This is as good a place as any to discuss and share opinions/strategies with the folks who have a great grasp of the numbers. Looks like you have them worked out fairly well and are part of the crowd communicating with each other to exchange bot fact and speculation.
I think now it falls to deciding strategy. Powering down is one of them but I can tell you are there only as a last resort. Witness voting should be what we are focusing upon like you as it is those witnesses who will make or break the vote. Is there a collection of those witnesses (I hear the vast majority) who are in favour of the change in split? If all the active engaged steemians pull their vote for the ones supporting the change in payouts, would that make a difference?
Aside from those 2, those of us staying should be talking about how to maintain our stake and grow it with different tactics if it goes through.
Will the barking dogs be heard or will the mailman just deliver the package (hf) anyhow?

I did a post a week ago about which witnesses had declared for or against the fork:

People need to vote for those who will stop the fork and unvote those who would put it through.
Oh wonderful! Let me check that out. Thanks!

honestly - most likely not. the witness votes that we have are stake-based.
so yep - once again, the power to put people in the top 20 is not really in our hands. its in the hands of people who hold all the money, power, voice.
i would so love to say that the barking dogs might be heard. that's kinda what this post was. a last appeal? a call to say - can we take this off the proposal and at least talk about it some more??
there is always hope. right?
If it is to be, it is up to me (us.). Alternatively, Hope is not much of a strategy.

can't really force them. and they know that.
