Does it look like the "experiment" is working? Your views
First of all, I have to say I am impressed with my voting power atm...I recognize that this is also due to the Steem price increase, and that I don't know how much of a factor either is in relation to each other.

Could the "experiment" have brought on the price surge?  I wouldn't think so, but I'm open to an argument for that case.

I'm also impressed on the amounts I am seeing in my home feed for payouts.  It look like the folks who have been posting over the last day have been doing very well ;>  *Same arguments from above apply to this as well!*

IF the experiment is working, and these are the results, then HOW do we structure the system to create this environment w/o whale effort?

@dwinblood asks this in this post:
[Steem community brainstorming: If there were a voting power cap what could we do to make accounts beyond that cap still be compelling to have?](https://steemit.com/steemit/@dwinblood/steem-community-brainstorming-if-there-were-a-voting-power-cap-what-could-we-do-to-make-accounts-beyond-that-cap-still-be)

I really didn't have anything to contribute towards the post, but I think it's an important consideration...again, IF you think the "experiment" is indeed working!

***So what are YOUR feelings and thoughts on the "experiment"?***
+ Is is working?
+ Is it doing collateral damage in hurt feelings?
+ Is it related to our recent surge in price?

I think @htooms is responsible for most of that run up.
Folks took his buying in to be a trend, and now it has dropped back.

I don't really know but something changed for sure. I can gift everybody with the magic cent and it feels great. I got downvoted a few times and still not sure if it effected my reputation. I am stuck in my 65 forever. Usually I moved up much faster. Any advice on this?

I see your cent, and I raise you 4 cents and a follow, LOL

While I did gripe about some lost rewards, that is mitigated by the ability to have a weightier vote;  but different folks are going to put different values on that

I think that for attracting and keeping newer folk, it might be best to get them vested in the system by making their vote count sooner

What does "Working" mean.  ;)  

It did improve my enjoyment in engaging, as an end-user.  
Not sure how those who invested would feel about it.

Good question:  Is there a solution that works for everyone?

>It did improve my enjoyment in engaging, as an end-user.

So we know it's working for *some* of us

>Not sure how those who invested would feel about it.

That's the big question as far as our market cap goes, isn't it?

It doesn't seem to have hurt us, but I won't claim that the price surge was due to the "experiment", either

The results are working in a way but the method really needs to be revised if you ask me.  Passing out flags is kind of an antisocial thing to be doing on a social network.

Someone suggested having an investor class account and I can see how that might be good if we want to keep the enjoyment in engaging.  I do really like the increased value of my votes.
