"TV Tropes is a wiki[2] which collects and expands on various conventions and devices (tropes) found within creative works. Since its establishment in 2004, the site has gone from covering only television and film tropes to those in a number of other media.[3][4] It is known for approaching topics in a casual tone[5] — author Bruce Sterling once described its style as "wry fanfic analysis."[6]" ~Wikipedia
"What is this about? This wiki is a catalog of the tricks of the trade for writing fiction.
Tropes are devices and conventions that a writer can reasonably rely on as being present in the audience members' minds and expectations. On the whole, tropes are not clichés. The word clichéd means "stereotyped and trite." In other words, dull and uninteresting. We are not looking for dull and uninteresting entries. We are here to recognize tropes and play with them, not to make fun of them." ~TvTropes Main Page
TvTropes.org
This is one of my favorite websites

It could still use a lot more updating by the day, though.
Exactly why didn't they update some of the threads in need of it, i have no idea as of yet.

It could be that they may be too busy fighting against impossible odds and punching out Cthulu, only to realize that their arms are shattering for months straight.
Or maybe they're too busy gathering recruits for the site, since their fighting forces are in need of a military drive, or something like that, as they battle God-Mode Villain Sues and the like.

As long as they don't touch the sacred Quirky Mini Boss Squad, I'm fine with their pithy actions.

Indeed, there are many beloved Squads, but none are held in higher esteem than . . .  Though granted, the Bleach Captains were pretty good until they stopped trying to kill Ichigo and Co.
