Nice job generalt hitting that block!  I just made the connection between you and your worker name gtso...I do the same by using a short version for my workers so it looks cleaner in the cgminer window.  That is a crazy best share!  It would have worked for many diffs to come!

What can be better for mining at Kano than General Tso's chicken?

Perfect!

can we go back to chicken sacrifices, like the old days? haha

Block by gtso with 52THs!  This is his 2nd block on kano!

Edit:  This block came just about 13 minutes before Block Friday starts...We are getting warmed up...

Always exciting to find a block!  10,000,769,538,843 share.  

Was looking at the stats page and see still only 1 confirm after 33 mins and got kinda nervous. Then looking at TradeBlock I see no new blocks in the past 33 mins - yeesh. Maybe we should just go ahead and find block #400047 to help out  

Well you can always check the top of the page unless you have the header in mini mode

Code:

Last Block
Pool: 4h (400046)
Network: 1m 29s (400070)

So the middle one is our last block and the bottom one is the current network block.
So 4hrs ago, for 42 minutes they were the same.

Code:

[2016-02-26 10:47:25.214] BLOCK ACCEPTED!
[2016-02-26 10:47:25.692] Block hash changed to 0000000000000000001c2518516f168996a5ca6c057e537a873b02d1e0b14910
[2016-02-26 11:29:36.151] Block hash changed to 00000000000000000167868074b528e3c2db1b9420e9375d07c65519ad74070e

That says it was ~42 minutes

[sorry2xs]

Well

[usukan]

Thanks for your answers everyone

and

Au contraire VirosaGITS

This directly relates to this thread on the question of if the latest miners are actually carrying the older smaller slower hash miners - and drawing down pool performance/chances of blocks overall.

I am glad to hear from the answers that this is not the case.

Cheers - usukan

A stupid question

If I have 1 x S7 with 4.7Th/s hash

and 10 x S3's with 4.7 Th/s hash total

am I theoretically more likely to get a block with the S7 - rather than on any of the S3's?

Is the quality? speed or whatever other better on an S7?

Thanks

others category:

electricity cost aside, you can have more options testing out different setups with 10x S3.   solo mining one?

10 x S3 will generate more heat during those cold nights.  
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1297331.0

electricity cost most likely spoils any leverage they have over the S7.

Start yourself a thread in beginners or such, these questions are going way way off topic, now. This has nothing to do with Kano pool. Send me the link and i'll bounce off any ideas or concerns you(two) may have. Just not here.

Will be a CKDB restart in about 40 minutes - when the next shift summarisation completes.
No miners will be affected.

This contains some bug-fix updates to the event code so I can enable it again and try just a few events to start with and see how it goes.
I wont actually enable the events until tomorrow though.
I'll update this post again when I do the CKDB restart.
(and post again tomorrow when I enable some of the events to test it)

Edit: looks like it'll be in the next 10 minutes

Edit2: ckdb restarting ...

Edit3: ckdb restart complete.

Good morning ! time to light candel ?

for the hashrate limit on the contest, is that a snapshot at time of finding block or is that an average over some period?

d'oh I see its the red line average from the shift graph. I assume that means its for the 5n period.

Actually the red line is the whole width of the graph - so currently it's about 6 days you'd have to be in the range.
But yeah I check it when the block is found.

I will make the block come.  I will horror of horrors switch off here and mine some PPC  for Fri.

[WBF1]

Well it's Friday here now. Bumped up to 500 TH on my rental. Maybe we can make it block Friday... Do eggs for breakfast count as chicken sacrifice?

it only counts as a partial sacrifice. gotta eat a raw chicken leg for the full effect.

Always exciting to find a block!  10,000,769,538,843 share.  

That is one crazy best share...61 times more than needed!  It encouraged me to learn how to do the math to convert a block hash into a share diff just to verify it for myself:

Code:

bitcoin@BTCNode:~$ echo "scale=8; ((2^256)/$(echo "obase=10;ibase=16;$(echo "$(echo "$(bitcoin-cli getblockhash 400046)")" | awk '{print toupper($0)}')" | bc))/(2^32)" | bc
10000922140804.80615949

Ok, so I don't know what I'm doing, that's a mess, and there is probably an easier way to do that.  I got some rounding errors back compared to what your miner reported.  Having done the math for myself, I now see first hand why the pool submits the "almost" results just in case.

What is the highest diff share ever submitted to the pool anyway?

EDIT: Answered my own question-- looks like it was block 343,387 which came in at 48,500,793,416,024.06962025

Ha! So true... But why make life easier when I could do it the hard way :/

Go block go !

i want my first block with you guys !


gl all !

Why miner working when we do not have block ?

any ?

gl all.

[VRobb]

gl all.

Your miner is always working to find a block, your shares get paid per the percentage of total when a block is hit.  Speaking of which, this is supposed to be Block friday, not Blank friday, so everyone put a little extra mojo in! Time's a wastin'!

[sorry2xs]

maybe a little chicken and mojo???

Hey Ya!

Stupid question of the year....I have been using BTCcore 0.10.x and am curious. Should I be running BTCcore 0.12.0?

Told ya it was the stupid question of the year!!
