Three Cheers to all the Blog-a-Tonics.
Please follow the following rules while voting.

1. ONLY THOSE BLOG-A-TONICS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR VOTING (i.e., Contesting for votes and voting for others) WHO HAVE PARTICIPATED IN THIS EVENT WITHIN THE STIPULATED TIME.

2. AS PER OUR RULES LISTED IN BLOGATON 2.0 ANNOUNCEMENT, THE NUMBER OF VOTES IS NOW DETERMINED BY THE NUMBER OF ENTRIES. WE HAVE 21 ENTRIES THIS TIME. In this edition, you can cast upto 3 votes or cheers as we call them, and of course you can not vote for yourself. In short, you are allowed to vote for one, two, OR three. All your votes will carry the same weightage.

3.  Your Voting Comment should be as follows:



I, BLOGGER NAME, participated.
My Blog-a-ton 53 Entry Is Here: BLOGATON53 ENTRY LINK

I vote for:

1. BLOGATONIC 1 NAME: His/her entry is here: BLOGATONIC 1 ENTRY LINK
2. BLOGATONIC 2 NAME: His/her entry is here: BLOGATONIC 2 ENTRY LINK
3. BLOGATONIC 3 NAME: His/her entry is here: BLOGATONIC 3 ENTRY LINK

The voting format has been simplified for assisting you. Replace "BLOGGER NAME" by your name, and "BLOGATON53 ENTRY LINK" by the direct link to your BAT53 Entry. Likewise, for the votes, replace "BLOGATONIC 1 NAME" by the name of the entrant (as used in his/her participation entry) and "BLOGATONIC 1 ENTRY LINK" by the direct link to that blogatonic's BAT53 Entry. Votes NOT IN THIS FORMAT will not be accepted.

For eg: A valid vote can look like this:

4. While voting for a Blog-a-Tonic, use his/her name as provided by him/her in his/her participation entry and not his/her profile name.

5.  Post your vote in the comments section of this post.

6. All your votes should be posted in a single comment. So, take your time - go through all posts - only then decide your one or two or three winning entries. In case you vote separately, only the first comment will be taken into consideration.

Now coming to the other rules:
  • Voting ends at  22:59 (IST) on  SUNAY, April 12, 2015.
  • I have started moderating the comments and won’t display the voting comments till the end of this process to keep the result secret till its conclusion.
  • After the voting code mentioned above, you may also add the reason, why you voted for a particular post to help others know what you expect as a reader. Moreover, you may also mention the other posts that you liked though you can vote for just for three of them. 
  • A THOUGHT: Be it Gerneral Elections or Blog-a-Ton, it is your duty to vote, because you have the power to select the winner, so please DO NOT WASTE YOUR VOTE.

The Votes will be discarded without any prior warning in case they are not sufficiently compatible with the rules.

A Reminder - Have your number of participations reached 10 or 25??? Then you are eligible to be included into the List of Veteran Blog-a-Tonics.  Just drop a mail to "pendownmythought@gmail.com" with the links to all your posts (or simply label all your BAT entries and send Marshal that single link).



Remember, the time stamp of your comment can be at most 22:59 on April 12, 2015 and not 23:00 on April 12, 2015.  


May the best entries in this edition win..!
Poetically Yours,
Marshal,
Sarav

    My views for voting :

    1. Mired in a Chocolate Fantasy : The poems brings forth the sensual pleasure ingrained in a chocolate in an aesthetic manner. The word picture is vivid, vibrant and sensuous.

    2. Chocoderlla : The sheer imagination with which a fable has been converted into a cholicious story is marvelous giving it a new perspective altogether.

    3. Chocolate Ice Cream : Romance and nostalgia have been aptlu dipped in chocolate and cadence in this poem.

    In addition, I also like the following entries:

    1. Aativas' post captioned Bitter - sharp, precise and contemporary theme pivoting around chocolate
    2. Fact and Fiction's post captioned Forgiven - touching narrative
    3. Aayushi's post captioned Chocolate and Me - striking message
    4. SomeoneisSpecial's post captioned Life is a Chocolate - brings forth bittersweet taste of the chocolate
