My rules are there because people love to push the limits.

If I don’t put the rules there they would say, “But you never told us we can’t do that.”

I have to have some rigid rules or the thread would be unmanageable.

Not only that, I need to be able to count between 300 and 400 votes in a timely fashion.

If I let folks go wild, it would take me hours to do.

As it is, I can now tabulate in about ten minutes.

My tabulation creates four graphs, and those are almost automatic.

Then I copy them and turn them into photo.png files.

I post them to my thread and I’m good to go.

Took me about 20 minutes tonight.

That’s not too bad.

If I didn’t have the rules, it would take me four times as long, or longer.

You’ve got me scared to put a “.” after “Vote XYZ”
