Welcome to the Battle Credits Thread, formerly known as the Vote Tracker.
In order to get your vote turned into a Battle Credit, it must meet the following criteria:
1. Be a GOOD vote (see below for what constitutes a good vote)
2. You must post in here with a LINK to your vote. (click the globe looking button at the top of the reply box)
Every completed battle = 1 credit used, so make sure you have enough votes/credits before you enter multiple battles.
In addition to this, we will be implementing a FLAKER TRACKER. Please see the FRS RULES thread for how that works.
**cut and pasted from the
Beginner's Guide/FAQ:
GOOD VOTING- this is where u break things down very well. This should be done ALWAYS. People usually comment on the criteria for the given vote for both participants and frequently include highlights of the battle followed by why they chose a given person over the other (ex. slightly better flow, harder punches, etc). This doesn't have to be long but give some good reasons (you wouldn't want a shitty vote on ur battle would ya?)
BAD VOTING- actual examples:
my vote goes to puertolumbian because he had more flow at the end of each bar?? is that what you call it?? anyway he used more commen sense and more of his rhymes were more in the dissing place, like he used the kind of diss better"
and
Xeno: i liked your disses.
JROC: i like the flow,
Vote : JROC(weldone)
tisk tisk, that's all I can say...

Mods will update this thread when they can, I will be slowly going through battles with last posts after 10/07 and count those votes and credits.
Current battles are NOT affected, but battles initiated after Monday 12-10-07 will be subject to the new rules.

How to Update (Mods Only)
1. Update everything at once or don't update at all.
2. Subtracting votes for battles works when both emcees have dropped and the battle is waiting for votes. Eg if Mode is battling Zodiak and Mode still hasn't dropped his last verse, then don't subtract votes from them yet (the mandatory one vote to battle that is). When Mode drops his last verse and all verses are completed, THEN take one vote off each from the battlers.
3. You need not count votes if the person has not posted that they voted in this thread.
4. Use
red to indicate when a user has 0 votes or a negative amount.
5. Finally, update the "AS OF" part at the top of the respective post when you are finished and leave your name in brackets.
