History YMMV / PartyCrashers

* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: The Piplup plushie Sophist gifted Brent was something Nick expressed his intention to constantly use in his videos, however no new reaction images were made using the plushie and it would only make two further appearances as "Piplup Intermissions" before Brent decided to retire the Penguin gag for good.

* SpiritualSuccessor: The Party Crashers could very well be this for LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys, as they are also a group consisting of NoIndoorVoice VitriolicBestBuds playing friendship-stressing video games (mainly ''VideoGame/MarioParty''). Some fans hoped for a {{Crossover}} between the two groups before the latter's indefinite hiatus.

* NeverLiveItDown: There are a number of fans that ''still'' haven't forgiven Sophist for being [[TheMillstone the main cause]] of [[ButtMonkey Vernias' constant torment]] in their earlier ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' sessions, therefore not feeling any sympathy for his misfortune ''surpassing'' Vernias nowadays.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Artwork of Sophist [[ExcrementStatement peeing on Vernias]]? Rather gross. Said art being caused by Vernias misinterpreting a drawing of Sophist attacking him with magic in their first ''Gartic Phone'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOfPfz30VzY video]]? Pretty humorous. Nick, Brent, and Sophist making even worse and more direct variants with all three of them shocked as they are disgusted while Vernias is sincerely unaware of the chaos he caused, all culminating in [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sophist_pees_on_vernias.png Sophist's drawing]] depicting him [[OffWithHisHead decapitating Vernias]] with an excessive stream of urine? Absolutely hilarious!

** To the surprise of absolutely nobody, this is a meme. *[[Recap/SpongeBobSquarePantsS2E1YourShoesUntiedSquidsDayOff Insert Mr. Krabs face]]*

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Artwork of Sophist [[ExcrementStatement peeing on Vernias]]? Rather gross. Said art being caused by Vernias misinterpreting a drawing of Sophist attacking him with magic in their first ''Gartic Phone'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rOfPfz30VzY video]]? Pretty humorous. Nick, Brent, and Sophist making even worse and more direct variants, with [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/sophist_pees_on_vernias.png Sophist's drawing]] depicting him [[OffWithHisHead decapitating Vernias]] with an excessive stream of urine? Absolutely hilarious!

** When Vernias finds a Hidden Block in Brent's ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PGvWRzpldPM&t=205s Raid Boss session]], he clarifies to Nick that he can't get a Star from it because Bonus Stars are off. Cut to "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuXVM_b3QAk&t=1940s Mario Party but we need to TIE]]", [[spoiler:where Nick receives a Star from a Hidden Block on the final turn, despite the fact that Bonus Stars were off.]]

** While playing the minigame Toad's Bandstand in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMtr21KBApw&t=1021s We played EVERY minigame in Mario Party 2]]", Brent requests the editor to put [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/vernias_face.png Vernias' face]] on the flowers in the background, to which the editor declines. Brent would then make this edit himself while playing the same minigame in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2scHcy4tX4&t=1207s Mario Party 2 Bowser Land is WAY too toxic...]]" three days later.

* HarsherInHindsight: The many jokes the group made about the "Vern Virus" became this to an extent when after the group played together at the ''WebVideo/{{Sidequest|Party}}'' house, all of them except Sophist ended up getting COVID-19, as noted in their "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mKUFvcAuOE&t=216s How to Cheat in Mario Party]]". Thankfully, it wasn't too serious for any of them, with the editor even attempting make a bit of humor from it:
-->'''Brent:''' ''(after Vernias rolls a 1)'' The Vern Virus is real.\\
'''Editor:''' Everyone but Eevee proceeded to get sick via the Rona. [[CrossesTheLineTwice Vern Virus is canon.]]

** In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J1usjQ_s2vw&t=191s Mario Party but it's Simon Says 2]]", GuestStarPartyMember [[https://www.youtube.com/@Peanut_SSBU Peanut]] ponders out loud if Birdo has teeth, [[NoJustNoReaction much to Vernias' disgust]]. Later in 2024, the ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' {{Author Avatar}}s on Nick's channel would be replaced by animations of the group's ''VideoGame/MarioPartySuperstars'' mains imitating the original characters' sprite animations, with Birdo's angry sprite giving her the sharp teeth of Larry Butz.

* UnintentionalUncannyValley: In 2024, the ''Franchise/AceAttorney'' {{Author Avatar}}s on Nick's channel were replaced by animations of the group's ''VideoGame/MarioPartySuperstars'' mains imitating the original sprites. This includes Birdo being used in place of Larry Butz for Vernias, but her mouth is drawn to resemble actual mouth movements, which looks incredibly out-of-place on Birdo, especially with her angry sprite giving her [[ToothyBird spiked teeth]].

* BrokenBase: Whether Nick or Brent is the luckiest member of the group is an argument for the ages, something Brent even {{lampshades}} in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mKUFvcAuOE&t=750s How to Cheat in Mario Party]]":

* FriendlyFandoms: It's not uncommon for fans of the Party Crashers to also be fans of other collaborative LetsPlay group channels consisting of VitriolicBestBuds playing friendship-stressing video games (mainly ones created by Creator/{{Nintendo}}). This is especially true with WebVideo/SidequestParty and the WebVideo/{{Underdogs}}, as Vernias is also a member of the former, while Nick has collaborated with [[https://www.youtube.com/@Poppt1 Poppt1]] of the latter on multiple occasions.

* CrossesTheLineTwice: Artwork of Sophist [[ExcrementStatement peeing on Vernias]]? Rather gross.

** Vernias' [[CurbStompBattle dominating performance]] on Paddle Battle while [[MadnessMantra repeatedly shouting "Perfect Rotation"]] in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zA5bs6NHQHM&t=1372s The WORST Board in Mario Party 1...]]" has gone down as one of the most iconic moments in any of their ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' videos, to the point where a fan made a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tt_0Uqu4Leg trap song remix of the moment]]. This remix has since become an AscendedMeme, being used by the Party Crashers themselves in subsequent videos with the original creator's permission.

** Sophist of all people winning and tying with [[TheAce Brent]] on the minigame [[ButtonMashing Mecha Marathon]] in Nick's ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnAFVre_JxA&t=698s Raid Boss session]], much to the surprise of everybody, including Sophist himself.

* SpoiledByTheFormat: The [[https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/impossible_mario_party_nuzlocke.png thumbnail]] for "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=POEtd94CHB0 The Impossible Mario Party Nuzlocke]]" saying 74/100 is meant to be a SchrodingersGun, but the video's runtime being shorter than average ultimately ends up clueing-in that Vernias [[ForegoneConclusion isn't going to win]], ensuring that the 74/100 estimate is NotHyperbole.

* RootingForTheEmpire: If any viewers are watching a ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' session uploaded by their least favorite member of the group, either because they're the only one to upload the video or they simply want to check out their edit of the game, expect them to not be rooting for the original uploader.

** Sophist's Star steal on the final turn in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zGpc0Y2ZY9A&t=1768s Sometimes Mario Party wants you to win... or lose...]]", [[spoiler:where he selects the Random option when visiting the Boo and ends up [[KickTheDog stealing a Star from Vernias while he was already in dead last]], leading to #[=JusticeForVernias=] trending on Twitch and solidifying Vernias as the group's ButtMonkey.]]

** Sophist casting Thunder Spell on an [[WouldHurtAChild innocent child]] in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7VMniPDc8qg&t=369s I Made A Game Designed To Be Bad]]" has become the most iconic moment from any of the group's collabs with [[https://www.youtube.com/@MagicTheNoah Magic the Noah]]. Sophist's subsequent defense of it being an [[InsaneTrollLogic "optimal play"]] would cement his status as the TokenEvilTeammate of the group.

* FriendlyFandoms: It's not uncommon for fans of the Party Crashers to also be fans of the WebVideo/{{Underdogs}}, WebVideo/SidequestParty, and LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys, as all four channels consist of VitriolicBestBuds playing friendship-stressing video games, mainly ones created by Creator/{{Nintendo}}. The fact that Vernias is a member of both ''Party Crashers'' and ''Sidequest Party'', as well as how Nick and Brent have collaborated with certain members of the Underdogs on multiple occasions, definitely doesn't hurt.[[note]] Notably, "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkJEzn8q6CY Smash but everyone is their canon size...]]", the most viewed video uploaded by any of the ''Party Crashers'' members, has Nick playing with [=Poppt1=].[[/note]]

Some fans hoped for a {{Crossover}} between the two channels before the latter's indefinite hiatus.

** With Nick easily being the most toxic out of the four, it's very easy for viewers to find him rather annoying and unlikeable. [[spoiler:Thus it is ''incredibly satisfying'' seeing him get ''[[CurbStompBattle absolutely bodied]]'' in his ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqUl5TelMew Raid Boss session]], getting ''crushed'' in nearly ''every single'' minigame. The fact that he starts from being incredibly confident that he's gonna win the whole thing to losing almost all hope nearly half-way through the game makes it all the better.]]

* BrokenBase:
** Whether Nick or Brent is the luckiest member of the group is an argument for the ages, something Brent even {{lampshades}} in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6mKUFvcAuOE&t=750s How to Cheat in Mario Party]]":
--->'''Brent:''' You know what's funny whenever we go live? Every time something good happens to you, my chat goes: "Brent's the lucky one, by the way." But then when something good happens to me, I go into your chat they go: "Nick's the lucky one, by the way."
** ''VideoGame/MarioParty3''[='=]s Spiny Desert is easily the group's most divisive ''VideoGame/MarioParty'' game to date, where Nick convinces Vernias into using his Warp Block to swap with Brent in order to prevent him from stealing both of Nick's Stars by using his Reverse Mushroom to visit the Boo twice. One half of the fanbase took this as Nick being the ManipulativeBastard he is and was simply gaslighting Vernias into doing his bidding, while the other half believe that this was the optimal play because had Brent stolen just one of Nick's Stars, he would already be in 1st place by large margin, as he also had the Coin and Minigame Bonus Stars.

** Nick's Chance Time in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqUl5TelMew&t=773s Mario Party but it's 1 vs 3...]]", where he tries aiming for himself in stealing a Star. He's initially excited when he manages to get himself on the roulette... [[spoiler:[[FailedASpotCheck only to realize immediately afterward that the arrow was pointing away from him]], [[EpicFail resulting in him losing a Star rather than gaining one]], causing him to scream in despair over his mistake.]]
