Works for panties
Butt line ... Oops! I mean, bottom line, I think we can all agree that if a comment doesn't contain the word "Vote" ... it shouldn't be counted as a vote. Because a lot of times people will come in here and show their admiration, affection, love, lust, Wankometer Factor Level, Droolometer Factor Level, approval of images, etc. big time ... but, the word "vote" will NOT be in the comment. So, at that instant it should be assumed that while they're giving the particular babe in question and her images Two Thumbs Up, they haven't necessarily decided to VOTE for THAT particular OCSM.
That won't necessarily solve the problem, since they can still prattle on before getting to their vote. And we don't always type the ladies' full names so they autolink to show up better, which can also make it hard to spot a vote. The thing to do would be to have it so that your vote has to be in the top line and with the girl's full name so it autolinks, so that way Jitna can find it easily. Though, as part of typing this, I have had the thought that instead of a year-long thread, it could be weekly threads with a poll. Then no one has to count or try to discern votes from novels.
However, I think this should probably wait until the OCSM of the Week 2015 convention in December to pound out new guidelines like that. Though, if Jitna doesn't link back to the rules very often to let newbies know or remind the rest of us, it's not gonna do much good after the first few days.
