(At this stage Mastina gives up on providing a fictional chronology to match the game example above.)

[/spoiler][/area]

• An example of votecount numbering would be: [b][u]Twenty-fifth Votecount[/u]:[/b] [i](Third Votecount D2)[/i]
• Mastina colors the lead wagon red when it reaches approximately 75% of the way to the lynch threshold.
• Mastina will stop using the Yabbaguy image gifs when the playerlist drops such that the lynch threshold is 3 (or sometimes 4).
  • Similarly, Mastina will stop coloring the lead wagon red except upon the lynch when the lynch threshold is reduce to that number.
• Mastina will italicize the lead wagon when a lynch has been achieved.
  • Mastina will change tense when a lynch has been reached: "At deadline, playername would be lynched" becomes "Playername has been lynched", "With X alive, it takes Y to lynch" becomes "With X alive, it took Y to lynch", and "Deadline is date" becomes "Deadline was date".
• The section about deadline hitting with a player lynched only applies in games featuring Plurality lynches. It is otherwise absent.
• Mastina's moderator color is black, thus the use of black.
• An example of the deadline is given: Day 2's deadline is Monday, February 20th, @ 3:30 PM PST--[countdown]2017-02-20 15:30:00 -8.00[/countdown].
• If there are no changes from the last votecount, Mastina will add in "(none)" to the end of the spoiler= tag.
• Mastina uses the "sup" tag to indicate a wagon is larger than it was before (or became larger and then shrank to be the same size it was before). She uses the "sub" tag to indicate a wagon is smaller than it was before (or became smaller and then grew back to be the same size it was before). If there are multiple changes, she will go with the greatest, e.g. +2/-1 will have a sup tag, +1/-2 will have a sub tag.
• In the changes section, Mastina will list wagons in the order they formed, rather than the largest wagon on top...between votecounts. After each votecount, she resets this, placing the top wagon on the top and the smallest wagon on the bottom.
  • In other words, If in Votecount 2, Player 1 was the lead wagon, yet Player 2 gained more votes than Player 1, then in Votecount 3, in the Changes section, Player 1 would still be above Player 2. However, Player 2 would then move on top for Votecount 4. This is to best demonstrate the nature of changes between given votecounts.
• In the changes section, if a wagon is entirely new, rather than bold just the playername(s) of the new player(s) voting, she will bold the entire wagon, to best demonstrate the prior nonexistence of the wagon.
• Mastina does not record multiple changes of votes in the same post, with the obvious exception of unvoting their current vote and voting a separate player they previously were not voting at the very end. She also does not record a revote: voting a person the slot is already voting.
• An example of the last votecount is given: Last votecount was [post=918]post 918, page 37[/post].
• Mastina spells out "Day X". "Day Two", "Day Three", "Day Four", etc. The exception is voting chronology, which she uses numbers on: Day 1, Day 2, etc.
• Mastina differentiates between bolded votes/unvotes and vote tags/unvote tags. In Player Vote History, she uses "--" marks for bold, and "==" marks for tags. In Voting Chronology, she uses an uppercase U/V for vote tags, and a lowercase u/v for bold.
• Mastina marks unvotes differently. For Player Vote History, She will use one less "-"/"=" mark for a naked unvote, one extra ">" for a named unvote, and one extra "-"/"=" sign for an unvote WITH a revote. I.e., Player1--->>Player2 would represent an unvote:player1, vote:player2 using bold.
  • In Voting Chronology, Mastina will mark naked unvotes in parenthesis at size=80 (tags) or size=75 (bold).
• In Player Vote History, Players who have BEEN Voted, and Voting Chronology, post=numbers represents the number of the post where the vote/unvote was cast. For instance, if Player A voted Player B in post 133, the numbers would be post=133.
• An example of voting chronology is given: On Mon, Jan 01/30/17 @ 04:48p, [b]Playername[/b] Voted [i]Other Player[/i] in post [post]827[/post].
