In case you missed this @hobbersI've tallied everything up. Do you remember what your list was before changing it?
Don't tell me you've tallied it all up and are doing some tactical votingOld list was
South park
Dark
The Americans
The shield
Star trek
Chernobyl
Better call Saul
Parks
The wire
Xfiles
You have successfully fecked over Chernobyl. My favourite show in group 2I just did a bit of soul searching and realised that Parks and Rec and The Americans are both genre defining masterpieces.
Also I am completely unaware about the current bottom 2 in each group.
Chernobyl will be fine whether it finishes 2nd or 3rd. No danger it wont be in the final.You have successfully fecked over Chernobyl. My favourite show in group 2
I'm gonna hold you to that.Chernobyl will be fine whether it finishes 2nd or 3rd. No danger it wont be in the final.
I can't really control that unfortunately. Vote changes give me a huge chore each time in the tallying process but I allow it as some people may change their mind on something, which is fine. If someone wants to tactically vote, not much I can do about itDon't allow people to change their lists and tactical vote. Jesus how pety.
This is not a bad shout but I've spent hours counting yesterday and refuse to go back and do that againSeriously though maybe you should change it so people only get as many points to play with as things they vote.
For example someone voting 1. South Park 2. The Shield would give 2 points to South Park and 1 point to the Shield.
As an experiment I might try both methods on the votes for this round and see how big the differences are. Once all the votes are in.This is not a bad shout but I've spent hours counting yesterday and refuse to go back and do that again
To be fair, the way the contest is, I do truly feel the best stuff will get through.
I mean I'm happy to do it that way if there is a consensus.As an experiment I might try both methods on the votes for this round and see how big the differences are. Once all the votes are in.
At least that still means ranking tv shows. Rather than voting only one show in a group and giving it +3 relative to everything else.As long as the votes are public there will always be a loophole. If two shows are fighting neck-and-neck over that sweet 2nd place, then you could just vote for all shows (even if you haven't seen them) and put the competitor in last place.
Meh... I'd rather people just weren't dickheads, but I get that this is naive to hope for. In any case, I think it's better that a show misses out because not enough people saw it than a show missing out because 2-3 sneaky posters actively sabotaged it!At least that still means ranking tv shows. Rather than voting only one show in a group and giving it +3 relative to everything else.
So how is it scored when people vote for only 1-4 options? If they vote for let's say 2 options, those are awarded 2 and 1 points? Because awarding 5 and 4 and 0 for the others wouldn't be very fair.
We could have gotten there on Monday, but better late than never.The rules have been updated in the OP. Will tally again today.
These awards need a name in honor of all the hard work @Dirty Schwein does for us.This is why the Oscars end up being shite.
People coming in voting one show and bouncing could be seen as tactical too. We're fighting backDon't allow people to change their lists and tactical vote. Jesus how pety.
I just keep thinking that Dirty Schwein sounds like an euphuism for a bumhole. So i'm the last person that should be naming this.These awards need a name in honor of all the hard work @Dirty Schwein does for us.
The Dirties? The Schweinies?
Yup. What is even the point of voting in a group you have seen just one show? I mean, maybe they even think it was absolutely terrible show, that they only watched because their spouse wanted to. So why get more points than other shows by default. Personally I would disqualify all 1 show voters. But we have had enough rule changes already.People coming in voting one show and bouncing could be seen as tactical too. We're fighting back
Tbf I don't know the scores but I have a good impression that certain things are close.
I needed time to see sense.We could have gotten there on Monday, but better late than never.
Wow. This thread has better drama than some of the shows that got posted.
One of my Top3 best ever series.You have successfully fecked over Chernobyl. My favourite show in group 2
Because it sounds like Dirty Shrine, which, to some people, the bumhole is. @rimaldoI just keep thinking that Dirty Schwein sounds like an euphuism for a bumhole.
@Dirty Schwein I saw you updated rules. Not sure now if it's better to vote for shows we haven't seen or leave them off the list but I guess I'll vote for all five now to give my number 1s full points.

- The Americans
- Dark
1. The Wire
