Title: It's raining BLOCKS and dogs
Post by: Lem on June 03, 2012, 09:38:15 AM
LOL!

I've been pool-mining for a while - let's say a bit more than a month - with a system capable of 700-1350 Mh/s, and up till now I've collected a fair amount of about 30btc.

The funny thing is that I've found three blocks: two with Deepbit, and one with Slush... and I've sent a decent amount of shares to Deepbit (however, much less than 50%), but almost none to Slush!

Moreover, I should say I've found at least three blocks (I'll pay more attention from now on). Well, three blocks would have been 150+btc.

I mean: I do know I'm... "pretty fly for a white guy" ;) ;) ;) - but this pace is too charming!

I'm actually tempted by solo-mining, who knows...

if you had solomined you would have found no blocks for the rest of your life
if you continue to mine pools you're going to find like a hundred blocks

choose your destiny

I threw a ~300 mhash machine up yesterday on solo by accident and it hit a block in the 2 hours it was running. That's the only block I've found soloing in 2 years.

Come on, there's one main good reason to mine also at deepbit. And you know it. ;)

Yep! Things go always like that: your good luck is blind... but your bad luck sees you perfectly. ;)

Do tell? I know of exactly 2 good reasons -  uptime and hoppability. For full-time PPS mining, BTC Guild is a reliable pool with a fee half that of deepbit's. P2pool is about as reliable as your internet connection, and ozcoin and EMC both have reasonable uptime and a fair payout method (Double Geometric).
