Hello YabapMatt!
I love your tool, I am sure many others do to. I have a request, would you remove @upgoater? It hasn't actually upvoted in 2 days! It does seem to automatically split the profits with its investers though, but no comments nor upvotes.
Thank you.
EDIT: after a bit of looking, I see even you got snubbed by it for this post. You paid 1 steem and there was no upvote. Same thing happened to me and others, I believe because it is listed on your site, and turns green (profitable) every 2.4 hours. I read the warning on your site of course - just trying to do my part!
Hi @ecoinstant - @upgoater is voting properly every 2.4 hours as advertised, you can see for yourself here https://steemd.com/@upgoater
Also for the post of mine that you linked to I did indeed get an upvote from @upgoater. Let me know if you see any bids that came in to it that it didn't upvote but as far as I can tell it's working great.
My gosh you are right! Sorry to throw around accusations, the lack of comments threw me off.
So...its just me then! I found my series on steemd, and sure enough, it voted for everyone but me...
Hey @ecoinstant - I looked into this and your vote was missed due a "max_block_age" error which happens sometimes when sending transactions. I am still trying to figure out why it happens but until then I have updated the postpromoter voting bot software to automatically retry any votes that fail so this won't happen in the future.
I've just sent you a refund for your missed bid (with a little extra for the trouble!) and updated the @upgoater software version to automatically retry missed votes so hopefully this will not happen in the future.
Thanks for bringing this to my attention and please reach out in the future if you notice any more issues!
Wow! Thank you for the swift resolution!
I have seen these max_block_age erros when posting comments sometimes, its almost as if there is a very small amount of time between blocks that transactions can get caught in. Or they try to get in on a block at the last microsecond and don't quite make it.
