Do unresolved deferential votes need to be reported at all? They’re identical to people not voting. They don’t even count as votes for the “more than half of all votes” that need to be “for” when a proposal times out.

Oh, please.  As long as it’s clear, it’s fine.  Case-by-case judgment of the admin suffices.

per Hix.

“Report the final tally of votes” is fine. If an admin starts posting deliberately unclear voting tallies, we can deal with it.

Oops   clicked the wrong button

Per hix. If it is clear, it doesn’t matter.

Wak: You didn’t actually click the voting icon…

As I said before, show me a case where in anything RL things that were voted down were stated by the lower for votes first.

Well, I my church we always do the For, then the against, then the abstentions, so that is an example in RL, but Baptist business meetings have never been the epitome of proper parliamentary procedure.

Also, people will get angry if you start dragging religion into BlogNomic. In any way.

lol .
