OP
At long last I have finished recording and tallying the lists from many DPAD members, with the final total of movies nominated being 360 all up. The most popular movie chosen was Terminator 2: Judgement Day with 10 votes out of the 27 total lists.
This will be the thread where the results are recorded and some future contests are visible beforehand.
Out of the 360 total nominations, 94 movies received more than 1 nomination and the other 266 received one nomination each. The 94 movies with multiple nominations are moving on to Round 2 automatically.
For this face off format, there will be multiple rounds. In Round 1, there will be 2 face-offs every week between 6 random movies (out of 266) which each received exactly 1 nomination. The most popular movie every vote will be moving forward to Round 2. Every face-off will last 48 Hours, with the first one of the week starting on Monday and the second finishing late on Saturday. I will try and post around the end time to let people know the final results. (I will try to keep the timings as consistent as possible.)
Deadlocks will be face-offed at a future date, which will usually be the upcoming weekend.
{ To neatly divide 266 by 6, 2 random titles from Round 1 were chosen to go to Round 2,(Evangelion 3.0+1.0 and There's something about Mary). Resulting in 264 for Round 1.}
For Round 2 in the future, the 96 (94+2) entries will be facing off with the winners from Round 1 (44).
These will be joined by 10 saved movies that were eliminated from Round 1, leading to a total of 150 Round 2 entrants.
The face-offs will be between 2 films and will be occurring every weekday for 24 hours, with the winners moving on to Round 3.
For Round 3 , the 75 winners from Round 2 will be joined by 5 saved movies that were eliminated in that round, and these 80 films will be facing off randomly once again, with face/offs occurring every weekday for 24 hours.
For Round 4, the 40 winners of Round 3 will face/off every weekday, with the winners moving on to Round 5. (No more saves :0)
This will result in DPAD's Top 20 Movies at the conclusion of the Round.
In Round 5, the Top 20 will face/off every weekday, with the winners moving on to Round 6.
This will result in DPAD's Top 10 Movies at the conclusion of the Round.
Then, during Round 6, the Top 10 will be further refined during the week of Face/Off's to result in the Top 5 most popular movies.
This will then lead to the Semi-Final where the Top 5 will be all pitted against each other in a 5 way Face/Off, similar to Round 1, with the Top 2 movies facing off in the Final Face/Off in the Final vote.
The winner of the Final Face/Off will be the Top Movie of all Time chosen by the members of DPAD.

I can't believe it's been around 3 weeks break, but no matter. I think it will be round 19 we restart at, but I'll double check on Wednesday.
