that proves that it's the most suggested not the most recent that takes precedent. In the event that there is a tie between two tags, it goes to the most recently suggested of the two.

This is the case.

I know. I proved it using science.

My head hurts from all this science. ... So wait a sec: two votes went in for test1. tehstone tried test3 (one vote) and failed, but the secret sauce remembered tehstone's attempt, so when bfx tried test3 - it said -- ahh, a new tag with two votes. So now presumably, if someone tried to tag it #test2nyehnyeh or whatever... that should be the newest at 2, but either #test1 or #test3 will supercede it?

But just to make sure no one adds coyote juice to the secret sauce, no one gets more than one chance.

Ahh science (my head hurts).

Thank you for testing this, it works in the best possible way.

I tried to tag it something else and it stayed as test3

Try and tag it #test2nyehnyeh or #test1 again. Let's keep trying till we break it. (no, just kidding)

Don't be afraid to break it, that's the only way to find bugs so they can be fixed. Do you remember the one character account bug that was discovered a few days ago? If nobody had tested that, today your account would be at risk of being hijacked by a malicious user.
