Vote for the Eighth BATOM

Voting time has been extended. It ends at 2300 hrs (IST) on Mar 12, 2010

Let us welcome SpB!, the lone new member since yesterday.

Click here to check the fellow Blog-a-Tonics who took part in this Blog-a-Ton along with the direct links to their posts.

In this edition, 42 entries came in  within the stipulated time.

Please follow the following rules while voting:

1. You must cast only 1 vote and of course you can not vote for yourself.

Don't vote for more than one person because that will be of no use for any of them as your vote will be discarded without any prior warning.

2. Your Voting Comment should start as follows:

---

In case you participated -

I participated - http://vipulgrover.blogspot.com/2009/12/all-in-days-work.html

I vote for - XYZ; his/her post = http://ABC/xyz.html

Code:

<b>I participated - <a href="YOUR POST LINK">YOUR POST LINK</a></b>

<b>I vote for - NAME OF THE BLOGATONIC YOU VOTE FOR; his/her postlink = <a href="HIS/HER POST LINK">HIS/HER POST LINK</a></b>

---

In case you did not participate -

I did not participate but I am blogrolled by the name of Vipul Grover.

I vote for - XYZ; his/her post = http://ABC/xyz.html

Code:

<b>I did not participate but I am blogrolled by the name of YOUR NAME ON OUR BLOGROLL. </b>

<b>I vote for - NAME OF THE BLOGATONIC YOU VOTE FOR; his/her postlink = <a href="HIS/HER POST LINK">HIS/HER POST LINK</a></b>

---

Replace the parameters highlighted in red with their actual values.

Remember, in case you participated, your vote will be counted as 1 and in case you didn't, then it will just carry the 1/2 value.

Hence, do not forget to give your post link or blogrolled name (whichever is applicable as clearly visible in the above code) as it will decide whether your vote is counted as 1 or 1/2 in value.

3. DO NOT VOTE for those posts, links to which have been posted after the stipulated time.

Now coming to the other rules:

• Voting ends at  2300 hrs (IST) on  Mar 12, 2010.
• Post your vote in the comments section of this post.
• 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 one of them.
• In case there are multiple entries from any Blogger, while counting the votes received by him/her, the entries will be considered individually for the award.

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

So, if there is any query about voting or you do not find yourself blogrolled, feel free to drop in a mail at 'Contact The Marshal'. I'll try to get back to you asap.

Recent members, who have been duly welcomed in previous posts will be blogrolled within a day. So please bear with the delay.

A Humble Appeal : Please do not indulge in unfair Favouritism. Let us keep Blog-a-Ton clean of such practices.

Hoping to see genuine and fair voting

Blog-a-Tonically Yours
