What is the proper (or even popular) method of doing the fifth tally mark in the US, "Upper-Left to Lower-Right" or "Lower-Left to Upper-Right"? An organization I work with uses these for counting every day, and we find it interesting that most people do "Lower-Left to Upper-Right," but one or two people do the other way. Anyone know the "proper" methodology of tallying? <!-- Signature --><span style="background: #FFFFFF; border: dashed 1px #0000AA; padding: 2px;">[[User:Zebov|Zebov]] <sup>([[User talk:Zebov|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Zebov|contribs]])</sup></span> 14:07, 5 October 2006 (UTC) |

What is the proper (or even popular) method of doing the fifth tally mark in the US, "Upper-Left to Lower-Right" or "Lower-Left to Upper-Right"? An organization I work with uses these for counting every day, and we find it interesting that most people do "Lower-Left to Upper-Right," but one or two people do the other way. Anyone know the "proper" methodology of tallying? Zebov (talk|contribs) 14:07, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
