Hi @eeks I'm a newbie that happens to be following @gowersgirl
I'm really trying to follow along and learn the ins and outs of steemit. It's slow going but totally fascinating. The only way my brain can comprehend the payouts and vote weight is comparing it to the stock market. Some days are good and some days it's in the toilet. That's part of "the game" right? So I'll just write and share on my social sites and see where it goes. Thank you for taking the time to explain. It's appreciated.
