RE: Silverbird Drawing ~ My "Learn To Draw With Friends" Contest Entry
Yup. Discord and Steem.chat are very powerful tools. Networking properly helps too.
Maybe consider writing a post about it to help other Steemians navigate those places?
I've been thinking about that. But I also have a question about the upvote decay process, do you understand how/why that happens? This post went from $178 to $149 overnight, now at $145. That is pretty steep for 12 hours.
I don't know the exact math or algorithm but I believe there is a finite amount of STEEM and/or SBD that is created each day. Its distribution is based on how many active participants, how many votes over how many accounts and then factor in the volatility of the cryptomarket. From what I read somewhere...(I think it was one of @neoxian's posts) there is too much SBD and witnesses are suggested to adjust the interest rate. It's also recommended (and I can't remember who said it) that 100% Power Up posts will help the excess supply.
Honestly, I with I had a better head for the dev side of things. It's fascinating...and a totally foreign language to me. :o/ meh.
It's interesting , I need to go read up on it. 20% drop in 24hrs seems a bit steep. I am keeping my posts at 100% powerup, I am trying to earn my way to my "vote slider". This new 10 votes thing with HF19 is crushing my ability to spread votes around with any value.
I've managed to keep my vote power above 80% but I'm leaving a lot of 1% upvotes for comments (just so I have a visual tracker) and I'm upvoting content, especially with this crazy challenge anywhere from 20 to 100%.
Considering that the majority of y'all keep posting content and none seem to be slacking off, I'm voting anywhere from 20 to 60+ posts a day...I think. Maybe more? LOL
What are you thoughts on accounts like this? @ photo-trail They found my post and asked about adding me to the daily photo post they do. I'm kinda on the fence about accounts that only post pages of other people work, and many times earn more than all the people's photos they are using.
I probably do not have a popular opinion about the trails. I'm not saying they are bad. In fact they absolutely serve a purpose for their communities - but they are pretty specific communities. If you do follow a trail be sure to track your vote power as some of the trails are aggressive curators; which is their purpose - to find posts which have the potential to earn, which can help boost a percentage of your earnings. I'll be honest though, it's been a good long while since I've joined a trail and I'm really out of the loop. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful on that.
I can't wait for the ability to adjust. I had to slow down on voting the last 24 hours or so so it could recharge. I feel bad when I vote and it's only worth 1 cent - yesterday I gave a randowhale to an artist I came across because my vote just didn't feel good enough for what she can do. ( Kristina @daio )
