So where do we put Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands on the timeline?

So what do we do with the examples listed under "General tropes in the franchise"? If that would mean listing the series-wide tropes, then it would mean having to delete the common tropes across all games from their individual pages, right? Because I'm sure there will be a lot of tropes that need to be moved here if that's the case (For example, just look at how the Crapsack World page says "Borderlands series"). Consequently, the trope pages of the games would be trimmed down if their common tropes are in here.

It can be done, but what I'm saying is, it requires a lot of time and work checking all of the Borderlands trope pages.

Shouldn't we add a Character sheet or something to this page? I mean, the four mains are pretty reminiscent of other character tropes, and the npc characters make up for the rest of them. -Nod nod-

Well, the character-specific tropes aren't really cluttering up the main page, since there aren't that many of them, but if you want to start one I guess it couldn't hurt.

Character sheets are more for organization than anything, so nobody really stops you from making one, but at the same time they're kind of annoying to construct.

I have an issue with the links in the intro about the 4 charecters.

Lilith links to the smurffete princable, mordicai to friendly sniper.

Lilith, firsty, is widely considreded to be the most powerful charecter in the game, and based on her comments and backstory (the game actually has a lot of pre-release story elements) ((Black Magician Girl)) mixed with ((Girls with Guns))

Mordecai, is most certainly not a Freindly sniper. Based on the above mentioned pre release info, mordcai is out on Pandora looking for the vault because he feels that he was cheated out of money and fame. He also seems to be somewhat psychotic based on his in game evil laughs and comments.

Am I the only one who noticed that Jaynis Kobb is likely a homage to Jayne Cobb from Firefly? I thought there would be an entry for it, but there isn't.

It's in the massive Border Lands Shout-Out entry, which got moved to its own page thanks to size.

For some reason, the Roguelike indexer is showing up at the bottom of the page, but it's not listed in the Roguelike index, and not showing in the page source. Any ideas why it's doing that? Nevermind.

Er, is it just me, or has there been a sudden wave of negativity lately?

Shamelessly plugging my comics, Oh yes.

The stats at the top of the page have changed — should we change them or leave them for dramatic effect?
