Just got a block...
Is it just me or have we been getting a proportionately larger percentage of p2pool orphaned but valid bitcoind blocks the last few months. We used to only get them once in awhile, but it seems to me that out of every 4 or so blocks now, one tends to be p2pool orphaned but valid.

And nobody's node is reporting the latest block. Windpath's node, which is usually on top of it is not showing 348298. OgNasty's NastyPoP stats don't show it... Those crazy orphan kids trying to hide! ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Really? I only recall two or so recently that were orphaned. Maybe it's because the block finding time is longer, maybe it's just luck. But I am glad that p2pool people have configured their units to submit stale shares.
Keep finding blocks!

Stale shares have found at least 4 blocks in the last 3 months, a significant increase, unfortunately not documented. Next week I will add tracking for stales shares the solved a block so we can see going forward....

Well, 95% of stale p2pool blocks are not stale network blocks - so that's a big percent ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) i.e. since there's on average 20 share-chain changes per 1 network block-change

Overall THs down, blocks coming in.
May be cognitive dissonance, but damn if it isn't happening quite often.

I believe it's cognitive distortion.... ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) P2pool luck is on a par with kano's pool atm, which is where most of my hash is - very impressed with kano's pool & his regular updates & payments ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) . I only point a few S3's at p2pool now, and as long as p2pool hash rate stays below 2PH I'll keep them here, but will pull them if hash rate goes too high. P2pool must be the only pool that performs worse the more hash power it has - a pretty unenviable position to be in for a pool ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

Yaay and all that. But of course that's an illusion. Luck is luck. :-) C

Indeed, I've had good payouts from my few S3's on p2pool lately - & with most of my hash being at Kano's pool I seem to have the best of both worlds ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif)

Holy moly - 3.5PH ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Far too much hash, diff through the roof - sorry guys, I'm off. I'll pop back when it's dropped again ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) EDIT: Typo, I meant PH of course....... ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)
