Okay, here are the tiebreaker rules

-You get to vote again. You can vote for the same show you voted for the first time, or a different one.

-Rocko's Modern Life advances. The other three shows are vying for the second place spot. This pretty much means that people who voted for Rocko are voting for their second choice (this is why Smurfs stays in despite it coming in third).

-Voting ends in 24 hours. Period.

-If it's still a tie after this, we run it again, with only 2 shows.

Get it done.

I'm not familiar with ReBoot, you guys know know how much I want Captain N to die a horrible death in this contest.

so Smurfs gets my vote.

Even though I personally think this SHOULD be a two way race, I'll go with Reboot.

I see why and respect the decision of the bunny, but Smurfs should not be an option in a tie breaker in which they were not involved in the tie.

Agreed Rydog

There was a tie between 2 options, not 3...which is why I would've probably voted Smurfs but voted Reboot out of respect to those who voted for it to begin with.

The reason Smurfs is in this is because the idea behind the poll is "What would the results be without Rocko's Modern Life?" If Rocko was stealing votes from Smurfs, it should get the chance to put in a better showing.

I know it doesn't appear fair, but that's the way I planned it to happen, that's the way a majority of people I discussed it with think it should happen, and...well, that's what's happening.

Don't like it, stop making bloody ties.

That's just the thing though, The Smurfs had their chance and people chose Rocko over it. I mean it's your poll, I was just voicing my position.

Your opinion is not without merit. It's just not the way I want to go.

People also chose Rocko over the other two choices, though, Dodd. We're now trying to gauge what the forums' collective second choice is. Myself, I preferred the Smurfs over Captain N and ReBoot, just not to Rocko. If there's a lot of people who feel like that, then the Smurfs could be the Forums' collective second choice, which is what should be moving along with Rocko.

Soooooo, should we redo every poll to see what the collective second choice is without the top dog in the race? I bet a few would flip.

Ry, there was a tie for second place. That means the boards are undecided as to their second choice, and we need to decide one. If the tie needs to be broken, anyway, then why not do it in the most honest fashion?

ReBoot is one of the best pieces of television in history. Impeccable parodies, layers upon layers of 90s programmer in-jokes, and that is only the first two seasons.The third season took a turn for the baddest ass since that guy who's ass destroyed puppy world's ass. Enzo grows up rapidly in the games, gets a gun, and a sweet ass cybernetic eye, and shoots the fuck out of shit all the way back to mainframe. Fuck. YES. The fourth season I have only seen once, but it is simply the logical continuation. Noting the continuation the fact that ReBoot is not finished is basically the only low point.


It's not rape if you rape everyone who accuses you.

I abstained on the first vote, and will probably abstain again here. I just don't like any of those shows, and in fact, hardly even ever saw them so can't rightfully vote for any.

Maybe you should just remake the poll and see if anything changes... Cool

In the future when a tie happens, just advance all that tie. That is more fair than allowing the last place a second chance because it is the "second favorite".
