RE: HF20: Change Your Autovotes Now As New Posts Will Be Paid Using HF20 Rules
I figured this was the case but when I mentioned it, some think that it will not work in this way (that it won't backdate to open posts). I was just going on what happened for hf19 so I don't know the technicalities.
Hi, I thought this would be an important issue, but have only seen chats in discord. I now suspect we may end up with a mixed calculation at payout. If one looks at the data on steemd, the "weight" column means curation-weight and is calculated at the time of voting and includes factoring in any curation loss due to voting before 30 minutes. I suspect recalculating all of those to take account of the new 15-minute reverse auction will not happen, hence everyone will be paid their curation rewards under HF19 terms. However, the curation amounts that end up going to the author, the author_curate_reward, may well be paid to the reward pool as per HF20 - unless there is specific code to not do so for posts published pre-HF20.
@crokkon might know something about this. At the end of the day, it is one week of calculations only so either way, it might not have a drastic (at least not long lasting) effect on most people. I am working under hf20 rules just in case anyway (unless I forget). :)
@accelerator is correct, there is no recalculation of vote weights and payout rules apply accordingly based on whether the payout is during HF19 or HF20.
Thanks mate.
