The first 3 polls have closed, and we have 1 winner so far.

 

[calsnowskier]

So far, Caddyshack, Empire Strikes Back, Godfather I and Jaws have all won outright.

The other closed polls will have a runoff after the rest of the initial polls are closed.

 

[calsnowskier]

More polls closed this morning (K-N).

I wanted to post R-T yesterday, but the site has just been super unreliable on my iPad, so I didn't bother. They will be posted tomorrow AM (hopefully). If all goes well, the initial polls will be done this week, and we can do the runoff next week. I will keep the runoff polls open for only 1 day each and I will try to post 5 or so per day. That SHOULD allow us to have this done by the end of next week.

Lonesome Dove isn't included therefore I refuse to participate.

Lonesome Dove isn't included therefore I refuse to participate.

Actually, Lonesome Dove was included in the nomination phase, but it didn't receive enough votes, so it didn't make the final cut.

Thus my angry protest! This is a lie and a sham!

[Mistaken4193]

Your not gonna include 61* in the # poll??

 

[calsnowskier]

We had a nomination phase, and it did not qualify.

 

[calsnowskier]

All initial polls have now been posted, and only "U" through "Z" and the # category remain open.

So far, only 5 have completely been resolved...

Caddyshack
Empire Strikes Back
Godfather
Jaws
One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest

The others will have the runoff polls posted next week. Each poll will only be open for 1 day and I will try to post about 5 or so polls per day.

 

[calsnowskier]

Wizard of Oz wins outright, but "U" and "V" both go to a runoff.

 

[calsnowskier]

The first round of polling is now over. I will post a schedule for the runoffs later today. The first batch will be posted on Monday.

 

[calsnowskier]

On Monday, I will post the polls with more than 2 remaining options. This way, I can run the second runoff (if needed) later in the week. I may adjust the overall schedule to accommodate further runoffs.

A second runoff will only be triggered if one of the remaining options is eliminated. For example, if movie "A" gets 40%, and movies "B" and "C" both get 30%, there will not be a runoff. But if movie "A" gets 40%, movie "B" gets 35% and movie "C" gets 25%, there will be a final runoff between "A" and "B".

This process WILL be finished by the end of next week.

Another change...

No more changing your vote. This thing has been going on long enough, and there are not a lot of options remaining.
