Okay so, time for the ultimate showdown! We've had a voteoff for each Lemmings game (at least those of an L1-like nature), and come up with a best level from Orig, a best level from OhNo, a best level from Holiday / Covox / Prima, and a best level from everywhere else. Now, it's time to pit these against each other and see which level will get the title of Best. Official. Level. EVAR.*

* Maybe excluding those that weren't in the voteoffs.

So - I'm not going to write out all the general rules and stuff again. Y'all know how this works by now.

As for the structure - two rounds. The first round will allow you to vote for up to three (out of the four!) levels. The second round will be a one-on-one between the two top placed levels.

Note that unlike in the main voteoffs, if three levels get through to the second round (due to a tie), then another round with a similar structure to the first (allow voting for all-but-one) will take place first, rather than three levels competing directly for the win.

EDIT: Yep, we had a three-way tie in the first round; so there's going to be three rounds total. Two votes allowed in the second round. :P

So... let's get this going, then! Which level will be the ultimate?

geoo

Gahhh, I missed that I can vote for more than one level.

Spoiler
I voted for Lemmings' Ark, but I would have voted for both Lemmings' Ark and There's madness in the Method had I realized earlier.

I somehow expected that the more popular versions of Lemmigs (L1 > ONML > Genesis/Holiday) would have an edge simply due to more people having played them, but it seems like that's not so much the case.

namida

Alright, well, we had a three-way tie for first. Even if geoo hadn't made that voting mistake, it'd still be the same result as far as what goes on to the next round.

So, round two - this is three ways, you can vote for two levels, and two levels make it through. I expect this one will be a lot harder to decide. :P

Okay - it was close, but Lemmings' Ark has dropped out of the running! So here's the final round... one vote, choose carefully! :)

Well... there we have it.

As voted by the Lemmings community, the best official level (at least out of the L1-style ones) is...

Original Lemmings, Mayhem 20 "No added colours or Lemmings"!
