The first five that come to mind:
"Teen Phalanx Forever!" #67335
"Mercytown" #6017
"Captain Skylark Shadowfancy and the Tomorrownauts of Today" #337333
"The Invasion of the Bikini Clad Samurai Vampiresses from Outer Space" #61013
"The Curse of the Emerald Parakeet" #1567
Eva Destruction AR/Fire/Munitions Blaster
Darkfire Avenger DM/SD/Body Scrapper
Arc ID#161629 Freaks, Geeks, and Men in Black
Arc ID#431270 Until the End of the World
I hadn't really noticed how many of my favorites are already DCed. Anyway, how about these for starters:
A Hero in Need... #375018 - Wrong Number
Suppression #374481 - Arrowrose
The Echo #1688 - MrCaptainMan
The SOLUS Foundation - a Liberty and Pinnacle SG
"The Consequences of War" - Arcs # 227331 and 241496
No one else with any favorites? Or just too many lists here?
Doctor Giest and the Scientific Method #111022
Becky's Revenge #60197
Out of the Gutters #68054
The History of Statesman #219484
I don't know if any of these are still functional, but they are the ones I remember being a lot of fun back in the day. Out of the Gutters was especially memorable because it had such an interesting take on becoming a villain.

I can't think of the specific info for my favorite arcs this very moment (I'll edit this post when I get the chance to actually look up the numbers in-game), but as a tangent to the topic, it would be a nice feature of the in-game AE system if we could tag arcs as favorites which would have their own tab in the browser, so we could go and find arcs we liked very easily.
These are the arcs I can think of off-hand and find the numbers for on the forums.

These are just arcs that I, personally, like. (Urgh, found that I initially listed 8 arcs, had to be ruthless to cut down to 5.)

The goal of this thread: to make an arc recommendation list based on player's favorite arcs. The higher up an arc is listed, the more people find that arc as one of their favorites.
How to contribute: Reply with a list of no more than five favorite arcs, in no particular order, I will take people's favorites and work them into a ranked list - based on how many people choose the arc as their favorite. The more people contribute, the better the list will be. Duplicate favorites are encouraged. Also, please do not list your own arcs, and I would recommend against Dev Choice or Hall of Fame arcs, they've pretty much already been favorited in-game. Thank you.
Also, feel free to make changes to your own favorites. Just not too often please, and keep your list no more than 5, for each new one you add, pick one of your previous favorites to remove. It's possible I may increase the maximum at some point, so double check the first post.
