I am familiar with the brain trying to quantify and compartmentalize things, thereby looking for patterns to do so. That is why I asked, in my previous post, if I was imagining it or if it was an ongoing pattern.

If anyone knows where I can locate a list of all of Slush's pools blocks going back a ways, I'll even be happy to do the simple math and run off a list of blocks solved in the 24-48 hours after a difficulty drop going back for say: 10, 25, 50, and 100 instances to see if it is simply luck or if there might be an issue. I simply commented to myself about it a few difficulty drops back where I noticed the number of total solved blocks taking off but those on Slush's pool going slower than I imagined the recent average to have been.

Sorry to trigger a rant, you'll note I didn't post after noting it happen once but waited for three instances. Once can be chance, twice can be coincidence, but I begin to wonder with three in a row.

Note: Not implying anything here Slush, you'll note that even after the observations I'm still mining on the pool. Caught your reply also, but if the data sample is available (block list that includes time solved and block #) I'll still take a look out of curiosity.

Thralen: You can pick block stats in XLS from there: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=48889.0 It cointains around 8000 rounds from my pool. Its not up to date, but enough to do the stats.

But I can save your time telling you there's no reason to have a bad luck on diff change. But it's your time and thus your choice Wink.

Slush: I may well do that, still trying to find out if I am imagining it or if it is occurring. Alternatively I may take the lazy route and simply jot down the 24 hour luck percentage 24 hours after this difficulty drop and any future ones. *shrug* Like I said, I am more worried about whether my imagination is getting the better of me than I am as to if it is occurring or not. Huh

Hi, my average hashrate is usually around 2200 Mhash/s, but the screen says 596 Mhash/s. Could it have something to do with that problem?

Average hashrate is calculated from submitted shares in last 10 rounds. It can be explained by some connection issues or if your miner was offline for some time. Did you have some connection issues today?

What struck me is that the hash rate in my account screen went up and down without relation to the actual performance of my miner. Anyway, now it's catching up. Thanks for your kind help. (It must have been that I've been offline for some time.)

How is luck calculated? Wat is the standard it is compared against? Because it is a very unlucky day.

Luck is determined by how many shares over or under the current difficulty it took to solve a block.  The difficulty should be the average number of shares needed to solve a block.

More shares than difficulty = bad luck
Less shares than difficulty = good luck

Eveofwar is right, it's calculated from block shares and difficulty from the time of the block.

Yes, current block rate is pretty weird, I hope it gets better soon :-).

Thanks for answering.
So does that mean 100% is actually 50% of the difficulty (in shares)?
If I have the exact amount of shares as difficulty what would the % be?

100% of round luck is when shares == difficulty.

Caught a strange: in yesterday stats 9 BTC blocks in a row show "none" as NMC reward.
At the same time NMC stats page shows a lot of found blocks.
Are they all invalids or something like this?

I noticed that too.  I didn't mine all of yesterday, but I can still see blocks 9087-9089 with BTC and no NMC.  I have also noticed that NMC shows none for a little while after the BTC is calculated, but then about 5 minutes later it usually shows it.  People are more interested as to how many BTC they earned, so BTC would be calculated first then NMC second.

Yep, calculating rewards for NMC stucked up, I'll fix it soon.

Edit: NMC rewards fixed and paid out. Also those "None" in NMC rewards should not happen in the future.

Yep, it was the rest of yesterday's issue. I finally found a time to calculate those blocks and it should not happen next time.

NMC reward "none" at block 9184

Now it's ok, there wasn't a NMC block at this time. It can happen when two namecoin blocks are found at almost the same time, so our submit lose the race.

Strange, email is working, I received one payout notificating two hours ago. Can you re-check your side for potential issues?

This is really weird but both those emails just ticked in. They must have gotten stuck somehow though I can't think of how or why.
