Are you able to pick a specific post, then record when everyone voted,(with their reputation at that moment), then at the end of 7 days, see what their curation results are?
I believe the magic is poster and tag specific, based on the auto-bots.
SteemFormers more than meets the eye.
Ha!
I would say that is a tricky calculation to perform, and I believe that reputation (did you mean SP?) isn't related to curation rewards.
Cheers!
