Semantics.

Clearly you don't know how to write an iron clad contract.

Alright, gentlemen, I think it's about time to play my hand. Late enough to leave an impression, early enough to have fireworks to watch.

Kill: ReBoot
Kill: ReBoot
Save: Courage

Reason: As much as I like ReBoot and would have liked to see it saved, I love Courage more.

 

[KalBalboa]

Kill: ReBoot
Kill: ReBoot
Save: Courage

Is it even feasible to flip Courage and Reboot at this point? Heck, I'd like to see either go at this stage, but I wonder what the tally is.

I've kept count...

As far as you know.

This is 90's survivor. Simpsons was amazing in the 90's.

90s Survivor is the name of the game, and seasons 1-10 are so perfect that it's really hard to argue the likes of Tiny Toons against it. The material after season 10 isn't even that bad, from what I've seen, and if we're talking about the best, most definitive 90s cartoons.... how can't The Simpsons be high up there?

Quite true. Does this mean we should cut our post 90's distaste for it out of the equation? I do remember loving the earlier season, but nostalgia is a tricky thing.

I go by the "90s'" mantra in this thread, and what's more 90s than Bart Simpson, truly?

Indeed you should.
The earlier seasons are still really really good and still hold up, nostalgia be damned.

Kill courage
kIll courage
save Reboot

Cause courage has a worse dog and no incoming games.

 

[Divvy]

Yeah I don't see a scenario where Reboot The Simpsons doesn't take the crown. It certainly deserves it for the entire 90's run.

How about Batman: TAS winning instead.

Oh yeah. My GAF name and all that. Hmm. Now I'm conflicted. xD

 

[Divvy]

Batman is great too, probably #2 for me. But it doesn't compare to the Simpsons for me, not even close. So much of the Simpsons has permeated our culture and my everyday lingo as well. I can remember practically every joke in the first 10 seasons, while I can't even remember most of the episodes of Batman.

The Simpsons will be killed for Reboot.

If Reboot survives again, I say this happens.

 

[The Adder]

Kill courage

Just going to kamikaze them both. DBZ's the option you want to save either.

 

[BinaryPork2737]

The Simpsons will be killed for Reboot.

Not gonna lie, that would be amazing.

 

[KalBalboa]

So far, very few of my top 10's got nixed thus far, which has me pretty satisfied (outside of the hair-pulling Daria kill so early on).

Ren & Stimpy was too contentious for this kind of vote, and Beavis & Butthead lasted longer than I thought it could have given the kills we'd seen.

 

[Divvy]

Not gonna lie, that would be amazing Alphanumeric!

fixed

 

[BlackNMild2k1]

You think Simpsons will be that high? The quality of the show has suffered so much. Unless they're just holding on to pre-season 10 thoughts.

If I thought I could have rallied enough votes to kill off the Simpsons in one of the earlier rounds, I would have started a mass PM mailing list campaign. But for some reason, people found that show funny, and here it is in season 25(?) now and only dying off because the people making it wanted to retire. We should all ban together and kill it off next round before it becomes a problem in later rounds.

 

[A Human Becoming]

3. The Simpsons
2. Batman: The Animated Series
1. Reboot

Calling it now, heh.

The Simpsons will be killed for Reboot.

 

[KalBalboa]

I can practically hear the PMs going around right now in an attempt to save Reboot, heh.

Spoiler

They'll likely succeed.

Needs Batman!

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Haha Brilliant

 

[Jado]

Absolution, I dont doubt you but count carefully. It's gonna be close.

 

[KalBalboa]

Absolution, I dont doubt you but count carefully. It's gonna be close.

Also, watch out for those edit time stamps, heh.

 

[Jado]

Is there a rule not to count votes edited after 12:00am? That makes sense to me.

There's got to be. It'd only make sense.

 

[LordCanti]

There's got to be. It'd only make sense.

There is, thanks to that round where he double posted by accident and then edited one out after midnight.

 

[789shadow]

Has to be. You have no way of knowing what was edited, so better to throw out the whole vote.

 

[TheAbsolution]

Oh I will.
If you wanna watch some sexy vote tallying action CLICK HERE!

Spoiler

I was at home and the internet there was still spotty so that's why no Google Docs this past weekend. It'll likely be the same next weekend. Sorry guys.

Oh and in case you thought that forgot or weren't sure.
VOTING FOR ROUND 25 IS NOW CLOSED!

Results posted in about a half hour.

 

[ЯAW]

Hah! Reboot has no chances against GAF's Simpsons collective. To be honest, I think Simpsons should win. It might be safe and boring choice for number one but it deserves it. Show aired it's best seasons during the 90s and all those seasons hold up even today. If anything the show has only gotten better with time.

 

[KalBalboa]

There is, thanks to that round where he double posted by accident and then edited one out after midnight.

Who, Conflict?

Looks like we're locked!

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Well even if it's gone, Reboot had a nice run. Reminds me I need tot rack down that DVD collection of the entire series.

 

[AniHawk]

i am the angel of death.

the hour of purification is at hand.

You made the right decision. Let's make sure Arnold isn't in any danger anytime soon so that we don't have to do anything that silly ever again.

 

[Jado]

I am so tired.

 

[KalBalboa]

I am so tired.

Haha, easily the best post tonight.

 

[LordCanti]

I'm also pretty wiped out and trying to enjoy the last few minutes of this holiday.

 

[Divvy]

YESSSS

 

[LordCanti]

YESSSS

Wat?

Edit: Oh I didn't even see that you could watch the spreadsheet.

 

[AniHawk]

considering what's left, i'm going to start eliminating the shows that entertained me the least, starting with darkwing duck and tiny toons.

 

[Divvy]

Wat?

I'll let Absolution post the results before commenting to avoid spoilers

EDIT: Or I guess Anihawk can just spoil it lol

 

[FourMyle]

Finally...

 

[LordCanti]

I can get on the Darkwing Duck/Tiny Toons train for a (hopefully) drama-free Tuesday.

 

[KalBalboa]

I was originally worried we'd have only action shows and the like for the final ten, so consider me impressed that GAF voted off things like TMNT (among others) already. It makes killing things like Tiny Toons and Darkwing more easy to stomach.

 

[789shadow]

I can't stop getting out of bed and checking to see if results are posted.

i'd really like to get rid of batman beyond and superman too. because let's be honest, the only dcau show people care about from this decade is batman.

dbz can go too, but it felt more... relevant than batman beyond or supes.

 

[TheAbsolution]

YOU STUPID DOG!/ What a bloodbath!

Somehow we've ended up at the end of the reboot journey but alas, it was lain with a lot, I mean a lot of casualties along the way. Spongebob, Doug and now Courage.

The top two for this round were for the first time , TIED in net votes.
Top 2:

2. Reboot with 35(Most ever in a single round!) kills and 18 saves. (NET 17)

Top 5 for this round

2. Rugrats with 6 kills and 1 save
3. Rocko's Modern Life with 3 kills and 1 save (Tied)

There were not enough saves to have a bottom 2.

Stats

[Divvy]

YUS! Reboot top 15 finish! Killed off that damn dog too!

 

[AniHawk]

thank you reboot, for sacrificing yourself to rid the world of the menace that was the non-90s show, courage the cowardly dog. i can't believe it lasted a whole week under fire, but it completed its mission.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Doug didn't even make it?
