Added DiffLines:

----
@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW to whomever made WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue into a SelfDemonstratingArticle.
----
@/{{Nightsky}}: Some win and an Internet for whoever wrote the image caption on UsefulNotes/TheEdwardianEra. Wasp waists indeed.
----
@/KyleJacobs: One for whoever wrote Kuja's caption on Characters/FinalFantasyIX:
->This is the face of a man [[superscript:[[ViewerGenderConfusion [citation needed] ]]]] [[XanatosSpeedChess with a plan]]
----
Tropers/{{Reflextion}}: One for Tropers/DracMonster and Tropers/{{mlsmithca}}, for this pun-tastic exchange on AskTheTropers in regards to an unfortunate troper who asked a question that belongs in LostAndFound:
->'''[=DracMonster=]:''' HULK ANGRY YOU NOT READING NOTICE AT TOP OF PAGE! HULK TELLING YOU GO LOST AND FOUND RIGHT NOW!
->'''mlsmithca:''' 'S like they say here on ATT all the time: no-one can ignore a big green Banner...

1810072342: A particularly fine piece from WarpThatAesop, just to show that they haven't changed over time:
--> ''Braveheart'': English people are '''EVIL!'''
--> ''The Patriot'': English people are ''still'' '''EVIL!'''

And it might just be my familiarity with the game the image was taken from and the issue the page presents, but the page image for CasualCompetitiveConflict is also great.
----
Tropers/{{Earnest}}: One to Tropers/{{eroock}} for the picture on NamelessNarrative. Who'd have thought a movie's credits would be a perfect illustration of a trope?
----
@/{{TheWildWestPyro}}: To whoever made the trope page for the best Disney/{{Frozen}} fanfic I have ever read, ''FanFic/FrozenHearts'', I hereby award you a Made Of Win for your hard work.
----
Maso Tey: To olicool10 for folderizing the QuoteBin. A good idea always looks obvious in retrospect...
----
@/{{SpiriTsunami}}: To @/{{sinesofinsanity}} for the relative populations of the [[UsefulNotes/CanadianProvincesAndTerritories Canadian provinces]].
----
{{Tropers/Reiko Kazama}}: A BIG Made Of Win to whoever did ''[[SelfDemonstrating.SpyroTheDragonClassic this]]''! YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW HAPPY I AM ASDFGHJKL *{{squee}}*
----
1810072342: A good pat on the back and slice of cake for whoever provided the page quote for ElementalPowers.
->'''[[WesternAnimation/AvatarTheLastAirbender Aang]]:''' I'm the Avatar, master [[BlowYouAway of]] [[MakingASplash all]] [[DishingOutDirt four]] [[PlayingWithFire elements]]!
->'''Dmitri Mendeleev:''' Really? I'm [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmitri_Mendeleev Mendeleev,]] master of all 118+. ''*swoosh*'' That was polonium-bending. You probably didn't feel anything, but the symptoms of radiation poisoning will set in shortly.
-->--''Webcomic/{{xkcd}}'' #965: [[http://xkcd.com/965/ Elements]][[note]][[AltText Of all the nations, the armies of the ununoctium-benders are probably the least intimidating. The xenon-benders come close, but their flickery signs are at least effective for propaganda.]][[/note]]

And another one for this entry on the FanFic page of WarpThatAesop:
--> Pattycakes: ''Cult leaders who take days to brainwash people are pussies; if you're serious about it, you can do it in an afternoon.''
----
@/{{LongLiveHumour}}: Perhaps the most accurate description of IdiotPlot is on ''ComicBook/CivilWar'''s YMMV page:
--> A lot of the plot makes more sense if you assume the brains of everyone in the Marvel Universe have been replaced with fish.
----
1810072342: On the Sliding Scale wiki (another Just For Fun area), there is a sliding scale of SlidingScale/BiggerIsBetter. For the smallest one, there was something about the way that "-2: OMIGOD THAT IS A BIG QUARK" was written that makes me laugh every time I see it. Maybe it's the caps, maybe it's the DissonantSerenity. I don't know. But it's win.
----
redgyarados: This is from a while ago, but the page quote for ''[[Recap/DoctorWhoS31E2TheBeastBelow The Beast Below]]'' is genius, particularly the "record" part.
----
@/{{SpiriTsunami}}: Another one that sadly has been lost to the sands of time, for reading like a LongList of NoodleImplements if taken out of context:
-->...amnesia, being under the influence of magical trees/candy, ambiguous use/interpretation of the word "partner", sexual assault by clones, time travel, magically aged bishonen, misplaced parental affection, mind reading, a cursed vampire loli, self-depreciating lesbian half-demons, and a robot.
Naturally, this comes from the LoveDodecahedron page and is a list of all the things that make the one in ''MahouSenseiNegima'' so goddamned complicated.
----
@/{{SAMAS}}: To @/{{Willbyr}} for the caption for HospitalHottie's picture:
-> [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar A very popular choice for women seeking classical hysteria treatments.]][[note]]If you don't get it, the classical treatment was an ''orgasm''.[[/note]]
----
@/{{Seanette}}: In the Real Life section of AlternativeCalendar, whoever came up with the phrase "one-time administrative assistant to the Mayor of Cloudcuckooland", referring to Saparmurat Niyazov of Turkmenistan.
----
@/{{SpiriTsunami}}: Every contributor to the "RealLife" section of LevelUpAtIntimacy5. Describing marriage in game mechanics...so incredible.
----
@/{{Medinoc}}: One point to whoever potholed ''VideoGame/AssassinsCreedII'' in the classic definition of a {{Munchkin}} (edit history has been lost, sadly).
----
Tropers/{{Dante668}}: On the BrainFood page, under Video Games, the example of the Combine Advisors which defines the actual eating of brains to gain memories and knowledge as NOMNOMNOMKNOWLEDGE (sic).
----
Tropers/{{Kuropuppy}}: One to Tropers/{{MikeRosoft}} for this gem on TheCrocIsTicking: "Since the invention of cell phones, there have been instances of ringing dogs. If a dog is big enough to swallow a phone whole, the phone can still ring, letting people know they need to go to the vet and the phone store, ''definitely'' in that order."
----
Tropers/MHMhasf1998: On the SugarWiki/MostTriumphantExample section, for the {{Most Wonderful Sound}} trope, there is the example of the VWORP VWORP VWORP from {{Doctor Who}}. The example is seconded by {{Tropers/Amelia Pond}}.
----
Tropers/{{Earnest}}: One to Tropers/{{gibberingtroper}} and Tropers/BlackestOfMages for this exchange in ExpositionBeam:

* [MartianManhunter] once shoved Martian piloting skills into Batman's brain so he could handle a Martian ship. One may be surprised to find out Batman hadn't [[CrazyPrepared already learned how to pilot one just in case]].
** He had, he was just being nice to J'onn and letting him show off his powers.
----
Tropers/ChrisX: One for [=GethN7=], admin of the Trope Mirror Wikia, who solely made up an account to post in the AskTheTropers just to clear up on how he's still cool with TVTropes and will have none of those anti-TVTropes trolling bullshits as of late. That post better be immortalized.
----
Tropers/{{Earnest}}: A MOW to Tropers/{{Jeez}}, Tropers/{{qx100}} and Tropers/{{Tuckerscreator}} for the... [=*ehem*=]... "ending(s)" in EndingFatigue.

----
Tropers/{{Ingonyama}}: One to whoever made the hottip on the CommonMarySueTraits page, where it had been noted that for some reason a lot of Sues [[{{Omniglot}} speak Lakota]]: "A Mary Sioux?"
----
Tropers/SeaMaid96: One to [=AngryBob=] with this beautiful gory little quote from the YMMV/BattleForWesnoth page:
->"Fighting [saurians, a lizard-like race] (...) can be compared to juggling fetuses: slippery, unpleasant, and more likely to get blood everywhere than accomplish anything worthwhile."
----
[=MrUnderhill=]: One for whoever indexed the FinalDeath page under [[ThatOneBoss/FireEmblem Fire Emblem's "That One Boss" page]]. When the toughest boss in the series is a ''game mechanic'', you know you're in trouble.

@/{{SonicLover}}: Hate to burst your bubble, but I think it was accidental.
----
@/SgtFrog1: One to Cuddleskunk for the hilarious first line of Playing With: PlayingWith/TwentyBearAsses. I haven't laughed this hard since someone made "Playing With: Yourself" a redirect to ADateWithRosiePalms!
-->''This might be the dirtiest sounding title of any trope page or subtrope page...''
----
@/{{Zadia}}: Whoever wrote JohnRomero's page is absolutely brilliant and gets a hug.
----
@/{{Chabal2}}: Whoever made the caption for DisneyVillainDeath's image deserves a medal.

@/{{Telcontar}}: @/GGCrono appears to have come up with the original idea, and @/{{Digivam143}} wrote its current form. Good work, guys!
----
@/GGCrono: One from me to @/ChaoticBrain, for his hilarious in-character rewrite of the VideoGame/YouDontKnowJack page. Well done!
----
@/RobinZimm: One for @/LucaEarlgrey, for creating Laconic.SuperHexagon with the following [[NintendoHard highly appropriate]] stinger:
-->[-''Begin!'' Visit unabridged version [[VideoGame/SuperHexagon HE]]--*zap* ''[[GameOver GAME. OVER.]]''-]
----
@/{{Wheezy}}: From InvulnerableHorses: "After all, real bullets don't have anyone's name on them, they're addressed "to whom it may concern...'"
----
@/{{Koveras}}: A MOW to whomever created the Laconic.NoobBridge entry--specifically, the small-font section below. It's just a ''perfect'' illustration of the concept.
----
@/RobinZimm: Belatedly: the following InsultToRocks-ish line, added by @/{{IntotheSky}} to the description of ''Literature/{{Worm}}'' on 25 September 2012:
->Bullying has also been featured as a major element in the plot and character development of the main character. Recently though, story arcs have drifted almost entirely away from the hellish landscape that is contemporary high school, towards the more uplifting setting of a bombed out city at the mercy of a roving band of psychopaths.
----
{{Kuropuppy}}: Basically the entire Rule34 Headscratchers page, but especially:
(context: people have been discussing a Victorian-houses fetish)
* If Pro-Mole had a fetish on people who try to take jokes way too seriously, Pro-Mole'd be excited right now.
* If I have a fetish for people referring to themselves in third person, I would ask what Pro-Mole is wearing and if Pro-Mole knows where to find an abandoned Victorian house.
* If I had a fetish for hypothetical situations, I would hypothetically be in said troper's bunk.
----
@/{{Koveras}}: One to @/RandomSurfer for his comment on [[http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/discussion.php?id=smarilkv155i74vxw16jfniu this YKTTW]] about the existence of a Stealth Index on this wiki:
-->''"There probably is [one], it's just too sneaky to be found."''
----
{{Kiapet}}: One to MrDeath for removing my blatant entry pimping in FantasyGunControl. I was young and foolish, and it was a source of shame I never got around to removing.
----
@/{{Zadia}}: One bright, shiny MOW to whoever posted this in the Film/CabinFever page. It made me laugh.

ThePlague: It is hinted that the disease will reach pandemic levels, insofar as the hint practically parades in front of the audience in stiletto heels and fishnet stockings singing "Sweet Transvestite" and twirling flaming batons.

@/{{Dante668}}: That would be me. The mental picture was too funny to pass up.
----
Cb14: One MOW to @/{{Ckuckoo}} for the "([[ImStandingRightHere thanks a lot, mate]])" quip in the ShinyNewAustralia article.
----
@/{{Robinton}}: +1 MOW to whoever added this to FanFic/ShinjiAndWarhammer40k. It actually expresses how awesome the story and characters are!

->[Shinji] somehow [[TookALevelInBadass becomes 20 times more badass than his canon counterpart]] as a result, becoming an [[BadassBookworm efficiently intellectual]] [[MagnificentBastard power-player]], who knows no fear, charges headlong into combat without hesitation, exhibits nearly prescient planning abilities and earns the reverence and adoration of his people for his heroism.

->[[OnTheNext In the second chapter]], he actually arrives in Tokyo-3 and meets his Evangelion.
----
hydrix: I give a +1 to Tropers/TheGreenHerring for his excellent work re-edit on the Doom mods of the ''Horrible/VideoGamesOther'' page (which can be found under the Game Mods archive). In the whole time that I have been watching the SoBadItsHorrible page for fun I have never seen such a well-written essay on horrible things in my life. The given examples just seemed to be so fair, so detailed and [[RuleOfThree so]] well-thought out that seeing the examples would make you wish to yourself that you could write examples as good as him.
