@Nos, I can't think of a better way to describe your vote on Mhs as anything other than stagnant. Your vote on him was placed on page 14 without explanation.
You later state that his, "sarcastic" comment really pinged you, but after going back and forth you say you,
but I know now that you genuinely believe you were being obviously sarcastic.
You vote for Mhs before Mhs had voted for Jake. So clearly your early vote on MHS had nothing to do with that. You said your vote remains b/c Mhs was "gunning for low-hanging fruit". Upon Mhs unvoting Jake, you said you would move it once someone pings you. So, 28 pages later, nothing pinged you?
Until I asked you that is.

but I know
that you genuinely believe you were being obviously sarcastic.
NOW

now
, thank you.
Etymology:
Middle English, from Old English nū; akin to Old High German nū now, Latin nunc, Greek nyn
First Known Use: before 12th century
I don't get the misunderstanding here. I said I voted at the beginning for his sarcastic comment, talked about something else, he asked me what the initial vote was for, I told him. How people suddenly misconstrued this into something else is a mystery to me.

Did I say the initial vote on mhs was because of the gunning for low hanging fruit? No. But you already know that, because you literally say it in the next sentence, so why even mention it? 28 pages later, Lowell hadn't pinged me enough to warrant a vote, and I noted the implication issue with mhs upon a re-read.
3) It is completely normal for me to not explain things that ping me as soon as they do. NY192, the game where RC referenced I was one of the top townies; This is because I nailed scum to the wall D1, about 500 pages after I put my vote down. So the whole 'you didn't explain x until I asked' argument that was bound to come up sooner or later, is NAI.
