I may be wrong on that point, but if TVTropes called it "Good Is Dumb" and not " Because Good Is Dumb" then that's the final nail in the coffin of the argument that the title in question is a reference to anything other than Spaceballs.
A wizard did it may be a reference to the trope. The most disturbing thing about it: If it is a reference to TVTropes, it's a trope-pun. Of course the strip in question is about so much more than just that. Last edited by Zea mays; at AM. All numbers are grammatically correct. Originally Posted by Geomancer.

I'm still leaning towards "he must have visited TvTropes at least once or twice", but I claim no knowledge. I don't normally like to read or respond to threads, but this one is something that I can definitively answer in one post, so why not?
Yes, I am aware TV Tropes exists as a website. No, I do not read it regularly. No, I have never decided to do something in the comic because it was listed on TV Tropes. I don't use it as a checklist for ideas, as has been claimed, and I have never intentionally referenced it in any way.
As far as some of the specific points being argued in this thread: 1. I've taken film and literature classes; I knew what a trope was before I acknowledge that the word has become much more commonplace since then, possibly as a result of the site, and that I may have felt more comfortable having Elan use the word in relation to story structure as a result of seeing it bandied about the internet.
The term "Cerebrus Syndrome" was coined by Eric Burns of Websnark, who has published several reviews of OOTS strips over the years and of whose blog I was an avid reader in the days before it dried up and blew away. You will note that I contributed art to the man's wedding proposal several years ago. If TV Tropes is using that phrase, it's because Eric invented it.
I could have had the hobgoblin lean in with a telephone and say that Fred was on the line, which was my first instinct, but if I had, I don't think anyone would have understood it. At any rate, I'm pretty sure I heard the term elsewhere, but I can acknowledge that I may have read it in the work of someone who was, themselves, referencing TV Tropes such as another webcomic artist.
So I can give you that this one may be indirectly caused by the site. Character Submissions Topics, Posts. A Ticklish Ralt 45 min ago. Oh, sorry. But just make sure you also enjoy yourself too!
