What are the chances of us cracking over 30 blocks again without getting more hashing power here?

If everybody went out and bought just one more new miner we would add about 20 PH to the pool.

I got 7 more on the way. Who else is in?

I've added 3 in January and I have 3 more on the way, 1 next week and 2 in March.

I added a few more and am looking to add around 100 th/s more by the summer.

That's totally rockin'! 
I added one a few weeks ago, and will grab one more by ditching my BitCH coin from the forkup as soon as possible!  
Add on, and Mine on!

And here I was, getting excited because I can FINALLY afford 2 more th/s.  :/

Don't be so down - Be proud of that S4! It has a Beagle Board

Time? Nope - the first block ever found on the pool was pretty slow coz the pool was tiny.
It was also lucky (less than 100%)

However, Diff% is what matters for rewards, and this one is 542% at the moment.

The 2 largest are there on the Web site Blocks page at the end of October - the largest being 928.788%

Now for that CDF related number
0.99557285335217  542.000%  1 in 225.9
i.e. we expect to average, over time, 1 in 225.9 blocks to be over 542%

Out of curiosity what is the actual number of blocks over 542% since the beginning of the pool? Including the block we're on now we have 4 out of the last 88 listed on the blocks page (or 1 in 22).

I only have the stats from when I first joined. But since block 141, we have had 10 blocks 500% or greater. That number doesn't include orphan blocks.

Thanks. That's pretty incredible. That's 10 out of about 2063 or 1 in 206.3. According to the tables Kano has posted before the CDF tells us that we should expect 1 in 148 over 500%. So at least going back to the pool's 141st block we are quite a bit better than that.

Well it's actually a lot simpler than that

The catch with looking at a single CDF line is that the data won't match exactly what's expected.
While we expect to average 1 in 225.9 blocks to be over 542% - it doesn't mean we'll have exactly one every 225.9 blocks.
Over a very large number of blocks (10's or 100's of thousands) you'd expect it to get close to 1 in 225.9

But if we note that the whole point of the CDF probabilities is adding up the area under the bell shaped curve and coming out with an long term expected average of 100%,
then you just need to check the longer term averages ... and yep they're around 100% - so that's all good

I'm adding 2 more just as soon as I get them another 22-24Th

The more, the merrier!   
Every little bit helps!

Just about the same as smelling a fart in a wind storm.

Or growing oranges on the moon

Sorry, but I couldn't do it that easily/simply. I would LIKE an S4 (or two), I'm piecing together slightly more odd gear ... 'cuz I'm odd and apparently a glutton for punishment.

Hey, don't feel bad. It took a long time and progressively moving up the corporate ladder before I could afford to have silly and addictive hobbies like mining.

[akadamson]

got all excited, went to the home page, and everything had Questions marks instead of numbers... did refresh and reality returned... lol

I don't feel bad about it ... I'm actually stoked that I can afford the gear. If nothing else, I get more dust.  See my sig.

Want to make a point re luck, CDF, etc.
Let me start with a point that long term luck is fine, I have no qualms.

In a more granular picture, if you started mining in May of last year, then you are "missing" about 14 blocks, give or take, which is about 4% of all blocks during that period. Granted, if you extend to one year, then you'll have what is expected, even slightly more.

As you can see by sheer number, there were much more blocks coming even a few months ago.
Kano cannot control how many miners mine here, but the result is that with a current trend of relatively stable hash, it would be difficult to 'gain back' those 14 blocks in a reasonable time frame.

In fact, going forward, you always have 100% luck expectation, there is no 'compensation' for bad luck.
That said, maybe he will have 110% luck for half a year, i would be fine with that.

In general, this used to be a much happier place, even when the luck was temporarily low.
Suggestion: need another 100-150 PH hash, pronto.

So we recruit then?
I'm in.
Point me in the right direction!

[A.Delaney]

Well I’m picking up 2 more tomorrow.

[fjtropepe]

I have 8 more on the way from Bitmain.

[Maus44]

I have 2 more S9's coming on Saturday, Just called UPS to give them my Tax ID information so it could be cleared.

Then I will have 3 more coming in the March Batch
