Title: Over 1,000 shares in Slush's pool, but no reward on confirmed blocks? Post by: atariguy on May 31, 2013, 03:06:59 AM Last night I decided to try out Slush's pool for a while, but went to bed and ended up getting disconnected. Today I see this:
# Block found at Duration Total shares Your shares Your BTC reward Block # Block value Validity 18284 2013-05-30 09:23:24 5:14:27 48529423 981 0.00000000 238658 25.41754350 confirmed 18283 2013-05-30 04:08:57 3:59:51 37961064 12 0.00000000 238622 25.50438406 confirmed 18282 2013-05-30 00:09:06 3:16:40 30931819 104 0.00000000 238598 25.47875001 confirmed So I got nothing for the time I was connected? Is this normal? Seems like I was cheated... :( Title: Re: Over 1,000 shares in Slush's pool, but no reward on confirmed blocks? Post by: fflewddur on May 31, 2013, 03:36:53 AM This happens to me once in a while too, but it always gets fixed within a few minutes. I think the system just displays zeros while it's computing your reward, instead of a message saying as much. Maybe the server was having some trouble and couldn't compute it for a while, hence the multiple zeros? Slush's pool is working fine for me right now.

Title: Re: Over 1,000 shares in Slush's pool, but no reward on confirmed blocks? Post by: KhronX on May 31, 2013, 04:00:53 AM You seem to have had some SERIOUS connection issues, and/or not that great a hash-rate(?).
With about 1.7Ghash/s, i submitted 4743 shares in round #18282, 5782 shares in #18283 and 7264 shares in #18284. The rewards were normal (considering the pool hash-rate, and the difficulty), in the region of 0.0038-0.0042btc per round. The way Slush's scoring system works is, the more recent the submitted shares, the more they're worth. Which is to say, if you submit, say, 2000 shares at the beginning of a 3h round, and then your 'net connection fails or something, you won't get much (if anything) as a reward. This is meant as a pool-hopping deterrent. On the other hand, if you DO reconnect a while before the round happens to end, you CAN get back up to speed in minutes :) If i got an average of 0.004btc for the 4-6k shares submitted in ~3h, you shouldn't be surprised you got zilch for ~100 shares submitted in the same time :/ Title: Re: Over 1,000 shares in Slush's pool, but no reward on confirmed blocks? Post by: atariguy on June 01, 2013, 05:45:07 PM Thanks. I guess I'm just too slow for the pool, then. But on every other pool I've tried, I've received about .019 per day, at least. Right now I've just got a single 7950, but I'm adding another one in a couple days.
Anyway, I found another pool that's working better for me. Title: Re: Over 1,000 shares in Slush's pool, but no reward on confirmed blocks? Post by: BitcoinBarrel on June 07, 2013, 06:36:40 PM What's the other pool you're using?
