I think I'm going to start upvoting myself at 0 minutes unless someone wants to curate my comments.

I am more convinced that I lost Steem doing delegations. I think 1 STU is only worth about .7 Steem.

Keep commenting on my articles and your comments will be upvoted. As you know, I am a proponent that comments need to be rewarded in order to improve the interaction in this community.

I think you should at least partially self upvote your comments or sign up for @dustsweeper.

Hi
I agree with you about rewarding comments.
I think it improves interaction.

Hi,
What will be the effect of your upvoting yourself at 0 minutes to people with lower SP voting after you?

Not much but it will be easier to do. lol I might get more of the curation but not 100% sure.

What are STU and how do you profit from them?

STU = Steem Token Units which is what are payments are in.

Thanks for the link, it’s a great graphic to explain both the STU tokens and the relationship between Steem and SBD. I have not heard this term STU before, but it’s a great concept name.
Thanks

You're welcome. You don't use @dustsweeper?

I think you are making an excellent choice on your vote timing plan. You will see a nice % change.

I didn’t know upvoting on your own posts had an effect on your rewards. So does that increase my author reward in proportion to my SP compared to everyone else who votes on my post?

From what I can tell I guess you should immediately upvote all your own posts and comments at 100% for maximum earnings.

Okay. I think it increases my author reward percentage because I am curating early and gives me the early bird curators rewards.

If you are on discord I can explain it out a bit more through. Personally, I would suggest not self-voting comments because it makes people pissy and then they don't want to upvote you. Just my 2 cents though from what I have seen and heard over my short time here. Like I said hit me up on dixcord and I would be happy to run through it with you.

Okay, thanks, same “nome de guere” 😊 on Discord ?

if it gives you a hard time finding me.

Okay, I will send you a friend request. I am Mufasa #1158 and (I am crazy about Disney and apparently not alone (#1158) in thinking that’s a cool discord name, I ‘m afraid) still a kid at heart and trying not take life to seriously 😊.

Hopefully I can remember. lol

That sucks. What's your average rate on your delegations?

It's inching down to 24%. Right now I would guess it's at 25 or 26% but it could be as high as 29%. Eventually I might try and get it down to 20%.

Do you think that in a bull run the average % will go up (I mean globally, not just you)?

Yeah. I think higher SBD will help things out and higher SBD usually happens when Steem goes up. I'm not 100% sure though.

Hmm. I see you did not renew one of my delegations. But if you are losing money that would make sense. Also, it's a difficult time. All cryptos seems to be dumping all the time.

Yeah one of the 4? was at a pretty bad rate for me. I think I was losing for sure on that one. The other ones are iffy. I can probably refinance the expiring one when it expires or you can have a little bit of vote power back. lol

You would be crazy not to self vote immediately with all that steem power.

That's cool .... I have some post with lots of comments. I wonder what ones top the list .....

I just hit a personal best with 230 + in comments on my last weeks Steem Battle Giveaway. I just released this weeks game with some added prizes so hopefully I can surpass 200 + comments again.

That would be hard to keep track of. I'd be cool with breaking 100 on a blog post but I dunno if I even want much more than that. You keep very busy on here. I could maybe handle doing one contest a week. lol

It does get tiresome but I want to grow as fast as possible. I started ending some of my promotions / contest before payout so I don't have to keep track of too many at once. I am still only averaging a gain of less then 1 Steem Power a day. Its hard to grow on this site and dolphin + votes are hard to come by so getting as many redfish / minnow votes as possible looks like the way to go. I did manage to get 2 or 3 dolphin + votes in the last few weeks.

  • I likely slow down with the competitions soon

Impressive number of comments!

Thanks ... the Battle-Steem game ended up reaching 263 comments and this weeks edition has already hit 226 with a day and a half to go before the new game is released .. I predict we hit 250 at least.

I don't curate your comments on my posts because you do 😊

I curate your blog posts and I think some of your comments. I guess maybe I will start getting cheaper. lol At least someone upvotes my stellar comments.

Yeah, well that's what happens when you self up vote yourself twelve cents and give everyone else a penny. lol. Some may actually just be giving you that penny back or a percentage of it...now you surely have to admit splitting up a penny is pretty bad, it's bad enough this site does it.

Don't worry. In a few months I might not even be able to give myself a penny. :(

Have you considered switching up strategies ? Its better to take a small loss then to keep going if it isn't profitable. My growth is slow but it has been speeding up.

I have noticed the 1 % upvotes on some post you do and I think this is hurting your curation rewards. Its kind of a catch 22 as your SP is low so voting with low percent is helping you recover but at the same time those small percentage votes is likely costing you Curation rewards from that post and possibly costing you upvotes from the post author.

I've been making strategy adjustments every day.

You are such a cheapskate...lol. You: 9 Me: 0. Since you push dust keepers so hard you could set your little counter to give a dust vote and then dust keepers would swoop in and save the day.

Feel free to lose some money with delegations and we can trade votes equally. lol

Funny, funny....I think I will play it safe and just leave you comments for your self up voting pleasure when you reply. Even though it's low it has to be a pretty good rate of return for you.
