RE: Introducing @powerbot - a simple delegation service (Trial Run #1)

Problem: @jesta my last deposit has not delegated so it keeps spinning but the person who put in a request after me has received their delegation. ID: 94f8510d

It just delegated to me right now but it did not timestamp at this time. It went through when the timestamped for the Transfer 1.473 STEEM to powerbot

It looks like you've got the proper amount delegated to your account, but something strange happened here.

Lately transactions have been getting orphaned on the steem blockchain and I think that's what happened here. Here's what I think happened:

• [5254aeeb] You sent 20 SBD for the first request, which worked fine, and delegated 976 SP.
• [94f8510d] You sent 17.82 SBD for the second request, which processed, but the delegation operation for 870.1 SP, but it got orphaned and never materialized on the blockchain.
• [07f7cc7f] You sent 1.473 STEEM for the third request for 73.65 SP, but instead of 73.65 SP, it delegated 943.812 SP, which was the amount of the second and third request combined (73.75 + 870.1 SP).
• The fourth and fifth requests processed normally.

The website itself never saw the 2nd request, so it got stuck in a pending state, but the full amount was delegated.

I'll work on fixing the bug that caused this, sorry about the confusion!

yep! that is how it played out.
