Welcome to this weeks League of Excellence and Curation League for Indonesia. Taken from the impact I have seen from the original leagues ran by @abh12345, I have rolled out something rather similar. These league focus in on a geographical region. This region is Indonesia and the tags used in the analysis are Indonesia, Aceh, NCS and KCI.

These league tables are re-set every week so you can join at any stage, just comment below that you want in and you will be included the following week.

Curation League

Curation League. The aim of the curation league is to establish how effectively participants are using their SP to earn curation reward. This report takes the value of the Curation Rewards Claimed for a week divided by the SP Controlled. This is then multiplied by 1000 to get the SP earned per 1000 SP in a week.

There are ways to maximise your curation rewards and the SP earned per 1000 SP.

One way to improve your chances of increasing your rewards is to vote at the right time. @abh12345 has made the following suggestion about the best timing for votes

• Voting in the first minute will earn you a curation reward of almost 0.000

• Voting between 1 and 29 minutes will earn an increasing % of the curation rewards split, this value peaking at 30 minutes.

• It is commonly suggested that 15-25 minutes is the 'best' time to vote (especially on known 'power author' posts because they are likely to have more auto-votes coming in at these times - and you want to be ahead of these votes)

Curation rewards are maximized when you vote on a post before a larger voter or whale vote comes in. Finding these posts before a whale is a difficult task, you really need to think like a whale. What do they like and why do they like it?

There are some whale accounts that have a certain amount of predictability. Accounts such as Utopian.io and Dlive tend to only vote within their tags and do give large vote. If you are curating for maximum profitability then you could focus some time here. However I understand that many do not curate for financial gain and they are happy to see it as an added bonus for voting on posts they like (which is kinda what I do a lot)

The data for league 1- Curation league

The raw data has been collected from SteemSQL - @arcange's MS SQL Server copy of the Steem Blockchain.

The formula used is:

Curation Rewards DIVIDED BY Steem Power MULTIPLIED BY 1000

This will return the amount of Curation rewards gained per 1000 Steem Power held

The rules (which will cause auto-filtering of your account if not met so just enter anyway and see what happens!) to appear in this league:

• Must have voted at least once on a piece of content in the past 7 days

• Must not have leased or delegated Steem Power in the last 14 days

• Must not have Started a Power Down (withdrawal of Steem Power) in the last 15 days

Don't let this put you off entering though - you will be automatically be excluded/appear depending on the criteria above.

League 1 - Curating to maximize returns

The end column is what I think is a genuine indicator of how well you are financially working the curation game with the tools, including vested Steem Power, that you have at your disposal.

The Winners

Congratulations @isaideureka, that’s two weeks in a row. You are curating for profit very well. Congratulations also to @pataty69 and @j3dy coming second and third.

You will all share in the winnings.

Well done also to @adi.pisec, @didybireuen, @mrday @humaidi @jasonmunapasee and @el-nailul as you were all in the top 10.

The data for league 2- Excellence League

The raw data has been collected from SteemSQL - @arcange's MS SQL Server copy of the Steem Blockchain.

The following data points are taken

• Number of posts made

• Number of comments made

• Number of replies to replies (depth of conversation)

• Character Count

• Number of Witness voted for

• Number of Votes Made

• The number of distinct authors voted for

• The number of posts included within the specified tags that have been voted on

• The number of self-votes ( this is a deduction )

Using all of these values and a secret formula a Score of Excellence is calculated.

Last week’s winners are excluded from winning this week. These are @aneukpineung78 , @tfq86 and @gilanfarif131 and enjoy 100 SP delegation for another 2 weeks.

If you look at the league table it looks so different to how it looked at the start. I am so impresses with how less self voting is going on with the participants. Really good work and you are setting an example for the community.

This Weeks Prizes

Last week’s posts received a healthy vote from the awesome @fulltimegeek making the post payout considerably higher than previous weeks.

But then while fighting the war against reward pool abuse, the post got flagged and all rewards removed.

No wanting this to get in the way of the league and prizes I pulled out all stops to have earnings on the post restored. I reached out to many people on discord looking for help. The power of good always wins.

I would like to thank everyone that helped reinstate rewards on the post. But two well know figures ensure that the payment was boosted nicely. @bullionstackers and @themarkymark. Thank you both kindly, all the extra prizes this week are down you these two guys!

And extra prizes there are. This week 5 people from the curation league have won some SBD. And this week I have also awarded the normal delegation and

All SBD prizes have been sent – Delegations are on the way too
