Randomness is a bitch, try to make it look even then it's not randomness anymore.

If you have ever gambled you will know how common losing streaks are. Not a reason to worry.

BTC Guild is ~28% of the network speed.  So you'd expect a block *roughly* every 25-30 minutes right now.  If you want an example of how bad luck can get, just look at the network as a whole.  We have (normally multiple times per difficulty) periods where THE ENTIRE NETWORK doesn't get a block for an hour, even though it was averaging one every 8 or 9 minutes that difficulty.  If the entire network is having a period of 1 hour without blocks on a semi-regular basis (more than once per difficulty normally), you shouldn't be surprised if a pool under 1/3 the network size occasionally has a block lasting 3 times that duration.

RIP BTC Guild, April 2011 - June 2015
