I was referring to the percentages as recorded in the most recent Snapshot. I cannot rule out errors in the UI - or even that your vote was given greater weight than it should have. Someone else would have to be the judge of that. I can only state what I see, and what everyone else can verify for themselves.
2.5% of the total vote is huge. I think you are understating the weight of this - intentionally or unintentionally.
You say that Giveth affiliated voters cannot unilaterally pass a proposal, but the fact of the matter is that 3% is all it takes for a campaign to be included in the upcoming season.
Assuming that the Snapshot is correct with regards to Griff being able to vote with a weight of 2.425%, then, yes, there is a very real possibility that Giveth affiliated voters could indeed pass on the Giveth campaign unilaterally - or with just a minimum of support from a few other DAO members.
Anyone who cares can go check out how you guys voted in the Season 5 campaign selection vote (hint: 100% Giveth).
Do you disagree that there is a very clear rule against insider participation in the overall Season 6 proposal that was approved by 99.6% of the Superfluid DAO less than a week ago?
To recap, the Season 6 rule states:
“Insider Participation: To ensure fair and effective use of Ecosystem Campaigns, project and campaign leads are expected not to participate in their own campaigns in ways that generate points or rewards. This includes creating or using accounts, contracts, or donation flows under their control to route activity back to themselves for the purpose of earning campaign rewards. Campaign incentives should be directed toward genuine external users and ecosystem activity.
By submitting a proposal or participating as a campaign lead, project and campaign leads are deemed to confirm that they are not directly or indirectly claiming points or rewards for their own benefit."
You could have participated in the debate around the clarification of this rule when it took place, but you did not. Now is not the time to debate whether the rule should be there or not (in season 6).
As can be seen on Snapshot, you and Griff both voted in favour of the Season 6 guidelines.
And now you are submitting a S6 proposal which - according to the rules that just about every active voter in the DAO has signed and approved - is seen as a confirmation of your commitment to not claim points or rewards for yourself.
Except, you are stating in your proposal that you intend to do just that.
That is simply not respectful to the Superfluid voters who have voted on the rule set, or to other team members and leads who follow the rules and abstain from taking rewards from their own campaigns.
As I see it, this should clearly make Giveth ineligible. - And I say that with a slightly bleeding heart, as someone who has been participating in your S5 campaign, happily donating to public goods and earning SUP rewards.
That’s fine. You can participate in all the other campaigns, but not your own. Those are the rules.
I’m sure noone wants to prevent you from going on donating to public goods projects. Or using Superfluid streams to do so. You just have to not accept any SUP rewards for participating in your own campaign.
This was the rule in S5 already - and yet you got so far 5.9% of the total Giveth campaign SUP, while Griff got 5.2%.
Do you want to get into how Griff also got 17% of the Giveth season 3 campaign? And 16.5% in season 2? And how all of that SUP is what now allows him and a few others to potentially pass on the Giveth S6 campaign, regardless of what the rest of the community might think of it - unless the core team decides to make Giveth ineligible on the grounds that you are clearly stating that you do not intend to follow the same rules as everyone else?
Don’t you care how this looks to others, or how it affects the Superfluid DAO if there is no neutral credibility because rules are not being enforced the same for everyone?
