19 voters so far! Thanks everyone! However there were 5 people who chose over 20 episodes – 21, 21, 23, 24, 25. I felt like I was clear in the directions. I’m leaning towards deleting all of the voters who cast over 20 votes, since this definitely affects the final outcome, but I’m open to hearing what the group thinks.
Hm. Well it’s easy to accidentally do one or two more. I kept having to recount to make sure I was at 20. 5 more is a bit much *but* I also don’t want those votes to suddenly affect the entire outcome by not being there (or by being there).
I would say keep the two 21’s (again, easy mistake)
Yes, I’m willing to give the the 21’s the benefit of the doubt – it is easy to miscount by 1 or 2. If the poll would allow me to limit the number of choices I would do so. So I agree in keeping those, but I’m less likely to keep the others. I hate to discount all of their votes, but it’s not really fair to the everyone else to kept their votes limited to 20 – I could easily have picked 5 more lol. But removing all of those votes effects the outcome too. A few other options could be to either give everyone grace for this first round OR we could discard this poll and repeat it and expect everyone to count correctly/not over vote this time. Any over votes would then be deleted if it happened again.

Agreed. Allow it…. But just this once. Remember everyone, only TOP 20.

Keeper Of Tamara's Taser , Jafar's Staff, Kitsis’s Glasses , Ariel’s Tail, Dopey's Hat , Peter Pan’s Shadow, Outfit, & Pied Cloak,Red Queen's Castle, White Rabbit's Power To World Hop, Zelena's BroomStick, & ALL MAGICOk I just voted. It was extremely painful, but I did it. I recounted three times so I’m pretty sure I only sent in twenty.
I may complain about the shows quality from time to time, but looking at that list certainly reminds you how many great episodes there have been. It was painful to only vote for twenty. Granted I picked 8 from season 1 and 0 from season 6, so I guess maybe quality is an issue after all.
I agree that the people who voted 21 are probably accidents and I’m fine with keeping those. 23-25… come on. I know it’s painful to only get to pick twenty, but a limit had to be set somewhere. I would’ve loved to save at least ten more episodes, but I’m ok with the twenty I picked and I’m very interested to see which episodes top the list and which fall off without a vote.
Oops I only did 10 I think… Should I leave it or go pick 20 more?
Private message me with a 15 min. time frame, and I’ll open up it back up for you to pick just 10 more, for a total of 20.
If there are no objections, I’m going close this first poll and open the next one a few hours early at 7 P.M. Central. That will get the rounds on a better starting/ending time for my personal schedule. So if you haven’t voted yet, you have 9 hours left!
The Round 1 Poll is now closed! 23 people voted (not counting those who over voted). This is a better turnout than I expected, which is great! Let’s all take a moment to mourn the loss of the following 25 episodes – each received 0 votes – that brought us things like gold – the greatest threat to True Love’s Kiss, lycanthropic mommy issues, blue ghost young Cora, poisonous magical ice cream, baby snatcher Snow and Charming, Emma’s Jacket: The Backstory, and that time Regina finally got to murder? the Charmings:

Full Poll Results: https://goo.gl/GDUf9i
A few questions to consider and discuss below:
– What were the biggest surprises for you? What wasn’t surprising?
– What episode are you most disappointed to see go?
– Why do you think the episodes in the Top 10 and Bottom 20 were the episodes they were?
– Will knowing these results change how you vote in the next round?
Finally, the Round 2 Poll is now open! It will only be open for 48 hours this time! Again, vote for ONLY your Top 20 favorite episodes. Anyone votes that exceed 20 will be deleted. Note that if more than one person in your household votes on the same device it will appear you have over voted. The Bottom 20 will be eliminated once again. Any episodes receiving 0 or only 1 vote will be eliminated even if the number exceeds 20. Happy voting and discussing! Newcomers feel free to join!
Round 2 Poll: https://goo.gl/E2a9vJ
– What were the biggest surprises for you? What wasn’t surprising?
Biggest surprise: Um….honestly surprised the musical episode isn’t in the top. I mean, I know it wasn’t htebest but it was still something iconic for the show. Interesting. I’m not surprised at all though of the ones that did make it to the top.
– What episode are you most disappointed to see go?
hmm…I think Kansa and the bleeding through episode. Both were pretty interesting episodes. :/
– Why do you think the episodes in the Top 10 and Bottom 20 were the episodes they were?
the episodes in the top were big episodes for certain characters (1×02 for Regina, 1×12 for Rump and Belle, 2×06 for Emma, etc,etc) so its a no brainer. Plus all of these are some of the shows best written episodes and obvious fan favorites.
– Will knowing these results change how you vote in the next round?
Nope.

I’m surprised “Dreamy” made it through, but “What Happened to Frederick didn’t. “Dreamy” was by far the weakest episode of S1 in my opinion. I’m also surprised neither of the Lily-centric episodes made it through, yet many of us on here want to see her story resolved. I’m also a little surprised “The Savior” didn’t even get 1 vote. It wasn’t my favorite, but I figured it would at least be someone’s. On the flip side, I was not surprised to see Season 1 fare the best as far as eliminated episodes went and Season 5 do the worst.
– What episode are you most disappointed to see go?
I suppose it would be “Enter the Dragon” It certainly wasn’t in my top 20 or even 40 probably, but it was a good backstory for 4B’s only surviving new villain.
– Why do you think the episodes in the Top 10 and Bottom 20 were the episodes they were?
I think half of the Top 10 were S1 because that was the best written season when we all fell in the love with the show. It felt innovative and surprising still. I think all of the Top 10 were pre-3B since it seemed the writers ran out of their planned story from the beginning at that point, as many of us have said. To me, that explains many of the Bottom 20 episodes as well.
– Will knowing these results change how you vote in the next round?
No, since only episodes with zero votes were eliminated. I’m very interested to see if anything changes because of others’ vote changes though.
