Is that not a bit.. highly uncommon?

I'm on ltc.suprnova.cc for a few days , and I'm using between 1.6-2.3GH/s hash rates. Some rented, some my own KNC Titans.
First few hours, I get 2 solves. Then for 40 hours NOTHING.  Shocked

Is that even possible ?? Shouldn't that much hash rate pretty much guarantee one a day?

According to a Litecoin Calculator for 2.3 Gh/s (solo mining):

Expected Time per Block   20 hours 28 min

Probability of a Block in 6 hours   25.35%
Probability of a Block in 12 hours   44.27%
Probability of a Block in 1 day   68.94%
Probability of a Block in 2 days   90.35%
Probability of a Block in 3 days   97.00%
Probability of a Block in 7 days   99.97%

It sounds about right -- but definitely try another pool or spread it out over several to reduce your variance.

Dang. I was hoping to at least solve another one. Oh well.

Thanks
