--Fea (+1)

which would leave Fea unvoted for, or would it be

--Fea

which thereby allows me the retraction of that one vote, but still leaves Fea with one vote against?

And if I have already voted

++Fea

and I wanted to seal her dark and twisted fate with one of my spare votes, would I merely add

++(1)

or would I need to add

++Fea (+1)

or would doing the latter be accidentally adding two votes to my first vote?

When I first came up with the idea I debated quite a bit about whether or not to limit bonus votes to one target. In the end I decided it would open up more possibilities and be more unique to allow for someone to vote for two targets.

So, you do indeed have to retract your full vote- otherwise you will leave your bonus votes on your original target.

++Phantom (4)

And then later...

--Phantom

You only retracted your daily vote. Your four bonus votes are still on Phantom. And guess what? There's no way to get them off now, because you used your retraction. Oops.

You can weaken or strengthen your vote by adding or subtracting bonus votes as well, but adding or subtracting bonus votes counts as your retraction for the day. You can't go changing your vote every couple seconds. Things would be just a little too crazy. I need to be able to count these things up without it taking all night.

So, if you gave three bonus votes to Phantom, and you wish to tack on two more, you can just do this-

++ (2)

Now, if you have time, it would be courteous to put a note below it so that your fellow players recall who you voted for. Something like this-

Any other questions?

Are there silver platters in this game, and may I be scandalous?

You need permission to act like that now?


Well, crap. I'm in trouble.



So if I wanna retract all my votes I'd go like this

--Phantom (X)

where my vote is actually properly formatted and X is the number of extra votes. Correct?

My moral compass, thanks to the strict behavioral expectations you had for me, darling, now points due... south...

This is an improvement, I should possibly specify, due to the fact that it had, priorly, pointed just about everywhere.

Or perhaps I ought just to say that sometimes adopting a submissive demeanor and asking explicit permission to behave a certain way according to the --

I'll just stop, shall I?
