What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

With my earnings, I can afford a Venti Latte Crappuccino Albatrossio...
I am bringing you a pair of PJs with an emergency release rear chute for you, my dear ; )

Otherwise, you'd have to pay for a trip to the dentist. :(
At my current rate of Newsvine earning it'll take me approx. 100 years to pay for the dentist trip. But only 1 year to pay for the toothbrush and toothpaste. I know which is the more sensible option.

USD$4.79 total from two months! Go me!
That's AUD$6.08, which isn't too shabby. If I head down to Pizza Hut after 3pm I can get two personal pizzas and two drinks with that.
Sadly, it's not enough to have it actually paid out, but mark my words by the time I get to payout level I'll be ready to splurge.

"Total Available for Pay Out or Donation: $6.66"

Haha. I just got a new credit card and the "secret code" is 666. A couple months ago I went to get a license plate and the next one off the stack ended in 2666--but the lady asked my preference and gave me 2667 instead (calling me a chicken).
At least I didn't get $6.66 for earnings! I don't know about you, but I'd be tempted to get rid of that total and give it to charity! ; )

I'm currently doing the analysis on the pay structure, but from an initial glance it's possible I would be underpaid in China.

$21.36 for Oct. If my calculations are correct.... that's about 7.3342 cents an hour. I just bought a ticket to Hong Kong. I start in a sweat shop on Monday...... Seriously folks, I don't stick around for the money.....

Not to brag but being number pushed my earnings a whopping ten dollars higher Jim so you know what's waiting at the top of the leaderboaard. It does make me wonder who made the $400 in August and how.

Pamela, it would certainly be interesting to do an actual analysis of how may votes, or comments that would take, but cursorily that figure would have to be around 10-20000? I've never seen an article get near that number and they specified that it was a few articles....

That is interesting to look at, Steve. I averaged $.35/seed in October, up from $.14/seed in September (I didn't write any articles in either of those two months).

I almost earned a WHOLE DOLLAR over the entire year! At this rate, it will take a decade before I can withdraw it.
I wonder if I earn interest on it while I'm waiting to have enough to withdraw?

Despite me posting about half the amount in October as I did in September I actually doubled my earnings. Not bad at all! I'll probably accumulate a bit more then send it onto some good cause or other - or just spend it on booze and loose women, whichever takes my fancy at the time ;¬)

My earnings will buy me one Ketel One and tonic in George's bar at the corner of Balbo and Wabash in Chicago. If I go kitty-corner to the Hilton, it'll get me a half of a Grey Goose and tonic.
I love that participation in Newsvine pays. I'm certainly not here for the big money (I'm not in the writing business for the big money either, although it'd be nice). Checking on my earnings total is a little like counting my money when playing Monopoly. It motivates me to write more, seed more. Okay, so it motivates me to THINK about writing more and seeding more.
Anyway, lauhal-I'll go halvsies on the thong for Nycam.

I'm certainly not here for the money. Even if I take my collective earnings from my entire stay here on the vine, I still can't use a payphone. I'm here for the community and the discussion.
And the ice cream. It's in the back office.

taking taxi 4times per work day = $150
MiniDV cam = $300
iPod microphone = $60
green shirt = $15
October Distribution = $13.16
Receiving a care package from Newsviners = priceless
ps. Zaki wants a macbook for Christmas, to replace his dying emachines laptop (might have to do something with that damn Afghanistan dust). Have your rich neighbors send donations! thx! ;)

I've been wondering the same thing actually.
I assume they just go to newsvine like the category pages, but as they are actually a subdomain it will be good to have this confirmed.
They may even possibly be split between all members - in which case I can't see them having a huge impact for people.

As far as I know, publishing in a group doesn't affect the stats or the payouts at all. They all belong to the original seeder or author. ;}
For the stories it goes to the original authors subdomain so they'd get the money, but on the group homepage (group.newsvine.com), that's where people are unsure on where the money goes - I assume it goes to Newsvine, like the main category pages.
