The classic troll head. It's classic, you bastards. And classy, too. A bit childish, but so is the Codex. The monocled troll, on the other hand, isn't even childish, it's just plain retarded.

...but so is the Codex?

Exactly. Keep the classic head - it's classic for a reason. And its facial expression is already spot on.
Codex is not as monocled as a lot of people here like to think, you self-important pompous asses, even in a post-ironic self-mocking kind of way. Monocles and smug-smileys are fucking retarded. Keep it simple.

While monocled troll is pretty cool, its too hard to make out what is it. Someone who doesnt know beforehand what is it, will never guess. Bring the classic troll back.

Doesn't scale to your level.

I like the monocled troll. Makes it easier to tell apart tabs. A splendid job, really.

I didn't like Racofer's shit at all. It was just... shit. And what was wrong with the blue play button from before?

What exactly monocled troll represent?

Thetypical codexer's intense desire to be an elite RPG fan leads him to believe he can become one simply by donning a monocle, but those around him just see a troll using fancy words to argue about videogames.

In other words, it's perfect for the Codex :thumbsup:

The fact it wasn't actually a blue play button, I imagine

how do I adblock a favicon
If you're a prestigious Firefox user:
1) about:config -> browser.chrome.favicons -> false
2) Adblock Plus -> ||rpgcodex.net/favicon.* and ||rpgcodex.net/prestigious_troll.png|

I know everyone's been ripping chrome off hard, but can't they at least name their own variables?

Also: decent icon. Easier to tell what it is than that broken-word and red rectangle monstrosity, sharper than any automatic down-scaling will provide, and, above all, it has a distinct combination of shape and color, so as to actually serve the functional purpose of an icon. Which is not to be pretty and make you feel cool. Don't listen to the haters; it's gotten more affirmative votes after being implemented than most of the other icons have all-together.

Nah, didn't need to rig this one. And that's despite your best efforts voting parrot with all your alts.

Besides, there's a clear overwhelming 72% majority for Monocled Troll. 35% voted directly for it, 22% voted for Classic Troll - but they hadn't seen it implemented and when they did, would've realised it sucked and so defaulted to its Monocled Variant, while 15% agree with me about how awesome Racofer's was - people who are so in-tuned with my thoughts, they'd agree with anything I decided was the best to use. :smug:

Now that zeitgeist posted this, a different troll head dependong on which forum group (RPG, Gaming, Playground, etc) would be pretty cool.
