*** Referring the [[spoiler:[[BigGood Flamethrower]][[BaitAndSwitchBoss Guy]]]] as Ethan.

* LaserGuidedKarma: In [[https://youtu.be/M6e3FAe1aIw?t=407 this]] ''GTA'' race, Simon's decision to [[DickDastardlyStopsToCheat turn around in first place to screw with the others]] ended up costing him first place.

Simon has known the group's most famous member, WebVideo/KSIOlajidebt, well before the formation of the Sidemen. However, he started his main channel in February 2008, two months before KSI made his first channel, so Simon actually has the longest [=YouTube=] career out of the Sidemen, even though it took him about six years to attain one million subscribers. Today, Simon is now the third-most subscribed member of the group, behind KSI and WebVideo/{{wroetoshaw}}.

* RedheadsAreUncool: Due to losing a ''FIFA'' game to [[WebVideo/KSIOlajidebt JJ]],[[note]]he was actually winning 4-0, [[EpicFail but decided to score three own goals to level it out, allowing JJ to score the equalizer and subsequently win in penalties]][[/note]] Simon had to dye his hair red. From thence he became the "red-haired lesbian", as the Sidemen called him.

* CompetitionFreak: Seeing as he's the most competitive Sideman.

'''Simon Minter''' (born 7 September 1992) is an English Website/YouTube [[LetsPlay gamer]] who is known as '''[[https://www.youtube.com/user/miniminter miniminter]]'''. Also known by his second channel and [=PlayStation=] Network name, [[https://www.youtube.com/user/MM7Games MM7Games]], or by his Xbox Live Gamertag, Real Nimrod, he is known for his ''VideoGame/{{FIFA|Soccer}}'' videos and for being TheAnnouncer of ''[[VideoGame/GrandTheftAutoV Grand Theft Auto Online]]'' events when he plays the game with his gaming group, the Creator/UltimateSidemen. He is arguably the group's [[CompetitionFreak most competitive member]], screaming something (usually [[BigYes "Yes!"]] or [[BigNo "No!"]]) when something does or does not go his way.

* AnimatedAdaptation: Some of his videos, such as "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOdJVmbwJdw THE SIDEMEN HELIUM CHALLENGE"]] and "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7MT6iTSEnQ HOW TO MAKE A HORROR FILM]]", courtesy of the Sidemen's go-to animator Adsapaps.

* ShaggyDogStory: In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cwnpImb-IDg WEIRDEST WAGER EVER]]", Simon plays against Domino's Pizza in a game of ''FIFA 16'', with the promise of free pizza if he wins. He wins 3-1 [[spoiler: but his reward turns out to be a 50% off a pizza voucher instead]].

* {{Mondegreen}}: A RunningGag for him is to mispronounce the names of ''GTA'' events, playing off the cursive script font used for titles. For example, "ride" becomes "nide". He has kind of stopped doing so after the other Sidemen said it had stopped being funny.

* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Simon isn't exactly scared of tuna ''per se'', but has an extreme dislike for it. So naturally, the rest of the Sidemen used this to their advantage and took the time to shove a can of the stuff under his nose during his patience test. He almost ''cried''.

* {{Adorkable}}: You have to admit that [[http://scontent-a.cdninstagram.com/hphotos-xfa1/t51.2885-15/s306x306/e15/10838783_600748066721241_1832726330_n.jpg the man's pretty adorable]].

** Another BigNo ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hYKq8xZrv5I Soccer Physics]]'' after he performs a header that sends the ball offscreen... only for it to come back down, rebound off the crossbar, and roll into his goal. Later occurs when [[spoiler:Josh scores the game-winning goal]].

!!Tropes relating to this video game commentator include:

* SigningOffCatchphrase: "Thank you guys for watching and... See ya!" He says this in videos that involve a facecam with a flick of his hand doing a V sign from forehead to camera, at which point the camera cuts off.

* BigNo: As explained on the Sidemen's main page, Simon does this trope frequently, and is probably only outdone by [[WebVideo/{{wroetoshaw}} Harry Lewis]].
