I am pleased to announce that by DIS activity (the most favorable
metric) we have had the highest monthly activity (479 KB) since August
2013 (585 KB). No doubt this metric is flawed for a bunch of reasons,
and the month isn't over yet, but still, keep up the good work (i.e.
please everyone don't go inactive again).

And we both registered (or almost registered) in a 48 hour period that has
coincided with new agoran activity - i'm blaming us for the new activity -

 That said, how am I supposed to regain VP?

I believe that this is a bug in the most recent equity judgement against
the Vote Market.

I would recommend initiating a new equity case, because inability to
regain VP is certainly not envisioned by the contract. I'd do it myself,
but I don't have standing to bring an equity case against the contract
in question.
