We have about 2 weeks before the Character Cup begins if the time table between nominations and the start of voting stays the same. So what's a Supernatural fan to do? My theory is why let a dead horse go to waste when you can continue to get something out of it. Therefore, I propose that we take the results of the Favorite Episodes Contest to determine the ultimate episode. I ranked episodes based on what percentage of votes it received. I felt this was more fair because it didn't matter how many people voted overall in a round. Then I used the format for the NCAA basketball championships (and the Best Show contest here) to determine which episodes go against each other. Basically, the NCAA has it where the highest ranked team goes against the lowest ranked team in the first round and then things get more interesting. I've added the ranking below. Unfortunately, I could not get a handy bracket like the ones Andy uses for the Best Show competition to work on my computer so everything will appear random for the first round. Trust me. It has a mathematical placement.
Before we begin this part of the contest, let's wrap up the final two Favorite Episode polls. For the penultimate episode, All Hell Breaks Loose, part 1 took first with 168 votes. That was 44% of the vote. Two Minutes to Midnight had 83 votes with 22% of the vote. For the finales we had great voter turnout with almost 600 votes. The winner was Swan Song with 216 votes, or 37%. All Hell Breaks Loose, part 2 came in second with 133 votes, which was 23%. Thanks to everyone who participated in that part of the contest. I hope people have fun with this new one. Oh, and because dead horse starts to smell bad quickly, we will be expediting this part. We will crown the winner in 11 days. Call it the speed round. Don't forget to pass the word and as always, comments are technology that never glitches or slows down. Happy voting! Screencaps by Supernatural Caps and Supernatural Fans Online
