Don't worry I mine right from the start and only have 11 blocks. You aren't too far away ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Bah damn 3am launch -.- Just got my miner up at 8am. It was mining the wrong chain at 3am til then.

I guess not then but that's still a decent amount! Struggling to find my next block now and the difficulty goes up soon. EDIT: Whilst posting that I found my 4th block ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I wanna know how far behind I am ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) I'm certain that I'm not #1, but so far I got 195 blocks. I was really surprised that I only got about 50% orphans in the first difficulty round. Now I'm only getting about 25%. Still going good.

I have some truly newbie mining questions. Never mined a coin before...
I've downloaded and built the litecoin source code (without miniupnp support, BTW, because on my natty ubuntu system, the miniupnpd build was complaining that it couldn't find pfvar.h, and I couldn't figure out what dependency to install to make it happy.) I put a password in ~/.litecoin/litecoin.conf, and ran "litecoind -gen." And it's doing *something*, chewing up cycles like nobody's business. But how can I get feedback on what's actually going on / whether it's working correctly, etc.?

Compile and use the artforz's cpuminer fork or tenebrix_miner and that'll give you lots of output ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) You run it alongside litecoind. See the first post

That's about 37 times more than me >_>

I've only got 60 - that's ranging from 20 to 30 kHash - so that's like blocks = 2 to 3 times the hash rate so far ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) But in the first difficulty I got 90% stales (4 blocks, 38 orphans) til I realised that setting the scan time to 1 second in minerd helps with that immensely (as someone pointed out above also - due to block time vs scan time) Orphans now in the last 20 blocks: 3 (which means yes put your scan time down!)

Totally agree, those who can help out, do donate some of your coins so that the developer can have more resources to develop the coin further. Coblee has done a wonderful job and deserves a donations.
Here is a Coblee's Litecoin address: LQhEJy3doEGi12k8LBnQCvDrwnudtyVxxW
Cheers.

Looks like I started mining about 10 hours late. Oh well, the difficulty should be still low enough for me to get few blocks (probably?)

You probably got a little unlucky there.

You probably got a little unlucky there. so no need for arguments on this? minerd.exe --algo scrypt --s 6 --threads 3 --url http://127.0.0.1:9332 --userpass miner:litecoin
