@tipU Curation Project Update #1:
Hi guys, how's it going. The @tipU curation project is in testing for about 24 hours now and it's time for first updates :)
Curation Mana
The previous system used 2 variables to determinate the curator's usage of @tipU voting power: allowed votes per day and maximum upvote. Because of some last moment changes it led to some funky results so I've figured out it's gonna be better to simplify it and use only one value - curation mana.
It's basically as simplified version of STEEM voting power. If you check https://tipu.online/curators you can see that curation mana is expressed in something like this: 80% (4/5)
Each curation vote will drain curators curation mana and when it reaches 0%, curator is no longer able to cast curation votes. This value for every curator is reset every 24 hours back to 100% so no worries.
The (4/5) represents amount of 1% @tipU upvotes the curator can use. In this example he can use 5 upvotes that have power of 1% and he already used 1 - so 4 left.
Now the cool part is that curator can use all curation mana at once or any selected part of if. In our example he already used 1 by using @tipu curate command (by default the curation vote is always 1%). Now he can use @tipu curate 4 which will tell @tipu to cast 4% upvote. Curator can also use 0.5% by using @tipu curate 0.5 and in this example he will still have 3.5 curation mana left (70%).
But there's one thing - some users use an interesting curation strategy by casting many very small curation votes (like 0.02%). While I totally understand why they do this, this greatly limits the content creator's reward - after all he only got 0.02% from @tipU and maybe he deserves much more - but on STEEM everyone can vote only once (without loosing all curation rewards). Therefore I'm thinking about setting the minimum upvote to 1% - let me know what do you think about this idea.
Score
Also score calculation has been simplified. It's a relative ratio between actual total curation rewards and total standard (expected 50%) curation reward. Sounds weird but it's really simple:
score = (total_curation rewards - standard_curation_rewards) / standard_curation_rewards * 100
If it has positive value - like 20 - it means that the curator is creating 20% more curation rewards then the standard, 50% of vote value reward and negative value means that's it's less.
Good curators should be able to level up much faster now and have more control over @tipU voting power quicker. One thing to notice is that initially every upvote will have big impact on the curation score but the more upvotes done, the more stable the score will become.
That wraps it up for today, I hope to code the reward pool for curators tomorrow :) Remember that the project is live for about 24 hours now so I'm sure there's gonna be more glitches, fixes and tweaks in the upcoming days.
If you didn't manage to get nominated yesterday, let me know in the comments ;)
@tipu team, Please contact me on discord. Need to discuss something with you.
I think it's good that you set the minimum at 1%.
I would like that please add me as a curator.. thank´s.
I didn't manage to get nominated yesterday. Would love to be part of the curators :)

All 4 posts are pretty interesting, it's an original content from folks who are pretty passionate about what they're doing. I hope to fine tune the system so that curators like those have the most power :)
Awesome!
Could you add me to the curators team, please? ;)
@tipu nominate :)
@amico already is a @tipU curator :)

Any chance of nominating me? feels better to use time on looking for good posts when i can actually help the author with some rewards! :)
@tipu nominate :)
Hi @brasan! @cardboard has nominated you to become a @tipU curator! You can now request 3 @tipU upvotes per day on any content you like. The better curation reward you can get, the more upvotes with higher value you can send. You can nominate new curators as well!
To send the upvote, please comment under the post and at the end of the comment, add: @tipu curate. To nominate someone else you think would make a good @tipU curator, reply to one of their posts or comments with: @tipu nominate. All of this is of course free :)
Check out https://tipu.online/curator?brasan for more information and to see your stats :). Have fun!
Please let me get involved in this big thanks in advance
I hope to be a curator~ (＾▽＾)

STOPDo not miss the last post from @steemitboard:
Vote for @Steemitboard as a witness to get one more award and increased upvotes!
What are the plans for the number of curator spots available once this gets out of the testing phase? I just did an opinion post about why this is a fantastic idea but I couldn't get any information on how many curators can be added into this system.
If nominations are still available feel free to nominate me. I love sports, steemmonsters and creative types of content. :)
I hope to be a curator~
Please, give me a nominate comment ^^

Hope you implement 1% min - a bit annoying to see something like 0.02 for the post I wanted to curate(but someone did 0.02 first and I cannot vote for the post)
interesting! would like to join the fun too!
