News and Updates

Members check in!

First of all, I want to thank the members for the extra steem from last month. With that being the steem prices have not recovered much yet, but at least the lease rates are looking way better. So even though we are making way less steem we can lease more SP with the steem we gather. We will be having our usual collection round this month. Send in 2, 4, 6 or 8 steem to get into the higher upvote bracket. I have also decided to lease as the payouts come in, this means we will slowly gain more and more SP every other day. With the rates being this good we might as well try our luck.

I am very confident we will be able to raise the SP by at least 20%.

Paused Upvotes:
Some members have been paused because their upvotes fell below the minimum required upvote weight. This is only temporary and happens all the time due to SP changes or delegations expiring. Not to worry, correct you upvote weight and send me a message on Discord, comment here or even a wallet message to let me know the weight has been adjusted. Will unpause the upvotes ASAP. Please have a look at the formula below to make sure you are above the minimum.

Upvoting Rules

The @make-a-whale project requires constant feed from his followers. That way he can return the favor and feed his followers. This can be done manually or using Steemauto to simplify and automate the process. That way you never have to worry about missing votes.

You can pick how you upvote MAW:

1. Steemauto (recommended).
   Guide on how to set up your Steemauto account.

2. Manual upvoting - if you do not like using Steemauto you can manual vote.

We have worked out a scale that will make sure @make-a-whale always upvotes you with a bigger upvote than the one you used to upvote the daily post, if you post on average once a day. Thus, the fair scale ensure you always win!

There are some members who support the project with larger upvotes and this is greatly appreciated! The more we grow the more members we can recruit and give better upvotes. Thank you for the extra support!

Minimum upvote required

All members are required to upvote @make-a-whale once a day with a minimum of 500 SP.
If you have more SP and you would like to change the upvote weight, please use this formula to calculate the % of your vote:

50000/ (Your SP) = Voting Weight towards @make-a-whale posts.

Example:

Member A. has 1200 SP on his account,
50000 / 1200 = 42% - this is the minimum upvote required.

Delegation and Steem subscription options:

All members that upvote @make-a-whale daily post with the minimum required will receive back one upvote from the basic level.

If you would like to get a little more, there are two ways to reach bigger upvotes:

• By donating Steem - at the end of the month MAW will collect Steem towards the new SP leases. Transfer chosen amount to @make-a-whale and you will get bigger upvotes for the whole next month.
• By delegating Steem Power to @make-a-whale - you will receive bigger upvotes for as long as you keep your delegation active.

Check the table below for current values

Steem	Delegate	Upvote Weight	%
-	-	Basic Upvote	12%
2	150 SP	1.35 times the basic upvote weight	16.2%
4	200 SP	1.7 times the basic upvote weight	20.4%
