Deal!

Let it be recorded, @novaatebatman. :) Deal.

Let it be recorded... @xtetrahedron has given you two nice upvotes...
And as far as I've noticed... You haven't upvoted anyone.
And really, that is fine. You are free to do that...
Just kinda weird when you are getting lots of free stuff.

And I thought maybe it was because your voting power was really low... But thats not it. You are at 99%.

Wow. You're just going to arbitrarily start crap with me, because you've taken it upon yourself to be the Steemit etiquette police? Dude, I just want to play this game in peace. This post is the most interacting I've done with my fellow players since the game started. I can't believe you're going to criticize me for who I do and don't upvote. If you must know, I try to keep my upvotes strictly to the game post itself on Steempocalypse, because upvotes can move posts around, and I don't want to do something that puts them all in a confusing order.

Besides that, if it's any of your business (which it isn't), I didn't notice the upvotes at all, and I have no idea what my voting power is, either. I haven't checked it in a long time. These just aren't things I pay much attention to, unless it's on an original post I've made. I also make it a point to upvote any comment someone puts on one of my original posts. It's too much jumping around to tell who is upvoting my comments on other people's posts. I really just didn't notice.

I'm not technically getting free things, either. I'm making trades. I could have kept all the tablets to myself and not traded with anyone, but I didn't. I chose to give some people a chance this round by trading.

However, I will dole out some upvotes, as you seem bothered by it. I'm just playing the game. The upvote thing isn't really a factor for me, except I do always give @papa-pepper a 100% upvote on each new Steempocalypse post. I even continued doing this after I was eliminated last season....just so you know.

Yeah, I see that. You've only been voting about once a day...

Sorta throwing away 9 votes that you could give to anyone.
By voting more it doesn't take anything away from your account or anything.....you lose nothing, but helps others out.

I just found it odd. You were more than happy to make trades that cost you nothing (you give up nothing in this trade. ) ......AND no one will go without water tablets if they are willing to giveup something. Either I, or one of the 2-3 other players will make the trade.

Anyway, I only noticed because no one you traded with was getting an upvote...even after they upvoted you.

Maybe it would be nice IF YOU DID THINK ABOUT AND NOTICE these things. But you certainly don't have to. It is a free system.

It is also very transparent... everything gets recorded on the blockchain.

So I was just pointing out something I noticed.

Good luck and happy steeming!!

Yes, I'm aware everything gets recorded on the blockchain. It's one of the first things I learned about when I joined Steemit a year ago. I don't know how to look up anything on the blockchain, nor am I interested in doing so. Looking up what other people are doing isn't why I'm here.

I also don't spend all of my time on here. As a freelance writer, I'm mostly writing for clients, or working on my novels, both writing and marketing. When I DO have some spare time, I put an article up here, and, as I said, I upvote EVERYONE who comments on it. If I have a LOT of free time, I browse the "New" section, and upvote people there who write things that interest me.

And, I periodically go through my feed of the people I follow and upvote them all, just for support, because I like to. I haven't done it in a week or two, but I do it whenever I have the chance. I'm not being stingy with my upvotes by any means. I just don't spend as much time here as others do.

Not sure why you are now editing your comment...boy I must have really pressed a raw button.
"Wow. You're just going to arbitrarily start crap with me... for who I do and don't upvote. " ALL ADDED AFTER THE FACT.

And it is all sadly funny. For someone that only upvotes original posts...DID NOT UPVOTE the post she is using to Get Free stuff. Has an amazing amount of time to go back and edit her posts. After I mention not voting: goes and gives 20-30 people (from her feed or whatever) 25% upvotes, but still didn't upvote the other players that generously traded with you!

Why did you edit your post? Apparently have more free time than you admit. I have free time, but even I am sad that I brought this up because I honestly first just figured you were low on voting power. Anyway, TRUCE. You win!! Go and do anything you please. I am truly sorry to have brought it up.
