First and foremost, I want to give credit to the creator of the LuckyLuke Bot @inertia , as obviously with him this post cannot be possible. For those who don't know what LuckyLuke is, it's a bot that looks for transfers to known bid bots, and preemptively upvotes those posts, with hopes of curation rewards for the user.
So just to preface all of this, I am a minnow. I mean, minnow. M-I-N-N-O-W. But I'm proud of it, and I'm just getting started, primarily in the photography realm of things, showing off my photos with hopes of upvotes. Seems to be working so far. In attempt to get more curation rewards and steem power, I stumbled upon @inerta 's post:
https://steemit.com/radiator/@inertia/luckyluke-rb-voting-bot
which gave me all in info on how to set up the Lucky Luke bot. I'm not particularly code savvy, but I know my way around computers, and have a home theater PC/media server running at all times anyway, so I used this to emulate Linux and run the bot. The instructions on the post above are really easy to follow, and I had no problems at all. I wanted to share my initial experience and curation rewards.
Initial experience:
I added all of the Steem Upvote Bot Tracker bit bots (http://s3.amazonaws.com/yabapmatt/bottracker/bottracker.html) made by @yabapmatt (another sincere thanks!) to the voting bot, and set my minimum bid to 0.01SBD, and sat back and watched the fun!

Not great, but better than nothing! Please let me know if anyone has any questions about the process, or if anyone has any experience with the bot also.
cool as sugar honey iced tea! lol. Keep it going though.
Nice, thanks for letting me find out about this. Will probably setup today.
easy enough to set up, still tinkering with the best settings though also
What do you find best as setting? I'm only voting until I hit 75% voting power. Should I lower my minimum? I also set 5 min after transaction detection to vote, what's your delay?
I set my voting power to vote until 40%, but you made me think about this, maybe it would be better to have a higher vote weight and curate vote less often. My delay is 2min.
Thanks, man. Btw, I think it's better to follow the bigger upvote bots, I'm following the biggest 3 at the moment. I'll update my payout history once I have it.
I just changed to set it to 1.0 SBD or more in transfers only, we'll see how this works.
I'd imagine that I'll see your name on mutual posts.
