observational data points aren't a great measure, In any average within a large set of data, there's always a chance to see extreme highs and extreme lows. Unless you have something more than based on perception or observation, you're making a large assumption that it's actually occurring.

Not writing this to attack you so please don't take it personal. Just sharing my thoughts.

I agree with you. And in attempt to respond with data, i summed, averaged and weighted averaged votes of first 4 days of each month till october but did not find any change in Nov or Dec. I still think my observation has some merit though, i don't know how to verify it.
i respect that. Definitely noteworthy enough to start digging and asking questions like what you're doing. I'd say keep it up (with also keeping our conversation in mind as well)!
