You black-highlighted a lot of activity. Some was not relevant to anything except changing server configurations (update witness). Others were most likely related to my perceived involvement in the whatever conspiracy you are cooking up here (val-a votes).

My personal unvotes of his list were because of a philosophical problem I have with the team's voting with ninjamined vests (which Val did with his votes) and had nothing to do with my implicit or explicit support of any witnesses. And my unvote by blocktrades was related to his philosophical difference that the team should vote how they wish with ninjamined coins and that he felt as strongly about his position as I do about mine.

My last action was to upvote bhuz because I felt like if I was out of the full time list, I'd put in bhuz because I think he is a more involved witness than the person I replaced with that vote (au1nethyb1). But it could just be the communication channels that I watch.

Believe it or not, now that I am out of the full time witness list, I have much more control over it and will tune it as I see fit. To some extent, expect my votes to have some long term policy implications. I am not a little fish.
