create implication pat_fusty (9) -> bloons_tower_defense (984)
create implication etienne (1) -> bloons_tower_defense (984)

Reason: These are all characters/towers in the bloons tower defense games. For some reason, none of their character tags implicate bloons_tower_defense so it's a bit annoying to tag any of them. There are also so many tags that I hit the limit so I need to add another BUR to this thread. It really is that big.

create implication dark_dirigible_titan (11) -> bloons_tower_defense (984)
create implication cave_monkey_(btd_6) (0) -> bloons_tower_defense (984)

Reason: Ok I think this is it but i'll double check later. I also suggested some aliases since they're just duplicate tags. Hopefully I won't need to make another BUR.

Reason:

old stuff, ignore

Just one missed one

Also the suffixes should be standardized. I vote for BTD as the suffix since it's short and recognizable (imo). Bloons could also be a good suffix.
Here's the ones that need to be edited if we go with BTD:
alias ice_monkey_(bloons_td_6) -> ice_monkey_(btd)
alias druid_monkey_(bloons) -> druid_monkey_(btd)
alias patch_(bloons) -> patch_(btd)
alias quincy_(bloons) -> quincy_(btd)
alias benjamin_(bloons) -> benjamin_(btd)
alias adora_(bloons) -> adora_(btd)
alias psi_(bloons) -> psi_(btd)
alias monkey_sub_(bloons_td_6) -> monkey_sub_(btd)
alias glue_rat_(bloons_tower_defense) -> glue_rat_(btd)
alias glue_gunner_rat -> glue_rat_(btd)
alias cave_monkey_(btd_6) -> cave_monkey_(btd)

These ones are human first names that could potentially have conflict in the future:
update gwendolin -> gwendolin_(btd)
imply gwendolin_(btd) -> bloons_tower_defense
update etienne -> etienne_(btd)
imply etienne_(btd) -> bloons_tower_defense
update sauda -> sauda_(btd)
imply sauda_(btd) -> bloons_tower_defense

I'm not positive if some of these need suffixes though, like ice monkey and druid monkey. Or if they do need them, then others like sniper monkey, boomerang monkey, etc. might also need suffixes...
I'm at least pretty sure gravelord lych doesn't need one:
alias gravelord_lych_(bloons_td_6) -> gravelord_lych
imply gravelord_lych -> bloons_tower_defense

part 1 of fixed BUR to standardize the suffixes. I gave the *_monkeys suffixes just in case.
The druid and alchemist characters in the game actually don't have "monkey" in their names

So apparently there's a wider Bloons franchise and the Bloons Tower Defense series is only a part of that. Should bloons_tower_defense imply bloons? alias to it?

implcation would maybe be correct, but I feel like that'd kinda like be implying puyo_puyo to madou_monogatari.

Bloons TD, despite being the spinoff series, is pretty much the only thing that matters at this point, is the only part of the franchise with anything approaching unique character designs, and probably is the more recognizable brand name, implying would essentially be creating a dead tag, and I'm not sure if aliasing would be necessary either.

Very true. Do you think the character suffix should be _(btd) or _(bloons)?

Edit: Also there's currently a bloons tag on a few btd posts, should that be aliased to bloons_tower_defense?

personally I'd lean towards truncating the series name into a few (or one) recognizable words rather than intialisms when possible (*_(zelda) > *_(loz), *_(sonic) > *_(sth)). so, *_(bloons) would be my pick.

yes? I mean, if we ever come up with a reason to have two separate tags we could probably deal with it later, but for now I don't really see that happening.
