1Welcome to '''Rocher Hotel''', the hotel that doubles as an accommodation and entertainment! Hosted by manager Faulerro Rocher (of ''WebVideo/DanganronpaAbridgedThing'' and ''WebVideo/NullmetalAlchemist'' fame), waiter Frobman, offscreen chef Jacksthemouse and a rotating cast of guests, this podcast consists of sets of {{Improv}} games in 1 to 2-hour episodes. Although early episodes tended to simply be a bunch of games put together, later episodes started to follow themes, such as hotel politics, video games, ''Franchise/{{Pokemon}}'', ''Franchise/MortalKombat'', ''Manga/{{Kinnikuman}}'', and ''Franchise/{{Transformers}}''.

5Major recurring guests may be referred to as their real names after some time, so for reference until a full Character Page is created:
6* [=CyberLink420=] a.k.a Luke
7* WebVideo/{{Lythero}} a.k.a Lee
8* [=MysticPyroFreak=] a.k.a Courtney
9* redasatomato a.k.a Jane
10* Rock the Jake a.k.a, well, Jake
11* [=SerenaMidori=] a.k.a Gabby
12* xthedarkone, who would seem to prefer us to ignore it until he formally announces it
13
14----
15!! Rocher Hotel contains examples of:
16* AboveTheInfluence: Frobman. And to a lesser extent, host and manager Faulerro with regard to the madness that goes on.
17* TheAlcoholic: Hosagi, as introduced in Episode 16. In the comments of the "Rocher Hotel LIVE" announcement,
18-->'''Hosagi:''' Panel... Student union... With a bar, I will not be limited this time.\
19'''Frobman:''' Hosagi, [[BigNo No!]]\
20'''Hosagi:''' Hosagi, yes!
21* AllergicToLove: A potential parody when [=CyberLink420=] plays a character sexually attracted to his opponent, and [=EileMonty=] is completely allergic to her opponent.
22* AllWomenAreLustful: Certain characters' defining feature, however it can't be good when they lunge at each other hymen first.
23* AttentionDeficitOohShiny: ''Improvability Drive'' Episode 1.
24-->'''[=GameBuddy=]:''' ''Now, I will have my revenge!'' Oh, hey. A special on sushi rolls.
25* AuthorAppeal: Manga/{{Kinnikuman}} for Frob. When he has to host his own episode while Faulerro is away, Faulerro leaves Frob a message ''not'' to do a Kinnikuman episode. He does it anyway.
26* BadassAdorable: redasatomato [[DeathbringerTheAdorable will]] [[CuteAndPsycho fuck]] [[LaughingMad your]] [[TheFakeCutie shit]] [[EvilRedhead up]].
27* BananaPeel: In the first TournamentArc in Episode 2, xthedarkone plays someone perpetually slipping on these.
28* BerserkButton: Many, many, many. . .
29** Mentioning Toys/{{Amiibo}} after Episode 13 will almost always piss off Luke. PlayedForLaughs, obviously.
30--->'''Faulerro:''' ''I'm afraid to say the Amiibo gag will never ever diiiie, sorry Luke!''
31** Frob's Dice Rolls are [[XMustNotWin never fun for]] [[ButtMonkey xthedarkone]]. This is subverted over time, as, after overdramatizing the whopping two times he rolled twos in Episode 6, he's been on a ''winning'' streak.
32** Kaggy did a ''VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV'' heist with xthedarkone once. The results are [[NeverLiveItDown never to]] [[StuffBlowingUp be lived down.]]
33** [=KrookedGlasses=]'s responses to ''What's the Verdict?'' are always wrong. This doesn't end well.
34** Lee, [[PungeonMaster Master of Puns]], goes off on Faulerro and X when he hears the Music/TenaciousD song "Lee".
35--->'''xthedarkone:''' I have a friend named Lee~\
36'''Lythero:''' [[FriendshipDenial I'm not your friend.]]
37* BigBad: [[spoiler:W. T. Funchinson.]]
38* BigNo: In Episode 16, after Kaggy deflects an imitator by saying "I don't have fangirls, [[ThatCameOutWrong I have children]]", it's Hosagi's turn.
39-->'''Hosagi:''' [[Creator/JimmySavile Now then, now then.]] From one Kaggy to another Kaggy--\
40'''xthedarkone:''': NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!\
41'''Hosagi:''' ''[with X screaming in background]'' --we need to talk about user base.\
42'''xthedarkone:''' [[PunctuatedForEmphasis Don't! Do!]] [[DepravedKidsShowHost Jimmy Savile]]!
43* BrickJoke
44** Episode 16: Hosagi's return revives all the gags he left with. Between Episode 10 and The Lost Hamster, he got together with the old boss-eyed veteran.
45** Episode 28: Hosagi puts in a request for a round entitled [[spoiler: Rocher Trail,]] and the joke of its existence will make little sense to those who hadn't already seen The Lost Hamster.
46* TheButlerDidIt: During the second ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'', Frobman is killed fairly early on, showing that no one is safe. The culprit is [[spoiler:[=Mecha-Frobman=]]].
47* ButtMonkey: Kaggy, in addition to half Faulerro's portrayal of [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Knuckles]]. Kaggy, in particular, has been one of the few to be physically mutilated on multiple occasions, losing both his body hair and nipples. As cited by the cast,
48-->'''Faulerro:''' Being Kaggy is suffering.
49* CallBack: Happens every so often, but outside of {{Running Gag}}s, there's also jokes that take advantage of the Improv setting and lack of a consistent formula to make these happen within a short period of time. For example:
50-->'''Faulerro:''' 'You can only reach orgasm if ''VideoGame/BanjoKazooie'' music is playing in the background.'\
51'''[=CyberLink420=]:''' False, I've managed to get ''[[VideoGame/MetalGearRisingRevengeance Revengeance]]'' music in there over the years.\
52'''Faulerro:''' Two points! [=SerenaMidori=]: 'You try to eat at least one gerbil per week.'\
53'''[=SerenaMidori=]:''' Well, I try, but don't tell anyone my diet's been kind of off lately.\
54'''[=CyberLink420=]:''' Oh my God, do you try.\
55'''[=SerenaMidori=]:''' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=662JyNLVpxE Oh my God, do I try~!]]\
56'''Faulerro:''' Half a point. Kaggy!\
57'''Kaggy:''' Yes, good sir.\
58'''Faulerro:''' 'You love statements relating to your junk.'\
59''[[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dp5bb7k88aA This plays]]]''\
60'''[=CyberLink420=]:''' ''[moans]'' Oh, yeah. Oh, oh, oh.\
61'''Kaggy:''' You know that's the kind of statement I like coming from my junk.
62* CardBattleGame: When xthedarkone became Patron, [[NoManShouldHaveThisPower he was allowed to invent his own game]]. This is what he chose.
63* CerebusSyndrome:
64** Episode 7 is a fun episode in its first half, even most of its second if you can get around [[spoiler: X vs redasatomato, where X has to play his angry persona into whatever shit it gets him in, and the conclusion of a father brutally murdering his daughter while she gasps out how "death is the best gift you could have given me".]] This podcast is fun.
65** Episode 20's ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'' is essentially about [[spoiler: X committing ''genocide'' on Frobman's family line. At least he won't suffer through any more dice rolls...]]
66* ChillyReception: The first official episode is a {{pun}} on this, thanks to a scene involving X rocketing off at the speed of sound [[ToiletHumour after eating a bowl of chilli]].
67* CluelessMystery: Though not technically true, every other ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'' plays out as though it were.
68* CorruptTheCutie: What xthedarkone thinks Rocher Hotel has done to redasatomato in Episode 12 and how it got its name. [[spoiler: Quickly [[SubvertedTrope subverted]] into a funny moment.]]
69* CriminallyAttractive: ''A Date to Die For'' is a dating game show with three bachelor(ette)s, one of whom is a murderer going to kill them. In one game, Kaggy knows redasatomato is the killer, he just can't help himself.
70* CuteAndPsycho:
71** The highlight of Jane/redasatomato's persona.
72** One interpretation of [=CyberLink420=]'s role assignment in Episode 23. He answers every Psych question as grim and faux serious as possible, so, of course, Faulerro makes him [[spoiler: a hamster]]. He even reverses the voice modifier he was using for questions as the role.
73* DespairEventHorizon: Usually crossed by the guests or their casual personas when they have it hammered in that Frobman and Faulerro relinquish absolute power on the show.
74-->'''xthedarkone:''' Frob, do you secretly hate me?!\
75'''Faulerro:''' [[EverybodyKnewAlready There's nothing secret about it.]]
76* DudeNotFunny: Though it's by and far not for kids, it was decided the conclusion to Attack on Silkies ''still'' needed to be censored. However, it was a decision they agreed on democratically, with the uncensored reactions of the cast thoroughly implying [[CrossesTheLineTwice just how far they went]].
77* EatingOptional: [=CyberLink420=] refuses to eat in Episode 15, [[SubvertedTrope but then begins hallucinating]].
78-->'''Luke:''' The tree says we should go left!\
79'''Gabby:''' The tree says left? Why are we listening to the trees?\
80'''Luke:''' The tree speaks Swedish and so do I!
81* EstablishingCharacterMoment: Everyone introduces themselves each episode. [=CyberLink420=] and [=MysticPyroFreak=] usually open with quotes, xthedarkone [[VulgarHumour props his cock up]], [[TheStoic Frob]] says "Good evening. I hope you enjoy your stay here.", Lee says [[PungeonMaster something stupid]], and most everyone else has no idea what's going on.
82* EverythingIsRacist: Especially anyone from the U.K.
83* EvilCounterpart: Mecha-Frobman to Frobman. Either are easily coerced to switch sides, however, with Mecha-Frobman's programming to "eliminate all humans" being the one real difference in their personalities. Even so, the order doesn't state "eliminate all humans immediately", so Frobman can send the immortal robot to its room when it starts to be a nuisance. [[spoiler: Unless one has taken the other's place.]]
84* FailureKnight: Mystic Pyro Freak may be {{Genre Savvy}} to murder mysteries and narration, but she ultimately cannot change the outcome until the killer is isolated. [[spoiler: The utter failure of her {{Psychic Powers}} in the third [[FallenHero throw her over the edge by the fourth]], where [[JerkAss xthedarkone]] and [[BigBad W. T. Funchinson]] easily coerce her distraught mind into enacting her second cycle of murders.]]
85* GroundhogDayLoop: Inferred with Faulerro's love of [[VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry Higurashi]] and a "Mr. Funchinson"'s involvement with every ''Murder Mystery Masquerade''. Would also explain how several members have memories of themselves being killed off multiple times.
86* HiddenInPlainSight: In Trailing Off Into Suffering, much to the belated distress of a sexually harassed Courtney. It turns out [[ItMakesSenseInContext the banana she aimed to win from being used in an exceedingly perverse pinball machine]] was open for the taking from the start.
87* HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: Episode 23's take on Waluigi in the {{Tournament Arc}}.
88* HurricaneOfPuns: Lee and Faulerro in ''What's the Verdict?'' frequently result in this.
89* IAmLegion: Inverted and inevitably parodied with the game ''We Are One'' started in the pilot, wherein a guest is selected to be imitated by the others leading to some. . . unusual and interesting scenes. Audiences await the redasatomato edition.
90* ImpliedDeathThreat: After [=CyberLink420=] explains why ''VideoGame/DevilMayCry2'' is the [[BlatantLies greatest game ever made]], Lythero makes one.
91-->'''Lee:''' Luke, are you going to [[FanConvention AlCon]]?\
92'''Luke:''' Not anymore, I'm not!
93* {{Improv}}: The whole point of the podcast.
94* InstantAwesomeJustAddMecha: In Episode 7, Rashinban vs Sparky The Android is resolved with a Mecha bout [[RecycledWithAGimmick in space]].
95* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: Half the cast come off at this when an episode starts, but come to be invested in the plot and helping each other by the end.
96* KarmicDeath: In Episode 7's Personality TournamentArc, Kaggy's persona is Sonic the Hedgehog while Kage-Ichihashi is on a quest to collect Toys/{{Amiibo}}s for her dead idol. After running around and gloating about how he can go anywhere he wants almost instantly, he is doomed to be frozen and passed around by overzealous fans for eternity, or until Toys/{{Amiibo}}s go out of style. [[spoiler: This will never happen.]]
97* LamePunReaction:
98-->'''Kaggy:''' Goddammit, Lee!
99* LargeHam: Sea Dingo as a sports announcer translated into a video game in Episode 18's ''A Date to Die For''.
100* LaughTrack: Rocher Hotel was recorded in front of a live cast.
101* LemonyNarrator: Forcefully [[InvokedTrope invoked]] by Mystic Pyro Freak when she tries to call out the [[GenreSavvy disembodied voice she hears]] narrating the adventures and subsequent murders of her friends. He responds by making her fall on her face and [[DeathByGenreSavviness tossing her off cliffs]].
102* LetsYouAndHimFight: A surprisingly straight and manipulative example in the third ''Murder Mystery Masquerade''. At one point the murderer is suspected by Lee and Kaggy, but are overruled by the others. Then, it's pointed out how all the murders are based on puns, turning Kaggy (and everyone else) on Lee.
103* LockedOutOfTheLoop: Due to the massive amount of references, it would be impossible for everyone to know every instance of one made. If they don't say they don't get it, it can build up until their personal [[TheReveal reveal]], or to accidentally make it worse. The former has been enacted by [[WebVideo/CodeMent PurpleEyes]][[WebVideo/NonePiece WTF]] in "The Heist", the latter by Kaggy in "The Lost Hamster".
104* LogicalFallacies: [=MysticPyroFreak=]'s most common defense for being accused of murder is to say she already was one and that it would be lazy writing to put it back on her, [[spoiler: despite using this defense during a situation where she ''was'' the murderer.]]
105* LuckBasedMission: Several in fact.
106** ''What's the Verdict?'' has guests try to read Faulerro's mind and give either the correct answer, or at least an entertaining one. The latter doesn't always help, though.
107** Many of the TournamentArc segments come down to this as well. Frob deciding the victor by rolling a pair of dice and using the higher result. HilarityEnsues.
108--->'''Frob:''' Dice roll, ''go!''
109* MachineMonotone: How Mystic Pyro Freak speaks in the first ''Murder Mystery Masquerade''. Also how one defines Frob's [[TheStoic stoicism]].
110* ManBehindTheMan: In Episode 20, [[spoiler: crosses over with {{Hijacked by Ganon}} as both xthedarkone manipulated Mystic Pyro Freak AND was assisted by [[BigBad W. T. Funchinson.]]]]
111* MrExposition:
112-->'''Hosagi:''' ''[off Website/{{Wikipedia}}]'' 'The Oregon Trail was laid by fur trappers and traders from about 1811 to 1840 and was only passable on foot or by horseback. By 1836, when the first migrant wagon train was organized...'
113* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: [[spoiler:[[MemeticBadass JOHN! CENA!]]]]
114* NeverLiveItDown: [[InvokedTrope Invoked]] in a game of ''What's the Verdict?'' from Episode 2.
115-->'''Faulerro:''' [=CyberLink420=]?\
116'''[=CyberLink420=]:''' Yeeeeees?\
117'''Faulerro:''' 'You really wish you thought of a better username.'\
118'''[=CyberLink420=]:''' False, because [[SubvertedTrope the original username was worse]].
119* NewPowersAsThePlotDemands: After the second ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'', Mystic Pyro Freak gained the ability to become a disembodied voice. This carried over into the third game where she hoped to counter the narrator and save her friends with her newfound power. For the results, see FailureKnight above.
120* NoodleIncident: Lots can happen in between the times the Skype call starts and the recording starts. A Karaoke round is referenced as having occurred during one of the earlier episodes' preludes and Faulerro has [[TeasingCreator promised to make that]] [[EmptyPromise into an official round]].
121* OfficialCouple: Ever interrupting [[ShipperOnDeck Jane's shipping]] as several guests are married couples.
122* OurNudityIsDifferent: Thanks to the wonder of audio.
123* ThePasswordIsAlwaysSwordfish: In Episode 6, Lee has to recall a password to tell a sentry blocking his path. It turns out to be [[spoiler: "Password"]].
124* PosthumousNarration: Despite not being present for Episode 21, [=CyberLink420=].exe, a soundboard recording of over a dozen phrases and terms he'd recorded and left for Faulerro and Frobman ''was'' present, received an interview, sarcastically heckling guests, and putting his foot in his mouth as though he'd never been gone. He has since [[TalkingToThemself regretted this action]].
125* PungeonMaster:
126** Lee/"Lythero".
127--->'''Lee:''' I'll use my ''frying'' pan... as a ''drying'' pan! [[OneTrackMindedHunger And cook some eggs because I'm really hungry.]]\
128'''Singing Faulerro:''' Sha bada ba baaa! Sha bada ba baaa! ''Shut up, Lee!''\
129'''Lee:''' Oh.
130** [=RockTheJake=] tries to put a pun in his every introduction.
131** Frobman takes up the roll in Episode 22 whenever Aladdin should "Game Over". Keep in mind, this occurs when he chooses to do ''nearly anything'' not directly related to progressing the story. [[DespairEventHorizon In a room filled with a dozen objects.]]
132--->'''Courtney:''' Frob, you are a sadist!
133* ReadingTheStageDirectionsOutLoud: During Episode 5's Sonic Adventure In Brief, xthedarkone vocalizes ''dramatic zooms''.
134-->'''X:''' ''Mystic ''['''unholy noise''']'' Ruins''\
135'''Frobman:''' Do your spit take before reading.
136* RealLifeWritesThePlot: Because {{Improv}}, guests who can make it, and assigned personality roles.
137-->'''Faulerro:''' 'You are a very masculine technician who specializes in pain.'\
138'''[=SerenaMidori=]:''' Yeah, but what's my gimmick?\
139'''Faulerro:''' It's one of those RealLife things.
140* TheReasonYouSuckSpeech: In Episode 7, it's more of a "The Reason You Suck ''Dialogue''". [[spoiler:Doubles for many, including the cast, as a TearJerker.]]
141* RecycledScript: [[invoked]] The ''Recycling Round'' uses old scripts of its guests, such as "VideoGame/SonicAdventure [[TheAbridgedSeries In Brief]]" cold read by the guests. Most notable for being one of the few ''non''-{{Trivia}} examples of the trope.
142* ReferenceOverdosed: Faulerro specifically punishes guests who make obvious references.
143-->'''Faulerro:''' 'During the night, you get up to pee exactly 116 times.'\
144'''Kaggy:''' It's actually [[Anime/DragonBallZ over 9000 times]]. You're a ''little'' bit off.\
145'''Faulerro:''' You... lose a point.
146* RotatingProtagonist:
147** Along with an EnsembleCast, every dog truly can have their day. The ButtMonkey of one episode can be comedy gold or truest of heroes in another skit by way of the cards they're dealt. Or, in cases such as ''Stories of Wabilgerath'', both at once.
148** In addition, the ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'' event hosts a rotating antagonist each game.
149* RousingSpeech
150** Episode 13 has Kaggy make one. [[SubvertedTrope After giving it]], [[TheyKilledKennyAgain he dies]].
151** In Episode 23's [[TournamentArc Personality Tournament]], [=CyberLink420=] gives one as the intended [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1 Shulk]] to the actual one ([=BuffaloKazu=]), giving the latter the confidence to pull through despite having never played ''VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1''.
152* RunningGag: See Berserk Button for several, but many more exist.
153** Frob's monotone and the unspoken belief amongst guests that he is a total sociopath. [[spoiler: Formally confirmed by him in Episode 20.]]
154** Kaggy helped innovate the term "Kaggying up", first used during a heist that was going perfectly well, only to go up in a fiery blaze in a matter of moments.
155** Faulerro's jingles which pay homage to specific members of the cast.
156--->'''Singing Faulerro:''' Sha bada ba baaa! Sha bada ba baaa! ''Shut up, Lee!''
157** "FOOKIN' EXX!"
158** In ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'', Kaggy must die. Outside of ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'', Kaggy still must die.
159** X and ToiletHumour are stuck together like two sheets of flypaper.
160** [=SerenaMidori=] wants a WebVideo/{{Markiplier}} body pillow, Markiplier paint, Markiplier posters, Markiplier [[StalkerShrine scented candles]], Markiplier in the podcast [[ActuallyIAmHim disguised as CyberLink]], [[OverlyLongGag and so on, and so on]].
161** Mutton sandwiches.
162** The highest quality music that appears on the show is what comes live. . . from [=CyberLink=]'s Ocarina.
163** [[spoiler:"''It's an Orange''"]]
164* ScrewTheRulesIMakeThem: Despite ten options for each of the second Personality Battle, most answers were the guests going off the grid or combining the answers together. Frob was not pleased.
165* SerialEscalation: With ''Murder Mystery Masquerade''. Despite having fairly simple set rules, only the first in Episode 5 followed them.
166** In Episode 10, And Then There Was Bum, [[spoiler:TheButlerDidIt, although the real butler had been killed beforehand so Mecha-Frobman could take his place]].
167** In Episode 15, Lee Must DIE, [[spoiler:there are multiple members involved in the killings, though still only one murderer]].
168** In Episode 20, Hickory Dickory Frob, the killer set traps beforehand and they must survive in the mansion until morning. [[spoiler:In addition, the one who set the traps was manipulated to do so by [[ManBehindTheMan another guest]] and [[HijackedByGanon W. T. Funchinson]].]]
169** In Episode 25, Return to Rocher Manor, [[spoiler:the papers giving people their assignments on the spot were fake. Faulerro told the killer who they were beforehand]].
170* ShipperOnDeck: Jane a.k.a redasatomato.
171* ShoutOut: While some episodes are specifically stated to be based around a certain series, and guests forced to imitate characters, several slightly more subtle shout outs exist within.
172** The episode where [[spoiler:the guests can't identify a murderer and are ultimately all killed off by one who faked their death]] is titled "[[Literature/AndThenThereWereNone And Then There Was Bum]]".
173** A completely improv-ed and unorganized shout out via [[Franchise/AceAttorney "OBJECTION!"]] is made in Episode 16 when [[spoiler: Hosagi finds a contradiction with the times Simply Proto says he was in the kitchen,]] leading to xthedarkone making the quote followed by "You're just talking a bunch of shit!"
174** Due to the creator's fan appreciation towards ''VisualNovel/HigurashiWhenTheyCry'' and the consistent presence of a single entity behind every ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'', one can easily infer that where this will [[CerebusSyndrome eventually take the podcast]].
175** Frobman gave a Shout-Out to Website/TVTropes and the very editors of said wiki at the end of Episode 23, featuring a Personality Battle that went on for over an hour on its own.
176* SirSwearsALot: xthedarkone in any and every roll. He plays a dog in a child-friendly ComicStrip/{{Buck Rogers}} spoof at one point:
177-->'''xthedogone:''' Fuckin' ''WOOOOOOOF!''
178* TheStinger:
179** [[spoiler:''"It's an Orange!"'']]
180** At the end of the second Personality Battle Arc in Episode 23, the 100 second scene where [[spoiler:Wario approaches a defeated and dying Waluigi, telling him that he would have fought alongside him. Waluigi's consciousness fades as his brother holds him, the music crescendos, and [[MyGreatestFailure Wario]] [[SayMyName screams his brother's name]]... and then [[DeathIsCheap a 1-Up sound effect plays]], Waluigi's [[NotQuiteDead revived energetic as ever]], and the episode ends for real.]]
181%%* TheStoic: Frobman
182%%* StraightMan: Frobman
183* {{Stripperiffic}}: Episode 6 is named "[[RuleOfSexy There's Always A Sexy Option]]" for good reason. Even after the Patron poll in Episode 19, some people didn't vote on behalf of the contestants, but the [[MorePopularSpinoff Sexy Option]].
184* StudioAudience: The other guests become this when they aren't involved in the skit.
185* SuicideIsPainless: When Episode 30 kicks off with a ''We Are One'' skit featuring Jane as the center, [=SorcererLance=] surprisingly [[LovableSexManiac doesn't make it sexual.]] He instead plays the role of a rotten fruit who's ready for Jane to "pull the plug".
186* SwitchToEnglish: At the start of Episode 22 after some [[MediaNotes/AnimeFanSpeak Anime Fan Speak]].
187* TakeThatAudience: After Faulerro uses his Monokuma voice in the Street Fighter: Movie sketch,
188-->'''[=MysticPyroFreak=]:''' [[ANaziByAnyOtherName YouTube commenters]] are satisfied.
189* TalkingToThemself:
190** Done interestingly in Episode 1 where xthedarkone plays both two guards talking to each other about the probable break in. See ToiletHumour.
191** Frobman talking to a rebellious teenage Mecha-Frobman to not kill people in the tournament and go to his room. [[spoiler:It works.]]
192** [=CyberLink420=] now has serious competition for [[VideoGame/XenobladeChronicles1 who feels it most]], [[ForTheEvulz mocks others]], and [[DemotedToExtra has more dialogue]]: [=CyberLink420=].exe, [[APupilOfMineUntilHeTurnedToEvil his own soundboard]].
193* ThatCameOutWrong: If this wasn't the case, we'd have to seriously consider Hamster-shaped dildos, fruit having periods, Kaggy having children crawling all over him, and glowing owl buttplugs as realistic concepts.
194* TitleSequence:
195-->'''Singing Faulerro:''' Greetings and welcome to Rocher Hotel! It's accommodation, entertainment as well! You've got to show off your voiceyness and witty retorts, amidst all the noisiness that Frobbles records! You all can settle the score in an improvable war, so enjoy your stay here at the place near Podcast Hell! Welcome to Rocher Hoteeeeel!
196* ToiletHumour: [[SirSwearsALot xthedarkone walked into a podcast.]] [[DieLaughing There were no survivors.]]
197* Troperiffic: ''Improvability Drive'' and the ''{{Tournament Arc}}s'' can be seen as attaching a trope or two to each person and watching the {{improv}} chaos play out.
198* VocalDissonance: In Episode 10:
199-->'''Sean:''' Stewardess!\
200'''[[OxymoronicBeing Energetic Frobman]]:''' Yeeeeees?
201* WeAreExperiencingTechnicalDifficulties: Happens every so often with Faulerro's vanishing scripts and assignments and with [[WebVideo/CodeMent PurpleEyes]][[WebVideo/NonePiece WTF]] both times he's appeared.
202* WhamLine: Happens every so often.
203** Episode 13:
204--->'''Kaggy:''' [[spoiler:Can ''you'' spare a nickel? Hm?]]
205** Episode 20 several near the end:
206--->'''Faulerro:''' [[spoiler:The storm has stopped already.]]
207** And again.
208-->'''The Culprit:''' All I had to do was feign a little sarcasm here, say a few [[spoiler:[[SomethingOnlyTheyWouldSay "Shiiiiit!"'s]]]] there.
209* WhatCouldPossiblyGoWrong: Stated in every ''Murder Mystery Masquerade'', usually someone gets offed.
210-->'''Faulerro:''' Forwards you go! No looking back! [[TemptingFate What's the worst that could happen?]] ...xthedarkone starts telling a dirty joke.\
211 '''Xthedarkone:''' So, hey, okay, thi-- this nun, right, with the... [[AwfulBritishSexComedy biggest vagina]]--
212* WhereIWasBornAndRazed: Implied when you're specialty is pain and you hail from [[HatedHometown Sadist Town]], though we tropers [[FantasticRacism could be racist]].
213* YouDontLookLikeYou: Episode 25 includes a visual recording of all participants in a room, rather than being represented by Frob's sexy artwork.
