The New Adventures of ILXor: The Animated Series Poll voting and campaigning thread

Ah, cool that it's being bumped back, I was just coming on to say that I wouldn't be able to submit by tonight.

Old Lunch- Have you seen the GI Joe Animated Movie? I'm not really into GI Joe but that's honestly one of my favorite films, very funny and gross film. People might say I just like it because I was a kid when I saw it, but I still love this and mostly don't care about Star Wars, Indiana Jones, Power Rangers etc.

I think the Ghostbusters cartoon was often better than the films.

Might give Steven Universe and Inhumanoids a go someday but anything that looks like it taken less than a few months to make is a very hard sell for me now.

i could have agonized over this for another few weeks i'm sure but i doubt i'll ever be happy w/ my ballot so i just submitted it as is

thx Mordy :)

I will catch up with submitted ballots over the long weekend and issue a final deadline

Voted!

Here is the second best theme tune

RAG, I have seen GI Joe: the Movie and I loved it as a kid but haven't seen it since. But since I'm apparently only watching GI Joe (which remains surprisingly great, Transformers...much less so, unfortunately) in preparation for this poll I'm sure I'll get to it soon.

Imho the GI Joe movie does not stand up well at all.
Original animated Transformers movie, otoh, is still fantastic.

The last time I watched the GI Joe movie was in college, and it was as bonkers and awesome to me then as it was when I saw it as a kid. (Kid-meee also found it scary at times too.)

I've reached the last handful of episodes of Gravity Falls and, well, WOAH.

i'd never heard of roobarb but that is a pretty killer theme tune!

If you like synthesizers a lot, sure.

I just found this and I will vote.

The Jem theme song gets stuck in my head 2-3 times a year and idk I think it's pretty sick.

It's not nominated but I love "Tales From The Tour Bus"

For me, the Gi Joe film is the best squicky horror film and most hilariously quotable film ever. "Even their airforce is ugly!"

Most of this is from the series but very funny too. "C'mon Slaughter, kick his face in!"

submitted!

oh i submitted last week, ended up filling my ballot out with recent anime due to the threatened proration rule so it's impossible to say if it's good or not

How much time do I have? My hastily compiled ballot is ready, but could use some tweaking.

Just got back from my holiday, assumed I'd missed voting in this, but there's still time? I could throw together a ballot tonight if you'll allow it Silby!

There’s still time, I might allow the remainder of the week. I’m still hoping a few Brits who have been participating in the threads will get ballots in. Also, people who are not men are heartily encouraged to submit ballots, especially if you are just lurking. If you’re reading this and have an ilx account you are an eligible voter!

Very cool, will get to work.

Ballot update! So far I have 16 ballots, voting for at least 166 different shows.

Waiting on ballots from quite a few who have been active in the threads! Trayce, imago, TT, mh, Brad, DJP: be part of history

deadline

I shall be tabulating final results and communicating them to rollout associates Leee and Thermo at an unspecified time over this upcoming weekend. Ballots received after Friday 9/6 Anywhere on Earth (https://time.is/Anywhere_on_Earth) may not make it in, so consider that your deadline.

I'm not sure how my all time favorite animated show missed the nomination list but I'll be voting it #1 in show and theme song.

Despite not being important enough to get a shout out in the "ballots, please" list, I'll try to get something in by tomorrow.

emil.y you are absolutely important enough I just ran out of steam typing people's names I feel badly for excluding you

Aw, sorry for making you feel bad, I'm just already in a wallowing-in-self-pity mood today. Need to console myself with some '80s kids toons or something.

Half thought about doing this but I'm not sure if just typing out The Raccoons 30 times would be helpful

Crap sorry I forgot. I have a list done just not sorted, will try and finish it today.

Oh shit, I don't think I ever raised this but now I'm actually sorting my ballot: Liquid Television was an anthology show, rather than one consistent animated series - does it actually count? It was ridiculously formative for me, but I feel like it goes against the rules of the poll to vote for it...

Anthology shows are probably more out of scope than in but it's on the list so plz vote for it if you like

It contained at least one of the other entries (Aeon Flux) iirc

Only partially, right? I.e. the series was full-length (20-something minutes).

Yeah, series was its own thing spun off from the Liquid Television shorts.

I decided to cut it out, I don't think it does fit the brief even though it was ace. Have sent my ballot through now, it was massively rushed but I've not really had the right head on to do this properly so I just went with my gut/ruthlessly cut.

trust your gut, it's all in fun, we just want to have a fun list to look at in the end! Thanks emily!

compiling a ballot. as it stands, my top 3 is the two most wholesome things on the nomination list sandwiching the least

will be turning in a ballot by tomorrow at worst

Sorry, I completely forgot about this, but I will send a ballot today.

Tuomas! 🙌

Done by tonight. tt as well

are you sending confirmation emails?

Yes, but upon processing, not receipt.
