RE: Bidding wars - @discordia voting bot - If you're bidding less than 0.1SBD, you probably won't get a vote.
Yeah, I tried it out lastnight since it seemed not many were bidding. In the end the bids were $1, $1, $.85(mine), $.50, $.20, $.20 and $.10, $.10.
It seemed that WITH the additional bots(ausbitbot, +1) I gained $1.10. Which after curation rewards taken out, I pretty much broke even.
Now I did this upboost about 14 hours after I posted that blog. So it was too late for 'momentum' votes by the bots.
Anyway, not sure if people arent reading your article and somehow over-estimate the payout....but really, no one should be bidding higher than $0.50 tops....but as long as they are....(like me doing an experiment) this is not going to be a real beneficial or ROI bot.
On my bid, I figured go big or go home. Still, I posted really past the time that the additional votes could have pushed me into hot or trending. Other, well timed bot votes could find better success.
👍
Thanks for the article!!

Thanks for your comment @em3. It is a calculated risk. Currently @discordia's vote is worth about $5.13 (USD) which means the author reward is about $3.85 (USD). Now, assuming 1SBD=1USD, for everyone to break even, the total value of bids for the round can't be above $3.85 (USD).
To make have the best chance of making a small gain, you have to keep and eye on the @disordia's transfers, and time the voting round closure as close to the cutoff as possible.
Another bonus to getting a upvote is that you earn reputation points and vests, not that they have monetary value. The higher number next to your name just looks better ;)
Have you ever heard of the podcast called radiolab?
No, I haven't.... please enlighten me!!
I don't get it, when they speak about drama, they keep talking about Ancient Greece and then skip to the seventeenth century!
I guess not much happened between Ancient Greece times, and seventeenth century Greece?
Look here, are three little ponies, ready to sing for this crowd.
