Patience, we'll get there!!
If you watch the animation straight up for 26 days you will see it fill to the top!!*
*That might be a fib ;0)

A live animation of the pool being slowly filled and extracted by payouts would be freaking amazing.
Wouldn't it just! Some kind of live feed thing. People love to see stuff like that!
Lol, better be a big bag of popcorn!! ;0)
Yep...There is more behind my seat...I'll save you some too...I'll send it thru the internet:p...Lol
Internet popcorn... That's my favourite kind!!
Yes! But, it is kind of mesmerizing in a way...Hey @meesterboom, this could be a new way of "blockchain meditation"...Watching the reward pool fill up! Lol
You might have something there. I might start farming this out as a de-stressing aid!!
LOL!!!
Wow... now I have to sit and watch this for 26 days... I hope someone brings me some food and beer, because I don't want to miss any action!
Heck yeah and i don't want to throw in a spoiler but day 23 is a little bit special!!! ;0)
claps
truly an inspiring.
Lol, yeah. It's deeply conceptual with many layers! ;0)
Great animation! This animation is more clear than more and more words ;)
It is quite the clear explanation isn't it! Thank you!!
Drips are better than nothing. We should get paid something in a couple of days and then it should just improve. It's the growing pains of Steemit
Yes indeed, you can already see a difference in the rewards compared to days ago!!!
DRIP! DRIP! DRIP! .... I'm gonna super-heat some of those drips and make STEEEEEEEEM!
Now there's an amazing idea. Superheated steem coming right at ya!!
Maybe it can have super-conductive powers and cut down on the lekkie bill loss for the witness servers = ONE COOL DRIP!
Those servers sure do seem to eat a lot of that leccy loveliness!!
awesome animation! How do you do them? Do you have a tip for me? I would love to try it but I don´t know how to start. Thanks. :)
I use an app called FlipAClip. It's on android. All you need after that is an imagination, a little drawing skill and lots of patience!!
Awesome animation, upvoting and resteeming
Aw cheers mate!!
Adding the source shamelessly - the rewards are coming lol: https://steemit.com/steemit/@uwelang/wondering-where-the-rewards-are-they-are-coming-check-it-out
Lol, there you go. It's a torrent a'coming!!!
oh yeah!!!
What all of this will be normal again
By the end of the month everything will be normal again :0)
thanks for the answer
I hope so
I think the most important thing is that, if we ever have another 'service disruption' kind of change, it must be well communicated in advance, on the front page, and the consent of stakeholders.
I couldn't agree more there. I was quite surprised when our pending payouts of pre fork posts were reset and I thought I was quite knowledgeable about the whole thing! Communication is king. Rather, it has to be!
It definitely will. Have no fear about that!
Great animation, I love the simplicity!
Thank you very much, I liked that too!!
Funny animation) Most clear of all explanations)
Cheers, a picture really does paint a thousand words!!
I just like to hang out with you here at Stemit!
Lol, excellent. You have a new follower then!
Mutually)
Smashing!
I am glad you like it, thank you!
Thank you for posting @meesterboom.
Lovely illustration. Steemians get it....clean and classy. Cheers.
Gotta stay classy @bleujay, thanks for looking!!
That is funny. Well done. You just need to add a stick figure jumping in and getting crushed.
Or looking over the edge and shaking their head in despair lol. Thanks man!
I will not have the patience to wait.... sorry :D
Hehe, aw!!! ;0)
waiting... and waiting... and waiting...
And another drop!!! ;0)
Like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pitch_drop_experiment
Lol, it can seem that way!!
I've kept the tab open for the whole day and nothing changed in the picture???
That's insane? Are you running Windows? Are you on chrome?
Can someone explain to a new user??
Yes indeed.
Rewards used to be paid out 24 hours or so after your post. There was a hard fork last Thursday which is an update to the code of the platform. As a result of that, the payout mechanism switched from paying out after 24 hours to paying out after 7 days.
This new payout is averaged out over the previous 30 days reward pool.
As we have just switched to this new mechanism the reward pool was reset. There is no previous 30 days to base rewards on so the new pool is filling up. After 30 days it should be full and rewards back to normal
Dammit, that still sound complicated. Let me know if that makes sense!
Thanks!
I stared at this for more than a minute, waiting for something to happen! HAHA What a fool I am! Awesome water splash effect though! Truly expertly done, brother!
Thank you dude!! I was very proud of the water splash. Such a fast and simple looking thing as well. You should have waited ten minutes ;0)
That water splash animation really looked intricate, and you really took advantage of what was afforded for you. Nice job, dude!
I really like those small details that people often ignore. It really adds a whole new depth to an entire piece. I've often been ridiculed for noticing things that most people don't, but then once I point it out they can't help but notice it haha!
It took a few hours as I over did it and it was too slow but i got the hang of it in the end. Cheers man. I like to notice the little details too!!
