Sure mate, there’s now way what you did could come across as an obvious attempt to facilitate building a winning coalition in ZCAP for when the community votes whether to plug your organisation directly to the dev fund, or not.
I mean, is not like the 17 people you nominated, if added, would represent 10% of the ZCAP votes.
It’s just hard for me to grasp what kind of behaviours are ethical and which aren’t, so totally my bad, clearly.
