The thing with the voting for me is that 40 votes a day is a lot if you're not using bots, which I don't. I wouldn't have time to break my votes down to fractions to get more of them. It would be really frustrating if I still could only manage 40 or fewer votes a day, but then I had all this SP that was never used to influence because my votes were limited to a set dollar amount. I think what I would do, if that kind of limitation was worked into the code, is I'd just start a new account (once additional SP no longer added to the monetary value of my upvote), dump more SP into that second account, then program a bot to have that account upvote exactly everything my original account upvoted. Then I'd do that with a third account, and so forth. In the end, after much hassle, the influence would be the same. So I truly hope it doesn't come to that. Instead, it's good to try to persuade the whales to make a point to voluntarily spread their votes around in whatever way seems right to them, but not force them to do it a particular way. Those who feel strongly enough about it will figure out a workaround. Once again, great article, and looking forward to more.
