I mean, What An Idiot can theoretically apply on a show like Survivor where there's a narrative achieved through editing; the issue was people using it for gameshows like Jeopardy.

[up]Exactly.

The crowner was for non-scripted game shows, not reality competition shows. Removing reality show examples because of it would be a gross overreach.

Crown Description:

There has been concerns about game show contestants being troped as most game shows aren't staged like Reality TV shows are. This crowner's purpose is to decide whether or not game show contestants can be tropes.

Voting UP means "Yes they are Real Life and shouldn't be troped." and voting Down means "No, they are fictional enough to be troped."
