The Ultimate So Bad It's Good Top 25 Reboot (new rules)

[Rev. Powell]

Seeing as there was an issue with the system I devised after getting the initial 25 films, we're going to try a different method.

Each film on this list starts with 10 points. We begin with a field of every movie that was nominated in the original top 25 poll (https://www.badmovies.org/forum/index.php?topic=160386.30), all starting at equal footing. (To start, there are 31 movies, with room for 19 more nominees).

Movies will be removed from the field if they reach 0 votes.

Every day ("day" defined as the 24 hour period starting at midnight, US Eastern Standard time), you have three moves. You can add or subtract 1 point from 3 different movies.

As one of your moves, you may instead suggest one new movie to add to the list of candidates, until we reach a field of 50. After that, new movies can be added only when a spot opens after a movie is removed.

The rules may get fine-tuned as we continue.

adding Hobgoblins to the this

+1 to No Holds Barred
+1 to Fatal Deviation 

[M.10rda]

Rules confuse and vex me so much. I deal w/ enough of 'em through work... thus "games" that involve rules have always similarly flummoxed me. I generally need cheat codes for most video games.  I see similar tendencies in ASD kids I work with or know. My niece has never played a board game by the rules in her twelve-year life. She simply won't stand for it...

Anyway, I will keep cheering you on from the sidelines.........

Before I contribute, just one quick question? 


Should we keep the list in alphabetical order or list the movies by ranking?

Should we keep the list in alphabetical order or list the movies by ranking? 

I was keeping them in alphabetical order to make it easier to find a movie you're looking for. I'll also highlight the top ones. Then if this goes long enough to get separation between the titles, we can have a top 25 list. See next post.
