Something that I have noticed is that the most that I can get from the various SBI accounts is 5-6 SBD votes, and while my projected vote has been over that for a while, I wasn't posting a lot, it has been dropping.
So, I think that I have started to work out what I think is going to be the optimal number of SBI units before I shift my focus from contests and start to invest my SBD in either powering up or adding to my savings.
That number is going to be 50SBD a week. I think that over time the amount of SBI that the voting accounts will be able to provide is likely to increase over time, and I don't think that its realistic for me to post daily, so that brings me to 50SBD, that will be 10SBD 5 times a week, or 7ish 7 days a week.
I haven't done the math to figure out how many that is, but its on my list of things to do. Currently my balance is around 38, and dropping.
By the time that the November contest closes I will have the balance ran down and will be back to a baseline that I can work from. This means that if you want to help me have a larger contest pool, send me some voting love :).
