# AWW Framework — Temp Check Post-Mortem

The [Temp Check](https://snapshot.org/#/s:aavedao.eth/proposal/0x46d78018f1204e2337ee77edc13753869cc90163fe46a23698f67f4a98365acc) passed 622K YAE to 497K NAY. Here’s what the vote actually showed.

## The vote without Labs

Remove three Labs-linked addresses from the YAE side:

- Stani’s 111K cluster
- Areta’s 75K (delegated entirely by Stani)
- 47K wallet matching Emilio’s on-chain profile

and the result flips: 387K YAE to 497K NAY. The community rejected the proposal. Labs overrode it on their own $51M budget request.

## The largest independent YAE voter agrees with us

luggis.eth (123K VP) voted YAE on the general direction but conditioned his support on:

- No lock-in with Labs. All IP, repositories, domains, and operational assets transferred to the DAO.

- If Labs doesn’t deliver, the DAO needs to be able to move on.

- 100% revenue needs guardrails, otherwise it’s too elastic.

- Phased capital deployment with detailed budget breakdown.

These are our [four conditions](https://governance.aave.com/t/temp-check-aave-will-win-framework/24055/12) restated by someone who voted the other way. The direction has support. The terms don’t.

## Restricted replies

Stani [announced the result on X](https://x.com/StaniKulechov/status/2027898881594327159) with replies restricted to accounts he follows. The founder of a decentralized protocol declared victory on a contested governance vote and disabled public comment.

## ACI won’t participate in the ARFC stage

We raised the issues. We published the [accountability report](https://governance.aave.com/t/aave-labs-86-million-23-of-the-token-supply-and-this-is-their-track-record/24159) and outlined [four conditions](https://governance.aave.com/t/temp-check-aave-will-win-framework/24055/104). None were addressed. The Temp Check passed on the back of the requester’s own votes. The dice are loaded.

Continuing to negotiate inside a process where the outcome is predetermined does one thing: **it gives that process legitimacy it hasn’t earned. We won’t do that.**

The data is on the record. The four conditions still stand. If Labs wants to address them, they know where to find them. We’re done asking.
