We can use the current one. I like the big trees and slightly smarter dorfs.

Mr. Frog, you are the rainbow factory.


-EIDT-

Yes, I will keep putting that . in your name.

[Hanslanda]

...
First that tinychat clusterfuck of insanity, and now this... My god. Its spreading like wildfire.

[Splint]

I won't lie Hans. I feel like me and Corai brainraped you.

[Mr Frog]

Mr. Frog, you are the rainbow factory.

Not sure whether that's a compliment or a subtle implication that I shoot multicoloured lasers out of my eyes, but thank you either way.

@Splint:

Smurf in my first post, asari in my second post, You-Know-What in the third... at this rate, I'll have a good fraction of the entire fictional multiverse semi-crossed-over by the time I'm done :V

@Hansie:

Aww crap, was I supposed to follow the link Splint PM'd me? I don't know why, my brain just didn't make the connection between 'guy sends me link' and 'guy wants me to click through link' :V

[Splint]

Well it's still viable if me and corai can find our links.... We were discussing the game I'm planning out and it veered into.... general wierdness, I'll leave it at that.

[Corai]

Rainbow Factory, pegasi kidnap ponies from the ground. Take them there, break their bones. Cut them open then take their color to make into rainbows.

So a compliment!

[Splint]

GENERAL WEIRDNESS was sufficen enough to explain thingst kobold.

[Mr Frog]

Incidentally, try mousing over "You-Know-What" in my previous post. I only just learned how to do that

[Hanslanda]

@Mr Frog: That would only be logical, but this is Spearbreakers, where logic dictates you must add a mug to all equations.

This is an incredibly drastic understatement.

I nominate this as a quote as well.

So who's up for a tinychat discussion on that game?

[Mr Frog]

...What the bloody hell happened at that meetup..?

E: Not me, too tired and irritable right now.

[Splint]

Combine Me and Corai, MLP, and grimdark. With poor hans just... stuck there in the middle of it all. That's where it went.

[Mr Frog]

Okay, how's this for the TVTropes article (raw markup, so don't mind the PMWiki formatting):

Spearbreakers is a DwarfFortress LetsPlay conducted on the Bay 12 Forums. It began with the ambitious goal of being the first epic fortress of 34.xx, featuring the return of Syrupleaf's [[EldritchAbomination Spawn of Holistic]] and encouraging players to participate in storytelling.

What followed was a chaotic mess of mismanagement, hypercompetent management, Spawn getting stuck on ledges, hundreds and hundreds of mugs accidentally being produced for no reason, serial medical malpractice, zombie sieges of apocalyptic proportions, and lots and lots of fanfiction, ranging in subject matter from a humble caravan guard accidentally averting the apocalypse to [[GenreShift a convoluted science-fiction plot involving planeshifting agents of corrupt interdimensional research corporations and an extremist fringe group spearheaded by a megalomaniac trying to take them down]].

Short, but I think it gets the point across.

[Splint]

There we go. I may have failed epically but hey, I tried.

[Mr Frog]

Okay, I changed the article. I'll trope it up properly in a bit, too tired right now. Might be good to post a link in the OP so that others can come in with the Wiki Magic.

The only real problem was that you kind of rambled a bit, which was exacerbated by the complete lack of a trope index (which made the writeup seem even longer). Basically, I think a trope article should just give the reader an objective description of what something is and leave it at that.
You also didn't really follow the proper structure for a works page, but I can't really blame you for that.
