I built a script to mine on my slow computer for fun. I have never found or submitted shares to the pool. My computer is 100% receiving work and hashing away. Can anyone recommend a solo mining pool where I can adjust my difficulty and actually find shares while mining with 3 MHs? I have another question if I never submit a share to a pool and a miracle happens and I find a block do I not get the reward?

First of all, i would recommend you to read BITCOIN MINING INTRO & RULES OF THIS SUBFORUM - READ BEFORE POSTING.

TL/DR Summary:
 - You CANNOT meaningfully mine bitcoin with your PC or laptop no matter how powerful it is.




Can anyone recommend a solo mining pool where I can adjust my difficulty and actually find shares while mining with 3 MHs?

Check https://web.public-pool.io/.



I have another question if I never submit a share to a pool and a miracle happens and I find a block do I not get the reward?

Yes, you don't get any reward when you never submit any share.



What pool are you using?

i mine on my slow computer also just for fun. i've never struck anything big but its fun and enjoyable . if its just you you will keep the reward but if others are in it and you upload it in a pool it will be shared

If you read his post more carefully, you would notice that post actually summarize your thread. I would recommend you to ignore this spam.
