Small-scale solo miners...

[tkbx]

Have you ever gotten extremely lucky when mining? A block found with a CPU in the age of GPUs, two blocks in a day when you make BTC0.5/month, or something else that's statistically near-impossible?

Ummm... What?

Firstly, the "age of GPUs" has long since passed, and secondly if you're solo mining (even back in the "age of GPUs"), you might as well just play the lotto.

Sorry, but a few thousand kilohashes isn't going to find any blocks this side of forever.

I found a block with an Avalon 65 GH/S solo mining. I believe I pocketed 3 BTC that day....=)

I'm going to have a go at Solo Mining when my new equipment arrives.
It's quite a gamble though. Gota love a gamble

If KnC live up to there promise i should have atleast 6TH between my 2 rigs.
It's still a drop in the ocean but I'm going to try anyway. 1 Block would be enough to pay for both Neptunes.

Well I hope you do find a block. Personally I wouldn't solo mine with only 6TH but that's me. To each its own. Good luck.
