The City on the Edge of Forever - because Spock's use of stone knives and bearskins was very MacGuyverish

Arena - because the cannon Kirk built was very MacGuyverish

The Doomsday Machine - mostly because of Peter David's novel, Vendetta (one of the very few Trek novels I've read), although I always liked how they used the auxiliary bridge to differentiate between the Enterprise and the Constellation

The Devil in the Dark - because of fond memories of my family referring to the Horta as "The Roving Pizza"

The Trouble with Tribbles - just because

Been and voted - listing all twenty is a bit much though so I'll wait until the field thins out a bit before doing that. The usual suspects (e.g 'Amok Time', 'Balance of Terror', 'Court Martial' 'Journey To Babel' etc) all got due recognition though.

It's getting tough now and the next couple of rounds are going to get painful for me.
 
I was sort of disappointed that many of my favorite episodes didn't make it past the first round. Well, I guess that's what happens when you love the third season.
 
It's been a week, so it's time to call this one. Below are the top 20 vote getters going into the next round at the time I called it. No more votes in this poll will count.

Mods, this one can be unpinned. Thanks. :)
