Looks like we've got some crossed wires (possibly an autoblock/reciprocal block, those appear to be rather significant in this thread) so I am going to sync up the numbers first, then put my numbers in.

Based off the listed votes from post #445 and #446 but the seed values listed in #444 (which all appear to be consistent with the preceding several posts)
Original Dungeons and Dragons 4
Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, 1st Edition 61
Basic Dungeons and Dragons 42
B/X Dungeons and Dragons 38
BECMI Dungeons and Dragons 58
Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, 2nd Edition 50
Dungeons & Dragons, Rules Cyclopedia Edition 54
Dungeons & Dragons, 3.5 Edition 25
Dungeons & Dragons, 4th Edition 43
Dungeons & Dragons, 5th Edition 49

I believe that is all the numbers in their correct values.

I do find the overall pattern very interesting. E.g. 3e got thrown out pretty fast, but I'm not sure how to feel about 3.5e doing poorly but not super badly, since it's still 13 downvotes away from oblivion. There's very clearly a strong contingent that adore BECMI and AD&D 1e, 2e, and RC, since I've downvoted high-ranking ones several times and they remain at high rank. The existence of such a group on this board doesn't surprise me in the least though, nor did the removal of everything PF-related. There's a separate forum for PF content, so it was unlikely that any advocates would participate. 5e appears to be in an unusual position, where it has an almost perfect balance of 2 promoters for every detractor, which is honestly less favorable to it than I expected--indeed, according to the (old, no-longer-used) minimum popularity metrics at WotC as I understand them, that would have been seen as a failure!
