15. FanFic.A Glad Day: aversion, cut as ZCE

21. Recap.Albedo Erma Felna EDF Battle Of Derzon: aversion

24. Characters.Alien 1: pothole, so misused and cut, but right in spirit
25. Film.Alien 3: aversion
26. Film.Alien Abduction Incident In Lake County: "Partial aversion. The little girl is among those missing but it's hinted she may be in league with the aliens or at least possessed." Not sure what to make of that.

48. Film.Amityville Its About Time: correct
49. Characters.Amnesia A Machine For Pigs: aversion
50. Creator.Amoridere: "She plays with this." ZCE

Also, many subversion ave vague enough that they may be aversions instead, and pets and animal were lumped int the Alien examples, is there a trope for that?

In short, we have enough cleaning up to do that it might be worth a rename. Any thoughts?

That's a start, thanks. What should be renamed? I noticed that you wrote in one of your ZCE removals that aversions of Infant Immortality are not noteworthy. Actually they are, now troped under Death of a Child.

I proposed the rename "Improbable Infant Immortality", which keeps Added Alliterative Appeal and clarifies the issue that led to misuse (where the lack of harm to children is inexplicable), while keeping it distinct from Wouldn't Hurt a Child and Only Fatal to Adults, which are justified by the narrative. Also contrast Harmful to Minors.

^ I like the proposed rename.

Recently removed a recently added aversion to Mass Effect: Andromeda. Misuse still remains. Can we get a rename up for a vote so we have an excuse to fully clean this up?

I like Improbable Infant Immortality as well. I'll go ahead an set up a new crowner if that option gets more consensus here first.

"Inexplicable Infant Immortality" is another possible name.

I'm going for Improbable (if only because it's slightly shorter).

Crowners need at least ten votes, it' at 12:0. I'd say we can call it.

"Improbable Infant Immortality" and "Inexplicable Infant Immortality" are two options, any other ideas for a rename?

Bumping a stalled thread.

Since we've unanimously agreed to a rename, can we put possible renames onto a crowner so we can move to the next stage?

I linked a crowner for you.

I don't like having "Immortality" in the name. Something like "Improbable Infant Survival" is more up front about the trope definition.

We lose out on Added Alliterative Appeal, but eh.

Now that you mention it, agreed. "Immortality" still sort-of gives off the impression that the trope is an absolute rule, rather just than a common convention with many subversions. "Survival" works better.

...though I hate to see the ol' triple A get shoved aside. Witty has always been my favourite part of the TVT Holy Trinity (my writing style leans heavily on snarky Sesquipedalian Loquaciousness, peppered with (often multilayered) puns and enough Reference Overdosed-ness to make a fandom salivate. Basically the same mischievous yet righteously outraged spirit that drove Oscar Wilde (or perhaps Marilyn Manson would be closer to the mark).

Also, added the new suggestion.

Bump for more votes. Improbable Infant Survival is leading so far.

Another bump. This crowner has been up for two months now, but only 7 people have voted on it.

Perhaps because of the wrong crowner date in the thread title.

Updated the date, hopefully it helps.

One final bump.
