I should probably re-phrase the rules here.. Since it looks like some users were making slight mistakes:

Step 1: You can nominate an article

Step 2: You can oppose or support other users articles up to 3 times (4 if you didn't nominate an article yourself)

Step 3: You can leave comments by adding

What to know -- each user can nominate up to 4 articles, but when you support or oppose other users articles, it lowers that number. You must not support your own articles either. If you nominated Darwin Watterson for example, you can't add "I support this", it's cheating. Your nomination "is" a vote.

So in total, yeah, each user has 4 votes. So for example, I can nominate 4 articles, but then I wouldn't be able to support or oppose any -- all my votes will be used up. Each user has 4 votes (again, as stated), they can use those 4 votes as either supports, opposes, or nominations. It's always best to see which article gets nominated next rather than just using up all your votes in one reply.

The article that has the most "Support" by the end of the month is the winner.

Hope this covered any confusion on it!
