Yes I am the #12 Valve right now, valves change places depending on how much votes they get and how much SP those votes control. Being a witness is not as easy as it sounds, there is a lot of updating and maintenance involved, it was much harder in the early days, because of the frequent updates and fixes, much better now because there is much less to fix in terms of bugs, and more tweaking of variables. I remember in the early days witnesses having to update 3 times in one day. I hope those days do not come back :D

Well you have been very helpful to me, I will vote for you. Thank you :)

Thanks, do not listen to those who say your vote does not count, every vote counts, it's true some more than others, but the way the system is designed, authors and active users are supposed to have bigger and bigger share of the decision making by building up their SP. This will take long, but with every SP someone gains their vote influence goes up by 1 SP, and like pfunk said if you add all that together with the others, it can add to a lot.

I have given you one of my votes, I hope it helps and thank you :)
