I need my blocks ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I need at least 2 blocks to cover my nut with the electric company each day...... PLEASE dont start this crap again.............. Bob ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) After a couple days at Ghash (because of Slush's last bad luck stretch) I thought it was safe to go back to Slush this morning... and once again, murphy's law strikes. Nothing in sight...the silence is deafening.

I do not understand one thing, the Poles 4000Th and they catch blocks, and we 5500Th and we in an ass. It is 100% a problem in the pool and no luck nothing to do with!

It's now 21 hours with no blocks. I will give Slush 2 more days and if the results are still way below expected I will switch back to Ghash permanently. They have variance too, but its tolerable. Nobody is married to any pool.
Everybody thought Maddoff was great too until the day it all came tumbling down.

Back to load balancing again... Incredible how 10 mins into load balancing and expected Slush payout has halved despite 24 hours of full speed contributions! Hmmm...

That's how Slush's system works. It doesn't penalize people hopping into the pool, it penalizes people leaving (or even just reducing hash rate) during a round.

Load balancing in just about everything - mining, investing, etc. leads to greater peace of mind. I don't recommend trying it with romantic partners though ...
Slush is not a romantic partner, or else you are doing it wrong.

not sure if I can last 2 more days... starting to think along the same lines maybe 5000TH is becoming too slow with this level of difficulty.. Reckon Slush should drop his percentage to 1% to entice people to stay?

Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

Hi folks, I am mining using slushs pool. I have a few numbers in the 'estimated rewards' section, but none in the 'unconfirmed rewards'. Does this mean it is waiting for the block to be finished then my rewards will be shown in 'unconfirmed'? I know that you have to wait for a certain number of blocks to be solved for rewards to be moved from unconfirmed to confirmed, but at the moment i have 0 unconfirmed at all, and i have been mining flat out for about a day. In the statistics section it show many blocks being solved but they are all from a day or two ago, how many blocks are released and being mined at any one time? Thanks for any insight.

That's because its been over a full day (27 hours now) since we last found a block. SO nothing to confirm. These full day blocks are getting to be a nasty habit. ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Anyone know a block dance we can do to make it rain blocks? ![Kiss](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/kiss.gif)

Thanks mate! Good to know. Also, i have to switch off my mining rig every once in a while - and it appears all my rewards disappear from the estimated reward box! Is this to prevent pool hopping. Do i have to stay in the pool for the whole round. And if so how can i tell when a round is starting/ending so i know not to switch off my rig! Thanks so much

If i have to switch off my rig occasionally - would i be better in a pool that was not designed to prevent pool hopping. That way i could get my reward for the shares i did - even if i switched off my gear half way through. Is BTCGuild like this?

No. Here, if you stopped production after a few minutes of remuneration will be only memories.
