Tag-o-War Display Features and Announcing a Winner

As time elapses a post count will be populated in the top banner underneath your connected hashtags. The post counts are also reflected as a percentage of total posts, which is visualized by a dynamic width adjustment to the colored banners:

Whenever you’re ready to announce a winner return to the TINT Editor and enter the Content or Personalize sections for the TINT. Click "ANNOUNCE THE WINNER" and a brief animation will occur displaying the winner on the TINT:

After the animation is displayed the Tag-O-War is displayed again, with a winner and runner-up appearing in the top banner:

If you want to restart the Tag-o-War or set up a different battle on your TINT you can do so at any time after announcing a winner by selecting "RESET THE BATTLE":

Additional Notes:

Although posts already appear in the TINT Editor when you first set up Tag-o-War, on the display version of the TINT, posts will not start appearing until after you’ve selected "START THE BATTLE". New posts will populate in accordance with your update times, which vary from plan to plan. For best results use Tag-o-War with the Event Plan or InsTINT Updates.
