Rory's Birthday Parties
Double Date
Those Are Strings, Pinocchio

 

And we have our final three! 

 

My vote: Double Date (I love it and have probably rewatched it more than I've rewatched the other two, but it's not *quite* as special to me)

My vote: RBP

 

How about doing worst episodes of all seasons?

 

I love this idea! We can vote against the first five eliminated from every round. Quick question, though: would we be voting for the best of the worst or the worst of the worst?! In other words, would the last episode left standing be the VERY worst episode (which I think would be a cool idea), or the one we liked best?

I know we're still finishing up the last round of our other game, but here's our list of the worst episodes from each season! (I feel compelled to add that I'd far rather watch nearly all of the worst episodes from S1-S4 than even the comparatively average episodes of later seasons!) These are the episodes that were voted off during the first two rounds, and since we eliminated three per round, that leaves us with 42 episodes. I figured we can start by voting for four episodes until we get down to 34 or so. And, remember, we're voting for the episodes on this list that we like most---or, er, dislike least :)

Wait, did TASP already win our game?! If so, congratulations to Strings! 

 

My votes for the best of the worst:

 

The Deer Hunters

Presenting Lorelai Gilmore 

Lorelai Out of Water 

Clamor and Clangor

Ins and Outs of Inns will never be a favorite of mine (I can't stand Mia and the fight between Sookie and Lorelai drives me nuts), but after rewatching it a few months ago, I was thrilled to see Luke outed as a sci-fi fan in this episode. I wish we'd seen more of secretly geeky sci-fi fan Luke in the series and am always hoping he'll pop up in fanfic :)

My head is already messed up trying to figure out how to vote LOL.  Thanks for the reminder that it's the ones we like 'best' out of the 'worst' at this point.

 

And, ack!  There's too many I want to try to save for at least a few rounds!

I was at work and couldn't weigh in earlier and now it's too late for this round, but I just wanted to remind you all that at some point not too long ago Taryn I think mentioned doing an elimination of Mrs. Kim scenes. So tuck that away in the idea file?

Heh---I didn't know that people lurked around the game threads without playing. I'd better make sure my vote counting is accurate! (I'm so math-impaired that one can never be sure.) 

 

Deer Hunters, Presenting Lorelai Gilmore and Clamor are safe from our wrath! Rather than run a million-way tiebreaker for the final spot, I'm thinking it makes sense to move on to the next round:

Lorelai Out of Water (or this one...)

Secrets and Loans 

Here Comes the Son (while the scenes from the ill-fated spin off are beyond awful, I actually really love the Connecticut-based scenes in this episode!)

Secrets and Loans, Here Comes the Son and Tick Tick Tick have been graciously pardoned by the voters, and the next round is open! 

 

My votes:

 

Paris is Burning 

The Ins and Outs of Inns (we've reached the point where there aren't many more episodes I like, so my fondness for secret sci-fi geek Luke overshadows my annoyance with Mia and the Sookie/Lorelai spat!)

Lorelai Out of Water

Die Jerk

Kiss and Tell, Ins and Outs of Inns and Afterboom can all exhale, as they're now all saved from the dreaded fate of being our Worst Episode Ever. The next round is open! 

 

My votes: 

 

Paris is Burning 

Lorelai Out of Water 

Die Jerk

Welcome back, nolie!!! I worry when a member of our cyber-family goes MIA :) Come catch up on the zillion photos we posted in the Guess the Episode thread! 

 

So, interestingly, the only episode to receive more than one vote was Lorelai Out of Water, which is now safe. Should we bother doing a 10-way tiebreaker, or just move on to the next round?!

Thanks guys---I was kind of dreading that 10-way tiebreaker :) Just vote for the three of the above that you most want to 'save'!
