To note about voting rewards on Beethoven X
Beethoven X does voting rewards a little differently to most guage vote platforms. As well as having individual token rewards they'll often reward in LP tokens. For example the rewards for Staked Fantom & Circle Symphony (below)
Are the BPTs (Beethoven Pool Tokens) for the Fantom Menace LP on Beethoven.

BPT rewards
Where I voted last time
We like fMoney as a project and think FBUX is well priced right now so we're voting for fMoney with Attitude Vol. 2. This will, at current prices, get us approx. 19 USD in rewards at current vote distributions.
How we did
Not great. Just under half the rewards (USD) we had predicted. Though this was also affected by a pretty severe market pullback too.
Where I'm voting this round
Bribe markets
Voting power
We've looking at the raw return per 10K votes. Roughly we currently have 60K votes.
If we look at the top 10 in terms of ROI, we see Trio Of Stables is the best.
But it only ranks 7th in terms of total votes. So that indicates there's a higher risk of reward dilution come the end of the voting period.
Fantom Menace is 4th in terms of votes and ROI. An added bonus is we already have a position in the LP so the BPT rewards are able to be directly deposited into that.
$FTM has taken a bit of a hammering of late so there's a chance we'll also catch some positive price action too. 
Current vote distributions
Given the solid position of Fantom Menace in both current ROI and current vote total coupled with both the poor recent price action of FTM and the fact we hold an existing position in the LP which the BPT rewards are for we're going with it for this vote round.
We're looking at ~14 USD in total rewards.
