Re: January 22 Results (Round 59)

Posted by Computer Voice:
Destiny winning doesn't really surprise me. I was never a great fan of Deja Q.

Still, I always thought it was a hugely popular episode. I think it's good, and IMO it was the best of the five here, but is it a little overrated? Yes, sure.

"Yesterday" scores in another record-setting round

TNG's classic Yesterday's Enterprise has become the episode with the most votes ever in a Clash! (see the thread here) 40 of them paved its way into our hall of fame, and not unexpectedly. The other contenders - runner-up Visionary with 9, Before and After with 5, Is There In Truth No Beauty with 4 and Carpenter Street with 2 votes - didn't stand a chance.

Re: February 1 Results (Round 61)

Looking ahead, Round 62 is going to be a tough one for me, with what I consider one of the best season 3 TOS episodes, my second favorite VOY episode and a great DS9 episode all clashing in the same round.

 

[Eddie Roth]

Re: February 1 Results (Round 61)

^^^^ You like "The Empath", too? We've got to be the only two people who think so. Pity though. Great show.

 

[Corwwyn]

Re: February 1 Results (Round 61)

I also like "The Empath", just not as much as "The Offspring".

I wasn't overly fond of this minimalist TOS episode when I first saw it as a youngster, but I've come to appreciate it in more recent years. That actress emotes wonderfully.

DS9 ties championship

With Through The Looking Glass winning Round 63, DS9 joins TOS at the top of the heap, both with 19 out of 64 rounds won. But it was certainly close. Glass's 16 votes put it just ahead of:

The Tholian Web's 14,
Sins of the Fathers's 12,
Proving Ground's 10,
and Distant Origin's 7 votes.

Very democratic!

Well, it was up against "The Enterprise Incident" - that's a real Trek classic.

The Clash! takes a short hiatus. Round 69 starts in about 5 weeks, once ENT's next episode has aired.

 

[Seraphim]

If I might be allowed this brief sentiment...

I must say that I love The Clash!
This series was a hit when it first debuted and has developed into a must have staple on the TrekBBS.

Everyone talks about which series is the best, but how many persons take the time to organize an episode by episode open vote and comaprison of each series?

Long Live the Clash -- the thread where the best is not just debated and quarreled over, but is measured and quantified.

Long Live the Clash indeed.

 

[Computer Voice]

Yes, Eddie Roth, you do good work! I hope we get to the magic 100 per round soon!

 

[Corwwyn]

Yes indeed. Great work, Eddie!

 

[Eddie Roth]

Thanks, folks! It's very much appreciated, and I love doing the Clash!, too. See, I'm just a sucker for fun statistics and showbiz awards, you know, with nominees and winners and votes and odds and upsets, all that stuff. The Clash is like weekly Trek Oscar for me... I'm glad that our board members still enjoy it, and what's more, that recently, participation has hit totally new levels. Up until a year ago, the most votes a Round ever got was like 30. Now we're almost 70. And ever since we have the great new poll function, the voting threads have become more of a debate forum, which I like as well.

Long Live the Clash -- the thread where the best is not just debated and quarreled over, but is measured and quantified.

And this, my friends, is exactly what it's supposed to be. One might even say the Clash! is a scientific project.

 

[Eddie Roth]

Oh boy, what a long wait... It's almost like it's summer hiatus already! Still three weeks to go before the Clash! returns along with ENT. So, to entertain us all until then, here's a question for everybody:

Take a look at the list of Clash winners. If you could redo ONE round and pick a different winner, which would it be? Which episode should've, in your opinion, won its round, but didn't? And which of the episodes on the list doesn't belong there?
