Is there anyone here who doesn't want First-Episode Twist? We might not need a second crowner at all.

[up] Well, I know the handful of us in discussion want it, but we may at least have a crowner anyway for the sake of the lurkers who vote in crowners but don't post in the forum.

I mean, "Early Twist" could more clearly be seen as a Universal Trope and Exactly What It Says on the Tin, though Tropes Are Flexible.

Contains 20% less fat than the leading value brand!

[up] "Early" is more vague, and as a result more likely to see misuse.

[up]I actually prefer First Part Twist over First-Episode Twist, but either works due to Tropes Are Flexible.

Was able to see what title was winning by viewing the histories.

Calling in favor of First-Episode Twist.

Well, who would've thunk it?

Alright, this means we need to re-write the description to be more twist-centric, and then change all the wicks, right?

No, everyone can see the history of crowner options, you just need to access the crowner directly.

[up] Why is the title for that one "Image Pickin" if it's a TRS crowner?

I posted a move request in the Locked Pages thread so the TRS thread can continue, and posted a notice on the discussion page.

Message sent to move the Laconic and Sandbox subpages to the new name.

Let's get to work on wick correction.

EDIT: Were my edits here correct?

[up]You don't need to use the Locked Pages thread to move Laconic and Sandbox pages. Just cut and paste the contents and cutlist the old locations (I always leave a redirect at the old location until it gets cut, since page blanking is forbidden). Mod assistance is only needed for moving pages in Main/.

Edit: I saw that nombretomado already said this on the thread's next page, so never mind.

I swapped in the sandbox for the main description. I think we are in wick cleanup mode now, and the thread can be marked as such. 705 wicks to move guys.

Crown Description:

Whether certain examples are "spoilers" is too debatable, especially when compared to "twist".
