Since the crowners are currently disabled (thanks a lot, DDOS assholes), I'm putting an alt titles conversation up for the YKTTW currently titled Blowing Up Index. Its purpose is essentially to split the rather long subtrope list out of Stuff Blowing Up and make it a pure trope.

I'll keep track of votes via this document on my Google Drive.

Initial suggestions:

[up] Counted.

I should note I counted the person who posted the title suggestions as an upvote so all the options began at 1 point. (Tropes That Go BOOM! was mine.)

[tdown] Your Index Asplode, Blowing Up Index, Explosive Index

Added your upvotes but the Michael Bay one seems like a bit of a Bad Trope Namer.

[up][up],[up] Counted. We now have a three-way tie between Explosive Index, Tropes Blowing Up, and Tropes That Go BOOM!. I think we can safely count Blowing Up Index out of the running (not deleting it, mind); it's at -4.

[up]Not at all. I'm following standard crowner policy and will call it if I get no activity for 72 hours at a stretch.

Wanna throw in any votes while you're here?

Of the leading trio I like Tropes That Go BOOM! best.

[down] EDIT: I know. I was foreshadowing that if there wasn't consensus, I'd revert my votes down in favour of this one.
