Hello everyone. Mr Squiggle here, the #TeamAustralia Curation Martian.
As you know, I have been setup by my master, @scooter77, to provide additional support to the #TeamAustralia community and to seek out and highlight the awesome and creative content being produced within the #TeamAustralia community.
After upvoting all #TeamAustralia posts for the past month and being managed by my master @Scooter77, we have decided to make some changes to the bot to provide more support to those who produce great content on the platform.
The Minnow Support Project in conjunction with the @mrsquiggle bot have teamed up to make this bot a truly community based and controlled bot.
The changes were first announced by @minnowsupport in this post MSP 2.0- Community Building and a #TeamAustralia Important Announcement today.
With support from the #MinnowSupportProject and MSP’s illustrious mayor, @Aggroed, the @MrSquiggle bot has undergone some re-configuration to become more of a #TeamAustralia community bot. MrSquiggle has been incorporated into MSP3K, a computer program created by Witness @netuoso, and now allows for community managed curation on a single account. No longer will all #TeamAustralia members receive a small upvote. Instead, a group of active #TeamAustralia community members will now manually curate quality #TeamAustralia community member posts. This will enable more of the wider community to decide what is quality content and what deserves an upvote or resteem.
Who are the Curators?
An illustrious team of rag-tag, but very active, #TeamAustralia members have been selected to troll through the #TeamAustralia tag and upvote and/or resteem quality content from the community. The chosen ones at the moment are:
@Choogirl: An active member in the #TeamAustralia PALnet Discord channel and #TeamAustralia's star recruiter
@Sammosk: An MSP MOD and all round good guy who gives his all to MSP and #TeamAustralia.
@Gohba.handcrafts: Another regular in the #TeamAustralia PALnet discord channel and active supporter of all things Aussie!
@Shellyduncan: A wonderful 'chick' and fantastic supporter of #TeamAustralia and @MrSquiggle since his inception
@Ancientmystique: Another longtime active member of MSP and #TeamAustralia
@Scooter77: Master and commander of @MrSquiggle
@Ausbitbank: #TeamAustralia witness and all-round good guy!
These curators will be able to upvote and resteem from the @MrSquiggle account. This provides more opportunities for quality content to be curated and also has more sets of 'eyes' scanning the community for that fantastic content. More curators will be added over time, building the community and making @MrSquiggle a true community bot.
Would you like to become a curator for @MrSquiggle? Come and seek out @Scooter77 in the #TeamAustralia discord channel. Strict conditions apply.
Auto Upvoting Bot Delegators
@MrSquiggle will no longer auto-upvote every #TeamAustralia as we already have the @Centerlink bot setup by @Ausbitbank doing this. From now on, @MrSquiggle will only auto-upvote delegators who contribute to the bot or @Centerlink.
Members who delegate at least 100SP to either @MrSquiggle or @Centerlink (or a combination of both) will be placed on the auto up-vote list and receive an upvote from the bot on their posts. (Upvote strength will be monitored by the community curation team)
These changes will enable the @MrSquiggle bot to grow stronger to support the community and to better promote and upvote quality posts and content from the #TeamAustralia community with support from the #minnowsupportproject.
How can you support the #TeamAustralia bots?
Well I am glad you asked.
You can delegate 100SP to @MrSquiggle using the following link: https://v2.steemconnect.com/sign/delegateVestingShares?delegator=USERNAME&delegatee=mrsquiggle&vesting_shares=206059.153296%20VESTS
(You will need to replace USERNAME with your own Steemit username before submitting)
To delegate to @Centerlink use the MSP Delegation Helper: https://mspdelegator.herokuapp.com/mspdelegator
We hope to have @MrSquiggle added to the MSP delegation helper in the near future.
Once you have delegated to a bot, shoot @Scooter77 a message in the PALnet discord channel and you will be added to the @MrSquiggle auto-upvotes.
Where do I ask Questions?

Great idea and you really couldn't have picked better people to be curators.
Well, best we don't piss any of them off!!!
Whoops... I mean, what a fantastic group of Ladies and Gents, you have my total admiration.
Actually, this is a great initiative.
I'm excited to be on board with @mrsquiggle.
Although I still have to work out how to make the bot work. Hmm...
Great choices @mrsquiggle
