So, I'm driving into work today and my phone goes off and I see this:  I literally freak out in traffic  . I've been mining off and on here since CK started the pool. Came real close to hitting a block a few weeks back and about 3 days ago I decided that I would spend a few coins and rent some hash (around 100 - 150T everyday). I knew it was a long shot and tbh I was about to give up renting today. I've only mined one other block (269489) with a Block Erupter USB stick back on Slush's pool in Nov 2013 and that's what started my obsession with Bitcoin mining. It's true that life does throw you a bone once in a while  Thanks to CK for this pool, when this block matures, I'll send a tip your way. |

I have a question. Are we all working at the same time on the same blocks? Or is it different all the time for every worker? for example if I have 10 minors under one worker and I rent a large miner it then ends, will it continue on the same block or will it all everyone has a different clock to work on. Also if somebody has a very small miner does it chances are way lower than something that they have 10 times that? Or is it just pure luck?

Haha I'm sure that made your traffic jam more bearable. Now I have 2 questions: where did you rent? And are you using IFTTT to get notifications on BTC deposits? |

Haha I'm sure that made your traffic jam more bearable. Now I have 2 questions: where did you rent? And are you using IFTTT to get notifications on BTC deposits? Yeah, nothing could bother me during that commute . I've been renting from MRR, renting the smaller guys' rigs, trying to help some of the little guys out versus the big rigs on there. I'd really love to know which of the rentals found it, it'd be neat if it was an S1 or something small. That particular SMS notification came from Blockchain.info, I actually forgot that I had imported that wallet into there! |

Mine at Jonny's Pool

Congrats 727miner! Since you rented the gear, I checked my own miners (since they've been rented pretty much non-stop for the past week) and thankfully it wasn't one of mine that found the block. That would have been downright depressing, especially since I've got them pointed here when they're not being rented  |

Congratulations 727miner, welcome to the club You should print the photo from your phone showing the bitcoin reward out, frame it and put it near you miners to be a constant reminder that its possible BTW, have you checked your s2 and s5 to see if it was your own miners that found them? So glad you never gave up. |

Cool, thanks for the explanation and link, I figured it was something like that.
So, I'm driving into work today and my phone goes off and I see this:
Way cool! Hope we all get a chance to see that at least once. |

Never give up guys, there is always a chance to get a block! |
