Thanks, not sure if I agree though. I think if you vote at the beginning it takes 7 days to payout, you will lose about 50%. If you vote 24 hours before payout you get almost everything. Depends how much your vote is worth. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Not sure what you mean by losing 50% over 7 days - this may be something I'm not aware of - but the very first upvote of a post is not part of the 75%/25% payout split. It goes 100% to the author. Whether you upvote yourself or I upvote you - you will get 100% of that first vote. I will get nothing, if I am your first upvoter.
