Thanks Johnny, It looks like you guys should be on your third block soon as well.

Mike, my rental is up in 14 minutes if you want to pick up where I left off. Safe to say, both of my mining rigs are here to stay at BCMonster now.

Well done. First block busted.

I just got home from work and looked at the pool web site, thought to myself -  that looks odd, shares stats have changed,  wonder if you had a problem - but then saw that you had found your first block.

Congrats  krisgt30

Thanks, super pumped, first 30 days ever mining on my first two machines, decided to go for the gamble and it payed off!

If im mining alone thats correct, hence why I asked more people to join in.

***update, just got bumped out of place by higher bidders, remaining 3+ hours on hold until the prices come back down.

Going to throw some serious hashing power in here once this rental tide calms. These early morning rates are crazy! I want our first block!

I hope you get it!  Ill make sure I take care of you.
About to put in for a nice long rental, waiting for order to go through.

British Columbia monster?  Tongue

It can be what ever you want it to be if you want to help us come find this first block.
Waiting for the order to be fulfilled on nicehash. Should go live overnight.

No luck, oh well, inching closer to that first block little by little.
It's a shame, but mining doesn't work that way.
I realize that, oh well giving it another hour!

Love how this pool hits 40ph and stops hitting blocks. Can we say withholding!
Exactly why I stopped mining on here. Took me only a couple of weeks to realize it by doing the simple math.

Can you explain how you did that? I wouldn't have thought simple maths is enough to prove your point in this case, so I'm keen to find out how you determined the correlation.

I know you're trying to belittle me since im a noobie, but I'll bite anyway, after some time mining slush, eligius, bitminter, kano.is, I took my speed, time mining, number of blocks found, and final payout for each block. Averaged it out, and found that slush was by far the worst for me.

Not trying to belittle you at all and I apologise if I came across that way. I've been working on this problem of Slush's luck for a while -- it's not an easy one to analyse -- and I wanted to know if I'd stupidly missed something simple.

Your maths is fine as far as it goes, but you might also want to consider ways to make the comparisons between pools more valid. For example (assuming your hashrate is constant) compare just payouts over a similar number of blocks rather than similar time period, and I would use a large number of blocks.

Even over a hundred blocks, you're still going to see variance of about +/- 20% of expected. If one pool has a not unusually unlucky hundred blocks and another has a not unusually lucky hundred blocks, there could be a 40% difference between them - just due to variance.






I understand the luck aspect, and the possibility of one pool getting extremely lucky and one not being lucky at all, but when I noticed that what it took me to make in 1 month in BTC at slush, I was able to make in another pool in one week (despite not having a ton of luck the week I mined it), I knew something was up.

Throwing up 1 ph/s for the next few hours.  Some one else throw some.  Should be online in just a few.
 
To hell with it, just rented 560 TH for an hour, fingers crossed.
  I appreciate the hashes.  Also Mario appreciate the big rig you brought on.

No luck on that one.  Ohh well.  In search of 1!
Was going to do the same but rental rates have been ridiculous the past week+ waiting for them to come down a bit

Saw him on last week as well when we had that 4 day block, figured it was someone just renting hash to solve the block.

Just joined. Throwing my sp20e into the mix since ck and bitminter seem to be on a dry run right now. If we see some luck I will throw my s7 in here too.



Thanks!  I may throw a little rental tonight also.  Really want to get that first block so we can get this thing off the ground. 

My s7 has been running in the pool as well. I may contribute rental hash as well, who do you use for renting? (I've only been mining for 30 days now)
