Aaaaaaaaaand another page ruined. :-(
It's like reading a history book on war, with the bottom half of each page torn off.
"And as long as a sack of shit is not a good thing to be, chivalry will never die."
How's this page ruined by TRS?
The editor who primarily focus on video game tropes

Is there any reason why we are removing the “winner?” part? I thought it was really good and it showed which work ended up being more successful in the end. Without it, the trope and its pages feel kind of empty and it loses a lot of meaning. I kind of miss it :(

I agree with you Marcy Marth, but I'm guessing it was generating too much disagreement in some cases. Thus I can understand why the TRS for this article may have decided for that, but I'd wish for it to be back, but with a requirement to cite and include sources similar to how Unfortunate Implication entries are required to have that.
This isn't a trope I particularly care for but according the latest TRS thread the winner part was removed because it encouraged subjectivity and complaining.
Macron's notes
So I was not hallucinating, this used to say who won!
And I fully agree with Marcy Marth, I want to know who won. Couldn't you simply add a rule that it had to come with hard data, like box-office numbers?
I swear, right now the page feels like half of it is missing, it's a buildup with no payoff, like a joke with no punchline. Just try reading it, you'll see!

Thar be flabbergasting!
Why was the Pinball section moved to Video Games? None of the examples in that list are video games, strictly speaking; they're all physical tables you'd find at arcades, bars, bowling alleys, pizza joints, and such. It would make more sense as its own category rather than a subcategory.

Per TRS
, some new restrictions were added, and the table format was replaced with bulleted lists.
