I would argue the curation curve should not even start until after 24 hours after the initial post time. Give everyone a legit chance to read it or know that it was even published and have 2 curation windows, the 25hr-72hr window, then immediately start back up again at 72hr+ to 144hr then it stops at the start of day 7, that is for the curation window of the post. That way if you miss a vote on post you can still hit another sweet spot of curation later on to encourage possibly more voting on a really good post that may take 4-5 days to get to you.
