I was going to comment on the self-voting, but I see someone else already has done so.

Still...

• First of all, I cannot see anybody, day after day, making 10 posts a day

• Anybody does that kind of self-voting is going to make a lot of socialist vigilantes happy, as they will have some serious flagging to do

• If you are self-votting, did you calculate the curation deducted correctly...since you will also earn as a curator of your posts?

What I would enjoy seeing is someone buy much more than a million and have their fun posting, upvoting a few deserving small posters while earning and flagging all those who flagged him when he was a small fish.

While I am here, can anyone explain in a way we all can understand how the curating works? I've understood that I must wait 5 minutes, yet I see big accouhnts upvoting within the first few seconds.

2nd puzzles is: only the first 30 upvoters earn something (it seems this includes those who voted before the 5 minutes). What about a post, just to make it easy, let us say it earns $6 (Steem), $3 goes to the poster. Three gets shared by the 30, but, there are only 6 'curators'. Does this mean they each get 0.50c?

And here is where I get confused. Does it depend on the voting power so that those with big SP earn a larger share?

Does the 30th voter also earn but at much less?


I have not seen anyone explain or answer these questions in a way I can understand.
