Netcoin solo mining, strange drop off.

[howardb]

Hi guy's, i'm seeing a strange issue with solo mining netcoin. Difficulty has been jumping around 16-30, I was quite happily solo mining and getting between 2 and 6 blocks a day (512 coins a block), then three days ago I stopped getting ANY blocks. The client and cgminer all seem to be running fine. I know variance is high when solo mining, but three days?? (Current difficulty is 22, which implies a block every 6 hours or so for my 4MH rig).

Any ideas??

I've avoided the net coin pool, because there is only one pool and that seems to yield substantially below what the maths says it should (I suspect a lot of pools are ripping people off).
