How we count
  • One hand per account, per app. If you comment more than once, your latest keyword comment is the one that counts.
  • A comment has to name exactly one keyword (FIX or PAY). Comments naming both, or neither, are ignored. Replies are ignored.
  • Each app is counted on its own, then the four are added together.
  • We can't tell if the same person votes on two different apps, so each app's account counts once there.

Questions from the counter

Q1Is Ray’s Diner a real place?

No. The diner, Ray and Marisol are made up. The money is worked out so it adds up, and when a real-world rule matters (like how long cold food can sit out), the episode page shows it in The Fine Print, with a link to where it comes from.

Q2Where do I put my hand up?

In the comments of the episode, on TikTok, Instagram, Facebook or YouTube. Type the keyword for your choice. For Day 1 that’s FIX or PAY. Change your mind and comment again: the newest one is the one we count.

Q3Do all four apps count?

Every one. The Ballot adds them together and shows how each app is leaning, side by side.

Q4What decides the story?

Whichever choice has the most hands across all four apps combined. That choice is what happens in the next episode.

Q5When does the ballot close?

Before the next episode goes up. Follow @MajorityRunsIt on your app so you catch the next call.

Q6Is The Diner the only show?

It’s the first. More shows in the same style are coming to the same accounts, and every ballot will live on this site.
