The Daily Qurator #259
Welcome to the 259th Daily Edition of the Daily Qurator. Below you will find some awesome members of @qurator that worked hard to post some good quality content for all you awesome Steemians to enjoy!
The @qurator project was created to help give Steemians some extra exposure and awesome upvotes currently worth around $0.04 - $7.13!
Note: some of you have been curated twice since the start of the daily qurator and some have been curated only once. As the Daily Qurator is gaining fame with every passing day, many new steemians are asking/will ask to join us. So, expect to see posts from new users for now. When the opportunity arises, posts from older users will be curated once again

Traveling Tales- Running For My Life In Chiang Mai
Travel to me is the epitome of freedom. I traveled Thailand 7 years ago for 6 months and Mexico for 2 weeks last year. I have also been on shorter trips, to numerous locations around the world scuba diving but nothing compares to the feeling of setting off with a backpack and seeing where the wind will blow you. I traveled like this in Thailand with the loosest of plans, I had to be in Koh Phi Phi at a certain time to do some scuba training but apart from that it was open
Come along for an adventure with @raj808 today! Oh yes... he did eat, as he says, “some insanely hot curry”. See how he reacted to this! And wait until you see what happens to him after he played a game of pool.

What Would You Do Without Your Sight?
I for one, could not imagine what it would be like to lose my vision. Of all my senses, that is the one I rely on the most. Even more than my hearing, which I use frequently as well. No more sunsets, no more smiles on my kids' faces, no more wicked awesome graphics to be seen, no more sexy women's bodies...not sure I could handle that last one
Have you ever considered how your life would be effected if you lost one of your senses? @enginewitty delves into this if he were to lose his sight. The things he would miss. The moment and memories he'd never get to see again. Stop over and share your thoughts.

New Chicks On The Homestead!
Today on Homestead Homebodies we'd like to introduce you to our new chicks! Our previous flock of 32 birds had dwindled down to just eighteen. Most died of old age and the remainder were not laying many eggs
Oh what a glorious day! @brimax has added quite a few mouths to feed on his homestead; and it's a great feeling. Head over to check out this video and see how these fuzzy little guys added joy to the Homebodies' Homestead.

After The Rain
I had some perfect plans for today, but it was raining almost whole day long. It stopped just a while ago, and as it was already late afternoon, I thought, what's the point of going out now and taking some photos. Oh, how wrong I was?!
Sometimes the best laid plans for a day get tossed out the window. When the rain started, see how @ana-maria changed her plans and made the best of it with a walk, and some pictures, after the stopped.
NEWS
We will be sending out some comments with the Tier 0 upvote. We don't think many of the members are aware that it is really easy to move up to a higher tier by showing Qurator some support. Let's hope some of the older members can move up in tiers and we can make the whole community a bit stronger. =)
This is by far on of the easiest ways to earn a little extra on your posts. READ the post mentioned in the comment. We are not trying to spam our T0 members, we are trying to help and reward you more. If you need help then you can always come visit us on Discord. =)
Note: You can opt out of the comment by replying stop. Keep in mind if you did not read the post linked in the comment you are losing out BIG TIME! Why get a $0.03 if you can easily get a $0.12 or higher upvote. Take part in the community, you won't regret it. =)
Tier Updates Finalized
Tier updates are out and finalized. You can check out the post HERE.
The short version is that Tier 1 and Tier 2 requirements have changed a bit. Please review them.
A separate account has been created and 30 000 SP has been delegated to it. @qurator-tier-1-2 will be upvoting Tier 1 and Tier 2 members.
A large amount of SP was undelegated from @qurator to accommodate for the new account, BUT the upvote weights have been adjust so they should balance out. Just have to see how the Voting Power holds up with the big change.

Steemauto Curation Trail

We suggest not following the trail with 100%, steemauto has 2 ways of following a trail, static or scaled. We suggest using SCALED instead of static since static votes can add up quickly and drain VP very fast. We suggest using scaled and then maybe around 25%.
Steemauto can show us who is currently on the trail and at what percentage. Looking forward to see more Qurites joining the trail in the near future! We also reward the team players and there might be a nice surprize for a lucky trailer. =P

We had some node issues lastweekend so the upvotes are quite delayed. We are working on it and upvotes should be going out. Sadly not something we can fix if the nodes act up. Might up the upvote weight a bit in the next tier update to make up for any losses.
