Yeah technically the AMOUNT of STEEM should be the same. You're getting a chunk of the pool. All that will change is how much that STEEM is actually worth.

Yep, that's what i was getting at. Thanks for clearing it up
In practice, many more people will be active and the reward pool will get depleted faster if Steem price is doing well in the markets and the opposite when Steem is low.
Hence easier to earn "bigger" chunk of Steem when it's low
So what you said will most likely be true, but not a rule
Yep, I also think I had some luck. I had some big people like @dantheman who occasionally voted on my stuff. I haven't had that for awhile and that could actually be why I had steem power growing so fast.
I'm pretty sure the type of people voting for me was a big factor.
Back then I was commonly posting things that were about 10% of whatever the top trending posts were. So if I had continued that then I should have been mostly writing $100 - $300 posts for the past couple of months. I've had a couple do that but my average % versus trending is actually quite a bit lower. This could actually explain WHY my steem power was increasing faster. Oh and I am not complaining... I'm content and satisfied... just sharing my observations.
