Here are the rules. Each day, I will post a trope from TV Tropes, and each poster can name up to three examples of that trope. Whichever nomination gets the most mentions wins! Posters may also name as many Honourable Mentions as they like, but they are purely optional and will not count towards the running score. You may look at the TV Tropes page for that day's trope for examples, but you do not have to pick all your examples from the page. You can nominate whatever examples you like, as long as they qualify for the trope. Each trope will last around 24 hours before the next one goes up. In the event of a tie between 4 or more nominations, a tiebreaker poll will be run at a later date to determine a winner. Posters may also nominate any tropes they wish to see come up during the series. This is optional, and you don't have to do it every day, or at all. Tropes will be randomly selected from the list each day, except for some occasions where I will pick a thematically appropriate trope that may or may not be on the list. Here's the list of previous tropes, so if you wish to nominate some tropes, check on here that it wasn't previously done. http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Best_of_the_Trope Trope list: Lean and Mean Fat and Skinny Names to Run Away From Really Fast Identical Stranger Mood Whiplash Hostile Show Takeover The Only One Allowed to Defeat You Torch the Franchise and Run Trash the Set Grand Finale <cite>GavsEvans123 posted [p:924639360] in Best of th...

GavsEvans123 07/13/19 3:58:04 PM #3:	Today's trope is Oddball Doppelganger. Here is the link: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/77859232 At first, you'd think this character would be the long-lost twin of another character. But then you start to notice the differences. This character just seems off. It could be due to having a completely opposite personality (can be of the same alignment though doesn't have to be an Evil Twin). It could be due to exaggerating the original character's foibles. This character may even appear to be an Off-Model or otherwise deformed version of the original. Regardless, this character is like a funhouse reflection of the original - strange and distorted in possibly unimaginable ways, but still clearly patterned after the original. TL,DR: A character who's a weird copy of another character. Nominations: Bizarro (DC Comics) Fake Crash (Crash Bandicoot) Doodlebob (Spongebob Squarepants) <cite>GavsEvans123 posted [p:924639500] in Best of th...
