Changes to the plan coming shortly. Please stay tuned for a new post. The information below is outdated.
Over the course of the next 5 days or so the following changes will be made to @randowhale in order to improve results for you, the community. Please note, during this time you may continue to utilize @randowhale. The only noticeable differences will be the voting weight and voting account, both detailed below.
Details:
In order to process more requests, with a higher payout, the voting range will be adjusted to 0.10%-1.00%. After speaking with some smart humans, I have confirmed this should result in increased rewards given the increased voting power even though there is a reduction in the voting weight. The account that places the votes will be temporarily changed to @randowhale1 which has 100% voting power currently and comparable Steem Power allocated. @randowhale will be taken offline allowing him to recharge to 100% voting power. Requests should continue to be sent to @randowhale and not @randowhale1. This will occur within the next 24 hours.Once 100% voting power has been reached, @randowhale will be brought back online with a new voting range of 0.10% - 1.00%. The donation will remain at 2 Steem or 2 SBD per request.
Please follow @randowhale to stay current with updates and upcoming changes. A post will be made as each change is made.
Hmm I will try it out. Though I guess I am missing something. Avg voting weight percentage between 1 and 5 was 3%. Between 0.1 and 1 that's 0.55%. That's a near sixfold reduction. To counter this, there should be a near sixfold increase in voting power, which there is not. Only around 3-4 fold, from avg 30% to somewhere in the 90s. Hmmm.... what am I missing.
I agree... It seem so low, 0.5% was ok, but 0.1% . who nows, I'll give it a try, and see if it gets $5 or above, otherwise it means losing money (5-2=3, 3/2.5 = 1.2). And getting lucky with a high percentage doesn't compensates so easily. I don't what to gamble as if randowhale were a casino. (And I just send by mistake to randowale, such a shame!)
if people are willing to pay it then they will and can do that.
Thanks for the maths!
Quick question....How long does it usually take to full repower?
randowhale changing seats :)
Even the best teams needs to recharge
NICE!
Nice
great gif use. Im a fan lol
please how can i utilize your services @ randowhale i have been seeing your username in many post but have not really gotten a hold of it. is it a contest,challenge ..? help me out please,still a bit new.
Visit the profile of randowhale and read up on the past post. You'll be englightened.
ok thanks pal
Didn't know whales spoke the language of humans, that's so cool!
So South Park was right!
Truth
Lies
hahahahahaha this fits perfectly!!!
According to https://www.steemnow.com one 1% vote from @randowhale1 will be worth $3.31 and it is now at 100% voting power.
So you pay $2 to get a $3.31 upvote at best.
Hmm...
If you don't like it, don't use it. It's that simple.
Fair enough sir
Also, remember, its 2 steem dollars, not 2 US dollars. Yesterday, a steem dollar was worth about 1.5 US dollars.
I will try this if I ever have any Steem dollars
Santa Claus might grand you a early wish :)
Wow.... just saw - Thanks Santa Clause - you and @randowhale are the Best
You're welcome. It was my pleasure.
Hey Santa! I've been a Good Boy, any advice where to start figuring out how to boost my account?
Like a link or something? Doing OK, but I feel like I could be making more hay while I am STEEMING!
;)
A good boy you say? hmmm, Santa will be watching. I would recommend participating daily and checking out the #whalepower hash tag. There are many opportunities to gain steem on here. Are you participating in contest and giveaways?
Very Nice! I have signed up for a couple of giveaways of late, I still really need to figure out how to buy Steem and spread it around in my wallet. Once I do that I will start awarding sbd points like I have gotten twice... I'm still relatively new and doing OK so far!
THANKS!
@randowhale hi, you said the change to @randowhale was going to happen within 24h from the last post. Its been over 24hours. When will the change occur please?
I'm anxious to see how voting works with @randowhale1
Would this mean that some users might attempt to double dip on a vote now that it comes from another account, even though the SBD /Steem is sent to the same account?
Assuming you built in some smarts to stop that?
The same post cannot be voted on more than once, period.
Even if the vote is coming from the other randowhale1 account?
(Just trying to clarify) :)
Nah, that wouldn't allow enough time for the other account to recharge back to 100% voting power.
