They say "don't feed the trolls", but Nervous Nick breaks the rule by paying tribute to five gaming trolls: #5: Toad, for telling Mario his princess is in another castle; #4: Gabe Newell, for stringing gamers along by not releasing "Half-Life 3"; #3: Shao Kahn, for taunting you throughout the match; #2: The "Duck Hunt" dog, for laughing whenever you miss the ducks; and #1: The "McDonald's Treasure Land Adventure" map maker, for making a convoluted route to a treasure chest that had nothing in it but a rainbow that sent Ronald McDonald back to where he started.
