History WebVideo / QSMP

** In both the teaser and the series itself, El Pato's announcements of the rules are made with the sound effects of ''VideoGame/{{Toontown|Online}}'' duck Toons, the game where Quackity's screen-name originated from.

* SinkOrSwimFatherhood: Or, well, parenthood in general. After the Dragon was awakened and disappeared, the Duckling announces that the server-members must pair up (by random assignment, though there are changes later) to adopt one of its egg children and keep them alive until the Dragon returns, forcing ''everyone'' into parenthood with no prior notice. Some of them take to parenthood quite well (considering the circumstances), and others… not so much.

* AngelUnaware: A vaping, smoking weird man with magical abilities wanted to test the humility of the Quackities' mother, and asked for shelter in her home during a bad storm. The mother refused to let him in because she believed SmokingIsNotCool, so he punished the woman by [[LightningCanDoAnything having a lightning strike]] split the house and her son into two. Quackity the content creator believes this to be DisproportionateRetribution and the test to be pointless, since she lived in a crappy dirt house in the middle of nowhere anyway.

* PaintingTheMedium: Quackity the content creator livestreams and posts his two characters' perspectives of events on different Twitch and [=YouTube=] channels. He also plays with the game settings on English ''and'' Spanish, depending on the perspective character.

The QSMP is a private, modded ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' survival multiplayer run by Quackity. It is "the world's first ever multilingual Minecraft SMP server", and while it started with just English- and Spanish-speaking content creators, the roster was later expanded to include Brazilian (Portuguese) and French-speaking content creators.

The series begins with a group of Spanish speakers and English speakers receiving train tickets to a land called 'Quesadilla Island' or 'Isla Quesadilla', a place advertised as a beautiful resort. However, once they all get there, it quickly becomes apparent this is not the paradise they were promised, and to makes matters worse, they are told they can never leave. Now the guests must learn to adjust to their new life, and work together to not only survive but to unravel the truth behind this strange world.

The QSMP was announced on March 10, 2023, and began on March 22 of the same year.

'''Note:''' Unless otherwise specified, all tropes pertain to the '''characters''', not the content creators that play them.

* IslandOfMystery: The server is set on the eponymous Quesadilla Island, a so-called resort run by a small yellow duck. The island is riddled with odd structures and strange beings.

* VulgarHumor: Most of the people on the server are not family-friendly, and once the Qlobal Translator is implemented, it doesn't take long for a group of creators to test out the mod by repeating "semen" on end.

** In the series proper, this trope applies at all times as it is a server with both English and Spanish streamers.

* VulgarHumor: Most of the people on the server are not family-friendly, and once the Qlobal Translator is implemented, it doesn't take long for a group of creators to test out the mod by repeating the word "semen" on end.

* WallsOfTyranny: At the start of the series, the guests are split into two groups and the Duckling orders that they are not allowed to cross the wall or press a BigRedButton on the wall. Since half of the server population at the time was Hispanic and many of the English-speakers are American, this immediately evokes jokes about UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump, and Vegetta immediately climbs up to press the button. This causes a large hole to be blown into a wall, setting the two groups into a trap, as The Duck announces that the guests are now permanently trapped on the island.

* ShoutOut: Like other ''Minecraft'' [=SMPs=], the skins used by some people on the server reference other media.
** Philza still uses a skin that resembles Kisuke Urahara from ''Manga/{{Bleach}}''.
** While Mariana doesn't exactly use a skin that resembles him, his primary skin depicts him in Saitama's attire from ''Webcomic/OnePunchMan''.
** Missa's skin is that of Skeletor from ''Franchise/MastersOfTheUniverse''.
** Vegetta's name and skin reference the [[Characters/DragonBallVegeta similarly named character]] from ''Anime/DragonBall''.
** Uniquely, Etoiles' skin resembles a French comic character from ''Le Concombre Masqué'', which was created by the late Nikita Mandryka. His skin also has a T-shirt that resembles Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment's mascot, ''VideoGame/PacMan'', which is a character Etoiles played the most in ''VideoGame/SuperSmashBrosUltimate''.
** Kameto's skin resembles [[Characters/NarutoSasukeUchiha Sasuke Uchiha]] from ''Franchise/{{Naruto}}'', the former of which is also his preferred name.

* AccentAdaptation: The Spanish subtitles in Quackity's [=YouTube=] episodes translate how he and Spreen refer to avocado toast differently, with Quackity calling it ''tostada de aguacate'' and Spreen calling it ''tostada de palta''. This is most likely a nod to their respective content creators speaking different dialects of Spanish in real life -- Mexican and Argentine Spanish, respectively.

* WallsOfTyranny: At the start of the series, the guests are split into two groups and The Duck orders that they are not allowed to cross the wall or press a BigRedButton on the wall. Since half of the server population at the time was Hispanic and many of the English-speakers are American, this immediately evokes jokes about UsefulNotes/DonaldTrump, and Vegetta immediately climbs up to press the button. This causes a large hole to be blown into a wall, setting the two groups into a trap, as The Duck announces that the guests are now permanently trapped on the island.

* AllJustADream: When several new hostile mob types were introduced to the server, they turned out to be ''way'' too powerful, resulting in Chayanne, Tallulah, Bobby, and Dapper losing lives. These events were [[{{RetCon}} retconned]] as just being a giant, collective nightmare as the new hostiles were nerfed or removed.

* LanguageBarrier: A big part of the server's premise is the Spanish- and English-speaking members working together in spite of their language barrier. Subverted in that most of the Spanish-speaking members are fluent in English, and many of the English-speaking members know at least a little Spanish.
