Welp, I can quote myself.

Endless Sea wrote:Aaand I do believe I have trope ideas! (I'll write my own character description once Cthulhu bites it.)

*ahem* Large Ham, Brilliant but Lazy, Failure Knight, Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny, Can't Keep Up, Deadpan Snarker, Evil Laugh, Drop-In Character, Troll, Jerkass, Teasing Creator, Nice Guy, "Just Joking" Justification, Asperger's Syndrome, Cluster F-Bomb, Sanity Slippage, The Insomniac...

Whew. That's all I can remember/think of at the moment. Are those okay?


Scarab wrote:Added several of Endless's suggestions and added one more for BlackWolfe.


...Not enough of them, though. Maybe I'll elaborate. (Now edited for relevance!)

Large Ham: He has his moments. Often. Mostly in the chats and the coffee room, but it seeps into his normal posts too.

Brilliant but Lazy: According to him, emphasis on the lazy. This trope is apparently the main reason why he doesn't participate more in the ARG, besides his schoolwork.

Attention Deficit Ooh Shiny/TVTropes Will Ruin Your Life: Spends hours upon hours distracted with randomly browsing the internet rather than doing something productive for the ARG (or school). Apparently, this is normal for him.

Can't Keep Up: Took a two-week leave of absence to try and finish some homework in early October. By the end of it, he was both completely unable to follow the ARG (even with the timeline) and even more behind in homework than before.
* Drop-In Character: Resolved himself to browsing the Off-Topic forum and occasionally commenting in the chats as a result.

The Cynic: His first reaction to many new developments tended to be "We're screwed". Notably, called Don Quixote an idiot for trying to remove a bullet he'd been shot with himself, saying he'd probably die from blood loss or disease.

Evil Laugh: Allegedly practiced it for the entirety of high school. It shows up in some of his hammier moments.

Troll: Self-proclaimed; he says he finds driving his fellow Metaguards up a wall highly amusing, although he tries to curb it whenever he crosses too far over the line.

Jerkass: Whenever called out on making an insensitive remark, his reply can usually be summed up thus: "Yeah, funny thing about that- I'm kind of a dick. What, you're just noticing?"

Teasing Creator: He's fond of referencing details or roleplaying characters from stories he's worked on or plans to work on in his comments, but doesn't always give proper context.

Nice Guy: Tries to fit this role whenever he isn't playing up his dickishness a thousandfold.

"Just Joking" Justification: Has cracked more than a few jokes in the forums that ended up being recieved far worse than he'd expected.

Cluster F-Bomb: In his own words, a recovering swearaholic. Showed up more during the later acts of the ARG.

Determinator: Because of his self-professed regret for being such a slacker when it came to the ARG and schoolwork, he decided that nothing would stop him from finishing his Cthulhu fic. When told the deadline had passed during one of his updates in the chatroom, he replied with "THAT'S MORE THAN ENOUGH TIME" and promptly returned to writing. Cue the entire chat worrying about his mental health until he clarified he was hamming it up as usual... and returned to writing again.

The Insomniac: Not to the degree of, say, Sicon, but his sleep schedule is apparently... erratic. Half of his comments were posted in the middle of the night, long after prior announcements of going to sleep.

Caustic Critic: When a Metaguard asked him to review his Cthulhu fic, he started with an apology, ended with a reminder that his opinion isn't necessarily everyone else's, and absolutely tore the entire fic to bloody shreds in the middle. There were no survivors.

Buffy Speech: Some of his comments include apologies at the end for their awkward wording.

Sir Swears-a-lot: He does swear a lot.

Nah, can't be. I've already got Cluster F-Bomb. (Still waiting for the description updates, though.)

In that case, I'd like Gosh Dang It To Heck, since I had to edit my cover of "Making Metaguards Out Of You" in order to even sing it.

Well, In light of the reveals going on... As this can now be said in the open: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=842&view=unread#p36516

I'd like to ask for a description update on my Sequence Break entry. ^_^ From a strictly in-game PoV, yes that was a sequence break unprompted research and all that, but /spoilers/The GMs anticipated it and where ready, so it was a subverted sequence break!/spoilers/

Yeah... I'm still kind of asking around for tropes :/

Eli mentioned that you have quite the musical taste, but I don't know if I should somehow link to Crowning Music of Awesome or what...

So... if any of you guys can help me with this, I'd greatly appreciate it. Also, tropes for Enlil, since he only has one (Come on guys, he helped solved the locator puzzle! And got 2 echoes! And got a wall piece! (actually, wanted to add for science, but not sure if it fits (wow, nested parenthesis, I'm so weird )))

I do enjoy music (the soundtrack thread is probably my most-frequented behind Train of Thought), but I don't think it counts as Awesome music since I didn't really do anything connected to the ARG.

Well, I won't argue. I think it was Dryu who first called me one, but hey, I admit that I kind of do Loves You And Everybody except with Tsundere-ishness instead of straight out "love"...

Come on, guys, I've been asking for a while for my tropes to be edited now. At least tell me what's wrong with the ones I'm asking for, if you've got any problems.
