Troper Five Man Bands

From this post by Zephid in the shipping thread:

Fawriel is The Lancer to Nornagest's The Hero and Karalora's The Chick (Action Girl in all likelihood). Don't ask me who The Big Guy and The Smart Guy are

Comes the Troper Five-Man Band game!

List your preffered Five-Man Band of Tropers!

I would start if I had one, but eh. *shrug*

Team Crush The Weak

You / My Fist / My Foot / Your Face / Your Groin

So, wait, Matrix's groin is The Big Guy?

Of course not. Matrix's groin is The Chick. My fist is the Big Guy.

I'm rather tempted to ask for a justification for each of those. Also, I tried making one for the TCG team, but I couldn't come up with a specific 5.

Team TCG

The Hero: Matrix
The Lancer and The Smart Guy: Ironeye
The Big Guy: Vampire Buddha
The Chick: Kyler Thatch or Bobby G

That work?

I can see why you put me and you where you did on team TCG, but I'm still confuzzled about the others...and Team Mathematica, for that matter.

I do like the idea.

I'm missing one in Team Magnificent Bastard right now. Might post that later.

Actually, now that the seed's sown, maybe other people can post their versions.

Well, for Team TCG,

Vampire Buddha was the one not either of us who contributed the most, followed by Kyler Thatch and Bobby G, I think.

As for Mathematica,

AOD is the most vocal about his love of math, and started the thread asking why lots of people hate math. Well AOD is vocal about everything, really. And he has lots of Drills.

Tangent is The Lancer because he too obviously loves math, but isn't as vocal about it as AOD.

As for Brickman, well that name just screams Big Guy.

GMH doesn't fit any of the other categories, and has a general air of intelligence.

And you, Ironeye, well you are always acting femmy and cute with me. :D

Interestingly, Mathematica is the name of a computational software package used widely in science, maths, and engineering.

I was waiting for someone to make [AOD]'s comment.

>.> this will be interesting to watch...

Wait, wait, first someone calls me a "Team Mom", then someone else calls me "The Lancer"?

I'm not sure whether to feel confused or honored!

10 million Wiki Dollars to the first one who makes a Team Cynic, a Team Pollyanna and films an epic about the eternal war between them.

If there's going to be a Team Cynic, I damn well better be on it.

Well, i think i should play bass guitar and -

What do you mean, not that kind of band!?

Oh, oh! I can be The Lancer for Team Polyanna, alright! Ruthie A would have to be The Hero then, though. Which is fine, because Team Polyanna is all about the equality, yo!

And, Matrix, before you ask...

Just make Matrix The Chick. We all know it'll make him happy.

And no, Darth Matrix, you don't get to be on Team Cynicism. Just wanting to rape people randomly makes you Ax-Crazy, not cynical.

I'm probably in team pollyanna, if there's still room. I'm not all sunshine and happiness, but I have ideals.

[Ed.] My avatar looks hilarious in context of this post, just noticed.

Much as Jethro and I tend to butt heads, I must admit he'd be a good candidate for Smart Guy or The Lancer for Team Pollyanna.

Whichever position let's me put a move on fawriel

Last time I checked, wasn't being a Celibate Hero pretty much mandatory for anyone but The Hero or The Chick?

...Team Pollyanna is also all about love for everyone!
