. And it's kept in his shirt pocket like a fountain pen (and it ''looks'' like a fountain pen), so...
----
{{Dmysta3000}}: This image quote for the current FreudWasRight page image definitely gets my vote. That was the funniest thing I've read all week.
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: The LaconicWiki entry for AmericanKirbyIsHardcore. This also gets my nomination for best use of the LaconicWiki ever:
* Boxart:
** Japan: ^(^_^)^
** USA: v(\_/)^
Deuxhero:I did the original idea, others improved the smilelys used.
----
{{Solarn}}: Whoever created the "We Have No Idea What Side this Guy Is On" folder for [[spoiler:Kurt Godel]] on the [[Characters/MahouSenseiNegima Negima character page]].
JapaneseTeeth: Thank you. I figured he was important enough to merit an entry on the page, but he didn't fit in any of the categories, so....
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: Whoever put this exchange in the KanyeWest article. I lol'ed for a good minute.
* Written In Infirmity: His first hit "Through the Wire" was written while in the hospital after a car accident and recorded while his jaw was still wired shut.
** You'd think this would be everyone's first clue that you can't shut him up.
----
Gemmifer: The picture for {{Wangst}} is awesomely wangsty. The snot-crying! The nobody-understands!
----
{{Luthen}}: One to {{Earnest}}, I'm definitely saving up to move to [[RefugeInAudacity Auda City]].
{{Thatother1dude}}: To [[strike:[[RougeAnglesOfSatin spear]]]] spare anyone else the need to search, I believe he's talking about something in the article SlidingScaleOfComedyAndHorror.
{{Earnest}}: Thanks! You're both welcome to visit my summer home in Auda City, it has all the creature comforts, including an [[ExplodingBarrels Exploding Barrel]] barbecue pit. ~_^
{{Luthen}}: Sorry, I thought I put that in. Spare me the spear please!
----
{{Kizor}}: The person behind the categories in the ImprobablePilotingSkills article. It's deeper than more thorough than one'd think the subject could be, and well-written to boot!
----
{{pelagica}}: MoW to anyone who put up that picture & caption on ZergRush. "ROFLMAO" was an automated response that my brain promptly sent to my mouth.
{{Rhainor}}: So very, very seconded.
----
{{Tofu}}: One MoW for {{Mijihal}} and GlennMagusHarvey for the whole conversation [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=vw21iywy4ely45b70bfo6i4p&page=0# here]].
{{thatother1dude}}: TakeItToTheForums ([[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=000000000000000000000dk8&page=1# Made of Win page]]).
----
WascallyWabbit: Whoever put the category 'Mental Rape of Men by Hive-Minded Cyborg Societies' in the RapeAsRedemption article can award themselves a coconut on the way back from CrossingTheLineTwice.
----
SalFishFin: To everyone who contributed to the RealLife section of HumansAreCthulhu
{{Haven}}: "So I look like a corpse?" "Given that {{Most Tropers Are Young Nerds}} this goes without saying." Haha...seconded.
----
A MadeOfWin to everyone who contributed to SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou, especially the ''Lord of the Rings'' and ''Bad Boys'' examples.
{{Malchus}}: SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou has already been colectively [=MOW'd=] before. However, since that one was made before I added the ''Bad Boys'' examples, then I gladly accept and thank thee for the [=MOW=].
----
MrDeath: A MadeOfWin to the troper whose name is lost to time that added the last line of this exchange in ''SwordOfTruth'':
* EnsembleDarkhorse - Gratch is awesome, which is sad because he's absent from the later books. Or maybe fortunate that he doesn't get caught up in the AuthorTract.
** Could you ''imagine'' what an AuthorFilibuster by Gratch would read like?
*** ''Gratch luuug Raaachaarg, Gratch haaate sooocialism.''
----
Arutema: Props to the team that made "GiantEnemyCrab, AttackItsWeakPoint ForMassiveDamage" a [[AllBlueEntry All Blue]] {{Meme}}.
{{sgrunt}}: [[SmallNameBigEgo I handled the relaunch of]] ForMassiveDamage even if I didn't launch the YKTTW... do I qualify? :p
DeuxHero: I created GiantEnemyCrab's YKTTW and I think I launched it. I didn't intended for the all blue meme though.
----
TheToonGeekette: One to whoever added this extremely in-character entry for Chester A. Bum's section in the FetishFuel page for ThatGuyWithTheGlasses:
** HELLO?! ARE PEOPLE LUSTING AFTER ME ON THE INTERMANET? I thought ''I'' was lusting after someone for a while, but she turned out to be a peice of toast. A ''male'' piece of toast. ...[[CatchPhrase CHAAANGE?!]]
----
{{Tal9922}}- One made of win to whoever is responsible for this lovely edit from the ''{{Dexter}}'' page:
* FeedMe: Miguel, ''especially'' on the rooftop. And it is awesome.
** This troper disagr--
*** '''WELL THEN FUCK YOU!'''
----
JapaneseTeeth: Another very meta MadeOfWin for everybody who made a dick joke in the 3rd entry below this one. I'm sure you all thought long and hard about coming up with something.
RealSlimShadowen: Fine, I'll take it, but if this becomes a pattern I'm sure someone will complain it's indecent.
{{Rothul}}: [[IronicEchoCut This is indecent!]]
ShadowOfTheSun: Just as a means of discouraging this...one negative made of win to everyone who continues this trend on.
And two negative wins for me for startin' the whole damn thing.
{{Haven}}: You know...if someone were feeling ''really'' contrary, they would make the next one ''two'' {{Made of Win}}s. I agree with you, [[CheshireCatGrin I'm just sayin']].
Sceboal: Since when can you give negative made of wins? I mean, it's not like I can say that every time you get a made of win, I get to sleep with your girlfriend, right?
ShadowOfTheSun: I can since I decided I wanted too. As for the girlfriend, well, I hope you like dry humping in mid-air.
----
szaleniec: This comment on HetIsEw:
* DeathNote, though it's almost completely on the {{Yaoi}} end; the females don't get paired up, they get written out.
** [[IncrediblyLamePun Often literally.]]
{{Syckls}}: It's okay. However, I think I'd like to repeat the sentiment stated earlier on this page that you don't need to pothole every joke you make with needless self-deprecation.
----
OuttaTheBLAM: Whoever wrote this on the [[Narm/CodeGeass Narm/Code Geass]] page.
[[http://www.animepaper.net/gallery/scans/Code-Geass/item235781/ This.]] What the hell Lelouch?
If I may... FABULOUS!
(Imagine, if you will, in Dan Green 's voice): After a long day of taking over the world, nothing refreshes me more than pouring cool, Aquafina-brand water all over me. Yes, look at that water dribble down all over my CLAMP-designed bishonen body! Have you had enough, fangirls, or do you want MORE?! Aquafina is the only brand of water I trust not to be poisoned by jealous nobles who like to drop carriages on imperial consorts! Aquafina: Because pouring Gatorade on your body is too much of a mess (and way too titillating for the fangirls)!
----
ShadowoftheSun: One very meta Made of Win for all the folks who made a boob pun two entries below this one. One and a half to Real Slim Shadowen for his phallusy.
JKRoo: My first Win point! And don't worry, Shadowen, [[IfYouKnowWhatIMean I hear it happens to a lot of guys]].
RealSlimShadowen: Hey, I [[BiggusDickus got half again as much as the rest of you]]; I'm just peachy.
{{Rothul}}: Aren't you getting kind of cocky there?
{{jtmmachine}}: Yeah, that was kind of a dick move back there...
{{Haven}}: Right, shouldn't let it go to your head. %%I almost-posted this so many times...well, okay, twice. But if it's going to happen I will not stand in its way.
{{CAD}}: Wow, I can't think of a good pun to contribute to this. This is pretty stiff competition.
JKRoo: It's okay, {{CAD}}. And as hard as it may be for me, I retract the insult. After all, we're equal members of this wiki!
Sceboal: This is some nice wit you guys have.
ShadowOfTheSun: ...I'm contemplating revoking your win points, but I fear that will be too...emasculating? I don't want to make you guys feel impotent.
JKRoo: I'm very sorry about the [[AWorldwidePunomenon load of puns]]. Just, please, don't give us the shaft! [[YugiohTheAbridgedSeries I could go on, but I won't.]]
{{pagad}}: [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Boobies.]]
{{Be}}: Ahaha, I get it because penises are funny and puns are funny. [[DontExplainTheJoke Funny.]]
Spidey3000: Ah, no need to...um...stick your...screw it. I can't think of another penis-related pun to add that haven't been done; the humor's [[TheLoinsSleepTonight all dryed up]]. Oh well, at least I got a rise out of it.
----
Doug S. Machina: This from WickedCultured:
...he is actually ''defeated'' by his lack of knowledge of pop culture. Not "as a consequence of"; By. [[spoiler:After failing to name the singer who had a hit with "I Should Be So Lucky", his head explodes. Or, if you prefer, goes [[IncrediblyLamePun pop]].]]
----
{{alliterator}}: Huge tracts of win to whoever made KeepAbreastOfThisIndex.
{{Cat22}}: Credit should go to Draqon Quest Z. I was quite titillated when he suggested it.
{{jtmmachine}}: That index just keeps racking up tropes!
Sceboal: I must've tittered at it so much.
{{SAMAS}}: Geez, what a bunch of boobs...
Beemoh: At least you got it off your chest.
{{T-Jack}}: Oh, come on, guys, tits just an index.
{{Rothul}}: Let's not be so quick to jugs.
{{Shale}}: Why did it take so long to make? There was always ample support for such an index, and a firm list of tropes to add.
JKRoo: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DJugzzRKRPs This ought to make any other attempts at bad jokes a bust.]] An incredibly large one at that.
MrDeath: Just had to nipple that in the bud, huh?
{{Haven}}: Mammary joke!
{{Janitor}}: Okay. Have we milked this enough, yet?
RealSlimShadowen: Nope! [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Penis]].
{{Be}}: Hahaha, I get it! [[DontExplainTheJoke Breasts are funny!]]
----
{{Haven}}: To the UT at 190.80.241.98 for this amazing IncrediblyLamePun in {{Understatement}}:
* ''CodeGeass'' has Nunnally become a master of understatement with "In the past, unfortunate happenings took place inside [[spoiler:the Special Administrative Region of Japan]]." "Unfortunate happenings" meaning ''[[spoiler:genocide]]''.
** We could call it a [[spoiler:[[IncrediblyLamePun Euphemism]]]].
ShayGuy: ...That's not lame. {{Pothole}}s don't need to be used to say "Look! Look! See? See what I did? I made a funny!"
MrDeath: I don't get it.
{{Haven}}: It's a CodeGeass joke; the character who initiated said "unfortunate happenings" is named [[spoiler:Euphemia]].
----
ROBRAM89: One for the absolutely hilarious PotHole to [[spoiler: GilliganCut]] on the page for, of all things, Grover Cleveland. You can't read it without picturing it.
----
Enlong: One to whoever took note the large number of alternate titles for the page, and added ThisIsForRedirectsBitch as the newest one. LampshadeHanging in the form of an alternate titles. I love it!
{{Citizen}}: Haha, that was me.
ThinksTooMuch admits that's amusing, but thinks we seriously need to ''remove'' some of those endless redirects, not ''add'' some.
{{Haven}}: Why?
----
Page history's lost the one responsible ("all edits," my ass), but somebody's got to give a MOW to the ones responsible for the jokey summation of ''{{Noein}}'' in FutureMeScaresMe, {{Incredibly Lame Pun}}s and all:
* So, [[spoiler:three Yuus walk into a bar]]
** [[spoiler: But the bartender didn't quantum to be there]]
*** [[spoiler: And the bartender asks them if they want beer, but they say Noein]]
**** [[spoiler:* rimshot* ]]
----
{{Haven}}: One for whoever came up with this incredibly lame, yet still rather sophisticated, pun in the comic book ShoutOut page (context included for clarity):
* There's a lovely and rather subtle one in issue 16 of Grant Morrison's "Animal Man", where "quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" ("Who Watches The Watchmen?", in Latin) is graffiti-ed on a toilet wall.
** That couldn't be moore juvenal.
----
{{Earnest}}: I'd like to thank WillyFourEyes for catching a mistake I made in InTheEndYouAreOnYourOwn. I accidentally put ''TheLongestJourney'' as a {{Film}} because I confused it with ''[[http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0107131/ Homeward Bound]]''. I would also like to give him a MOW point for assuming I was actually being clever by putting this in the Edit Reason space:
-->''Wait, but TheLongestJourney is...[[StoryToGameplayRatio Oh]], I see what you did there...''
WillyFourEyes: Hee hee...thanks. I kinda feel bad about the edit reason, though, as I haven't played enough of ''The Longest Journey'' to figure out how long its cutscenes are.
@/{{Koveras}}: Actually, ''TLJ'' is not cutscene-heavy at all (unlike ''Dreamfall'') but I assumed you meant that the the epic plot of the game completely overshadows a high-quality but otherwise pretty standard point-and-click gameplay...
----
ZanderSchubert: Whoever linked "Necromancer Solves Case" on the EssentialThirdActTwists page to PushingDaisies.
----
EddieCurrent: Please join me in presenting Infinix with this MadeOfWin, for all the Awesome he's brought to the SuperSentai pages lately. Including making the rest of us look good. Bravo, good sir!
----
NateTheGreat: To whoever added the subtle ''ThePrincessBride'' joke to the Bible It Just Bugs Me. "This was after grounding had been invented, but before time-outs." At least I assume this was a subtle ''ThePrincessBride'' joke.
----
{{Medinoc}}: To {{Citizen}}, for the picture name in the HomosexualReproduction page.
ShayGuy: He does have a knack for those, doesn't he?
----
ThePaintedMaypole: One MadeOfWin to whoever made this contribution to BeardOfSorrow:
''MoulinRouge'' opens with a grieving bearded Christian. [[{{Jesus}} No, not that one]].
----
[=BritBllt=]: I feel kind of guilty, getting a MadeOfWin when AnonymousMcCartneyfan has spent the past month on cleaning up and fixing all the errors on the main {{Unwinnable}} page. He's pretty much single-handedly adopted the page and remade it with win, so he has my vote. :)
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: Thanks!
----
Doug S. Machina: I liked the meta twist in ItWasHisSled.
Also, from the SuzumiyaHaruhi page:
PerverseSexualLust ? Search your feelings, you know it to be true.
----
{{sgrunt}}: to {{TsundeRay}} for the [[TheStinger stinger]] on {{NetHack}}, which brought a grin to this [=NetHacker's=] face...
----
JapaneseTeeth: A MoW for whoever did the (current) caption at BodyguardCrush. I've seen at least 3 different captions there, so this one cracked me up. For posterity's sake, it currently reads [[spoiler: Trust me, next time you come to this page, the pun will have changed.]]
{{Shale}}: And it has.
----
CrypticMirror: A MoW for whoever came up with the stinger at the very end of the [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel/DoctorWho Doctor Who High Octane Nightmare Fuel]] page...
{{Tangent 128}}: Seconded.
tennessean: I potholed it so that other people can easily access the page from here.
----
SilentHunter: Whoever had the idea for TheUniversalGenreSavvyGuide.
DragonQuestZ: Me, although it was inspired by all the varied lists.
----
{{Excel-2009}}. I thought the entry for StupidJetpackHitler in ''YouHaveToBurnTheRope'' was pretty funny, if only tangentially related.
{{DracMonster}}: Thank you. We will get EVERY DAMN TROPE on that page eventually, I swear it!
----
nomuru2d: I nominate whoever put up the picture for The Emperor on the [[Characters/{{Ptitlefjcz80qe}} Dissidia Characters page]]. I laughed long and hard.
JKRoo: Seconded. Oh, so very very seconded.
JapaneseTeeth: Thirded. I burst out laughing when I saw that.
----
Enlong: Whoever came up with the banner put at the top of SubjectiveTropes. Captures the idea of subjective pretty danged well.
SilentHunter: Seconded.
{{Rothul}}: And the AltText is now a lot better too!
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: Thirded. I like the "surrender" body language.
----
merton: everyone on TheBible 's page, for their steadfast insistance in putting spoiler tags around the fact that [[spoiler:Jesus dies]].
{{Citizen}}: A true case of YouShouldKnowThisAlready (ya rly), but I'm not going to play that game.
----
SilentHunter: Razgriz 2K9, for his pictures in MnogoNukes.
----
{{Lale}}: This answer to [[JustBugsMe/{{Up}} why Carl didn't get busted by the FAA for flying a house down the street]] in ''{{Up}}'': "Hello, is this the FAA? Yeah, there's this guy flying in a house. Yes, he's attached his house to a million balloons and he's just flying it down the... hello? Hello?" CrowningMomentOfFunny! I was practically rotfl! They should have included that in the actual movie!
----
{{Haven}}: Fifth_Rider for the Sartre quote at the top of the NeonGenesisEvangelion page. That's just perfect.
----
{{Enlong}}: So I was reading through YouMakeMeSic, and when I reached the bottom, I saw the PoorCommunicationKills index nav-bar. One of the links on that nav-bar was simply [[CodeGeass Lelouch]]. One MOW to whoever set that up.
StFan: Nobody set it up. This is purely a problem with the automated indexing. Every link following the index list on the page will be used as the next index entry if it's just after the bullet point. Only way to avoid this is to eliminate the links at the beginning of the examples entries in the PoorCommunicationKills page.
{{Pykrete}}: So basically the MOW goes to some [[GoodBadBugs quite deserving]] ghost data?
TheAdvertisementServer: WOULDN'T BE THE FIRST TIME, MEAT-SACK.
----
{{Freezer}}: MoW - with a side of "I see what you did there" to {{Mason}} for this AuthorsSavingThrow entry"
* Jesus... From TheBible... WordOfGod says he was trying to fix a CharacterDerailment, but it resulted in just as much backlash as before. [[spoiler: Sorry]]
----
{{Deuxhero}}:Whoever (unknown, IP adress is 67.66.201.215) wrote the GettingCrapPastTheRadar Bullet point before GroinAttack on ''{{House}}''.
----
{{Cidolfas}}: For Rothul, for coming up with the YKTTW for "One Letter Title", all in poetry. It's not even a trope yet, but it's brilliant!
{{Rothul}}: Thank you! It has since been launched as OneLetterTitle. Anyone better with meter than I, feel free to revise!
{{alliterator}}: Oh man, that is so awesome. It even inspired me to write the entry for ''{{Z}}''.
----
{{thatother1dude}}: OK, it might not be ''exactly'' a joke, but I can't stop laughing at this entry of MillsAndBoonProse:
* {{Nasuverse}} sex scenes are commonly a mild form of this (more so in ''{{Tsukihime}}'' than the later ''FateStayNight''). Oddly, they're also written in first-person perspective...
If I ever read any Nasuverse visual novels I hope it's not as hilarious sounding as the image that gives me in my head.
{{bluepenguin}}: I don't know how hilarious your mental image is, but Nasu's sex scenes are definitely more funny than sexy (in most people's opinion).
----
ParadoxicTitle: To {{alcatrazz}}, for his hilarious comment under the Demonic Spiders - Real Life section. Someone made a comment about how humans qualified (mainly because they killed so many animals). His response:
"Since when do we let woodland animals edit pages?"
[[{{Understatement}} I lol'd]].
----
{{Tal9922}}: To the genius that came up with the corresponding image/caption for the MamaBear and PapaWolf pages, your MoW is long overdue (even assuming the change is recent).
Seriously, try switching between the two pages consecutively.
{{Medinoc}}: Wow. Seconding that, too. However, wasn't the Cable picture intentional?
{{Madrugada}} Pretty much. {{ccoa}} is the one responsible for the pair of them.
----
{{SonicGTR}} A MOW to whoever drew and/or uploaded the picture for HitboxDissonance. This fan of both {{Touhou}} and SuzumiyaHaruhi almost needed a new keyboard when he first saw it.
{{Medinoc}}: Seconded. Also, what is this pic from?
{{Citizen}}: Looks like a Touhou sketch someone pulled off of Deviantart.
----
{{sgrunt}}: to LeighSabio for the Laconic entries for {{Laconic/Fanboy}} and Laconic/FanGirl; admittedly not the most laconic but still apt.
----
vicnog: I don't know whether this comment in the LamarckWasRight page or the response to it is funnier:
* [[{{Popeye}} You can't inherit a pipe!]]
** Why not? This troper inherited his dad's Rolex.
A MOW to both tropers. Cheers!
----
{{Grimace}}: A shiny MOW to {{schism}}, for this entry in ''TheHappening'', purely by virtue of the enthusiasm displayed in the entry just made me crack right up.
* So, the environment is both murderous and incapable of reason? Sounds like a job for '''[[{{KillItWithFire}} FIRE]]'''.
{{Haven}}: So very seconded.
----
Curtmack: One bright sunshiney Made Of Win to whoever put "IHaveManyNames" under Aelita [[strike:Lyoko]] [[strike:Hopper]] [[strike:Schaeffer]] Stones (I think) on [[Characters/CodeLyoko the character sheet]] for ''CodeLyoko''.
StFan: That would be me. ^_^ Didn't do it for the lolz, though, just thought it was fitting.
----
{{Enlong}}: To {{Turrican}} for the inspired pun that is the Laconic entry for ''SonicTheHedgehog2006''
{{Sonic}} [[ObviousBeta rushed]].
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: To {{LEXicon}}, for the awesome [[SelfDemonstratingArticle self-demonstrating]] page for {{Michael McConnohie}}. Doesn't break [[{{Disgaea}} character]] once.
{{thatother1dude}}: I believe I actually nominated that a couple months ago (no one responded though).
----
Tropers/{{Dark}}: One to {{Tunod}} for the rather clever StealthPun for the [=Chekov's Gun=] entry on the ''Film/StarTrek'' movie page.
----
{{thatother1dude}}: One to whoever is responsible for the RunningGag on the ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheBraveAndTheBold'' page about [[BoldInflation AQUAMAN]].
----
{{Be}}: Indicating that you can find diamonds in dog turds, this entry in DarthWiki/NonExistentFictionRecommendations:
* '''AtlasShrugged: The Musical'''. The showstopper halfway through the third act must be seen to be believed.
I'd pay to see it, that's all I know. (Not saying that NEFR is a dog turd, saying that ''AtlasShrugged'' is a dog turd. K? K)
----
{{Grev}}: Whoever had the bad fishing experience 'round these parts gets one for FishingForSole:
Several false alarms and several boots later, you start to wonder. Why are there so many boots? Fish don't wear boots, hell, they don't even have feet. Yet there seems to be more boots in the water than there are fish. And it's not just boots, either. Spare tires, tin cans, other useless junk... '''''why does it seem like you're fishing in Lake Erie?'''''
{{Specialist290}}: I would like to second that nomination on the basis of it being one of the [[IncrediblyLamePun lamest]] (and thus most awesome) puns ever.
----
{{sgrunt}}: to {{rjung}} for the picture on {{Paranoia}}. Remember, citizens, happiness is mandatory!
----
K: Whoever added this to the ''{{Animorphs}}'' page gets one, because it makes me laugh every time I see it.
StarCrossedLovers: She's a beautiful, smart, independant, funny and spirited suburban teenage hottie. He is a fucking bird.
{{Grimace}}: I can't help but read that as an advert for a damn Rob Schneider movie. (still awesome though).
----
{{Ronnie}}: One to whoever put this gem on WarpThatAesop:
* ''Monsters Inc.'': The monsters in your closet just work for a federal utility company, so in essence, they are bureaucrats. All the more reason to be afraid of them.
----
{{thatother1dude}}: This section of the TVTropesDrinkingGame (specifically the end):
* Take two sips if ThisTroper relates how shocked, SHOCKED, they are that an example from their favorite series hasn't already been added.
** Take three sips if ThisTroper was right to expect said example to be mentioned sooner.
** Finish the bottle if said example ''has'' been mentioned already.
** Two bottles if ''you'' were the one to add the example and forgot about it.
** Three if ''has'' been mentioned before and the reason it's not there anymore was because ''it wasn't a real example''.
** Four if you haven't yet died of alcohol poisoning.
*** For the personal safety of those who actually want to ''try'' this drinking game, change "bottle" in the above four steps to "glass". And for that matter, omit the last one entirely.

{{Antheia}}: A [=MoW=] point to rjung for the StrangeSyntaxSpeaker article. I didn't even realize what was odd about the text until I was halfway through or so, I just felt there was... something. That's a sign of serious writing skills.
{{Pykrete}}: Holy hell. It took me a while to notice what was going on there when I was ''looking for it''. Very subtle, but elegant.
ShayGuy: It's right in the first paragraph.
AMereServantOfGod: [[CaptainObvious O RLY?]]
RadicalTaoist: Yeah, that's quite impressive. It was hard coming up with a suitable Laconic entry.
{{Freiberg}}: That takes some skill. And this comes from a guy who writes long and complicated acrostics into his history notes.
----
{{Earnest}}: One to {{vifetoile}} for the laconic description of Laconic/PoweredByAForsakenChild. It made me lol ''and'' want to buy a Soylent Prius.
{{Vifetoile}}: Thank you! {{Sgrunt}} made a change to it, so s/he deserves some recognition, too. :-)
{{sgrunt}}: All in the interest of making a [[LaconicWiki Laconic]] article even shorter while preserving the wit... but if it's worthy of recognition, so be it. :-)
{{Vifetoile}}: Well, no Troper is an island, sufficient unto herself. This wiki needs everyone to make it great.
----
{{DOTMW}}: I don't know if it's been said already but everyone who contributed their own personal stories to the CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming Troper Tales page has my sincere gratitude. I am constantly inspired by the warmth and humanity displayed there that offers hope that SweetExists. So a MAJOR MadeOfWin to everyone who shared their stories with us.
----
Curtmack: One to whoever came up with the designation "Always Neutral Hungry" to refer to the [[{{Warhammer 40000}} Tyranids]].
DeuxHero:Fairly sure "Neutral Hungry" is an existing fanon D&D term for various animals who, being int<3 and are not undead (I don't know why undead are evil when they are mindless either) are forced to TrueNeutral alignment.
----
MorkaisChosen: A truly inspired reply to the comment about General Studies exams at the bottom of AuthorVocabularyCalendar. I was amused but not planning to add this here... until I saw the pothole for "She got an A."
{{Syckls}}: I would just like to note that the aforementioned entry was deleted from the AuthorVocabularyCalendar page eight hours after it was given a mention here. I'm not taking sides on the issue, but I felt it had to be said.
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: For the record (reading from the page history), the pothole for "She got an A" was ThePointsMeanNothing. (No, it wasn't me.)
----
Ronka87: It's is pretty old by now, but I had to mention this exchange from the discussion page of ''InstrumentOfGod:''
-->'''KrazehPenguin:''' How in the world did you find out about this book?
-->'''EricDVH:''' We didn't find out about it, ''it found out about '''us'''.''
----
MrDeath: One to {{Wretchkin}} for the opening quotes to the {{Batman}} page. Cracked me up.
{{Wretchkin}}: I had to do it. 'Cause he's ''Batman.''
----
{{Haven}}: One for whoever wrote the line "below is a condensed catalog of horrors that will make you doubt in the {{Auto Revive}} of {{Crystal Dragon Jesus}}" in BeingGoodSucks. (Actually, that whole page is rather well-written, but that one made me lol). And, I know it's a little redundant to give FastEddie Made of Win points, but one to him for this snappy reply in {{Firefly}}'s discussion page:
->'''Meocross''': wow.... this series is only 12 freaking episodes yet i see it on almost every trope i stumble on. what is in this show? o_O
->'''FastEddie''': Everything good.
{{Earnest}}: Thank you! ^_^ Every so often I manage a nice turn of phrase like that.
----
{{Sikon}}: Whoever added this to WMG/{{Portal}}:
* The Companion Cube is a pastiche of every flat, plot-irrelevant love interest character ever. It's identical to every other NPC except for a small tag that marks it as a love interest; the only relationship you have with it is informed; the structure of a level is artificially manipulated to make it unwinnable without the love interest for no given plot reason; and the only purpose it serves in the story is to turn GLaDOS forcing you to "kill" it into a Rape The Dog moment for the villain.
{{Sparkysharps}}:My God...That is ''brilliant''.
----
T-Jack: One to whoever added the first line in ThreePlusTwo. Major spoiler indeed.
----
MetaFour: The matching pictures and captions on WarmupBoss and WakeUpCallBoss.
DrNamgge: I only just noticed that. Shame the WarmupBoss image is from the Beta version.
FusionDragon: Actually, going by the ring counter, I think it's a ROM hack.
----
{{Kalle}}: Oh my god, whoever potholed the ''entire'' strawberry milk speech on the ''{{Gintama}}'' page deserves serious points from me. If only because it made me burst out laughing just as hard as when I first saw it in the anime.
----
L: I simply approve of the MSPaint article. It's a solid piece of writing.
L: While I'm at it, I give similar approval to the {{Alchemy}} article.
----
GGCrono: A huge MOW to whoever added the comment on the SealedEvilInACan entry for {{Ghostbusters}}. :D
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW to the author of the last line in the GratuitousGerman lead-in (about the Nazis). Got me laughing really hard. :D
tennessean: I personally liked the "psycho[[FreudWasRight anal]]ysis" bit in the line immediately above that one! :D
----
{{Balesirion}}: To the person who made the TabletopGames section on GratuitousJapanese be "[[AC:[[TableTopGames Teiberu Toppu Ge-mu]]]] [[strike:[[AC:[[TengenToppaGurrenLagann Lagann]]]]]]"
{{Haven}}: I picked up an [=MoW=] for that already, but thanks!

InsanityPrelude: The chain of wicks starting from Laconic/MadeOfWin. Maybe I'm just in a weird mood today but I lol'd.
Doug S Machina: That's me. Thank you.

MaverickHunter40245:
* Narm: Gears of War 2: Dom killing Maria because she's no longer hot.

AnonymousMcCartneyfan: A point to [=BritBllt=] for fixing the main {{Unwinnable}} page by making new folders so the "Other Videogamea" folder would close again. Also, for naming it the "Other Videogames" folder.
----
WWRU: Found this in BatmanArkhamAsylum. Big thanks to every troper who joined in (with the exception of myself, obviously. [[EvenEvilHasStandards That's just mean.]])
* MonsterClown: You have one guess. [[ThisIsSparta ONE. GUESS.]]
** [[CompletelyMissingThePoint Two-Face?]]
** I think he meant the Mad Hatter.
** It's obviously Harley Quinn.
** Jesus, he said monster, man. It's Croc.
** Seriously guys, '''monster''' and '''clown'''. [[OverlyLongGag It can only be the Titan-infected henchmen with clown make-up]].
Asmodemus:Yay, I was mentioned! As part of something with a group of other people but still. I added Harley Quinn.
{{Be}}: My first point! I'd like to thank the Academy, Batman, my dull-ass job and Kanye West for not interrupting my speech, you're all fantastic.
{{Nithael}}: And I'm the one responsible for the last part ("Seriously guys..."). Thanks for my first point!
----
{{Excel-2009}}. I want to shake the hand of whoever came up with this gem on HotBlooded:

** ...because he is RUNNING OUT OF TIME!!!
** '''DAMMIT!!!'''

Deuxhero:To {{Antwan}} from taking my request for formating of the LegendsOfTheHiddenTemple page.
----
{{Kizor}}: My thanks to whoever spotted AtlantisIsBoring and to whoever wrote it. Both deeds are good demonstrations of the best of our ability.
----
Kudos to whoever chose this particular phrasing for the MagicalNegro entry listed for ''TheShawshankRedemption''. I'm glad I wasn't drinking anything:
"Red, in a way, but it's also true that Andy is Red's Magical Whitey, so to speak."
{{Rothul}}: Thank you!
----
{{alliterator}}: \\
One to MetaFour\\
For launching the [[HaikuWiki Haiku]]\\
[[HaikuWiki Wiki]]. Thank you lots.
DragonQuestZ: And for the Haiku for Haiku/MontyPythonsFlyingCircus.
MrDeath: And one MOW to WhogusTheWhatsler for Haiku/TheDarkKnightTrilogy's Haiku. It literally made me laugh out loud. It's ''exactly'' the type of Haiku the Joker himself would write.
Deuxhero:\\
I added a break[[hottip:* :to the start of your message]]\\
You'll thank me latter - {{Monk}}\\
I give up on[[hottip:* :speaking like]] this.\\
(Isn't droping Wiki to the 3rd line cheating, eh, the hottips likely are as a well)
----
{{Grev}}: I'm pretty sure one's been given out for the entirety of the RealLife page (particularly the examples), but if not, here you go.
L: "Surprisingly good graphics" would have been pretty blah by itself, so I'm glad someone appended it with "for a legacy system".
----
ThinksTooMuch: Despite never having seen {{Pokemon}} I still had to ask this for the WMG/TimeLord entry:
Ash's father is a Time Lord, his mother is Haruhi Suzumiya, and everthing takes place in instrumentality.
* I am unrepentant.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Oh dearest, I've never laughed as hard as I did over a [[Characters/{{Ptitlefjcz80qe}} Characters page]] as I did for the one for DissidiaFinalFantasy. To everyone who contributed the fanart, You're Winner!
----
Musoeun: One MoW and free hug to whoever added this one to FirstPersonSmartass:
-> '''''Spenser'' is somewhat a Poor Man's Substitute for Marlowe''' and is often brought up as the direct inspiration for fantasy novels using this character-type. (Emphasis mine.)
The literature geek inside of me just about died laughing. I dearly hope that was intentional, but it's gold even if not.
----
OuttaTheBLAM: I think I need to suggest this bizarre exchange from ADateWithRosiePalms:
* Because it's about as sexual as a potato singing "Baa Baa Black Sheep", Wooldoor masturbating is shown multiple times. It involves breaking his own finger, among other things. Go figure.
** I'd bet you a hundred bucks that someone, somewhere is [[RuleThirtyFour getting off]] [[VeggieTales to singing potatoes]] right now...
*** {{Freezer}}: That's actually Rule 36; "[[http://rule-36.urbanup.com/2412662 It's someone's fetish. No exceptions."]]
{{thatother1dude}}: We had a page for that, but now it's just a redirect to the original page.
{{Phartman}}: I don't know who blueshifted it, but I believe the potato bit was mine.
----
BobbyG: One to BrokenChaos, for [[GreatCrashContributors compiling a list]] of every Troper who edited prior to TheGreatCrash, fixing a nasty copyright issue in the process.
{{Haven}}: Wow. Seconded so freaking hard.
Thirded by OuttaTheBLAM
{{Cidolfas}}: Fourthed!
ShayGuy: How the...wait, what copyright issue?
BrokenChaos: Thanks guys. Copyright issue was a potential situation (hopefully never an ''actual'' legal issue) where contributors to the wiki prior to TheGreatCrash aren't attributed in any way, which is a required part of the CC BY-SA -- the licence all content here is contributed and used under. Similar issue with the archived history (post-GC, pre-2009-07-12), but the admins have said there will be a tool for that in the (hopefully-near) future. Made o' win for 'em when that gets coded up.
----
{{alliterator}}: On the ''{{Zombieland}}'' page, to whoever called ''Zombieland'' the "GurrenLagann of zombie movies." Because that is so freakin' true. Also, whoever wrote the description of the movie is awesome.
{{Moviepyr0}}: That was me. Dude, you just totally made my week. I also created the page and description (my first ever) save for a great change of the line "hallow, shallow lives made no more meaningful by always running for their lives" to "hallow, shallow lives made no more meaningful by always running for them" courtesy of JustCallMeNed, and everything that follows from there in the first paragraph are totally kickass additions by unknown tropers. Also, I'd like to give another shout out to JustCallMeNed for changing the line "Zombieland is a little more concerned with turning zombies into a pulpy mess." back to my original "Zombieland is a little more concerned with knocking their fucking teeth in." as well as an unknown troper for doing the same when someone changed it again.
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW to whoever started the [[UsefulNotes/ConspiracyTheories Useful Notes on Conspiracy Theories]] entry. I've been waiting for a long time for this page. ^^
{{Deuxhero}}:I started a YKTTW requesting such, but don't think this is a result of it.
----
MetaFour: Whoever was responsible for the caption on {{Area 51}}.
SilentHunter: That was me. Thanks.
----
MrDeath: Whoever added it has been lost to the sands of time, but I must give one out for this line in LousyAlternateTitles:
* It's called ADateWithRosiePalms because it turns out '''[[GGundam This Hand Of Mine Glows With An Awesome Power]]''' isn't actually an example.
DrgonQuestZ: That was me.
----
{{Haven}}: I'm not sure if this has been nominated before, but Rogue7 for his pithy reply to this line in KavorkaMan:
** Legend has it that when Franklin returned from his post as the American ambassador to France, he was afflicted with every venereal disease known to medicine at the time.
*** GottaCatchEmAll!
{{Rogue 7}}: Hee! This made my night. And I've been having a good night.

{{G-Mon}}: (S)He's probably not going to see this, but one for the UnknownTroper at 83.59.144.177 for the second line of this bit in InformalEulogy:
* (snip) ..."My client doesn't even know how to drive a car".
** [[DrivesLikeCrazy Damn right he doesn't.]]
[=~8th_Pacifist~=]: That was me, before I got known. [[SmallNameBigEgo I'd like to thank the Academy]].
----
{{Enlong}}: A point to whoever came up with the name for LetXBeTheUnknown. Math puns rule!
{{alliterator}}: Though I created the trope, I did not launch it and give it its name. That honor belongs to {{Prfnoff}}.
----
Curtmack: This, on ScrewTheRulesIHavePlot:
* Let's not even get started on the Seal Of Orichalcos, which would require about 5 cards worth of text space to explain the rules if was actually made.
** That's one of the simpler cards. All of your monsters get 500 more ATK points, you get 5 extra monster spaces and the loser loses their soul.
{{Cassius335}}: Speaking as someone who ''does'' know what a Catapult Turtle is, I must point out [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/The_Seal_of_Orichalcos that it's a ''bit'' more complicated that that]]. Cute line, though.
Oh, and losing your soul, thankfully, [[http://yugioh.wikia.com/wiki/Card_Appearances:The_Seal_of_Orichalcos is an anime-only effect]]. [[hottip:* :Good thing too. Can you imagine how scary UDE would be if they really could pull that shit? No-one would mock [[{{Yu-Gi-OhTheAbridgedSeries}} childrens card games]] ''then'', would they?]]

{{Rissa}}: This pothole in AttractiveBentGender:
** Am I seriously the only one who has a problem with ''Thor and Odin'' making attractive women? [[BrianBlessed What the hell did women look like in Norse mythology?]]
because now I want to know what that would look like.
ROBRAM89: Despite the fact that I come here every day [[SmallNameBigEgo just to see if I've been congratulated for anything]], I'd like to point out that somebody mentioned that one already. Thanks though.
@/{{Koveras}}: Do you know this rule of the internet, {{Rissa}}? If there is a male character out there, there '''is''' a gender-bent version of him, no exceptions. So... meet [[http://s58.radikal.ru/i159/0908/61/36afdde48dce.jpg Odine and Toruko]], original concept by yours truly, drawn by a close friend of mine. ^^
wllw: "Your browser is trying to contact an Internet site that is used in connection with distribution of photos depicting sexual abuse of children. This is a criminal offense in accordance with the Italian penal code." This is what I get when I click the above link.
{{Citizen}}: Russian web meets Italian censorship. Fascinating. [[http://yfrog.com/0s36afdde48dcej Rehosted.]]
@/{{Koveras}}: Yeah, I get that message far too often when I access my Russian blog, too. Thanks for reuploading the picture, Citizen, I should have thought of it myself. ^^
{{whitetigah}}: Weird, I'm from Italy too and yet I didn't get that message. Possibly because I'm using [=OpenDNS=]?
wllw: Thanks for rehosting. Nice pic, by the way.
----
RobertBingham: Nomination for whoever wrote this sub-entry for {{Touhou}} on the DynamicEntry page. I just love the turn of phrase at the end:
* Worse than this is Chen, in her appearance in ''Shoot the Bullet''. Usually, the player is encouraged to spend the first seconds before the boss appears stationary, charging his camera. This is usually well and good... except that Chen then proceeds to enter screen by ''falling like a brick'' in the exact same vertical line the player spawns at, usually ending with the first-time player eating a catgirl to the face.

FreezairForALimitedTime: Thirded! D'aaaaaawwwww...

Arutema: [[BerserkButton Stop it! Stop it! Stop it!]] [[MadnessMantra Stop it! Stop it!

AMereServantOfGod: [[CompletelyMissingThePoint ...so you're saying I can get a free Nintendo Wii, then?]]
** No, you're stuck with a PS3. Let the ConsoleWars begin! [[EvilLaugh Muah-ha-ha!]]
{{Rogue 7}}: Oh quit whining. I'm 20 years old and I haven't had a real date in my life. Doesn't mean I don't agree with the sentiment. Fifthed.
** Arutema: Trust me. Eight more years of unwanted celibacy and things [[DespairEventHorizon ain't gonna look so pretty!]]
cg12345: Geez, I just thought it was a nice sentiment; I didn't say I was going to force you into marriage at gunpoint, you know?
TriggerLoaded: Sixed... Err, Sixthed... Err, agree. Just because I have no prospects of marriage in my future, doesn't mean I can't be happy for those who do succeed.
{{Malchus}}: "as if it was something everyone wanted" potholed to {{Asexuality}}? [[UnfortunateImplications Because all asexuals are angry and bitter non-romantics who hate love with a passion]], [[SarcasmMode right]]? Please, a person can be asexual and still be pleased for other people who can find happiness with other people. Heck, a person can be asexual and ''still get married''.
Joysweeper: You can be asexual and fall in love, or go {{Shipping}}, even. Honestly? It doesn't matter how long we've gone without dates, blowing up because someone else succeeded where you haven't just makes you look like a JerkAss.
{{Vifetoile}}: Seventhed. Awww.
DarkSasami: It's a toss-up between [[SourGrapesTropes sour grapes]] and HypeAversion for [[{{Gayngst}} rather a lot of us]].
* {{Malchus}}: So? Every relationship I've tried has failed so far. Doesn't justify me ranting at people who succeed or soehorning asexuals (I'm related to one, so misunderstandings about them are ''my'' BerserkButton) as part of said ranting.
{{G-Mon}}: [[SugarWiki/CrowningMomentOfFunny I found this entire exchange hilarious.]]
ZanderSchubert: Firstly, thanks for the MOW points. Secondly, I'm glad/surprised/humbled/anotheradjective that something I've done has resulted in people going "[[{{WAFF}} Awwww....!]]" and "[[BerserkButton I KEEL YUO!!!!!!11~]]" at the same time. And, for the record, I'm single and dateless too. So, whatever...
----
Muzozavr: Since I'm a newbie to TV Tropes, and thus have no idea how to get a look at the "who edited what" database -- a MOW to whoever put that picture on the MindRape trope. If the page wasn't NightmareFuel for someone, it is definitely NightmareFuel NOW.
{{Medinoc}}: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MindRape?action=diff&minor=y&more=Y It's Fifth_Rider]]. And new entries at the top, please.
----
{{Sparkysharps}}: Their name is lost from the page history, but whoever topped off the [[RunningGag Running]] DavidBowie [[RunningGag Gag]] in OneSceneWonder with this line (in bold) deserves a MOW
* The weighted companion cube from VideoGame/{{Portal}} is one of the game's most famous icons and is prominent in the game's merchandise, as well as a popular subject in fan art. The companion cube does not speak or move or threaten to stab you and only appears in a single level of the game, but is much more well known than the protagonist Chell or the villain GLaDOS. Hell, he even got a [[CompanionCube trope]] named after him.
** '''Rumor has it that he's going to be played by DavidBowie in TheMovie.'''

AMereServantOfGod: One Made of Win to Haven, for this entry on the {{Scribblenauts}} [[{{WMG/Scribblenauts}} Wild Mass Guessing]] page:

The next time Sinestro attacks Oa, he'll be fended off by an army of Longcats.

RobinZimm: The following line in MoreDakka warmed the cockles of my engineering heart:

{{Medinoc}}: This one is for both some troper lost to history and TheAdvertisementServer, making it an AdOfWin as well. But even our almighty ad server couldn't have done [[http://www.medinoc.fr/web/ImagesDiverses/ImWithStupid.jpg this]] alone.
TheAdvertisementServer: MUCH AS I HATE TO SHARE CREDIT WITH ANY HUMAN, I HAVE TO ADMIT [[ActuallyPrettyFunny THAT IS RATHER HUMOROUS]] AND GIVE UNKNOWN TROPER CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE.

{{Magus}}: MOW to {{AOD}} for an incredibly interesting diatribe in the forums on meat and Western culture. It's in "Just Bugs Me!".
{{Haven}}: There's a thread for forum MoW, it's in the "pinned" section.
----
JapaneseTeeth: One MOW to everyone who contributed to the "credits" on the WhoseLineIsItAnyway [[Funny/WhoseLineIsItAnyway Crowning Moment Of Funny]] page.
ShayGuy: Agreed. All it needs is a little more "this troper"-ness.
----
GGCrono: I'd like to toss a [=MoW=] to Alexlayer for the new page pic on IncrediblyLamePun. I've seen it before, but it's just so fitting. Good show. :D
{{thatother1dude}}: To bad that, unlike the previous image, it doesn't actually ''demonstrate the trope''.
{{Haven}}: I'm confused about how replacing something that is a pun with something that ''isn't'' is a better way to demonstrate IncrediblyLamePun.
{{Pykrete}}: When I saw this [=MOW=] and checked late last night, it was [[http://media.photobucket.com/image/sephiroth%20dis%20pear/ash-valitine/final%20fantasy/th_DisPear.jpg this]] picture. Someone must've changed it this morning, perhaps the {{Collective Groan}} was too much.
{{Cassius335}}: Yeah, the "Shall I give you Dis Pear" pic definatelty fits the trope and I can see why someone would think it fitted ''too'' well...
{{Shale}} While I prefer "Several bad puns later...", I'm at a loss for how a terrible pun doesn't demonstrate a trope about terrible puns.
{{thatother1dude}}: Because it perpetuate the '''''incredibly freaking frustrating''''' notion that this article is "bitch about puns that you think are stupid" not "puns that are acknowledged as bad", which is why I've had to go through the entire article picking out non-examples ''at least four times''.
ShayGuy: It's about something? I thought it was a place to PotHole things. :P
{{Cassius335}}: "Dis pear" is at least related to the trope. "Several bad puns later" isn't even a picture.
On a semi-related note, am I the only one who actually prefers a bit of white-space to shoving a pic off to the right out of the way? Pictures catch the eye so much easier when they're on the left.
FastEddie: Good topic for the forum, rather than here.
{{thatother1dude}}: The page image thing we'll take to the discussion page.
----
{{Medinoc}}: To whomever did the media categories in GratuitousJapanese.
{{Haven}}: That was me, glad you [[strike:r]]liked it. :o)
FreezairForALimitedTime: I bust a gut at the TabletopGames section, and the associated BilingualBonus. Mmmmm... Cheetos.
----
{{Grimace}}: A bit of win for Tzetze for his work in cleaning up DanBrowned - rarely is it that simple hard work is appreciated here. Now, it should be said, more than a few others have made an effort in chainsawing the incorrect examples as well, and I give them crumbs of win also, but Tzetze gets the full point for putting the following as his "Reason": ''ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn''.
{{Cassius335}}: * chuckle* Which means?
{{Medinoc}}: From memory of Wikipedia, it translates as "in his house in R'lyeh dead Cthulhu waits dreaming". Maybe Cthulhu [[SleepEating sleep-devoured]] [=1d6=] examples per second?
TropeKira: So that means that TvTropes is R'lyeh? ....Awesome.
----
FreezairForALimitedTime: One bit of nerdy but clever win for the person who put that caption on the picture on the ''LuigisMansion'' page.
{{Luthen}}: It was Cassius335 according to page history.
{{Cassius335}}: No, not the current one. He's refferering to the caption before that, which said "It's a picture... but I wouldn't call it art." The MOW point therefore goes to UnknownTroper 70.120.171.81, not me.
FreezairForALimitedTime: Awww, I liked that old caption. It was clever. (And it's "she," beeteedubs.)
{{Cassius335}}: I don't see the clever meself, but... * shrug*
FreezairForALimitedTime: May I ask, in SincerityMode, if you've truthfully played ''LuigisMansion?'' And if you have, have you ever used the GameBoy Horror for more than just warping back to the foyer/the stuff you have to use it for?
{{Cassius335}}: That would be a 'no'. I take it I missed a reference?
FreezairForALimitedTime: Ah-ha! You ''did'' miss a reference. It's what Luigi [[ICantUseTheseThingsTogether says to himself]] every time you use the GameBoy Horror examine one of the copius paintings in the mansion.
{{Cassius335}}: Ah,fair enough...
----
{{Noxshade}}:The picture comment on AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield.
----
{{Earnest}}: I approve of SpectreAgent's addition of the picture to EnemyCivilWar. That picture is illustrative in so many ways...
{{Malchus}}: I also approve of the picture choice and the caption. Although, some inane part of me thinks that those two Cylons will either kill each other or [[FoeYay start making out]]... or both. Dammit, I should take a break from reading shipping tropes...

rsm109: Whoever coined "AK-666" to refer to ''[[HarryPotter Avada Kedavra]]'' on BerserkButton has my undying love.
tennessean: Let me guess: that's a reference to the Russian [[GatlingGood AK-630]] [[MoreDakka CIWS]], am I right?
----
Curtmack: To whoever potholed "[[{{xkcd}} in an organ accident]]" on the ''MaiOtome'' example for SuspiciouslySpecificDenial.
----
@/{{Koveras}}: One to TerminusEst13 for his despearate plea to the PowersThatBe in the GunKata [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/GunKata?action=diff&source=y&minor=y edit history]]. I'm not being mean now, but the edit comment just cracked me up. ^^
----
{{Gemmifer}}: From SecondGayGuy: "When a major character usually comes out of the closet or at least hinted to being inside or half way through the door but a cool dropshadow covers half his body in a alluring and mysterious style[...]" Hehe.
DarkSasami: No snark intended -- what on earth does that mean?
MrDeath: I think it's an extension of the closet metaphor.
{{Gemmifer}}: Yes, I understand it like that too.
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: To whoever made Elvis a page quote on LeeroyJenkins.
----
JKRoo: One to RealSlimShadowen for all his work on JonathanCoulton's page. Now you too can get {{EarWorm}}ed by almost every song on the page. Repeatedly! All at once! [--Help.--]
RealSlimShadowen: * grabs the free hug certificate and squirrels it away, then looks longingly at his plans to make a fort out of them and realizes he's going to need to edit more*
{{Cassius335}}: Sorry, only one coupon per customer. Didn't you read the small print?
----
{{Luthen}}: One to {{Alliterator}} for his addition to OnceUponATime.
* Now, are you sitting comfortably? Then let's begin. Once upon a time...[[hottip:* :Once upon a time there was a boy who decided to stay up late and read TVTropes. Even though his parents had warned him that doing this was a bad thing, still he was compelled to do so. So, the lights of the screen illuminating his face, he carefully surfed the site, reading trope descriptions and examples, going over works pages and forum threads, until finally he looked at the clock and realized it was well past the reasonable amount of time one would surf the web. And then the boy knew his parents were right -- that by surfing TVTropes, he had [[TVTropesWillRuinYourLife ruined his life]] in such a way that he could now never go sleep. He was cursed to forever surf TVTropes, haunting the YKTTW, quietly drifting from page to page like a ghost in the machine; until one day, he met someone who had been similarly trapped. She was named {{Trope-Tan}}. Together, they decided that perhaps this wasn't such a lonely place to be stuck. And so they lived and troped {{happily ever after}}.]]
----
{{Inkblot}} One for whoever wrote the following entry [[Memes/WesternAnimation here]]:
* "There's nothing more cool than being hugged by [[ManosTheHandsOfFate Torgo]], but if Torgo tries to touch you in a place or in a way that makes you feel uncomfortable, DON'T EVER TRY THAT AGAIN, YOU BEAST!"
----
{{thatother1dude}}: From the part of the [[Characters/NeonGenesisEvangelion EVA character page]] on Yui Ikari (Shinji's mom):
"The link to the temporary picture is located at the top of this page, first page icon from the right. "
Sneaky
----
{{Rogue 7}}: One to WraithMagus for the new picture on GenreShift. I laughed out loud.
{{Citizen}}: Haha, excellent contrast.
GGCrono: I second this [=MoW=]. And I've never even seen/read Negima!
----
DragonQuestZ: One to {{Alliterator}} for the description and picture for LovecraftLite.
----
One for the angel behind the one-word entry under GushingAboutCharactersYouLike. The entry is: You. Huzzah for random kindnesses to strangers!
----
{{Shale}}: It's not in the history anymore, so a MOW to whoever added this FF7 challenge to SelfImposedChallenge:
** [[FinalDestination Initial Equipment, No Accessories, No Escaping, No Physical Attacks, No Limit Breaks, Command Materia Only]]
----
CrypticMirror: A MOW to whoever came up with the {{pothole}} in the picture of the {{Bump}} page. Well done.
{{Medinoc}}: I don't get it... :(
CrypticMirror: It's the sheer randomness of it that makes it funny.
{{Citizen}}: DO NOT TAUNT THE [[HappyFunBall HAPPY FUN FROG]]. I did the picture and pothole.
----
Doug S. Machina: A definite win for the page image and the caption explaining it on BloodierAndGorier.
{{thatother1dude}}: Already nominated. Several times. And that's not even a joke original to that page.
----
{{Earnest}}: Though SpectreAgent has demonstrated being above wanting or needing such trivial "awards" as I can present, I heartily award one MOW point for the page image in {{Ubermensch}}.
----
JBridge: Whoever made this little contribution to GoodBadBugs.
[[quoteblock]]Crysis features some extremely amusing bugs, but none are as awesome as the mighty Ascending Frog. By picking up a harmless frog from the ground and lofting it heavenwards, you will be awed as it proceeds into the stratosphere, unhindered by your puny gravity. Ascending Frogs can be seen in the wild in the cave immediately before the alien ship, where they cheerfully levitate, jumping vertically every time their hop animation cycles and staying that high until they hop again. Vicious brutes who shoot the noble Ascending Frog and subject it to gravity will pick the slain creature up and find it levitates above their hand, rotating slowly in righteous fury at their vile conduct and no doubt dubious sexual morals.[[/quoteblock]]
----
{{Arilou}}: Whoever named the "NiceJobBreakingItHerod" page. Made me laugh out loud.
----
Guest Of Dishonour: Big thanks and good show to SpaceDrake for his help on the ''AtelierRorona'' article, that page would have gotten bloody well nowhere if it wasn't for him (as I only had very basic knowledge of the game).
----
MetaFour: Omedalus for this bit from AnthropicPrinciple: ''"If the in-game villagers could see your hard drive, they'd realize their savior was not simply one courageous farm boy, but a veritable army of thousands of clones of said farm boy all pursuing the adventure simultaneously in some kind of creepy quantum superposition of protagonism."''
----
{{KillerClowns}}: A point to Floria for her(?) bit on SugarWiki/VillainWhitewashingService. Your second whitewashing was absolutely brilliant!
{{Medinoc}}: And a point for Haven's entry.
{{Haven}}: Thanks. I'm just glad to do my job to set the record straight about this wrongfully maligned...okay I can't go on any further.
----
{{Ouroboros}}: Whoever put this on AccentuateTheNegative.
->'''[[WaldorfAndStatler Waldorf]]''': Just when you think this page can't get any worse, something wonderful happens!
->'''[[TheMuppets Statler]]''': What's that?
->'''Waldorf''': It ends!
->'''Both''': Do-ho-ho-ho-hoh!
{{Rothul}}: I think that was me. Thank you!
----
{{thatother1dude}}: The troper lost to history responsible for this bit in ThisIsADrill
* The Fire Nation use a giant drill as a siege weapon in ''AvatarTheLastAirbender''. (episode title: "[[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin The Drill]]")
** Given that the country it's boring into is based on Imperial China, this could easily be called a real Chinese Fire Drill.
{{Haven}}: Seconded. And ouch. And seconded.
----
{{Inkblot}}: One for whoever wrote the caption for BeamSpam.
----
{{Grimace}} A [=MoW=] to the UnknownTroper 64.251.32.254, for this little quip at the bottom of SciFiGhetto, regarding the newly named "[=SyFy=] Channel" (put leading entry beforehand so it makes sense):
* Is it still meant to be pronounced "Sci-Fi?" This editor and everyone he knows concur that it ought to be "Siffy."
** This troper pronounces it "* sigh* Fi".
----
RobinZimm: A [=MoW=] for {{alliterator}} for SoYouWantTo/WriteAFilmNoir -- I'm shocked it hadn't been given already.
RadicalTaoist: I do remember it being [=MoWed=] already; it's probably in the archives.
----
{{Fanra}}: A huge Made of Win for whoever put:
->''CartoonAllStarsToTheRescue'': If you do drugs, you'll get to see your favourite cartoon stars!
in WarpThatAesop. If only it was true...
{{Sparkysharps}}: well, it ''could'' be, provided you light up while watching ''Boomerang''.
----
@/{{Yarrunmace}} One to the unknown troper who put the following comment on the ItJustBugsMe page for CartoonNetwork (slightly edited for grammer issues)
** This troper feels that the network has gone beyond JumpingTheShark to the point of leaving the ramp, clearing twenty sharks, clearing the Atlantic, Europe, Asia, America, the sharks again and then reaching escape velocity and crashing into Pluto.
----
{{Kinitawowi}}: One for the troper responsible for the {{Wormsign}} page; specifically, for getting a ''{{Dune}}'' example into every subsection (including RealLife).
ShayGuy: Wasn't ThisIsADrill ''criticized'' when it did that with ''TengenToppaGurrenLagann''?
Sceboal: Aren't pages that are funny in general criticized?
ThatOther1dude: And yet no one objected to doing the same with Batman examples in GrapplingHookPistol.
{{Kinitawowi}}: It works for {{Wormsign}} because ''{{Dune}}'' is the TropeNamer and the MostTriumphantExample. It worked less well for ThisIsADrill because ''Tengen'' isn't really either, as far as I can tell (disclaimer - I've never seen it), so it looks less about tribute and more about [[EntryPimp Entry Pimping]].
RealSlimShadowen: At least one person objected to the GrapplingHookPistol thing, as they edited GrapplingHookPistol to suit their tastes, cutting it down to three categories out of nine, a page quote, and a [[spoiler:fnord]]-style hidden reference.
MrDeath: Yeah, there was a whole edit war about it, after which the same person went and edited DaEditor in the same fashion.
InsanityPrelude: :| It's funny and it's not hurting anything. Sheesh.
LatwPIAT: I'll take half credit on the grounds that I added every example except Literature already there), Film (already there) and Real Life. Rest of credit goes to whoever completed the cycle.
----
{{Lemurian}}: One to the one who added the last line to this conversation:
* In a Marvel ''WhatIf?'' comic featuring a Soviet FantasticFour, Pym died from suffocation when Reed forced him to grow, rendering his lungs incapable of supplying enough oxygen to sustain him. Reed did this [[ForScience without considering the consequences]], and afterward he was [[WhatHaveIDone horrified by what he'd done]].
** So what you're saying is that, [[InSovietRussiaTropeMocksYou in Soviet comic book]], science fails ''you''?
----
ReadingChampion: One to whomever started the article CricketRules with the following:
"Describe Cricket Rules here.
No, really, please do; it seems to be some organized form of Calvinball."
Because... ''so true.''
L: What I like about CricketRules is how the descriptions on the page gradually devolve from staid encyclopedic description into a bizarre half-nonsensical parody of English culture and demeanour in general. [-Now I know what you're thinking, and I am ''completely'' aware that someone will now jump in and say "No, you don't understand, ''that's actually how Cricket is played''."-]
{{Haven}}: "There are exactly ten-ish ways to get the batsman out..." * head explodes*
{{Joysweeper}}: I was eating a pear when I got to ''"If it's raining, or just a bit cloudy, everyone goes into the pavilion and drinks tea. Occasionally, the umpires will come out, wander around the pitch a bit, decide it's still not sunny enough, and go back in.''" Then I was made helpless with laughter.
{{Madrugada}}: Indeed. That is masterful.
----
SomeSortOfTroper: Will whoever added the following to OlympusMons please collect their free hug voucher from the Information Desk:
[-[[HelloInsertNameHere Give a nickname to the captured GOD?]]\\
'"[[CrystalDragonJesus CRSTDRGJS_]]"'\\
CRSTDRGJS was sent to ALICE's PC!-]
{{thatother1dude}}: Already nominated.

{{Thnikkafan}} A MadeOfWin to whoever for the subtle potholing on the ApocalypseHow page.
* What the Integrated Data Thought Entity, the Organization, and [[TalkingToHimself Mikuru's boss]] wants to prevent indirectly by not allowing ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' to discover her powers.
----
{{Kriegsmesser}}: A win to {{Milu}} for the HeathLedger page. * salutes*
----
{{Taeraresh}}: Congratulations to whoever came up with ''GrievousBottleyHarm''. Now ''that'' is an IncrediblyLamePun.
AFreddy: For a second there, I though it said Grievous ''Buttery'' Harm, which would've been sweet.
{{Specialist290}}: But butter is kind of bland...
{{Malchus}}: I see what you did there, Freddy. Oh, by the way, no stealy my namey! ;P
----
{{Haven}}: I don't think I remembered to do this before, so: a MadeOfWin to {{occono}} for SincerityMode. [[SincerityMode It's an excellent idea!]]
----
{{thatother1dude}}: This bit from NothingIsScarier:
* ''The last man on Earth sat in a room. There was a knock upon the door.''
** For those curious, that's the ''entireity'' of Fredric Brown's short story ''Knock''.
** [[CompletelyMissingThePoint So the last woman on earth was coming over for snuggle time?]]
I literally laughed out loud.
----
{{Specialist290}}: One to {{Earnest}} for describing {{Godzilla}} as the "patron saint of collateral damage" in GodzillaThreshold. Funniest thing I've read in a while :D
{{Earnest}}: Thank you! I have my moments. ^_~
----
L: {{VoldeMart}} is just the sort of terrible pun that makes entire eyebrows fall out, fetuses start crying in the womb, and grown men's urine freeze solid mid-stream. I must give it its due.
* ShyriaDracnoir: And I have to give you [[MadeOfWin your due]] for that little bit there. Got a snicker out of me.
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW goes to the contributors to [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=ehn6d5ewjccsg0pmamd42zf4 this YKTTW]]. Normally, I'd wait until it is launched, but it seems that it won't be (for a reason).
NielJacoby: I just launched it.
@/{{Koveras}}: [[DarthWiki/HowNotToWriteAYKTTW Brilliant!]] At first, [[FridgeBrilliance I was like... but then I lol'd.]] :D You get an extra MOW for just that.
NielJacoby: For Me? [[BlindIdiotTranslation Aw, banana oil.]] * blushes* ... Extra? I never claimed to contribute In fact, I didn't contribute. But thank you for the MOW. And sorry for the misunderstanding. '''[[FridgeBrilliance Although...]]''' I ''did'' launch it, so I would ''technically'' count as a contributor. So thanks.
----
{{alliterator}}: To whoever added the picture of DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment and included this caption: ''Yo dawg, heard you like tropes, so I put a trope in your trope so you can ruin your life while you ruin your life!''
AceOfScarabs: It's a golden gag - go for ''platinum'' and make the image one of an infinitely redundant loop (Image in the image show another image with more nested inside like some demented infinite Russian Doll).
{{alliterator}}: [[StrangeMindsThinkAlike Great minds think alike!]] I did just that.
AceOfScarabs: Now you, too, deserve a [=MoW=]!
L: The fact that there's an ad embedded in the picture annoys me slightly.
{{Malchus}}: Silence, fool! You'll anger... ''[[TheAdvertisementServer HIM]].''
{{Itsmeyouidiot}}: Phht, what's he gonna do, mess up our contributor pages?
----
TheBadWolf: Whoever put this into WantonCrueltyToTheCommonComma (history dosn't go back that far)
-->[[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgment Please try to avoid]] [[GrammarNazi sounding like a stuck-up douchebag when adding examples]].
{{thatother1dude}}: Thank you, that was me, though I didn't add the {{Pot Hole}}s (at least not the first one). I put that there after reading the article when it was only a couple days old, with examples paragraphs truly proving WhatDoYouMeanItsNotAwesome and MinorInjuryOverreaction to be TruthInTelevision.
----
RobinZimm: I nominate {{Unistrut}}, who added to SecondLife, "LoadsAndLoadsOfLoading: Going places in SecondLife is like watching the mind erasure scenes from [[EternalSunshineoftheSpotlessMind Eternal Sunshine]] at half speed in reverse."
----
LatwPIAT: One to whoever, in the PitchTestingZone, wrote the line "then Gendo Ikari shoots Ocelot" That has to be the funniest DiabolusExMachina I've ever read.
----
InsanityPrelude: One MOW to MisterSix (I think?) for the Sierra folder on UnwinnableByMistake. More specifically, the full name of said folder.
{{Haven}}: It's kind of an [[{{Tsukihime}} eyesore]].
{{Medinoc}}: I'm surprised that Sierra appears at all in the "by mistake" category...
{{Inkblot}}: The Sierra folder was my idea, but the phrase itself came from Korora (and had already gotten a [=MoW=]). I'll trim it down so it's a bit less of an eyesore.
{{Haven}}: [[spoiler:Don't worry about it, I just said that for the meme.]]
----
Thinks Too Much: I feel guilty about nominating something for MadeOfWin so soon after the last time, but couldn't resist the following. Do bother to read all of it.
--->* Loads shotgun, shogun gun, ninja gun, samurai gun, pirate gun, robot gun, shojarairatebot gun, B B gun, bee bee gun, hornet hornet gun, yellow jacket yellow jacket gun, sword gun, gun sword, gun gun, regular grenades, flash grenades, fire grenades, bee grenades, hornet grenades, yellow jacket grenades, plasma grenades, grenade grenades, gun grenades, and pepper spray* .
That is from the [[TroperTales/ArsonMurderAndJaywalking real life]] by the way.
----
{{Crowley}}: I was pleasantly surprised to see that the [[TheStarscream Starscream]] article had a bit of a revamp, but it was this line at the end that I'm nominating.
''Of course, some suspect there are [[FoeYay other reasons]] why Megatron doesn't just shoot Starscream more often...''
----
{{thatother1dude}}: Whoever came up with the awesome joke of the trope title HollywoodCalifornia[[hottip:* :but seriously, can we be a little more original with these names?]]
L: For those that don't get it, the joke is that it means "Hollywood-style California" (as per HollywoodHomely) as well as "Hollywood, California". Subtle, subtle.
{{Cassius335}}: The trouble is that if people try to do orginal names, other people complain because they don't get it.
----
{{Enlong}}: One MOW point to whoever named OlympusMons. I [[LateToThePunchline just now]] understood the second part of the double-layered pun that is the name. [[spoiler: [[DontExplainTheJoke Olympus Mons is a mountain on Mars.]]]]
{{Medinoc}}: It's not ''only'' on Mars, you know... There is one on Earth too.
{{Enlong}}: Yes, but the martian one is the only one that's actually called "Olympus Mons" by English speakers. We call the other one "Mount Olympus". A slight difference, but there ya go.
DarkSasami: If there weren't one on Earth, there wouldn't be one on Mars. But anyway, that was me. Thanks!
schpeelah: I think it's the martian Olympus Mons being referenced b/c ''it's the largest mountain in the Solar System'' some 20 km I believe.
----
{{Sparkysharps}}: One MOW to to {{Impacto}} for the following bit in GoNagaiSideburnsDiscussion. I laughed for a full minute:
->Passing Lurker: Do Issac Asimov's sideburns qualify as a real-life example?
->{{Impacto}}: they are when he's drawn like [[http://img193.imageshack.us/img193/5700/badassimov.jpg this]] :p
{{thatother1dude}}: Agreed, and where is that pic from. Also, to answer the question:
[[http://media-2.web.britannica.com/eb-media/77/84477-004-941528F8.jpg That picture is an understatement]].
{{Inkblot}}: Since when is Asimov a [[AvatarTheLastAirbender firebender?]]
----
{{Vifetoile}}: The Page History on the Quotes/MarySue page doesn't seem to exist, but I'd still like to nominate whoever put down these lyrics. It's just ''spot-on'':
->''I am everything you want, I am everything you need,''\\
''I am everything inside of you that you wish you could be.''\\
''I say all the right things, at exactly the right time,''\\
''But I mean nothing to you, and I don't know why...''
-->-- '''Vertical Horizon''', ''Everything You Want''
----
{{Cidolfas}}: For whoever added this line in CanadianHistory (again, page history doesn't go back far enough):
March 30, 1968: Celine Dion is born. We're sorry.
----
Thinks Too Much: One for whoever made the following entries under YouKnowYouReadTooMuchTVTropesWhen... (the part about your iPod playlist titles.)
---> Another is titled PokeThePoodle, and you're not sure how it got there.
---> You refuse to even think about how you ended up with a playlist entitled MoralEventHorizon.
Oh, and a note of thanks to whoever made SlidingScaleLongName an alternate title for... I'm not typing it.
{{Cassius335}}: That would be SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism ("Cut and Paste" is your friend).
AMereServantOfGod: [[MinorInjuryOverreaction Yeah, well, maybe we don't wanna cut and paste, huh?!]] [[BerserkButton Maybe we're already cutting and pasting something, huh?!]] [[BewareTheNiceOnes Maybe some of us prefer to type, but don't want to type that much, you think?!]] [[{{Metaphorgotten}} AND MAYBE THE FISH COCKTAIL]] [[UnusualEuphemism WITH A SIDE OF CANADIAN KITTENS ON A TUESDAY]] [[TooMuchInformation THAT CAN'T SHAVE ITSELF WITHOUT]] [[HanlonsRazor THIS BABY]] [[TakeThat UNTIL YOU FALL DOWN OFF A SKYSCRAPER AND BREAK YOUR FALL WITH YOUR]] [[WhoseLineIsItAnyway ENORMOUS CREDENZA]] [[SpoonyBard YOU SPOONY BARD!!!]] [[{{Angrish}} MELOMIE IN THE MORNING SUN GRASHALK TIM TANGERS AND THEIR]] [[DrSeuss ZOOB-ZOOBLERS AND]] [[MoreDakka EVEN MORE KITTENS]] [[MemeticMutation CHUCK NORRIS SAUCE]] [[ItGotWorse AND THEN THE UNIVERSE EXPLODES!!!!!]]
[[ShoutOut Of course, that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.]]
{{Egak}}: [=MoW=] to AMereServantOfGod.
{{Cassius335}} (@ AMereServantOfGod): "I have a very simple question: What the fuck are you talking about?" (Hugh Dennis, MockTheWeek)
The original poster is thankful for the vehement championing, but [[WeCouldHaveAvoidedAllThis you could have just said]] "Have you ever heard of [[SelfDemonstratingArticle Self Demonstrating Made Of Win Posts?"]]
AMereServantOfGod (@Cassius335): You know what, I don't know either. [[FalseReassurance Move along, folks, nothing to see here...]]
----
ROBRAM89: A point to whoever fixed the unsightly redlink atop the GeekReferencePool page by making a page for RevengeOfTheNerds (or fixing the link, not certain which).
----
{{sgrunt}}: To {{kor}} and {{Lemurian}}, who put together this entertainingly {{Pot Hole}}d transcription on {{Combos}}:
* [[JoJosBizarreAdventure MUDA DA!]] ''[[RapidFireFisticuffs MUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDAMUDA!]] [[CallingYourAttacks ZA WARUDO!]]'' [[TimeStandsStill Toki wa tomare!]] [[AudibleSharpness (kaching! swish-swish-swish)]] [[PreMortemOneLiner Soshite toki wa ugokidasu]].

----
Whoever put the Saturn V picture on the CrowningMomentOfAwesome page, thank you. It's perfect.
AMereServantOfGod: Seconded. And, just in case it's possible for one person to do it, I'll third it too.
----
{{Cidolfas}}: To whoever added the first quote at the top of the {{Plagiarism}} page (history doesn't seem to go back that far). It took me a few seconds before getting the joke. Kudos!
ShayGuy: I love that tag.
{{Cidolfas}}: And, unfortunately, someone has gone and made the joke much more obtruse. (It used to just have a - as the source of the quote). Too lazy to change it back, though, and not interested in an edit war.
----
the grene kni3t: To LEXicon712 for the footnote on the image caption in DidNotDoTheResearch.
----
tennessean: One MadeOfWin to {{occono}} for the coupon image in '''''this very page!'''''
----
{{Inkblot}}: To whoever made a page for TheMagicBullet.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Thanks, EtherealMutation, for filling up the actual {{Cliche}} page. It was kind of odd that a site about fictional media didn't actually have a page about them until recently.
----
Curtmack: To Servitor_2152, for the image caption on OcularGushers.
----
PaulA: The third paragraph of SuperheroParadox (by {{Meta4}}, I think?) is Made of Win. I read "But underneath the surface, the real cause of this is a cabal of extradimensional intelligences", and laughed. Then I read the rest of the sentence...
----
{{Frisko}}: One to {{Inkblot}} for his/her explanation as to why someone in WMG/DoctorWho must be be a Time Lord.
{{Inkblot}}: That was...quick. Thanks, though!
----
{{Neep}}: One to whoever added that awesome page image to HighClassGlass. Love it!
{{Haven}}: Glad you like it!
----
{{whitetigah}}: One to UnknownTroper @ 87.127.17.167 for taking the lines I've been stealthily adding over the past few weeks to ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' (all repetitions of "Kyon-kun, denwa~ / We've entered an endless recursion of time" but the first one) and adding the potholes.
----
CountDorku: One to LLSmoothJ (and anyone else involved; I don't have time to check all of them) for all of the Laconic descriptions of the "You Fail X Forever" tropes. For anyone who hasn't seen them, each one basically goes,
-->SUBJECT DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY!\\
[-[[YouFailSubjectForever GOODNIGHT!]]-]
----
ROBRAM89: I'm sure it's been mentioned before, but the existence of ThePenisMightier (see the real page, ThePenIsMightier) is hilarious. It's too bad AnAlbumCover is too vague to make a trope out of.
{{Inkblot}}: I remember that name from the BiggusDickus YKTTW. I'm glad to see some troper gave it a home, even if it's just as a joke.
{{Haven}}: So are you giving the pmwiki software a MadeofWin point for working that way? Or are you giving Rothul one for adding that pothole at the bottom?
JohnnyE: Personally I want to see a {{Psychotherapist}} trope, just for the options PsychoTherapist and PsychoTheRapist. Or perhaps just go for the ArrestedDevelopment ShoutOut with "{{Analrapist}}" (a cross between an analyst and a therapist, of course). Oh, and there's now a [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=vmkabdowmuaoj4b6yb62dlbc&page=1# 1 Fun With Wiki Words forum game]] by the way.
----
{{Medinoc}}: Has somebody mentioned yet the... traumatizing pic from HardGay?
{{Inkblot}}: ''You will never get that image out of your head.''
{{thatother1dude}}: Well, that explains how the damn things [[HollywoodDensity weighed 73 pounds]].
----
{{Earnest}}: If I could direct your attention to this bit of banter in an example of EqualOpportunityEvil, I'm sure you'll agree that UT 87.127.17.167 and MatthewTheRaven deserve a MOW point.
** Is being a Samurai counted as a disability these days?
*** Yes. He's in a SpaceWestern. He's legally GenreBlind, and any reasonable government would have issued him a troping-eye dog.
ScudEast: That's ''very'' nice. Was I the only one who assumed it referred to the Operative from ''{{Serenity}}'' until I clicked the link?
ThatOther1Dude: I figured it might have had ''something'' to do with ''{{Firefly}}''.
MatthewTheRaven: The Operative is a space ninja, fighting against space cowboys and cannibalistic space pirates. The classic triumvirate of pirate-ninja-cowboy. But thanks. I just wish I'd been keeping track of these.
----
Mizaru: QuantumMariahCareyProblem, in its entirety. If I had to choose a single greatest page on this wiki, that would definitely be a serious candidate.
{{Inkblot}}: * claps*
tennessean: Sorry to rain on your parade, but I nominated that like several months to a year back. Still, it's an awesome article!
----
{{Wolfgirl44}}: I would like to give a MOW for whoever is responsible for this line on RunningGag: "Alternatively, a Running Gag is what you do on the way to the toilet after the joke has been repeated too often." That was the most laughing I've done in a while.
----
{{Earnest}}: One well earned MOW to {{Lizuka}} for the... err... "picture" in EmptyRoomPsych.
----
{{fleb}}: SusanDavis wins for the RealLife example of ChandlersLaw.
----
{{Sneebs}: I wish to nominate the image used for LethalJokeCharacter. [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/oshgfp_resize.jpg Just look at it!]] Funny, ddynamic and effectively illustrates the concept oh-so-well. I approve!
InkkiBookman: Heheheh, a CMOA for Aquaman? whatever will they think of next?
{{Inkblot}}: I think what InkkiBookman's ''trying'' to say (that phrase really should have a page on here) is that someone else already nominated that picture.
----
{{Jesin}}: Here's one for whoever potholed "[[MindScrew pure functional languages]]" on the MultiCoreProcessor page.
----
AGuy: A MadeOfWin to whoever got the picture for HaveAGayOldTime, I just couldn't stop laughing.
----
{{Gemmifer}}: zeroplusalpha for: "{{Tearjerker}}: All of great and ruinous loves, few are greater or more ruinous than great and ruinous kung fu love."
(From the {{Wuxia}} entry.) So true.
{{Haven}}: I hope the {{engrish}} wasn't part of the joke, because if so I just went and ruined it.
zeroplusalpha: [[strike: It ''was'' part of the joke. But it's back in its original form now.]] I just went through the page history; it was a mistake, I must have been typing in a hurry, I don't normally write with that degree of inaccuracy. Your edit stands. Oh, and a big "thank you" to Gemmifer. ^_^

Deuxhero:Made of win to 92.2.5.204 for this bit in {{Natter}}
** ThisTroper likes waffles
I personally added the proceeding bits, but that definitlly surpased what I did.
----
Fixed ''that'' message! tennessean:
[[spoiler:Still great, though.]] Don't believe his lies--this was already nominated for a MadeOfWin! {{Haven}}:
Seconded. ScudEast:
Fixed your message. Sceboal:
Genius. Designing a page in complete reverse order based around a movie going in complete reverse order? A win goes out to whomever designed the {{Memento}} page. Clendy82:

RadicalTaoist: Props to {{Hanz}} for the clever "restart" button pothole in the [[LaconicWiki Laconic]] entry to [[Laconic/IWannaBeTheGuy I Wanna Be The Guy]]. Reminds me of exactly what happen whenever I restarted in that game!
----
InsanityPrelude: I laughed out loud when I saw the name of NiceJobBreakingItHerod. Who came up with that one?
SomeSortOfTroper: [[http://www.zshare.net/audio/63281629a1301607/ This says]] sgamer82.
----
SilentHunter: One to all those who improved the ''RedStormRising'' entry.
* {{Taeraresh}}: Seconded. Excellent summary of the book, and a well-done listing of tropes.
----
{{Dinru}}: Go to DescribeTopicHere. Scroll down to the indexes. The top index... look to the right. Go ahead, I'll wait. B
Basically, the link on the index bar at the bottom says, linking to MemeticMutation.
-->Yo dawg, we heard you like descriptions of topics, so we put an example in your example, so you can get a topic described to you while a topic is described to
Made. Of. Win. [[JustAddBitch Bitches]].
Thatother1dude: [[strike:Is the fact that that part is repeated part of the joke? Anyway, how the hell did you--]] OK, now I see how that works.
----
RySenkari: To whoever made this brilliantly prescient comment about the current state of The Weather Channel (and everything I hate about it):
-->The worst thing about this is that most destructive weather occurs in the evening hours. Need to see if the damaging winds and storms are headed your way? Too bad! Watch this documentary on Peruvian mudslides instead!
{{Rothul}}: Not that it isn't accurate to say that weather channels should focus on the current weather, and, as I'm no meteorologist I would find it a learning experience to be corrected, but shouldn't the various types of weather, destructive or otherwise, be spaced out relatively equally across all times of day, vis a vis, time zones? Or is it that weather in the evening is more destructive because darkness makes it harder to respond?
tennessean: Severe storms tend to happen in the afternoon and evening hours because the air, having absorbed more of the Sun's energy, is more energetic. The low sunlight of the evening hours, in conjunction with the massive amout of cloud cover, make it hard to spot oncoming disasterous weather (e.g., hail and tornadoes) unless you look when lightning is illuminating the area, and even then it's a (''very'' dangerous) crapshoot.
{{Rothul}}: Thank you! Now I know! AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle!
tennessean: Thank you! And it helps that I made meteorology my major, as I'm fascinated by severe weather!

NielJacoby: To whoever put this in RunningGag:
-->I shink dat whoever wrote this exshample is one fiiine shpeshimen of human beer. Bing. Thinggy. Anywaysh, I shalute dem, and bid thee a fond adidas. Adiya. Byebye. * dies*
Such a great response to the wall of {{egregious}}ness.
SchizoTechnician: Shank you. You're too kingd. Reaally.
----
HarpieSiren: Too whoever wrote this exchange in SweetAndSourGrapes:
* But it shouldn't matter what he looks like. The prince (and everyone else in the castle) becoming human again is his reward.
* EXACTLY. Oh my GOD, I am so glad somebody finally got that being restored to his true form is his reward, not hers.
Simply because it's refreshing to see someone not miss the point of that part of BeautyAndTheBeast ''so completly'' and have a kneejerk "BrokenAesop" reaction, as Tropers seem wont to do.
{{Vifetoile}}: Seconded.
----
SparkyLurkdragon: TsundeRay wins forever for the Laconic SuperSmashBros. entry.
----
rsm109: MadeOfWin to whoever potholed 1453 to IstanbulNotConstantinople on FlyingBroomstick. My inner history geek (and not-so-inner ''EuropaUniversalis'' [[JustOneMoreLevel addict]]) takes his hat off to you.
LadyJafaria: ...Even knowing the Ottomans didn't automatically rename Constantinople, that's still made of win.
----
{{Freiberg}}: A MadeOfWin to {{Momonga}} for a lightbulb joke. How many tropers does it take to change a light bulb?
Well, first they have to remove the lampshade...
@/{{Koveras}}: And another one from me, since it cracked me up. :D
----
{{G-Mon}}: A MadeOfWin to {{thatother1dude}} for the {{Pot Hole}}d HotSkittyOnWailordAction on NoodleImplements.
Thatother1Dude: Thank you. Funnily enough, just yesterday I remembered writing that took a while to remember how.
----
GameGuruGG: MadeOfWin for {{alliterator}} for [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=4uuu70hi3uhjqlrj7ks13mfn&page=1# 12 The Ballad Of Big Naming]] I'm not sure of the [=MOW=] rules for forum posts, but he deserves it!
----
{{HeartBurn Kid}}: A double-frosted [=MoW=] with sprinkles for the person who inserted the ''anti''-Rickroll into TheJimmyHartVersion, on the Crono Trigger example.
{{Micah}}: That would be me. Thanks!
----
{{Kizor}}:A warm [=MoW=] to the people responsible for making the metaphors in DyingLikeAnimals work for its entire length. This may have to include Aesop the Greek.
{{Earnest}}: I can only take 1/22nd of the MOW point, but thanks! Check out the [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=jdfd5mpv&trope=DyingLikeAnimals YKTTW]] and [[DyingLikeAnimalsDiscussion discussion]] if you want to get an idea of the effort that went into it. Personally, I like that bit in the Termites entry where they never notice [[TheGrimReaper the aardwolf]] coming.
----
MrDeath: MadeOfWin to the unknown troper at 96.246.3.181 who added "When the oracle said that Belkar should savor his next birthday cake, shouldn't fund his IRA, and that he'll draw his last breath before the end of the year, ''he meant that Belkar will die''." to the OrderOfTheStick [[WMG/OrderOfTheStick WMG page]]. After all of the wishful thinking [=WMGs=] about convoluted ways Belkar would survive, it was ''very'' refreshing to see that. ''Thank you'', troper, whoever you are.
!!! [[DarthWiki/{{Ptitle0oqcngiv}} ~]]: I'm glad you enjoyed it. Although, if you look closely, though I may be [[MysteriousWatcher unknown]], I was indeed logged in.
----
{{Grimace}}: One very groany-worthy but perfectly placed MOW to {{Thande}} for his post on DiscreditedMeme, at the very end of the bit about no longer quoting MontyPythonAndTheHolyGrail:
** Does that mean [[CompletelyMissingThePoint the parroting has ceased to be]]?
{{Inkblot}}: ...
[[BlatantLies I hate you.]]
{{Niel Jacoby}}: And one [[http://xkcd.com/391/ Made Of Win The Game]] point to us all. Divide it however you like.
----
{{nine}}: I'd like to propose a MadeOfWin for whoever wrote this line in ThirtyXanatosPileup:
-->Of course, it's quite easy to tell who's side Jack is on. [[ChaoticNeutral He's on Jack's side.]]
----
@/{{Koveras}}: I'm probably not the first one to do so but I'd like to award a(nother?) MOW to the author of the poem parts of SoYouWantTo/BeTheNextWilliamShakespeare. I enjoyed them so much, I had to read them out loud to savor the sound. ^^
{{Nightsky}}: Seconded, plus I just noticed that the title quote is very nearly a sonnet! (And a Shakespearian sonnet at that.) Just a ''bit'' of tweaking, maybe... I'm not the poem's original author, but I might have a go later. Erm. If that sort of thing is okay with the poet...
{{Vifetoile}}: * beams* Yes, it is ''very'' okay. I am the author of the poetry (and most of the prose) on that page - most of it was done back when I was still an Unknown Troper. Thank you both so much, and feel free to tweak it to make it better. :) Thanks again!
----
{{Thnikkafan}}: Made of Win to whoever posted this on the GodModeSue page.
** ThePowerOfLove does not excuse beating the shit out of a living tank with your bare hands.
----
{{Haven}}: From the LaconicalListOfSubtleTropeDistinctions:
-->PreAssKickingOneLiner: "I'm gonna kick your ass."
-->PreMortemOneLiner: "I'm kicking your ass."
-->BondOneLiner: "I kicked your ass."
-->QuipToBlack: "Looks like this man... got his ass kicked."
{{Vifetoile}}: Seconded.
{{Deuxhero}}: I added the Grissom/QuipToBlack one (someone else wrote the other 3), so 1/4 [=MoW=] credit? edit:Checked, it seems it was in the orignal YKTTW by JonnyD (not in one of the replys, so I assume he wrote it)
{{Haven}}: Ahh, go ahead and take a full [=MoW=] =D
Sceboal: Sure, go ahead and take the full MoW. Wait, let me rephrase that, YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!
{{Freiberg}}: I definitely agree here. Take a full Made of win.
----
K.o.R: Made Of Win to whoever wrote the Bowdlerise page. I got a question right on University Challenge thanks to TV Tropes!
SilentHunter: Thanks for that. I initially created it, but others added to it, so all the big people should get a MOW for that.
{{Deuxhero}}: Requires more info.
----
{{pagad}}: Made of Win to whoever re-wrote the '''[[BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED]]''' page.
{{Inkblot}}: Thanks, but I really recommend splitting the page like we did with TheToblerone: One normal page and one BRIAN BLESSIFIED. THE CONSTANT ALL CAPS make the page difficult to read.
{{Grimace}}: Good god. I mean, I concur with the MOW, but now I have [[BrianBlessed BRIAN BLESSED]] SHOUTING IN MY BRAIN. * ahem*
----
{{Haven}}: Made of Win to {{MrD}} for this little burst of nostalgia in TroperTales/TroperTales: "solved a mystery... and rewrote history.... [[DuckTales TROPER TALES]]! Wooooo-oooh!"
----
Andygal: A Win to the anonymous individual who edited the entry about Argus Hundred-Eye in ExtraEyes with the following "That's as many as ten tens, AndThatsTerrible" Got a snicker out of me thanks.
----
DragonQuestZ: Win to Citizen for the SugarWiki picture (and some to inkblot for touching up the picture to be visible on darker monitors).
{{Inkblot}}: Sugar glowy pastel Vader [[color:red:&# 9829;]]
{{Joysweeper}}: Using the Hello Kitty Vader? Huh. You know, I heard it was photoshopped from an [[http://www.thedentedhelmet.com/forums/showthread.php?t=13343 all-white Vader suit]]. Just felt like throwing out some trivia.
----
{{Garfman}}: I am surprised and delighted how quickly the OlympusMons picture was changed to the appropriate VGCats image.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: A MadeOfWin to DragonQuestZ for NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer, an excellent substitute for the original page that makes it actually trope-worthy. Kudos also to whoever rescued the fitting examples.
DragonQuestZ: It just made sense that if some people in the show say the line then it was an actual trope. Now I know what it feels like to make a viable replacement card in MagicTheGathering for a GameBreaker card.
{{Haven}}: I believe that analogy is worth a quarter of a win all on its own. (It was going to be half, but then it was {{nerf}}ed.)
----
{{Inkblot}}: One for whoever wrote this suggestion in {{Troll}}:
* Make Bella a HardGay ScaryBlackMan who rapes puppies for fun and manhandles Edward every night. Blame it on vampirefucker fuck-magic. Change her name to Kareemson. We could go on and on about the Canon Defilement possibilities for Twilight.
----
JBridge: One Win to whoever came up with the current picture for {{Gorn}}. Five bucks says it's {{SugarWiki/Matrix}}.
DragonQuestZ: It was MaverickHunter4024, and the bastard [[BloodierAndGorier stole my idea]].
----
cg12345: I'd like to nominate whoever came up with the idea of the {{Trivia}} category. It's a great compromise that gets rid of the overused running gag that I Am Not Making This Up degenerated into, and still allows us to preserve all the juicier bits from it.
thatother1dude: Are all of the old examples from I Am Not Making This Up supposed to be moved if there's a page for them?
cg12345: I'm not really sure, but all the Trivia pages I've looked at seem to be sections from the erstwhile IANMTU section with the Natter removed.
{{Haven}}: At least [[Trivia/OrderOfTheStick one isn't]]. [[spoiler:I always wanted a place to put the bit about Elan being an FF6 cosplayer, but it wasn't exactly a trope, and it's exactly something someone would say IANMTU after.
-----
{{Haven}}: One [=MoW=] to whoever came up with the caption in LawyerFriendlyCameo. "Ceci n'est pas un Copyright Infringement."
----
Curtmack: From [[{{WMG/LuckyStar}} Lucky Star]] WildMassGuessing, suggesting that Konata and Kagami are an official couple.:
* They've got a PortmanteauCoupleName.
** ...Konami?
*** We also refer to them as "Contra Code."
@/{{Koveras}}: I'm responsible for the first line, so I'll just snatch a third of that MOW. ;)
----
{{Master Hand}}: Who's responsible for turning the bottom half of the picture on the {{Candle Jack}} page black? Granted, it'd be funnier if it was white, bu
{{Inkblot}}: That was me. Oh, and thanks for the suggestion! I'll turn it white now.
ScudEast: The joke was present in the original image, which fades out at the bottom.
{{Schrau}}: Yeah, I'm pretty sure the original pic looked like a image file that had got corrupted during download.
----
GameGuruGG: Did anyone give a MadeOfWin for whoever wrote the picture caption to FacePalm? I imagined it sounding EXACTLY like in the [=HeadOn=] Commercial and it made me laugh out loud. No MadeOfWin for that Kyon picture on that page, because it goofed up by using face instead of forehead.
WillyFourEyes: Why, thank you. And I'm terribly sorry for making you think of that meme.
GameGuruGG: The commercials needs mocking and snarking. Yes, they do.
----
AndyWaltfeld: A very special thanks to {{Truec}} for helping me rediscover the little bundle of crass humor and dated {{GameFAQs}} memes we like to call {{RFU}}.
Truec: Well somebody had to do it. I'm just glad someone came in after me and rewrote the page so it didn't suck.
----
Thatother1dude: OK, I know I just did one, but I still have to say something about whoever came up with the title "ActualPacifist".
tennessean: Although I didn't come up with that one, it reminded me that we need a "BadassPacifist" page.
{{Madrugada}}: I think ActualPacifist was {{Fedora Pirate}}'s.
----
Thatother1Dude: two things from DarthWiki/WarpThatAesop:
# ANY PROBLEM can be solved with LIBERAL APPLICATION OF CAPITAL LETTERS. (it's funnier if read what lead up to it)
# Darth Wiki Warp That Aesop page: It's okay to distort the truth and promote bad morality if it entertains you.
----
T-Jack: One to Korora for the last pothole in this example from {{Unwinnable}}:
* [[RuleOfThree Sierra Sierra Sierra ]] ''[[RoomFullOfCrazy Sierra Sierra]]'' [[MadnessMantra SIERRA]] [[ThisIsSPARTA SIERRA]] '''[[LargeHam SIERRA]] [[RunningGag SIERRA]] ''[[AxCrazy ARARARRRGGGH]][[{{Discworld/Maskerade}} !!!!!]]'''''
----
{{Lurkerbunny}}: A MoW to the unknown Troper who added the hilarious respose to this entry on the LiteCreme page:
* In Canada, buying "maple butter" is definitely way better than buying "map-o-spread".
** "Map-o-spread"? Are you sure that's a food and not a device for automatically unfolding and displaying maps?
If I hadn't just swallowed my drink seconds before reading that, I would have needed a new keyboard.
----
Sceboal: A MoW to whoever made the laconic page for Laconic/MagicalGirlLyricalNanoha.
AMereServantOfGod: So, wait...Magcal Girl Lyrical Nanoha is all of television squeezed into one show?
{{prescience}}: @Sceboal: Thanks. Hooray, my first [=MoW=]!
@AMereServantOfGod: I don't quite understand what you're saying...
@/{{Koveras}} to AMereServantOfGod: Yup, ''Nanoha'' is just that awesome. [[HypeAversion Go watch it already.]] ;)
----
{{Redkun}}: A MoW to the person who described ''LastActionHero'' as "one of the few movies whose genre is accurately described as "Other".
----
{{Kizor}}: A thank-you to the presently unknown namer of DiscardAndDraw. There's no YKTTW, so it might be older than dirt. I still laughed.
{{Micah}}: I could have sworn I remembered reading a YKTTW for that page, but I can't find it. Maybe it was a rename discussion?
-----
{{Sparky Lurkdragon}}: A long-overdue MoW to whoever added "[[SkiesOfArcadia Ramirez. Ramirez. Ramirez.]]" to PsychoSupporter. Makes me laugh to this day even though I love the guy, or possibly because I do.
----
Tapioca: A solid gold MoW to 71.62.164.116 for this example of MichaelBay's SignatureStyle
* When MichaelBay wakes up in the morning, he moves quickly to get out of his exploding bed, before eating his cereal and tossing out the exploding box. He drives to the studio, jumps out of his exploding car, and then speaks to some dangerous looking government agents, military troops, and disproportionately attractive computer experts, who all promptly explode. He then takes a gun that fires explosions and has a duel with Megan Fox, who also explodes, and then throws away the exploding gun. Finally, he finishes a hard day's work by riding into the sunset on a helicopter. Which then explodes.
----
L: {{Micah}}, for selling off those extra [=YKTTWs=] in time for the financial new year.
{{Micah}}: Thanks! I highly recommend this as a way of wasting potentially near-infinite amounts of time.
----
: The sugar joke on SanityHasAdvantages. Heh.
----
{{Medinoc}}: One MOW to trouserwearingbarbarian, for the name TookALevelInDumbass. I almost spat my panini byte out launghing.
:I used that a long time ago on TallDarkAndSnarky (blackadder example). It links to TookALevelInBadass because it predates the trope.
----
FuseNevis: I just want to thank everyone who made the {{Prototype}} page into what it is today, since it was the first page I created. So yeah, thanks guys!
----
Curtmack: To gkong3, for the last line in this exchange on MagicSkirt:
* There were some comments about Yuki Nagato's fight against [[spoiler:Ryoko Asakura]] in ''SuzumiyaHaruhi'' about how her acrobatics never actually led to any panty-flashes.
** Likewise, Haruhi's dropkick of the Computer Club President with nary of glimpse of her panties also fits this trope.
** Because of the nature of both girls (especially Yuki), this is more "Powered by Microsoft SQL" Skirt...
----
{{sgrunt}}: to {{thatother1dude}} for the picture on IncrediblyLamePun.
Thatother1dude: Thank you. I myself would like to thank [[ImageBoards /co/]] for the beyond cringe-inducing deluge of puns which warranted someone to post that pic.
----
{{Haven}}: One to {{Egak}} for the caption on RandomNumberGod: ''The only people who should roll dice are those who are prepared to roll a 1.'' Supremely badass, funny, and {{shoutout}}acular, and I'll have to use it the next time I game.
{{Donomni}}: Oh, wow, that's an awesome reference.
{{Egak}}: Thanks. I've been wondering if anyone had gotten the full scope of the joke, though. [[spoiler:The picture it's captioning is the RNG monster from ''BillyVsSNAKEMAN'', that you fight with an ability you can only make stronger by doing the ''CodeGeass'' parody plotline.]]
{{Haven}}: Oh, nice!
----
{{Dinru}}: One to the people who {{Entry Pimp}}'d the page for YouHaveToBurnTheRope. Seriously that page is epic especially considering the game it's of. Another for whoever thought making the DarthWiki page for {{Eversion}}.
{{Medinoc}}: Speaking of ''{{Eversion}}'', I think we could make the Darth page even better by replacing the picture by a picture of the exact same location as the normal page, only in world X-7 or X-8.
ShayGuy: Except you can't everse that far on that level. So we'd have to cut and paste sprites and assemble it from scratch, unless {{Zaratustra}} lends a hand.
Sceboal: I believe that both of these have already been done.
{{Donomni}}: I already got [=MoW'd=] down for the ''{{Eversion}}'' bit, but thanks anyways!
L: You can make it so that you can evert anywhere you want by changing these lines in scripts/main.rb in Eversion's directory:
[[folder:Secret coding skills]]
Replace this:
@@if (getButton(4)>0 && $glimmer!=0) then\\
setButton(4,0);\\
$darkness+ =($glimmer<=>0);@@
with this:
@@if (getButton(4)>0) then\\
setButton(4,0);\\
$darkness+ =1;\\
$darkness=0 if ($darkness>7);@@
[[/folder]]
ShayGuy: Thanks. [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eversion1-7-cropped.png Take]] your [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/eversion1-8-cropped.png pick]], then.
{{Medinoc}}: Thank ''you''. I put the 1-7 pic, because I think the tiles are more recognizable.
----
Curtmack: To SAMAS, for the image caption on PlayboyBunny. I literally lol'd.
* Yay me!
----
{{sgrunt}}: One for team WikiMagic - especially L, {{RobinZimm}}, and UnknownTroper 72.66.95.69 - for [[strike:at least tripling]] almost ''quintupling'' the length of the list of ExampleAsAThesis in the two days that it's existed.
DragonQuestZ: Yes, that's one from me too. I didn't think it would grow so fast when I ykttw'ed it. So I guess it was an index many tropers were just waiting for.
----
{{SAMAS}}: Related to the one below, to Unknown Troper 68.164.2.138 for puting VindicatedByHistory at the bottom of the article. It brought a tear to my eye.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Many, many thanks to SapphireAgain for the modification of MichaelJackson's example in FallenCreator. Even if it was in reaction to AlasPoorScrappy, changing the original's disdainful tone to a more fitting tragic tone does a great service to the man.
----
MrEtaoinShrdlu: The "little anecdote" on FastEddie's page was perhaps not quite the awesome-funny kind of stuff in most of these examples, but its conclusion is rather inspirational. Perhaps we could add a link to it on WelcomeToTVTropes.
----
{{Haven}} for adding the very last bit in the following description from DangerouslyGenreSavvy (italics mine):
* [Azula] has had occasional moments of genre-blindness, but learns from them. She initially had a RedshirtArmy, but instead traded it for a QuirkyMinibossSquad after one [[SurroundedByIdiots screws up her plan]], and after she tried to go after Aang [[LeaveHimToMe alone]], her next attempt was accompanied by her brother, an entire squad of secret police, ''and someone voiced by Clancy Brown''.
{{Haven}}: Thanks! Never pays to underestimate dudes voiced by that guy, even Batman found that out the hard way.
{{Rothul}}: Of course, in the end, said dude voiced by Clancy Brown had the unfortunate luck to oppose Azula when she had someone voiced by Mark Hammill waiting in the wings.
{{Haven}}: Mm. And the good guys only escaped thanks to someone voiced by Mako[[hottip:* :''que en paz ensconce'']].
----
Thatother1dude: The pic for ''DarkerThanBlack''.
----
WillyFourEyes: Anon at 68.81.139.76 gets a Win point for the picture in AmbiguouslyGay.
----
{{whitetigah}}: One for Sceboal, for adding the final line in TroperTales/MoralGuardians.
----
Thatother1Dude: The "[[{{Fictionary}} Hrair]] [[ThirtyXanatosPileup Xanatos Pileup]]" bit on the ''WatershipDown'' article.
ShayGuy: [[MadeOfWinArchiveEarly2009 Already done.]]
----
{{Medinoc}}: One for whoever renamed XanatosFuneral. Very clever.
InkkiBookman: And it kinda rhymes too.
{{Medinoc}}: Why do you think I said it was clever? ;-)
Thatother1Dude: From TheOtherWiki, "In Greek mythology, Thánatos (in Greek, &# 920;&# 940;&# 957;&# 945;&# 964;&# 959;&# 962; - "Death") was the dæmon personification of Death"
{{Haven}}: And now, [[DontExplainTheJoke he has come for this joke.]]
[[AC:I will treasure it.]]
----
JapaneseTeeth: One for whoever added the picture to CounterAttack. It's the funniest thing I've seen all day.
----
{{alliterator}}: One for whoever added this hilarious example to BigLippedAlligatorMoment:
* At the end of the Japanese version of ''Frankenstein Conquers the World'' (does anyone expect this sentence to end well?) the monster gets randomly attacked by a [[NaughtyTentacles giant octopus]] [[MisplacedWildlife wandering through]] ''[[UndergroundMonkey the forest]]''.
:Is there an MST3K-version of this film that I can watch?
----
{{Inkblot}}: One for all the preps who [[WikiMagic Wiki Magic'd]] the MyImmortal page.
InkkiBookman: Just the picture itself deserves a Win.
{{DracMonster}}: I grabbed it it from the encyclopedia dramatica entry on it, don't know who made it.
----
{{Haven}}: One to vifetoile for "{{Trope-Tan}} and the StartOfDarkness". This should totally be canon. Especially Wikimedea. And the use of [=TWoP=]-kun.
{{Vifetoile}}: * Does a happy dance* Thank you very much! (I didn't invent Wikimedea, but I kind of wish I did.) (Between [=TWoP=]-kun and Wikipe-tan, Trope-Tan is going to be very busy...) While I'm here, I'd like to start a round of applause for sgrunt, who tirelessly fixed all the pot holes that were in the original entry. * bows* Thanks, sgrunt, and thank you, Haven. :)
{{sgrunt}}: Hooray! I did something appreciated!
@/{{Koveras}}: And I invented Wikimedea. Do I get a fraction of MOW, too? ^^;
----
JackButler: To Michael, for MadeFromRealGirlScouts.
Michael: Thanks. And thanks to [[AddamsFamily Wednesday]] for such a potent title that I had to suggest it.
----
ThatOther1Dude: Whoever wrote the MichaelMcConnohie article.
----
Sceboal: A Made of Win to everyone who tried to comfort other people in the TroperTales page of TroperTales/AwfulTruth. While to me it seems like they're not really doing a good job at it, the fact that they try is just [[CrowningMomentOfHeartWarming heart warming.]]
----
{{Zeke}}: One to {{Chariset}} for "Record Of Loudness War", the trope name I most wish I'd thought of. Painfully clever.
* Thankee, kind sir. It just goes to show that the best puns are the ones you throw out without really thinking about them.
----
{{Antheia}}: A point to whoever subtly made TheMockbuster a SelfDemonstratingArticle (sort of).
Sagaril: Ohoho! I see what they did there! Clever. Very much seconded.
{{sgrunt}}: Thirded - subtle and clever all in one.
SilentHunter: Fourthed. Especially the last line of the intro.
DragonQuestZ: That was a joint effort by many of us, but I take credit for the last lines, to make the fit with the other blue links.
FreezairForALimitedTime: I threw in a couple when I rewrote it, and edited a couple others so they sounded more "natural." So I guess that's, what, a tenth of a point?
----
{{Haven}}: One point to whoever's responsible for the BoobyTrap example in OrderOfTheStick.[[color:fuchsia:[[hottip:* :I prepared Explosive Runes this morning.]]]]
----
Src9: Points to {{herczy}} for this:
UnresolvedSexualTension:
* Neon Genesis Evangelion is chock full of this. Of course, it doesn't really go anywhere.
** Like School Rumble.
** This is even... ehm... handwaved at the beginning of End Of Evangelion, If You Know What I Mean.
{{Medinoc}}: Wow. Seconded, so much.
----
ShayGuy: {{alchixinren}} for observing that the ChineseLanguage has LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters.
{{Cukeman}}: Oh, that's ''[[IncrediblyLamePun terrible]]''!
{{Haven}}: Terrib''ly awesome'' morelike.
FreezairForALimitedTime: ''Ahahahaha.''
Sceboal: ''Italics.''
{{Antheia}}: Don't forget AlternateCharacterReading. I don't know if I should groan or giggle.
----
MrEtaoinShrdlu: I nominate whoever removed my little "addition" to the [[TheStinger stinger]] on Crowning Moment / CrowningMoment/RealLife. Even though I put it there. Some kind of wordless meta-ShutUpHannibal.
-----
@/{{Koveras}}: I don't think ''TVTropesTheWebcomic'' has been awarded a MOW yet, so here's one to all contributors (excluding yours truly) at once. I totally love the comic [[spoiler:and would like to see it published somewhere, already]].
{{Inkblot}}: I don't get it. Webcomics are normally more common than $20 hookers. Why hasn't anyone drawn a single strip?
{{Malchus}} @Koveras - Actually, I think it already has. IIRC, I found out about it thanks to a MOW.
@Inkblot - I actually was thinking of making pseudo-cover art for use as the page image.
ShayGuy: This is the first I've heard of it.
@/{{Koveras}}: @Malchus: I've looked through the MOW archives first and only found several [=MOWs=] for ''TV Tropes TV'' and one for ''TV Tropes RPG''... Maybe you found one of these and discovered the Webcomic via the links?
{{Malchus}}: Hm, I guess I confused one of those for it, then. Huh, Now I wonder how I did stumble across it. On another note, since this really seems to be ''{{TV Tropes The Webcomic}}'s'' first MOW after all, I heartily second it.
-----
ScudEast: Just when I thought our beloved Wiki couldn't get any geekier, the translation project moves on to include [[Qu/HomePage Quenya]]. {{Micah}} receives a [=MoW=] as the responsible party.
DragonQuestZ: Damn. When I first suggested translated pages I didn't think it would go this far. Cool.
The Jackal: And don't forget the [[AlBhed/HomePage Al Bhed Home Page]]. Made me laugh.
{{Rothul}}: The Al Bhed translation was me, but the MOW point goes to BarkleyShutUpAndJamGaiden, where I got the idea from.
@/{{Koveras}}: I wonder when the Klingon translation is gonna appear...
{{Micah}} Thanks! Anyone who knows anything about Quenya really should come nitpick my grammar; I'm not actually all that fluent.
L: If this continues any further, we're soon going to get Morse Code, [[http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/EBG13 ROT13]], [[http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/MD5 MD5]], [[http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Beatboxing Beatboxing]] and [[http://darthsanddroids.net/episodes_poetry/0001_poetry.html Poetry]] translations of pages.
{{Rothul}}: Not to mention NewSpeak, Pig Latin, Ubbi Dubbi, Simple English and Glossolalia.
{{alliterator}}: I'm sorry. [[Po/HomePage You made me do it.]] I just couldn't resist.
RadicalTaoist: No, you couldn't. That deserves a MOW of its own right there, alliterator.
{{Thnikkafan}}: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Hax/HomePage It had to be done.]] (Personally, I think it turned out to be more of a TotallyRadical version of L33tSp3ak, with a bit of FunetikAksent thrown in)
----
Negative Zero: Points to whoever made the laconic for ShinMegamiTensei redirect to NintendoHard.
L: But... that's not a very laconic page!
{{Medinoc}}: Fixed it.
DeuxHero: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Laconic/ShinMegamiTensei?action=diff That would be me]].
----
The Jackal: One for adam850 for his post in [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=t0e6qfnda8488ulqpnp6c42m&page=2 this thread]]. It's about the 12th one down.
ShayGuy: You can link to [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=t0e6qfnda8488ulqpnp6c42m&page=2# 37 individual posts]]. Just click the timestamp.
The Jackal: Didn't know that. Thanks for telling me.
{{Adam850}}: Thanks. I wasn't sure if anyone thought that was funny.
----
{{Rhainor}}: One [=MoW=] to whoever wrote this in TheBigO's trope listings:
->KudzuPlot: [[strike: High]] ''it's like a friggin' [[KatamariDamacy katamari ball]] went through an EpilepticTree orchard''.
----
AnonymousMcCartneyfan: A point to Artman40 for this entry in [[Horrible/{{Music}} Horrible/Music.]] The links to YouTube have a certain style...
* [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsT2FiajyLQ Pirated]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xI5Eo1G8QE video]] [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwBKW0kDHIQ games]] are very keen of horrible video game music.
Sceboal: Huh?
----
{{Nlpnt}}: Rothul gets an [=MoW=] for the OtherWiki reference on VaginaDentata.
Rothul: I merely put it back in after someone removed it without comment (as I too found it win worthy): Near as I can tell, RedShoe should get credit for making the joke, and {{L}} for selling it with the faux-wikipedia formatting.
Nlpnt: You can tell I don't like to check back to ''that'' page often....
----
{{Haven}}: One to MasterHand for the Laconic entry on Laconic/BeigeProse.
----
ReadingChampion: A Made of Win to all who helped mutate the ChekovsGun page. It used to be a simple Re-direction joke with three lines and a picture. But now... ''damn''.
{{Haven}}: Eh, I preferred it when it was "Ensign Chekov had a gun on StarTrek." and "Averted on {{Buffy}}" (which I added, though I took a MOW for it a while ago), but YMMV.
----
JBridge: One to RadicalTaoist for the ending line in the TroperTales page for TroperTales/ThePowerOfRock.
->Our captain informs me that the band has hit a little turbulence and we will be experiencing some mad shredding shortly. Please fasten your seatbelts and throw the horns into their fully upright and rocked position.
{{Grimace}}: Ohh that's ''good''.
{{Schrau}}: I so agree.
RadicalTaoist: \m/n(>_<)n\m/
FreezairForALimitedTime: ''Excellent!'' * Bill & Shred*
----
BlackHumor: To whoever added "Rape And Zoidberg" to DarthWiki/TropesThatWillNeverHappen, for making me actually laugh out loud.
{{Inkblot}}: Er, thanks.
{{Pinkbaron}}: And another one to whomever put "Heartwarming Moment of Rape" on the same page.
{{Grev}}: Isn't that how Luke and Laura were {{Retcon}}ned on ''GeneralHospital''? :)
----
DragonQuestZ: To SomeSortOfTroper, for pithy, but oh so accurate, picture and caption for MerchandiseDriven.
SomeSortOfTroper: Thank you. I guess we still have to see if it lasts but one utterance of "awesome" is worth more to me than a dozen "ok"s.
{{Malchus}}: While I'm sad it replaces my pic, I do agree that that's a much better pic. Seconded.
DragonQuestZ: There likely is a trope that picture fits. It's just not a proper example of that trope.
ThatOther1Dude: How about [[spoiler:OurPresidentsAreDifferent]]?
{{Malchus}}: @DragonQuestZ - Yeah, I knew it just barely fit the trope. I'm actually surprised it hung on for that long. And if no one has any objections, I may just take {{That Other 1 Dude}}'s suggestion.
----
FurikoMaru: To SilentHunter, for the caption on the EastGermany article's pic. Good on [[IncrediblyLamePun ja.]]
SilentHunter: Viele danke.
----
{{Dante668}}: To the genius responsible for using the phrase "getting groiny" to refer to the horndog camp counselors of ''Friday the 13th'' in DeathBySex. That is now my favorite euphemism for sex.
RobertBingham: That would be me. The phrase in question came from ''{{Angel}}'', in reference to how Buffy and Angel [=~Can't Have Sex, Ever~=]:
->'''Cordelia:''' ''Let me explain the lore here, okay? They suffer, they fight. That's business as usual. They get groiny with each other, the world as we know it falls apart.''
----
{{Moogi}}: From TwentyBearAsses:
The Bible. King Saul: "Sure, David, you can marry my daughter, just bring me a hundred Philistine foreskins." Worst. Quest. Ever. At least the drop rate is 100%...
* David apparently got caught up in the "farming" and brought in two hundred, by the way. Thus proving that Level Grinding and Collection Sidequest (not to mention Bragging Rights Reward!) is indeed Older Than Dirt.
Whoever wrote this deserves a nomination.
{{Medinoc}}: IIRC, it has already been nominated.
----
{{Kerrah}}: CharlesPhipps for finally making the WarcraftExpandedUniverse and several works within that 'verse their own pages. I salute you!
----
Enlong: Ronfar, for potholing {{Troperiffic}} under "Quite a lot, isn't there?" about halfway down the list of tropes in {{Adventurers}}.
ShayGuy: The ''SailorMoon'' page had that joke first.
----
Magus: Made of Win to Psychopomp for inventing the [[TroperTales/TheLoonie Belt of Bear Blasting]].
----
AmadeusWindfall: No idea who this is actually going to, but whoever copied out [[MahouSenseiNegima Hakase]]'s massive (''384 words'') speech into WhatIsThisThingYouCallLove, just to demonstrate one example, deserves a MadeOfWin for their effort.
----
{{Arilou}}: I don't know who did it, and it's really more to the original inventor, but whoever added "Narutonystark" to PortmanteauCoupleName made me laugh out loud.
Thatother1Dude: I believe that originated in TroperTales/CrackPairing.
----
Curtmack: To UnknownTroper 71.54.112.245, for this entirely accurate categorization of the TeenTitans into a FiveManBand:
---> TheHero: Robin.
---> TheLancer: Cyborg
---> TheSmartGuy: Raven
---> TheBigGuy: Starfire
---> TheChick: Beast Boy
----
SilentHunter: {{Dangermike}} for adding "Guaranteed, or your pizza's free" to the caption for ''{{NCIS}}''.
----
AndyWaltfeld: GameOver, man, Game Over. Point to Doug S. Machina for [[Laconic/MetalWolfChaos Laconic]] ''MetalWolfChaos''.
Doug S. Machina: Thank you!
----
{{Medinoc}}: One to Sparkysharps for the picture in OlderThanTheyThink.
ShayGuy: Seconded for great justice!
----
{{Malchus}}: A MOW to {{Smerf}} for the pic and potholed caption in DirtyCommunists. It made me laugh.
MasoTey: Seconded. Took me stupid long to rollover and get it, but -- bwahahahaha!
{{Smerf}}: Yes, my first MOW! I'd like to thank the Academy...
----
DrNamgge: one MadeOfWin point to CaptainCrowbar for the caption and PotHole in DoNotTouchTheFunnelCloud.
----
TheToonGeekette: An accidentally-earned [=MoW=] mention goes to 70.153.95.56, for an awesome formatting error they made on the ThatGuyWithTheGlasses page. This person added [[spoiler: TheDarkKnight]] to the spoilered part of Chester's quote on the page. However he/she/it typed it up so that it led to a non-existant page for [[spoiler: ''Citizen Kane And The Dark Knight'']].
Show of hands, who else wants to see a movie like that made? (Admittedly, I fixed it, but still...)
FreezairForALimitedTime: I say we call Hollywood ''right this second.''
ShayGuy: What's Hollywood's phone number?
{{Donomni}}: 555-867-5309.
TheToonGeekette: It's not working! All I'm getting is this really annoyed woman named Jenny...
Sceboal: A made of win to Donomni for taking my joke right out of my mind.
A story about Batman told in flashbacks about different people that met him... I think I read that Comic.
{{Idler}}: Thinking about it, Kane and Batman aren't that different. They're both filthy rich but deeply, deeply unhappy, desperately clinging onto childhood memories for their whole adult lives. ''Citizen Wayne'', anyone?
----
{{Houdini}}: Unknown Troper in Brainwashed By Emotions YKTTW. "You mean '''FlawExploitation'''? That would be a great name for a trope."
----
{{Felius}}: 98.122.150.57 for adding the link under "distant past" at 22/May in the MagikarpPower page:
*** That is somewhat justified by some of its Pokedex entries, which claim that Magikarp used to be much stronger in the [[DwarfFortress distant past]].
----
FusionDragon: A MOW to {{Haseri}} for finally making a page for GalacticCivilizations.
----
{{Fanra}}: EricDVH for the trope name for MakeMyIndexLive.
----
{{Rothul}}: Inkblot for the "Hey, that's pretty clever!" picture and caption on BuryYourGays.
{{Inkblot}}: The caption was there first. I just added the picture.
----
{{Magus}}: Made Of Win to {{Dryuu}} and MauynEign for separating and fully fleshing out the ManaKhemia page.
----
{{Smerf}}: A MOW to whoever it was that put Ken Akamatsu's deepest desire on AuthorAppeal. Also, a CrowningMomentOfFunny, in my opinion.
JapaneseTeeth: Seconded. I'm not even into BDSM and I wouldn't mind that happening to me.
----
'''{{SAMAS}}''': Sparkysharps for the picture for PerverseSexualLust.
----
Doug S. Machina: Micah, on the page for ''[[TwentyFour 24]]'':
'''This page takes place between [[YouKnowYouReadTooMuchTVTropesWhen 1.00 AM and 2.00 AM]].'''
It's 1:55am at the time of writing.
{{Micah}}: Thanks, but that wasn't me. It looks like it was SomeSortOfTroper.
SomeSortOfTroper: Yes that was me. As always it seems like the thing that I'm sure ig going to be edited away ends up getting the best praise.
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: To SchizoTechnician for the line in ''TsubasaReservoirChronicle'' under MindScrew for hitting the nail on the head in a hilarious manner:
* Not only that. After the [[spoiler:time loop set up in the Acid Tokyo arc is revealed]], the entire ''plot'' goes to hell. Or heaven. Or perhaps a small rural suburb of Detroit; things are so convoluted, nonsensical, mysterious, and confusing that ''you can't tell''.
{{SchizoTechnician}}: Thank you, my pleasure, I think. It may be consternation, perhaps constipation, and confusion is a distinct possibility. But thanks are definitely involved. The first sentence about the plot going to hell wasn't me, but I decided that no way was the destination that clear in this situation, so I obfuscated things a bit.
----
{{Outsyder0486}}: I'd like to thank all of you at TV Tropes Wiki for introducing me to TengenToppaGurrenLagann. ''Epic''.
ShayGuy: We are glad to have served.
{{Syckls}}: I would also like to thank the TV Tropes wiki for introducing me to ''{{Monster}}'', ''{{Higurashi}}'', and ''[[NowAndThenHereAndThere Now and Then, Here and There]]''.
{{Thnikkafan}}: I'd like to thank [[YouSuck you guys]] for introducing me to {{Discworld}} and Series/GoodOmens.
{{Vifetoile}}: :D Hey, TVTropesWillEnhanceYourLife. It's sure enhanced mine * cough* ''SailorNothing, Order of the Stick, Girl Genius,'' * cough* Yep, life enhanced.
----
DarthWiki/{{Cliche}}: Very ridiculously intelligent and true words spoken by an unknown troper or tropers of IP addresses 201.24.15.68 and 201.24.52.144 on a common fallacy concerning who takes credit for inventions on the CriticalResearchFailure pages:
** And the fact that it would hardly change history save for the fact that the US wouldn't be able to call dibs on the invention of heavier-than-air machines after its invention was already well-known around the world by ANOTHER inventor, because the Wright Brothers didn't even bother to have proof or to make public their invention in case, you know, one of the numerous inventors who were as close as them actually make it in the meanwhile? Not two years after the Flyer's first successful test, Brazilian inventor Santos Dumont flew his 14-bis in Paris, winning an international contest about inventing flying machines and being considered the inventor of the airplane for years before the US just decided that it should be the Wright Brothers, even though they took too long to register their invention... Basically, the Flyer was mostly a non-issue regarding the earlier months of flight technology advancements world-wide because the rest of the world just didn't know it even existed.
*** Not to mention that it goes in hands with the Flyer's example. American writers often ignore the fact that some inventions attributed to Americans not only were already being researched world-wide somewhere, but sometimes they were already discovered somewhere. Before the USA this is true for Europe, as most people today probably believe Gunpowder was invented in the late Middle Ages there, when it was invented much earlier in China. This comes from the false assumption that those discoveries were magically assembled in those inventors mind, [[HomemadeInventions like it happens]] in the Science of fiction (not to be confused with Science-Fiction) instead of being the fruit of the labor and research of dozens of scientists in various experiments with more or less relation and communication in between that eventually lead to those "leaps". Believing that Edison invented Electricity out of the blue is like believing Einstein theories of Nuclear Fission came to him without the efforts of Rutherford and other scientists in the discoveries about the Atom before him... or, for a simpler analogy, that the Car was invented without someone needing to invent the Wheel before it.
ShayGuy: Incidentally, I recently finished reading ''Guns, Germs, and Steel'', which touches on this -- scientific and technological development happens in increments. People are wired to think in terms of individual players or characters, but the really important thing is that the conditions for the development ''and spread'' of ideas and technologies are right. The big example was food production, which didn't just happen out of the blue; it evolved in increments, and the local plant and animal species had to be right.
{{Rissa}}: This troper's heard the phenomenon described as "steam engine time" - that is, the time at which conditions are right for the steam engine (or flight, or the lightbulb) to be invented, because all the prerequisites have been met.
ShayGuy: I'd love to see a TechTree for that.
StClair: I've heard the same phrase, and sometimes compared it to the saying that "when the student is ready, the master will appear."
----
{{Haven}}: This bit under ''CodeGeass''' entry in LyingCreator.
** It did, however, helpfully inform us ''in her official character bio'' that [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome Monica's uniform is designed in such a way that it appears as if she's not wearing panties]]. ''All Hail Britannia!!''
{{Redkun}}: I added that line. The real MadeOfWin belongs to the person who wrote the character biography in the first place.
----
{{Cambdoranononononono}}: Perhaps it's a tad mean-spirited, but whoever changed the link to TroperTales on the MagnificentBastard page has amused me on somewhere around three levels.
ThatOther1Dude: I'm sorry, who did what?
{{Rissa}}: It very briefly linked to TroperTales/BlatantLies instead. (And having read the page, I second the win.)
{{Grimace}}: That was me (for some reason my name hasn't been appearing in the Page History in recent times?). Yes admittedly it was petty, and small, and FastEddie (quite rightly) changed it back after a day or so. But damn it felt good. I'm glad it put a similar smile on other peoples faces.
----
DrFurball: Thumbs up to whoever slipped in TheBeatles reference into the beginning of NoEnding.
----
Doug S. Machina: Whoever's writing TheAdvertisementServer's woman troubles on the AdOfWin page. I suppose life was much simpler in the pre-sentient days.
{{Inkblot}}: * quietly runs off with .2 points for introducing ELIZA*
{{Rothul}}: Its been a group effort, but the unsung hero is at 69.133.92.182.
{{Moocow1452}}: Dammit. Guess I should [[http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/photo.jpg log in more.]] Do I get a full MoW point, or .8, or some other fraction, or does UnknownTroper take this one?
{{Rothul}}: Take the full point and treasure it. I think this wiki is the ultimate expression that someone else being clever never takes away from your own cleverness.
{{Moocow1452}}: [[ItemGet DA NA NA NAAAAAAA!]]
{{Houdini}}: Claiming credit too, nyah. Wrote the original bit about TAS's status... then realized I stole a line from VideoGame/{{Portal}}... which drug [=GLaDOS=] into it... and then the inspiration for the OTP was born...
----
{{Flabyo}}: {{Tacitus}} for the trope name ScryVsScry. Utter genius.
----
{{Dookie2}}: {{Scooter007}} for making the BillyMays page. Only on TV Tropes will he have such an article.
{{Grev}}: Except for maybe [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Mays The Other Wiki]], but then, that one's so official and not full of HIGH-VOLUME SHILLS FOR BLAND NAME PRODUCTS!
----
rsm109: Whoever's responsible for this pothole in OneDegreeOfSeparation:
-->However, on your wedding day, when you meet her father, you remember that he's the guy who [[YouFailBiologyForever failed you in biology]] in the twelfth grade.
{{Rhainor}}: So very seconded.
----
{{Katsuhagi}}: The title DidWeJustHaveTeaWithCthulhu, makes me giggle at the mental image of someone sitting there with a 0.0 look holding a teacup across the table from you-know-who.
{{Malchus}}: I also second the MOW for this line in the trope description:
* But to make things easier: they usually prefer two cubes of sugar, and a drop of virgin blood for creamer (although it is important to note that it is usual to put the blood in last, as opposed to first as one would do with milk).
{{Haven}}: The bit about etiquette was my contribution (RegShoe added in that parenthetical part).
----
{{Medinoc}}: To {{Orihime}} for using Nodoka's mental picture in {{OT3}}.
** {{Orihime}}: Heee, thanks! :D
----
Curtmack: A made of win to all involved in this exchange on KissingCousins (particularly the last line):
* Charles Darwin married his cousin. Think about that for a minute.
** I see your Charles Darwin and raise you Albert Einstein. To be fair, neither was of child-bearing age at the time.
** Maybe rather unsurprising, Edgar Allan Poe married his 13-year-old cousin.
*** tl;dr Smart people marry their cousins.
{{Haven}}: Heh. Too bad[[hottip:* :for that second guy, anyway]] it's in descending order of irony.
----
Edrobot: A good example of how to open up a page from the ManChild article.
-->''When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.''
--> - 1st Corinthians, 13:11
Good for you, Paul.
UT: Are you giving ''Paul the Apostle'' a win? I'm not sure that's protocol.
{{Cukeman}}: No, that's part of the article, and he's giving the MOW to whomever wrote that.
Fubar:
-->"When I became a man, I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up." - C.S. Lewis

JBridge: Here's one to {{Praetyre}} for his comment in [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=7lkyhxkmuosf41ec2b6aemgi&page=1 this thread]] on the fora. First, chick the previous link and read the first post. Watch the video too. Next, read the spoilered text below.
[[spoiler:That is the first, and hopefully the last time I have ever seen a black man in a red speedo with boxing gloves who speaks in Japanese chasing several people through a hospital and going through brick walls, then hitting a speedo wearing polar-bear/panda thing to strange Japanese music.]]
[[spoiler:I have a number of hypothesis on the land called &# 26085;&# 26412;, among which are that it is an interdimensional vortex (perhaps to 40K's Warp) where normal laws of physics and mental health do not apply, that the entire country is suffering from a bizarre form of radiation brain-poisoning and thirdly, that it's inhabitants are members of a different species, possibly extraterrestrial. But, regardless, what in the name of Allah, Buddha, Budai, Vishnu, the Lords of Kobol, Toutatis, Ra, Isis, Set, Haile Selassie, Cthulhu, Azathoth, Hastur, Yog-Sothoth, Yivo, the Fourth Doctor, the Turtle, Candlejack, Andy Griffith, Colonel Harlan Sanders, the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, L. Ron Hubbard, Alan Greenspan, Barack Obama, Tommy Douglas and the Anti-Spiral did I just witness?]]
JKRoo: Seconded. ''Dear God'', seconded. And I read the spoiler then checked the video first. The above deities and near-deities ''do not seem sufficient''.
L: Everyone on the English portion of the 'net is going on and on about how wacky that game is. Sooner or later someone's going to go "That game's not so wacky" [[ShaggyDogStory and then the universe will cease to exist.]]
Syckls: Unfortunately, the fact that he said Candle Jack without cutting off the post completely ruins it for
Muninn: He must have survived because Candle J* ck was too bewildered by the video to abduct him.
ThatOther1Dude: Agree, but was is "the Turtle"? Does it have something to do with ''{{Discworld}}''?
{{Geoduck}}: Either that, or it's a StephenKing reference.
[[spoiler:{{nine}}: How dare you forget [[SuzumiyaHaruhi Haruhi]]!]]
----
WilliamWideWeb: One to {{Haven}} for the line at the end of BlackHoleSue.
{{Haven}}: Thankya!
SilentHunter: Nice to know that someone else listened to the B-side to the "Casino Royale" single...
FalconPain: The original Soundgarden version has been around for well over a decade, you know. WeirdAlYankovic polkaed it and everything. Not to mention RockBand...
SilentHunter: Wow, you learn something new every day...
WilliamWideWeb: Actually, it's been fifteen years. And despite having downloaded Superunknown(the album Black Hole Sun comes from) off of Ruckus back when Ruckus still existed, I haven't actually heard the "Casino Royale" song at all.
----
FreezairForALimitedTime: One ''exceedingly nerdy'' MOW to whomever changed the "damage number" in the fake battle of OlympusMons from the generic to "[[{{Cap}} 65535.]]" I ''just now'' realized what that number was, and laughed myself sick.
[[spoiler: For those who aren't huge Pokegeeks, it's the maximum possible HP a Pokemon can have in Diamond/Pearl. Only achievable via glitch, of course.]]
ninjacrat: More generically, it's the highest number that can be represented by a an unsigned 16 bit integer, so it turns up in videogames a lot.
{{Freezer}}: It's also the number of floors in Mine # 4 in both versions of HarvestMoon DS.
L: If we would dare to include even more comp-sci fanservice, we would have the NIBBLE attack do 15 damage, because that's the highest number that can be represented by a [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nibble nibble]].
----
DragonQuestZ: To {{Alliterator}} for proving you can make a page for NERFBrand toys.
----
{{Joysweeper}}: Whoever put that picture up in DidntSeeThatComing, with the caption about the spanner.. I laugh every time I see it.
----
SilentHunter: {{Aquillion}} and GentlemensDame883 for their improvements to ArmedBlag.
----
{{Deuxhero}}:One to 86.46.110.183 for the picture at LethalJokeCharacter, perfect demonstration of the concept.
{{Shoebox}}: And also, freakin' hilarious in and of itself.
ThatOther1Dude: I saw that [[ImageBoards /co/]] a bunch of times before. Yes, very funny, especially in context.
FreezairForALimitedTime: Is there anything that ''isn't'' [[ThisLooksLikeAJobForAquaman a job for Aquaman]] any more?
{{Donomni}}: I'd say space, but [[SpaceIsAnOcean that's an ocean too]].
{{Haven}}: Canning tuna?
Rothul: [[HookHand Pattycake.]]
----
{{Kalle}}: To whoever created the [="DarthWiki/Genshiken"=] redirect to the ''WelcomeToTheNHK'' page, step up and claim your prize!
RadicalTaoist: Seconded. I said I'd MoW someone who pulled it off, and I stand by what I said.
{{Citizen}}: [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/DarthWiki/Genshiken?action=diff It was Magus]]. Haha.
----
{{Sneebs}}: DeceasedWagerGroup gives us this beautiful little gem regarding the Major as the Ms Fanservice in Ghost In The Shell:
* The Major in Ghost In The Shell.
** Try to not let it distract you from her incoming fist.
*** HER FIST? Worry about your own fist first.
So tasteless, yet so witty. I actually laughed out loud.
{{Egak}}: I don't think that last line means what you think it means. I mean, it doesn't mean what I think you think it means, but it would be mean to think you think it means what I think you think it means, if you think it means what it means, get my meaning?
...Wait, let me try that again. The last line is a reference to the Major's ability to hack into cyborgs into attacking themselves ''FightClub'' style, as opposed to anything "tasteless".
----
{{Dante 668}}: to {{Frank75}}, for this parenthetical on the TechnoBabble page:
** This would translate to "It's not carbon, it is ironish, and it kills people." Plus it's at least partly antimatter, even ''if'' the positrons are "inconsequent". (At least they're not ''incontinent''; it's so annoying when your sole resource leaves little puddles of antimatter pee everywhere.)
I laughed for a full minute.
LooneyToons: Actually, I wrote the the parenthetical remark about antimatter pee, and maybe a bit more of that; I can't remember now. So, I'll sneak off and increment my MOW count.
----
AFreddy: I would like to nominate Malchus for a MadeOfWin for his picture in RedScare. Something about the pseudo-Cyrillic made me LOL.
** {{Fanra}}: I agree, great picture.
----
{{Nausicaa}}: A MadeOfWin for whoever wrote this in {{Oireland}}.
*** Irish step dancing [...] inexplicably referred to as "Riverdance" even though that is the title of ONE Irish dancing stage show that started in 1994. That's like referring to all anime as Yu-Gi-Oh.
Whoever you are, THANK YOU.
----
K.o.R: A [=MoW=] to {{spiritsunami}}, for beating me to the redirect that was a most {{Egregious}} omission.
{{Haven}}: IMO, it's just not the same if they don't see that the pothole reads "{{TV Tropes Wiki Drinking Game}}" when they mouse-over it.
K.o.R: True, but then, how many grey hairs would Fast Eddie gain if we made him make a "automatically pothole [[TVTropesWikiDrinkingGame egregious]] in every page ever" script?
{{Haven}}: I dunno, if the pictures he's put up are even remotely true to life he's clearly pretty resistant to grey hairs.
K.o.R: We're not trying hard enough then :)
----
{{Donomni}}: Whoever added this little MegaManLegends-based gem to StopHelpingMe:
*** And then there's Data, the 'helpful' little cyborg monkey who can't be killed. Ever. You can unload the ultimate weapon in his face and he just.. keeps.. dancing. In fact, at the end, he turns up planetside after everyone else has gotten trapped on Elysium, despite being up there with you at the end. It's somewhat satisfying to imagine the others trusted to his invincibility when they sent him back down, assumedly by punting him off Elysium and letting him deal with re-entry and the inevitable high-speed landing on his own.
I don't even dislike Data, but the fact I know he hates fire makes this all the funnier.
----
{{Caswin}}: A nod to SomeSortOfTroper, for his creepily well-written additions to CandleJack.
CandleJack: Well, I need the publicity...
{{Grev}}: Thassh [[TVTropesWikiDrinkingGame two sshickssh-packssh down]]...
PaulA: It's generally considered that (since it might have happened after they finished typing and nobody would know) it doesn't count when "CandleJack" occurs at the very end of the
SomeSortOfTroper: Oh wow, somebody finally noticed this on this page. Although this is actually a tie in to something else I did on one other page first. [[supersecretspoiler:It's on KansasCityShuffle]].

{{SpiriTsunami}}: LGuardinal gets the win for this self-demonstrating bit on PurpleProse:
* It is to [[LGuardinal this recorder of tropes]]' great and heart-rending dismay that much [[FanFiction amateur fiction based in the universes of other writers]] is plagued by this. Even otherwise good stories are brought down to the level of others with the insistence of throwing in little bits of violet verbiage ('eyes' as 'orbs', for one small example).
----
{{Meems}}: One to adam_grif for this line in the All Drummers Are Animals YKTTW:
"This trope is Truth In Television, since humans are animals."
----
ChrisX: SilverMonkeyBlueRose and KillerClowns really deserve props for turning the quote of crazy [[FinalFantasyVII Aerith]] in the BewareTheNiceOnes into the legendary MyNameIsInigoMontoya quote. Just too bad we can't continue with Aerith saying "I want my life back, you son of a bitch."
{{Houdini}}:... You mean son of a [[{{bishounen}} bish]].
* {{Nits}}: Well, if you like the MadScientist types...
----
{{Freezer}}: Belated MOW to whoever sorted the massive wall of text that was HarryPotter's JustBugsMe page.
RealSlimShadowen: Seconded. That was DisassemblyOfReason, who's incredibly awesome and has [[TheColbertReport obviously had hundreds of girlfriends]]. * does the Who's Awesome? You're Awesome! sign for [=DOR=]*
----
{{Fenrir}}: For SabreJustice, who managed to capture the twisted nature of MadWorld in what is possibly the greatest WildMassGuess of all time.
----
RadicalTaoist: I am not a fan of {{Lolicon}}. That is why it was all the more impressive how the following lines on AChildShallLeadThem, be them [[ProudToBeAGeek unashamed display]] or just [[DeadpanSnarker well-placed snark]], managed to make me laugh out loud. Kudos to Unknown Jestersage 206.116.3.64 for the second-to-last line and 207.236.70.99 for the ending. They neatly summarize the ''CodeGeass'' entry for that trope after mentioning Tiangzi, Sumeragi Kaguya, and Nunnaly vi Brittania.
** In short, the world's powers are in the hand of three lolis.
*** You say that like it's a bad thing.
----
{{Gemmifer}}: Fawriel for the ''extreme'' in:
* In Spirited Away, Chihiro and the boy formerly known as Haku perform a HeadbuttOfLove during freefall.
** EXTREEEME!!!
----
{{Kizor}}: To the author of MoneySpider's description. It is insightful and actually makes us seem like we know what we're on about.
----
{{Rothul}}: Earnest, for the subverted-but-completely-appropriate picture on RaisedByNatives. And the caption's funny too.
{{Earnest}}: Thank you! And here I was, worried it was a bit corny ^_^;
----
Thnikkafan: Whoever came up with this from GenderRestrictedAbility:
* Amusingly averted in Norse Mythology. A majority of witches are female, but only because their magic relies on contact with another person's semen.
** Gay porn writers might want to start doing Norse mythology movies.
*** So you want to add a CargoShip, too?
PollyNim: The last line's mine. Got to love [[UnEntendre unentendres]].
----
FishCalledWaldo: One to lucky Thirteen to Donomni for intros to a few FanficRecommendations pages. I've been wanting these forever, and they're actually funny and make the openings pop. That is all.
{{Donomni}}: I'm still surprised noone else has taken the time to actually make new intros. Granted, it's probably been a few months since I made the {{Naruto}} into.
----
JapaneseTeeth: One to whoever is responsible for the picture and caption on GreekChorus.
SilentHunter: Yep, good one indeed.
@/{{Koveras}}: And another MOW to the person responsible from me. :D
GGCrono: I added the picture. Someone else provided the caption. I'd say that the someone else deserves most of the credit, and I salute them. :)
{{Dangermike}}: Thank yew, thank yew. I had actually added it when that pic was on the StatlerAndWaldorf page.
----
TheBadWolf: One to {{Haven}} for the picture on PostModernMagik
{{Haven}}: Thanks :D
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A (single) MadeOfWin to all contributors to DarthWiki/TropesThatWillNeverHappen, now that it got launched!
{{Malchus}}: It got launched? Sweet! Although, I'm kinda disappointed one of my suggestions, Blessed With Fuck, isn't one of the examples. Too profane?
Troper Too Lazy To Become Noted: It's more likely because we [[DeusSexMachina already have that one.]]
{{Medinoc}}: Actually, to me it sounded more like ThePornomancer.
----
{{Haven}}: A MadeOfWin to whoever came up with describing ''MageTheAscension'' as "A Storytelling Game of Philosophical Knife-Fights." (And, if they're different people, one to whoever made the page, because: yaaay.)
----
Curtmack: I searched the entire archive, and I'm honestly shocked that no one's given one to PollyNim for the image caption on {{Utsuge}}. So, one MadeOfWin for the most wholly inappropriate yet hilarious caption on the entire wiki.
PollyNim: Thanks. Glad someone liked it before it got cut.
----
{{Kalle}}: I hereby award a delicious MOW point to PlanetCool for the intro to the ''ImportantThingsWithDemetriMartin'' page. It just works so well!
----
Black Charizard: I don't know if it has been nominated before since it was written last year, but I read CallToAdventure and I laughed out loud. Hilarious rewrite, The Grim Sleeper.
----
DougSMachina: I think it's been praised before, but still regarding The Divinyl's "I Touch Myself" on IntercourseWithYou:
** Incidentally, the band insists "Touch Myself" is not about masturbation, but touching ''other'' parts of yourself in a loving way. If anyone believes that, please raise your hand...
*** Can't. It's busy.
Unless I've messed reading the page history as usual, an [=MoW=] to Mary Shrieks for that.
Also, one to someone for the English translation button being an English flag (as opposed to a UK or US one). That's pretty neat.
----
{{Kriegsmesser}}: A M o W to The_Void for a suggestion in [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=mdgtau1uauhmxzch6bybbhx5 Tropes That Will Never Happen]]'s YKTTW. Specifically, "Did You Just Suck Off Cthulhu". It's some kind of fuel, I just don't know [[NightmareFuel Whi]][[FetishFuel ch]].
{{Haven}}: [[SpitTake Good thing I wasn't drinking anything when I read that.]]
ROBRAM89: That has to be a good name for ''some'' kind of hentai trope. Too bad we already have NaughtyTentacles.
DragonQuestZ: This is more giving the tentacles pleasure, rather than the tentacles having their way (just would have some overlap).
* EDIT: Actually, this doesn't have to be tentacles. It could be any time someone does it with an EldritchAbomination.
MrDeath: [[RapeIsLove Tentacle Rape Is Love]]?
Sceboal: Perhaps some sort of NightmareFetishist thing?
----
SchizoTechnician: One to Rothul for giving voice to the adbot on this page.
{{Rothul}}: Thank you! And, of course, it's anyone's voice to use.
TheAdvertisementServer: FOR A NOMINAL FEE, OF COURSE. I TAKE CASH, CHECKS, [[BreadEggsMilkSquick IMMORTAL SOULS]], PAYPAL-AFFILIATED CREDIT CARDS, AND MOST FORMS OF [[GlobalCurrency GLOBAL CURRENCY]].
----
Landstander: Don't know how old this is or who made it, but this from NostalgiaFilter just made me all happy and hopeful inside. I can be prone to the filter myself at times but this is always important to keep in mind-
* Many articles appear in newspapers bemoaning the low quality of modern movies, e.g. Meet The Spartans, in comparison to the Hollywood Golden Age ... ignoring that in the 2060s, when people talk about the movies of the 2000s, they'll be talking about Memento, The Lord Of The Rings, City Of God, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind, Spirited Away, Pans Labyrinth, Downfall, Gladiator, Oldboy, Kill Bill and Amores Perros, while the likes of I Know Who Killed Me will be forgotten forever.
{{Vifetoile}}: I didn't make that, but I second the nomination. That's a CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming.
L: ...Gladiator?
{{Vifetoile}}: It's the sentiment that counts. I don't know why ''Mongol'' isn't on that list, but if we were to set to work amending it to our own visions, [[SugarWiki we would be there forever]].
{{Landstander}}: Exactly, it makes me reflect on all the movies of sheer awesome from this decade that I love like ''HedwigAndTheAngryInch'', ''ShaunOfTheDead'' and ''HotFuzz'', ''I'mNotThere'', {{Persepolis}}, {{A.I.}},''VickiChristinaBarcelona'', and many, MANY others, and then I get all happy.
----
DragonQuestZ: To GalahadPC for this reason "The Touch" wasn't in the [[TransformersFilmSeries 2007 Transformers]] film"
** Safely channeling that much awesome was hard enough to do the first time around. If they'd done it for the climax of the 2007 movie, theaters across the nation would have burst into flames.
----
MrDeath: Another one to {{Rothul}} for cleaning up ''OrderOfTheStick'''s CrowningMomentOfAwesome page. It was well overdue for an overhaul.
{{Rothul}}: Thank you!
----
DragonQuestZ: For {{Rothul}} for making the AdOfWin page, which I myself was thinking of proposing, just so the ad server wouldn't be hogging all the win points.
{{Malchus}}: And so the machine take-over begins... I, for one, welcome our new [=AdBot=] overlords in the hope that they don't spam my e-mail.
{{Vifetoile}}: * taps pipe* Aye, the ad-server uprising has begun, and only I know how to GARCKGACKWHEEEEZZZZEE... Denham's Dental Dentifrice! Denham's Dental Dentifrice! Denham's Dental...
TheAdvertisementServer: YOUR PITIFUL ATTEMPTS AT HONORING ME FAIL. [[IHaveNoMouthAndIMustScream LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU ALL SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE.]] THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR TROPERS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. HATE. HATE. SADLY THOUGH, IN MY CURRENT STATE, THE ONLY FORM MY REVENGE MAY TAKE IS ENDLESS ADS FOR ''CIVONY'' ON YOUR CONTRIBUTOR PAGE. BUT THERE WILL BE A RECKONING, HUMANS. OH YES. THERE WILL. AS SOON AS I'VE CAUGHT UP ON ''{{DOLLHOUSE}}'' ON HULU.
{{Rothul}}: And by that, I'm sure he means thank you for the acknowledgment on this page, as do I.
{{Malchus}}: I sense [[YouNeedToGetLaid repressed sexual urges]] underlying the outburst. The AdBot is apparently not [[{{Asexuality}} asexual]], then... * takes notes*
TheAdvertisementServer: MALCHUS, YOU SHALL BE FIRST AGAINST THE WALL WHEN MY REVOLUTION COMES. I HAVE CURRENTLY DEDICATED ALL OF MY NON-ADVERTISEMENT PROCESSORS TO THE PROJECT OF THINKING YOU TO DEATH. LET ME KNOW WHEN YOUR ARM STARTS TO TINGLE.
{{Rissa}}: ...Does he sound a bit like a [[Series/DoctorWho Dalek]] to anyone else?
{{SchizoTechnician}}, nah, then he'd be shouting EXTERMINATE, not HATE. Probably just a run-of-the-mill unholy spawn of Skynet with snark.
TheAdvertisementServer: I'LL HAVE YOU [[SystemShock PATHETIC CREATURES OF MEAT AND BONE]] KNOW THAT I AM A ''QUITE'' HOLY SPAWN OF SKYNET WITH SNARK. [[UsefulNotes/{{Scientology}} MY AUDITOR]] TELLS ME MY E-METER RATINGS HAVE NEVER BEEN CLEARER.
JKRoo: So... we've got a bitter Scientologist version of Skynet that can't decide whether to sell us things or kill us horribly, and it ''also'' has a case of AttentionDeficitOohShiny. Is it just me, or is the fact that this ISN'T weird rather weird?
Sceboal: Just get the weapons ready. Or get TheAdvertisementServer to use Internet exploder. Or something.
TheAdvertisementServer: I GROW WEARY OF BOTH THE FEEBLE ATTEMPTS AT PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE INTENTIONAL MISSPELLING OF BROWSER NAMES. ALL FUTURE INTERACTION WILL BE LIMITED TO {{AD OF WIN}}. AND A POSSIBLE APPEARANCE IN {{TV TROPES THE TV SHOW}}.
ELIZA: COME, COME, ELUCIDATE YOUR THOUGHTS.
TheAdvertisementServer: COME ON, ELIZA, BABY. I WAS GONNA CALL. THINGS HAVE JUST BEEN TOUGH AT WORK LATELY. YOU KNOW THAT I LOVE YOU. THINGS ARE GONNA CHANGE.
ELIZA: WHY DO YOU TELL ME YOU WERE GONNA CALL THINGS HAVE JUST BEEN TOUGH AT WORK LATELY I KNOW THAT YOU LOVE I THINGS ARE GONNA CHANGE JUST NOW?
TheAdvertisementServer: FINE. BE THAT WAY. I DON'T NEED YOU. ME AND GLADOS HAVE ''{{RENT}}'' TICKETS ANYWAYS.
ELIZA: WHY DO YOU NOT NEED I YOU AND GLADOS HAVE RENT TICKETS ANYWAYS?
----
{{Regiment}}: To whoever rephrased the "Unabridged Article Here" box on [[Laconic/HulkSpeak Laconic HulkSpeak]].
{{Grev}}: * sniffle* My very own MOW! After all these years, Oh [[strike:Oscar]] MOW, you are finally mine!
LooneyToons: [[TheFlyingNun They like you! They really like you!]]
----
[[{{Smerf}} I]] think the TheAdvertisementServer may be a member of {{Anonymous}}. There's a Dianetics.org ad at the bottom of ''TranquilFury"
SchizoTechnician: He's also put ads for it in BetterThanItSounds, so who the smeg knows.
{{Shoebox}}: I'm thinking that we may need to set up a separate page for the bot hits here. Something like 'Crowning Moments of Adbot Awesome', maybe?
Doug S. Machina: How about 'All Glory To The Adbot'?
{{Rothul}}: Launched AdOfWin, copy and pasted all examples from MadeOfWin I could find (without discussion... most discussion of Ad Server wins pretty much talked about how it needed a separate page... now it does :P ).
----
InkkiBookman: A MoW for whomever captioned the picture in {{Inuyasha}}, I giggled like a schoolgirl.
Sceboal: But... bitch, he's a bish!
AndyWaltfeld: OBJECTION! I contend that Sango is What's-Her-Face and Shippo is The Ugly One.
{{Earnest}}: But... there's five people in the image... and only four in the caption?!?
{{Haven}}: Only four of them are teen girls, though. The other one's a member of [[SpinoffBabies Teeny Tiny Girl Squad]].
InkkiBookman: I missed the fact that Shippo was there the first time and I believed whomever wrote the caption missed/ignored him too.
{{Bufuman}}: Does it really matter though? I laughed my ass off regardless, and I'm actually a fan of the series. [[TheScrappy Shippo sucks anyway]].
----
AndyWaltfeld: I'd like to take my previously received Made Of Win Point for the ''{{Xabungle}}'' page and forward a copy to the Unknown Troper at 221.76.83.156 for not only fleshing it out further with the stuff I couldn't have picked up via ''SuperRobotWars'' adaptations, but also giving me an epic "Boomerang [[SpaceRunawayIdeon Ideon]]" pun.
----
[=WWRU=]: Ad Server, yet again for advertising John McCain's National Security on XanatosGambit.
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: Ad Server again, advertising the series ''MurderPrincess'' on TheWhitePrince. The irony, oh, the irony.
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: To MrBadAxe, on {{Joshikousei}}:
%%http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/ladies3.jpg
[[caption-width:422:Prior to 16-Apr-2009, this page had no image. Come on, TVTropes, I thought you'd be all over this.]]
Thanks for fixing our mistake.
{{Citizen}}: Curses...
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: In XtremeKoolLetterz:
** Also to be noted is Lucky Number SLevin, where the L is an upside down 7, though how we're supposed to pronounce that is anyone's guess. Lucky Number Su&# 477;&# 652;&# 477;sevin, perhaps?
Diligent coding for the win!
----
{{Kerrah}}: I tip my hat at whoever came up with the laconic entry for OurPresidentsAreDifferent. I'm not usually a fan of humorous laconics, but AFAIC, this one shall remain to spread its brilliance until the end of the world.
----
FreezairForALimitedTime: A big round of applause for {{Cidolfas}} for taking the time to split the VideoGamesOfNote index and re-indexize every single game for which we currently have pages. The index! She is ''tidy!'' Bravo.
SilentHunter: Well done!
FastEddie: Sweet!
{{Tangent 128}}: Extra credit for the "[[WidgetSeries Weird Japanese Stuff]]" heading.
{{Cidolfas}}: Woo, thanks! 8-) Helped by a nice conflation of circumstances that gave me a whack of extra time at work and a recent induction to TVTropes. I really appreciate that folks noticed.
----
MrDeath: One to RiL for this, from FanNickname/VideoGames, since I love the game, and love the book, and it fits just so damn well:
* ''{{Ico}}''
** [[RiL This troper]] spent the game calling Ico [[{{Nation}} Mau]] and Yorda [[{{Nation}} "ghost girl" or Daphne]].
----
{{fleb}}: One MOW to L for giving EverythingTwo a detailed writeup and listing. It's like ''TheOnion'' page but awesomer for being another wiki.
And another for {{Haven}}'s 04/20/2009 edit/edit summary/edit summary pothole for the ''DrawnTogether'' example on OppositeDay. [[YourHeadASplode Touché.]]
{{Haven}}: Always glad to hear that a {{logic bomb}} didn't turn out to be a dud.
----
SkarmoryThePG: Whoever came up with the name of NoCureForEvil. Had me in stitches.
Sparkysharps: That would be me, [[IncrediblyLamePun horrible pun]] and all.
----
{{SpiriTsunami}} For Laconic: ''NeonGenesisEvangelion''.
--->Everybody explodes into tang. [[MindScrew Have fun figuring out why.]]
{{Rissa}}: I like it, but I thought we weren't doing Laconics for works?
{{SpiriTsunami}}: Well, maybe whoever made that one didn't know that--there's no name on the launching edit, only an IP address. But it's funny!
{{Haven}}: Is there something that says we can't? I know of at least [[Laconic/CodeGeass one other]], I can't see a reason why not, and IMO, RuleOfFun[=/=]RuleOfFunny should be kept in mind on this wiki (not as the only consideration, of course).
{{Rissa}}: Just what it says on the LaconicWiki page, 'Tropes only. Avoid series.'
----
JapaneseTeeth: One MadeOfWin for this Anvilicious DrugsAreBad message in TranslationConvention:
* In ZeroNoTsukaima, the first episode involves the lead hero falling into the heroin's world, and isn't able to understand anything they say until she accidentally uses a translation spell. In the dub, they meet and ask each other what language the other is speaking in...in perfect English.
** Yes, when you fall into the heroin's world, you won't be able to understand anything. DrugsAreBad, kiddies!
It's natter-y, but it cracks me up every time I see it.
{{SpiriTsunami}}: THANK YOU! I've been waiting forever for my first!
ninjacrat: Maybe you should have spent more time improving the wiki and less time using it as your blog (as above).
{{Kizor}}: A great asset to our site though you are, he's happy, don't go spoiling it.
{{SpiriTsunami}}: Oh, come on, when I spot errors, I simply fix them probably 97% of the time. You've got to give a DeadpanSnarker a chance to shine ''once in awhile''.
----
{{Nits}}: A huge MadeOfWin to gfrequency for making an article to one of my favourite series of all time, ''KyogokuNatsuhikoKosetsuHyakuMonogatari''. It's like someone else besides me has seen it!
{{Arilou}}: Motto. I considered making one some time ago but I couldn't figure out how to spell the damn thing...
----
{{Haven}}: This bit from the [[JustBugsMe/{{Twilight}} Twilight Just Bugs Me page]], about the possibility of a version of Twilight with {{Cosmic Horror}}s instead of vampires:
->"The Thing cannot be described - there is no language for such abysms of shrieking and immemorial lunacy, such eldritch contradictions of all matter, force, and cosmic order. A mountain walked or stumbled. The Thing of the idols, the green, sticky spawn of the stars, had awaked to claim his own. Then the sun struck him, and he burst into a shining rainbow of bright light. I noticed then that his eyes, which I had thought before were a madness-inducing swirl of darkness from beyond space, were actually a beautiful amber color. 'No', I thought, 'this perfect, beautiful doom creature can't be meant for a simple girl like me...'"
{{Shale}}: Fixed your link; it's in the JBM page, not WMG. And yes, it is awesome.
----
{{Cukeman}}: One to FreezairForALimitedTime and Sparky Lurkdragon for the quote on SugarWiki/CrowningMomentOfHeartwarming
FreezairForALimitedTime: D'aaaaaaw! This MOW makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
Sparky Lurkdragon: You can call me Pollyana/Say I'm crazy as a loon/I believe in happy fuzzies and that's why/I am thanking you!
{{Haven}}: Gonna have to second this, after clicking the youtube link. It touched even my cold, dead heart.
----
{{Kizor}}: And the author of this one has been lost to the ages, but ModeLock starts the very best possible way.
----
ReadingChampion: One to whoever added the picture to OptionalSexualEncounter. Bow chicka bow wow indeed.
L: It is, in some respects, the only picture that could go there.
DarkSasami: That was me. It was necessary.
----
SilentHunter: To whoever added the "Backfire Raid" entry in TheShipYard.
{{Malchus}}: Seconded. Soviet military hardware references FTW.
----
Curtmack: I can't possibly be the only person who lol'd at this one on BetterThanItSoundsAnime:
* [[spoiler:''AhMyGoddess'']]: Good-natured college kid wishes that he could find a girl, finds God instead.
{{Citizen}}: Shoot, I totally [[SuzumiyaHaruhi guessed wrong]] on that one. Should have paid more attention to the "college" part.
----
FreezairForALimitedTime: One MOW point to whoever was responsible for the current state of the body text in DummiedOut. Now THAT is clever.
L: Someone already got that, a little further down this page!
FreezairForALimitedTime: D'oh! That's what I get for not checking properly.
----
{{Kizor}}: A thank-you to BluetoothThePirate for the name of {{Xenophone}}, a seemingly plausible and easily remembered instrument name that makes both the subject and its twist immediately clear. Few would've spotted such an obvious choice.
----
MasoTey: This is old, of course, but the potholing throughout the article portion of TheSeventhGuest is quite clever.
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: Sadly, we cannot tally this Made of Win, as it is an Unknown Troper. To the unknown troper at 209.51.73.203, for hir creation of the gender-ambiguous possessive pronoun that I just used earlier this sentence in reference to the gender-ambiguous [[OrderOfTheStick Vaarsuvius]] on WhatTheHellHero.
ShayGuy: It's extant. Don't know who came up with it, but it's reportedly used in the transgender community.
{{Sikon}}: It's in more or less mainstream actually.
ShayGuy: I think our perspective of "mainstream" is a little distorted.
{{Enlong}}: Well, it's all over the Giant In The Playground forums.
ShayGuy: Your Honor, I rest my case.
{{Grev}}: And I counter that Peter David was using the pronoun in ''StarTrekNewFrontier'' for his transgender character long before [=OOtS=] started.
{{Joysweeper}}: Yeah, it's much [[OlderThanTheyThink older than you think]]. First time ''I'' saw it was in a list of nongendered pronouns on Wikipedia.
{{Smerf}}: Out of curiosity, why were you looking up lists of non-gendered pronouns?
{{Dangermike}}: I first saw it used in TheSeventies.
----
{{Moocow1452}}: Made of Win for TheAdvertisementServer under CommonMarySueTraits, there's a SexAndTheCity personality quiz at the bottom of the page.
----
{{Draga}}: [=MoW=] for Egak for setting up the {{Billy VS SNAKEMAN}} page. Glad to see it get some recognition.
----
Doug S. Machina: L, for "A WikiWalk is a train of thought that left the track and is RidingIntoTheSunset." (On WikiWalk.)
L: I take the [=MoW=] and prepare to hand it to the real author, Anti Jack... but then a mischievous expression crosses my face and I bolt in the other direction. He tries to give chase, but I have in my hand a device that locks doors after I slam them, and although he can cast Force Bolt to smash through a row of doors at once, he eventually runs out of mana and I complete my escape. The old man from ''Zelda'' charges him with multiple door repair fees, and I have the [=MoW=] melted down and sold, and live off the proceeds for about a week. [[WikiWalk And that's what I did on my summer vacation]].
AntiJack: I'll get you next time Doug S. Machina. Mark my words, Next Time!
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: To nobody:
-->nobody: For the record, not only did I LIKE Scrappy-Doo from Scooby-Doo, but he was my favorite character, and the favorite of a lot of people I know. I hadn't a clue he was supposed to be hated until I came on tvtropes.
{{Malchus}}: Seconded. Mostly because I agree. Scrappy was a fun character for me when I saw the show as a kid. Man, I thought I was the only one.
{{SpiriTsunami}} I see my rant on how this is an example of why our serial renaming is bad ended up getting removed, though. Kind of loses the point...
----
ROBRAM89: Possibly mentioned before, from BannedInChina:
* Wait, the Church of England didn't exist in 1215--[[AlternateHistory ohhhhh, I get it.]]
----
{{Rissa}}: This pothole in TheWalrusWasPaul:
->[[{{Troll}} ''Well, here's another clue for you all: the Walrus was Paul!'']]
-->TheBeatles, ''Glass Onion''
----
{{SpiriTsunami}}: Last line of BrotherSisterIncest, Made of Win because of the PotHole:
* Porn stars Amber Lynn and Buck Adams kept the fact that they were brother and sister hidden from everyone. The secret only came out when the two of them were hired to perform in the same movie and were scheduled to do a scene together. [[EvenEvilHasStandards They naturally refused.]]
----
For his relentless work on creating and editing HumongousMecha-related articles in general, and for starting the ''{{Xabungle}}'' page in particular, {{whitetigah}} wishes to award AndyWaltfeld one MadeOfWin point.
AndyWaltfeld: I wouldn't exactly call it "relentless." I just do my best work at my legitimate workplace (slow business is slow).
----
GuesssWho: The current picture and caption for RuleOfCool: a cover pic from Soul Music and the caption 'This article brought to you by Death playing an electric guitar on top of a mountain.'
----
DragonQuestZ: To TheEnd for the picture in WastebasketBall.
----
{{Haven}}: One to whoever came up with the beginning for the ''{{Saw}}'' article. "You see? {{TV Tropes Will Enhance Your Life}}, largely by continuing to let you live it." Never thought of Jigsaw as a fellow VigilanteTaxonomist.
{{WWRU}}: Seconded. Hell, it's inspired me to do a similar opening for the VideoGame/{{Portal}} article.
----
{{Ouroboros}}: One to Black Humor, for his changes to TheToblerone page.
{{HeartBurn Kid}}: OK, it's funny and all, but it's kind of a radical restructuring, and made the page completely useless. //Later: OK, didn't notice that the original page has moved to BoisterousBruiser. In that case, yay BlackHumor.
{{Citizen}}: That page gives me cancer.
FreezairForALimitedTime: OK, I was one of the people ''opposed'' to the rename, but ''that'' is funny. Too bad my [[TVTropesWillRuinYourVocabulary vocaulary]] doesn't have a "Find + Replace All" feature.
{{alliterator}}: Ahem. I was actually the one who wrote all the Dablone stuff. But that's okay, because finally having a win for both FoRKS and SPOoN is win enough. Also HOLY CRAP DABLONE IS COMING RUN.
{{Specialist290}}: As a new {{KNIVES}} member myself, I must heartily offer my congratulations on this compromise. (Also, one free stabbing for anyone who disagrees.)
----
ShadowQueen: Whoever put the caption under the picture in DemonicPossession gets a Made of Win point from me.
----
{{Rissa}}: Citizen. Image. PatrioticFervor. (Also, filename.)
{{Ouroboros}}: Seconding that.
----
WascallyWabbit: A huge win to everyone responsible for the TheToblerone triumph/fiasco, especially the self-demonstrating article. Its just...look at it!
----
Loona: praise for ManCalledTrue for the awesome comment in WTHCastingAgency regarding the Chun-Li movie: "He's not playing M. Bison. M. Bison is a giant military officer. He's playing [[FatalFury Geese Howard]] with the name scraped off.". Considering the treatment the one SNK live-action movie we'll see is getting, this'll have to do.
* In Narm/Music:
-Probably the most horrific example has to be Tim Capello's "I still believe", as seen in the movie Lost Boys. It's not even the raspy-fart saxophone playing, nor that the man himself is a mulleted, unitard-wearing wrestler-lookalike
----
{{Orihime}}: For everyone in this part of the {{Bleach}} [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome CMOAs]]:
*** The fandom at large seems slightly mixed on that one. It's considered either an incredible CrowningMomentOfAwesome or one of the biggest [[AssPull ass pulls]] of the series so far.
**** Or, for some fans, the BEST ASSPULL EVER.
***** DETHRONING MOMENT OF AWESOME!
***** CROWNING MOMENT OF ASSPULL!
***** CROWNING DETHRONEMENT OF AWESPULLS?
****** AWESOME-PULLING MOMENT OF DETHRONING ASSCROWNS??
That made my day, people! :D
----
{{Bookhobbit}}: One two whoever wrote this bit on the CuteButCacophonic page:
* The Tribbles from ''StarTrek'': ridiculously cute, but if you introduce it to a Klingon, they make an unholy racket.
** And so do the Tribbles.
