If you're among the first people reading this post, and don't know how to play, hang on and I'm sure someone will explain it in the comments soon enough.

@CrimTV
Sorry, the rules weren’t here to see how to play the games. You’ll need to redo your votes. Basically, you copy and paste the posts of the person who voted before you. Take away the “(+/-)” info and do your own totals…but you can only do +1, -1, +2, -2, +3, and -3 one time in each category. So just do that for CBS, and NBC, and ABC, and Fox, and CW (you don’t have to vote for each network if you don’t want to), and then do the same thing with the All Stars decades’ shows votes. Can’t do +1 twice in the same category, for example. Some shows won’t get or lose any votes some rounds, but eventually as shows get eliminated (down to zero votes) they get taken off the list and eventually there’s a winner favorite. Before that happens we’ll often get to where we just vote with +2, -2, +3, -3 as more shows drop off the list.
In the meantime, whomever votes next please go off the votes from whoever voted before CrimTV (sorry).
^ Also, forgot to mention (for any other new players who might be reading)….you just vote once every 24 hours (or wait at least 24 hours before casting your next vote…it could be later, but then wait at least 24 hours again before the next time). And some of us like to end our votes by posting a quote from a TV show that’s in the all stars category or from one of the respective networks – if possible, note the season and episode # or just the date from when it aired if it’s a current show. I’ve noticed that on the CBS website they don’t list the season and episode #, but hulu does (yet hulu doesn’t show any CBS shows).
@Rebecca
OMG, sorry if I ruined the game so do I still use the totals from the previous player (for example if The New Normal had a score of 21, and I wanted to +3 then it would be 24?) Also is each decade in the all stars a different category?
REVISION OF MY VOTES (I UNDERSTAND THE RULES NOW!) – Only added 1 of each (-3, -2 etc) to each category

@CrimTV
Thanks, looks good. You’ve got it now! You could do separate posts if you want, instead of one long post with all the votes. Do the All Stars decades votes as one long post, though – easier. Next time, and wait 24 hours. Whenever the list gets shorter and the voting changes (like when the +1/-1 goes away), Ricky or someone will chime in and tell us usually.
