    Andrew here! Wow Chris works quick!
    I’ve added a link to my main page (click above). The voting will start today and I’ll post results in a week. Of course, I’ll continue to collect votes after that, but one week for the first results.

    I’m fascinated by the page with the Project: Riff stats. The one stat that sticks out to me is that, other than Season 1, Hobgoblins has the least number of riffs per minute of any show. Interesting since it’s an extremely popular MST episode and yet has the least amount of jokes… I wonder if people get into the overt/campy silliness of the film so much that the low number of M&TB jokes gets ignored?

    Andrew, are there safeguards in place to prevent people from voting multiple times? All us Hamlet/Fu Manchu/Delta Knights fans could really screw up the results if we wanted to. :twisted:

    Hopefully this will satisfy those who asked for a new poll during our recent Overrated/Underrated Episodes discussion. If you’re like me, and I know I am, you’ll want to know what the results of our chat were. I added them all up and posted the final counts in comment #156.

    Finnias #5 – Nope! In honor of March Madness, it’s a free for all!! Even if I did have safeguards, you’d just delete the cookie and vote again. This way, those who have no idea what a cookie is can cheat, too!

    … that being said, I DO have some “other” safeguards in place. :cool: So if you’re gonna cheat, be clever. Also, I figure anyone passionate enough about an episode to vote for it multiple times REALLY likes it and it should naturally move up the list.

    But let’s all play nice and not crash my site, please. :|

    Hey,

    After my favorite MST3K episodes, they asked for my mother’s madin name, bank account number and PIN.

    I gave it to them of course, but now that I think about it, it seemed a bit odd. What does THAT have to do with liking Werewolf, Catalina Caper, and Sinbad?

    It was OK, right????

    ;-) ;-) :mrgreen:

  16. I certainly hope the fact that the site ignores an entire season of the show doesn’t mean my favorite episode (K10) won’t get its due.

  19. “If the MST3K movie was listed or a KTMA show was included, I removed it from the list.”

    Well, I must say that I’m very disappointed. There are around 200 episodes (the full number fluctuates depending on how you count the pilot, the two versions of 701, etc.).

    This means that by ignoring KTMA, you ignore fully 10% of the show.

    Without KTMA and the movie, the list is incomplete and inaccurate.

    Your opinion is your opinion and if you wish to ignore KTMA for your personal review purposes, that’s fine. But don’t tell me this is a poll of the fans’ favorite episodes if you’ve ignored votes for one tenth of them. (No matter how few those votes might be.) You could have at least mentioned that at the outset or named it “The Definitive ‘Favorite Cable Mst3k Episode EVER’ Poll”.
