Episode Wars
History
Episode wars was created by myself years ago in S3. It had a lot of success but I never went back to it. Now years later, I have decided to resurrect the game due to the fact that I was tired of all the "favorite episode/season" threads going around. The game allows people to vote based on their favorite episode on the number in the season. When I initially resurrected this game, I had no idea how popular would become. Now five years later, it has become a summer tradition that a lot of KSite people look forward to. I only hope that we get the majority of the players back this year because it was taken out of the general forum and moved to the Smallville Games section awhile back.
Example :
Round One
Episode 1- Pilot , Vortex, Exile, Crusade, Arrival, and Zod
Episode 2 - Metamorphosis, Heat, Phoenix, Gone, Mortal, and Sneeze
Episode 3- Hothead, Duplicity, Extinction, Facade, Hidden, and Wither
You choose your favorite eps based on the episode number.
A round should look like :
Episode 1 - Exile
Episode 2 - Heat
Episode 3 - Hidden
Then 4-6 and so on..
Goal :
To establish a 22 episode season based on the fans' choices of each episode number.
Rules
1) Once your choices are made, there is no going back for the round. All votes are final. I keep a running total of votes through out the round, to prevent vote changes.
2) You are allowed to post why you made the choices you did, and discussion is allowed and highly encouraged. Debating is half the fun. However, PLEASE keep the discussions civil and do not bash someone for their choices. Remember that everyone is entitled to their opinion.
3) If there is a tie, which happened more than a few times the last time around, there will be a 3 day sudden death vote off between the two episodes that tied.
4) Each round will consist of three days to get as many votes as possible. Please make sure to highlight your choices clearly with the black text modifier to make it as easy as possible when I am tallying the votes. Also make sure to state the episode number you are voting for.
The black text modifier is putting a B in brackets before your choice, and then after your choice putting a /B in brackets.
5) Due to the fact that S2 has 23 episodes, Calling/Exodus are combined as one episode to face off against the other season finales, with the acception of Tempest since it is number 21 of S1.
