Ladies and gents, welcome to the new and improved MAW. MAW has been around for more than a year now and it has worked pretty well for most of the members. The only flaw that MAW had was that it could not allow many new members to join. So with this update we will be tweaking settings and rules in order to let new members join.
All the old members do not have to delegate according to the new rules (the joining delegation). The voting weights will be slightly lower in order to allow more VP for new members.
New members can join by delegating a minimum of 150 SP and taking part in the daily upvote on
Old rules for joining still apply: the minimum amount of SP required (500) and a Steemit Reputation of at least 50. In the case where you do not have the minimum amount of SP to upvote or delegate then we can look at paying a direct steem fee. (This is not advised since it is only profitable if you post daily)
Upvote Brackets:
The way the upgrades work will now also change to accommodate the new members. The upvote weights and values will decrease, but so will the fees. For example, each upvote bracket will equal 150SP. Then to double up on your upvote weight you can delegate 300 SP, triple will be 450SP and so on. I also decided that those who want to delegate to get larger upvotes will also get a slight bonus percentage.
Current weights
| Level | Upvote Weight | Bonus | Final upvote % | Upvote worth |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| #1 | Basic upvote | - | 8.5% | $0.01 |
| #2 | 2 x Basic upvote | x1.1 | 18.70% | $0.03 |
| #3 | 3 x Basic upvote | x1.125 | 28.69% | $0.05 |
| #4 | 4 x Basic upvote | x1.15 | 39.10% | $0.06 |
| #5 | 5 x Basic upvote | x1.175 | 49.94% | $0.08 |
| #6 | 6 x Basic upvote | x1.2 | 61.20% | $0.10 |
Weights can change weekly depending on member activity and post count. Paying Steem for the higher upvote will still be done monthly, the fee will be worked out according to lease rates and will be updated one week before the end of each month.
No wasted VP:
This is indeed all experimental and might change if something does not work. I will always have our members in mind and want the project to be worth it for everyone. =)

Member A. has 1200 SP on his account,
50000 / 1200 = 42% - this is the minimum upvote required.
