Three Cheers for 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. SEEING THE POSITIVE RESPONSE FOR THE INCREASE IN NUMBER OF VOTES IN THE LAST EDITION, I'D LIKE TO IMPLEMENT THE SAME IDEA OF FIVE VOTES IN THIS EDITION AS WELL, IF YOU PEOPLE LIKE THIS CHANGE AND IF YOU PEOPLE AGREE, AND IF MARSHAL VIPUL AND LEO AGREES, MAYBE, FROM NEXT TIME WE CAN MAKE THIS AS A PERMANENT CHANGE. In this edition, you can cast upto 5 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, three, four or five entries. All your votes will carry the same weightage.
3. Your Voting Comment should start as follows:
I vote for - 1. BLOGATONIC NAME; his/her post = POST TITLE 2. BLOGATONIC NAME; his/her post = POST TITLE 3. BLOGATONIC NAME; his/her post = POST TITLE4. BLOGATONIC NAME; his/her post = POST TITLE5. BLOGATONIC NAME; his/her post = POST TITLE Code:
I participated - <a href="YOUR POST LINK">YOUR POST TITLE</a>
I vote for - 1.
NAME OF THE FIRST BLOGATONIC YOU VOTE FOR; his/her postlink = <a href="
HIS/HER POST LINK">
HIS/HER POST TITLE</a>
2.
NAME OF THE SECOND BLOGATONIC YOU VOTE FOR; his/her postlink = <a href="
HIS/HER POST TITLE">
HIS/HER POST TITLE</a>
3.
NAME OF THE THIRD BLOGATONIC YOU VOTE FOR; his/her postlink = <a href="
HIS/HER POST LINK">
HIS/HER POST TITLE</a>
4.
NAME OF THE FOURTH BLOGATONIC YOU VOTE FOR; his/her postlink = <a href="
HIS/HER POST LINK">
HIS/HER POST TITLE</a>
5.
NAME OF THE FIFTH BLOGATONIC YOU VOTE FOR; his/her postlink = <a href="
HIS/HER POST LINK">
HIS/HER POST TITLE</a>
There is some specific logic behind the above code. So please fill the parameters highlighted in red as mentioned in the code only.
Remove the extra code in case you are voting for less than five entries.
3. 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.
4. Post your vote in the comments section of this post.
5. 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 or four or five 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 23:59AM (IST) on SUNDAY, September 9, 2012.
- 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 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??? Then you are eligible to be included into the List of Veteran Blog-a-Tonics. Just drop a mail to "marshal@blogaton.in" and "pendownmythought@gmail.com" with the links to all your posts (or simply label all your BAT entries and send Marshal that single link).
