Also, to be blunt, while finding out the weirdest inbound link of the day can be amusing, I was never happy with TV Tropes's obsession with that. True, I like the idea of high quality SEO myself, but it's gotten to the point where a large part of whether pages are allowed to live or die (if they pass the content censorship hurdle) is whether they have enough inbound links, and personally, I feel that is a shitty way to judge content because I always felt the yardstick fo page quality is whether it's well written and entertaining, not how many links it has to other sites.
Besides, here's the dark side of that inbound link count idea: what if the most highest rated pages are lolicon and panty shots and are extensively linked on forums for pedophiles? While our current pages have little to attract them (thankfully), I'd rather not have to marry the idea of pages being good to how many backlinks it has, especially if those backlinks are to communities you don't discuss in polite company.
