Has anyone else ranked all 190 shorts in order from favorite to least favorite?

Seeing the 'Weekly Episode Discussion' board gave me this idea. I have ranked all 190 shorts by personal preference. I'm sure I won't have enough room to post them all in order, but my top 10 favorites are:

1. Dizzy Pilots
2. Self-Made Maids
3. Three Little Beers
4. The Ghost Talks
5. Goof On The Roof
6. Violent Is The Word For Curly
7. Scrambled Brains
8. In The Sweet Pie And Pie
9. Yes, We Have No Bonanza
10. No Dough Boys

And my 10 LEAST favorites include...

181. Outer Space Jitters
182. Flagpole Jitters
183. Rusty Romeos
184. Hoofs And Goofs
185. Of Cash And Hash
186. Hula-La-La
187. Hot Stuff
188. Sweet And Hot
189. Bedlam In Paradise
190. Horsing Around

It took me a while, but it was fun and SO worth it. Has anyone else attempted this?
If there's no other place around the place, I reckon this must be the place, I reckon.

Between all the remakes and Besser shorts, not to mention the sheer number, I could not give an honest assessment of all 190 in exact order of preference.  I could maybe do a top 10, but even bottom 10 would be tough because a lot of those remakes blend together and it's hard to compare them to the other shorts.

I've never really done so deliberately, but I have rated all 190 shorts at one point or another here on the site, so I just ran a query against the database to create a list of my ratings.  Here are the results:

I'll try to add a page on the site this weekend to let members view their ratings in a list like that.   ;)

I could never rate the shorts in order because they change time to time. I might give it a shot to number them the way Rob did, the next time I have a little spare time.

I do the same thing.  Just continue to rate the episodes on the site as you normally would.  I saved the query I used to generate the list in my post, so this weekend I'm going to create a page that will list the episodes that you have rated, in descending order.  The page will always be up to date, as it will simply pull your ratings from the database each time the page loads.

There is no way I could begin begin to rank all 190 shorts from favorite to least favorite. I know my favorite is Brideless Groom and my least favorite is Sweet and Hot, but to actually rank them from 1-190 is too arduous for me.

Aside from doing a top 10 and bottom 10 I dont see the point. Like what is the real difference between your 176th favorite and your 177th...at that point its just arbitrary. But top and bottom 10 definitly.
