Honestly when I started I didn't get any curation rewards (I had 10 SP for signing up at the time). Only after I got a big payout for a post and got above 100 SP I started to get curation rewards consistently. I average almost 0.1 SP weekly now.
You have to also upvote after some minutes, if you upvote in the first minute, all curation rewards go to the creator. This percentage starts to decline until the 30 minute mark. So if you upvote at 5 minutes, you get 25%, 15 minutes 50% and after 30 minutes you get 100% of your curation reward share. Those are all raw figures, no one knows exactly how the algorithm works.
Ok, thanks, that helped a lot.
I'm guessing that my curation awards are accruing in less than .001 increments that keep them off the scale?
My vote is worth 1.5 ten thousandths of a penny.
I'm going up, but at a rate that is disheartening, but not unexpected considering my starting point.
