How do you mark your fifth tally?

Fairly self explanatory.

 

My wife and I were discussing this today so I was curious how other people do it.

Top right to bottom left... (I mean if you're gonna make this a poll I feel this distinction matters)

I’ve probably done it both ways but I voted top left to bottom right because that’s probably my first instinct

thought this was a soccer related poll and my first thought was when the hell do they ever score a 5th time in soccer?

Option 3: Don't care, don't think about it, either is acceptable.

 

I'm gonna guess this has a lot to do with whether you're left or right handed.

Just checked, this is me. FWIW I write left handed.

Top right to bottom left for me. Bottom right to top left seems really awkward to write, as you'd be pushing your pen directly away from your hand to make that dash.

 

I'm a righty. If I was lefty it seems like bottom right to top left would be more natural.

Hmmm, I'm a righty.

You guys are quite the tally-whackers.

who still marks tallies?

The only time I ever do is when I’m gambling with buddies and we are playing a dice or card game or like darts or pool at someone’s house to keep track of winners or something.
