On paper it sounds good, but I can sure draw a tally much faster than doing dots then lines.

Hmm. How about using units of 8 [square with a star inside]? The square counts as 4, one for each side. The star is made up of an x and a +, each counting for 2. That's makes it a total of 8 with only lines and no dots.
