So.. Con, thanks for your great work, and your solo mining initiative. Kudos.
It has been fun. No blocks to the rescue though Smiley

Hey.. Sayonara dudes! Smiley
You're most welcome and I certainly don't bemoan anyone for bailing when the stakes are so high.

いろいろお世話になりました。さようなら。

New Bitcoin user here, just getting into the solo mining lottery with ~240GH coming online soon.  Can't win if you don't play.  I've read through this entire thread, but sure I'll have questions when my gear arrives.

Old user here, different user names to protect my privacy.
I am going to pull my rig. Moving tomorrow, and I'm probably not going to be back up again.

So.. Con, thanks for your great work, and your solo mining initiative. Kudos.

Best share I have gotten since the last block is 11093834673.459869. I am gonna go do my lucky block dance out in the warehouse where no one will judge me.
LOL... my best share since the restart of my rPi back in December with the 5 U2s attached to it running cgminer is 9.1M.  Pretty sure no amount of lucky block dancing is gonna help me out there Tongue... gonna have to figure out what to sacrifice next to the block gods... apparently they're not too happy with the goats so far.

My neighbor's annoying tiny dog (always goes nuts when I go by) is still a virgin.  It's giving me ideas right now.

Raining cats & dogs my Doberman was really annoyed, he doesn't like rain. So when we arrived at the park, he jumps out of the car, grabs the first tiny dog in sight, throws it in a mud pool, and runs off.. Ever saw a Doberman with an evil smile? I did.. Cheesy

Next block is mine.. Hehe..

i guess there is one feature everyone would want:
your "best share" added to stats to see how close you have been finding a block
Yes Please! That would greatly help those of us whose miners do not report the best share Smiley

or those that rent miners and have no way of knowing how close they came.


Just curious.. Reading about the chance of finding the solving hash of a block and understanding - I hope - how random that is, what would be the use?

Yes, thanks.

Great idea

In essence.. The guys pointing huge amounts of hashing power to the pool make my chance of getting that one solving hash even bigger. "It's the pool and it's size what matters." From this you can calculate your "luck factor."

Unless I'm misreading what you mean you're wrong. All that matters is your own hashrate because you're SOLO mining. Just because you do it through a pool doesn't change a thing compared to running bitcoind yourself and mining on that (edit: except that ckpool takes 0.5% if you do solve a block).

EDIT: Every share you solve has a chance of being a block solver. How many shares you can solve depends solely on your own hashrate and the difficulty, not on the total hashrate of the pool.

Hmm.. But a large pool will "cloud" many shares and distribute them. So you can factor your own hashrate against the pool as opposed to the overall hashrate. That way increasing your "luck factor." The overall hash "cloud" and your single instance in that will not weigh against a large pool with a shared hashrate. That's what I mean. Shares are being solved equally over the Net, but a large pool will "suck in" a significant portion of shares, thus mining in this pool wil change your overall "luck factor" as opposed to "going it alone on the Net." It's about "time" and "volume." Am I wrong?

i hitted 100ths for this shot

I pointed 1.something TH to the pool. "It's not the amount of men who are running, it's the man who wins."

send me some luck(PM or email), miners pointed here!

The luck factor isn't really what is described recently.
When a pool mines blocks, it gets hashes. Those hashes are distributed amongst the miners in the pool.
Now.. One of these hashes could be the hash that solves a block.
So, the math involving the "luck factor" is way more complicated than "a dice with ~40billion sides."
But within the pool's stratum of work distributed, even a minor miner could hit the jackpot.
That's the "fun" of mining solo in - mind you - a large pool.

Comments on flaws in reasoning please..

.. your chance of finding a block is purely proportional to the total hashrate.

I decided to add my miner to your pool today.

Just hope & pray now Wink
