Voting sooner rather than later!! voting after the post is 3 min. old and before it is 30 min. old gives the curator a larger ROI. Also, finding users that have good content that gets upvoted by a number of significant (whale) users, say haejin as an example (even though there is a lot of controversy regarding his acct.), is better than voting for someone that doesn't normally receive any upvotes....

In other words, if i vote on a post that is 14 min. old and has received 20-30 upvotes with a current payout of $2 and the final post payout is $150, you will get more for this when the curation rewards have been posted than if you voted say 3 hours after the post has been published. Make sense?
