Been mining for 7 days now and the only time I got a block was after block 607 but before I updated to 0.8.54  So, they're gone now.

I don't see the point to this coin if we can't get a pool. How can it catch on if so few people have actually mined successfully? We need a pool before this can be considered useful.

I'm quite interested to know what's goin' on here.

If your CPU supports AES-NI instructions and you have the RAM to spare, I'd give this one a shot.
