It's been a busy week here at the ATS-David headquarters, so I wanted to update all of my inquiring followers and fans.

First and foremost, since literally everyone has been asking me about this and apparently needed some immediate answers... **_I am still a Steem witness and my node is back up and running._** With all of the hard forking going on around here and the need to run replays afterwards, it took a while to get the new MIRA setup functioning. Prior to the last replay needed a couple of days ago, the previous one was at 98% when the chain broke again. But luckily for me, I have nothing but tons of free time, so replaying for eleventeen thousand hours again and watching people unapprove me as a witness because my node was temporarily disabled was super fun! If you unapproved my witness because you thought I had abandoned it, please consider approving me once again.

In other news...I survived hurricane Dorian, which blew through town on Wednesday.

So, while the MIRA witness node was replaying, I was dealing with some weather out of the tropics. I know everyone was extremely concerned about my physical well-being, so I just want to report that I am OK, the house is still here, and it's now 95 degrees during the day once again. Lucky me.

As promised to many people a while back, I will be restarting my daily manual curation and have set up a curation trail.

With the return to 50/50 rewards, I will honor my word and return to my regular curating habits that existed prior to the past year. If you'd like to follow my votes, you can follow this account - @ats-david - and jump on board the curation gravy train! ![goldbars.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmSH6Vwq5sP1ye5MRWcg9iGnzBBzo1Hv3xELX8xzLMv42Y/goldbars.jpg) My trail will be back-loaded with ~63K STEEM Power in the @ats-witness account which will vote one minute after this account's vote. Delegations should be returned soon and then I will re-delegate to where the SP is needed on the trail and begin curating. **Full disclosure: I will be self-voting posts from this account and from any official posts from the _BRO Sports & Gaming Network._ The number of votes cast for these accounts will be minimal - likely averaging about one per day.** The rest of the voting power will be used in the sports and gaming tags and on other content that I feel is valuable. I make no promises to "the community" about my curating habits and I do not vote based on the size of one's wallet. I upvote things that I like and I neither apologize for it, nor do I seek opinions or advice about how I *ought* to be voting. I was once on of the top curators on this platform, before I had whale followers and without trying to vote on people who were already "popular" users. I hope to be able to duplicate that success.
