YACoin because everybody can mine it with the CPU.

You can mine any coin with a CPU.

Not bitcoin

Why not?

Go ahead

Edit: I guess what he means, is that you can watch some numbers scrolling down at the command prompt, which looks like you are mining, but in reality you are just "trying" to mine without any success.

OK, this forum should be renamed.

Petition the mods.  They'll get right on that.

bitcoin is an alt coin too. it's an alternate form of currency.

Yes, Bitcoin is an alternative form of currency.  Not an "alt-coin".  

You're working on a different definition than everyone else that posts on this forum, and in particular this sub-forum.  

But assuming we live in a world where "alt-coin" includes Bitcoin, then yes.  Bitcoin is the best coin.

Litecoin, but not due to any technical merits (other than Scrypt), but because it has started to be accepted by some fairly big sites (The Pirate Bay comes to mind). If you want to gauge only by the technicals, then Namecoin and PPCoin are probably up there at the top of the list.

Best does not mean most used.

Well then you'll have to define best.  Best could mean 1,000 different things.  And if you don't like the answers your given, don't ask the questions.

Litecoin.  Anyone that answers otherwise has something to personally gain by their answer.

Besides Litecoin, you might as well ask "What is the best food?"  You'll get as many differing opinions.  

As far as my opinion goes, I prefer PXC due to development support.
