my grammar was really, really off the night i posted these. let's just say i was really tired.
first off, we should probably replace the original entries (the ones i wrote) with these replacement entries
Bottomless Magazines: The weapons Blockland comes stock with (and the vast majority of downloadable weapons) have no need to reload, and no ammo system. Certain mods get around this, like Rotondo's Zombie Mod.
Good Guns, Bad Guns: Tier+Tactical's Classic Assault Rifle and Classic Battle Rifle are, respectively, an M-16 and an AK-47. They were designed with this trope in mind.
Short Ranged Long Ranged Weapon: "Sniper Duels" generally consist of fights at point-blank with high powered rifles. Inversion: Many stereotypically shorter ranged weapons like pistols, shotguns and SMGs are usable at long ranges: in many cases they pick up where actual rifles leave off.
Handcannon: Every other weapon is wielded in one hand. Several are magnums that fire rounds larger then the players head.
Acceptable Breaks from Reality: Physics is treated more like a suggestion then a law. Bricks tend to only follow this suggestion when coerced with violence.
Standard FPS Guns: It's become a trend as of recently among modders. The basic game comes with a standard pistol, dual pistols and a rocket launcher.
Accidental Aiming Skills: Due to the 'traveling' nature of weaponry, many times a player won't so much shoot their target as their target walks into their bullet. What makes this different from outright 'leading' is many times the victim won't even be in their aggressor's line of sight in the first place, often walking out from behind walls or out of cover to be hit by a stray round.
aaaaand add these
Zombie Apocalypse: Zombie mods exist; if only the community would use them more often.
Sturgeon's Law: The better part of the server list is generally clogged up with 'knife DMs', 'army RPs' and generic knock-offs of the 10% of Blockland's servers that are good. The most direct example would be the amount of cityRPG servers that have popped up, since the source was leaked.
Follow the Leader: Most servers nowadays are based off of older servers that have shut down or otherwise closed their doors.
Never bring a gun to a swordfight: Averted, except in the case of the Combat Knife- an instant kill to anyone within arm's length, and quite easy to get into people who aren't paying attention.
