Hi @caspermoeller89 and @bushcraftbites ... two comments from me in regards of what I saw you commenting, in case it helps:

For the Engine stuff...

Between L1 and HE things almost always differ now... HE have their own token configurations, so don't assume they are the same. Most of very similar... but there are a great deal of them that don't have very different configs and flows. And now especially that Hive changed the curation power to be always the same it means that all of them have very different curation splits and mana regeneration (token owners can configure this). And this is valid for many other things, like power down time, curation pool regeneration, what tags are valid for curation, etc.

For the CR,

In this case for CR I believe you should be getting a message 24 hours before your post curation... so you are aware of what is currently being targeted (unsure if it does not accept more votes after you get this message or not, but probably it does and this is just an informational message, but confirm with @acidyo). Then when curation date finishes and this message is modified with the actual curation rewards that get distributed to users you weigh based voted on.
