Block solved by me with my 180THs!  

thank you sir may I have another!

This one was on my account clg3rr for NH rentals only.  I had some serious doubts that those rentals could even find a block but I guess I was wrong!

Well that puts you in the block list for the month at least

... and I look at the last 10 blocks and what do I see ...

a 50 second block by us with 978.6 kB of transactions.

then ...

2 Blocks by AntPool/Bitmain.
Both SPV Empty blocks.

People, don't support them, don't buy their hardware and (certainly) don't mine on their pool.

I just bought an Avalon6 instead of an S7 because not only their support of cgminer, but their support of the bitcoin network as a whole.  I'm going to host the A6 and point it and/or my S5 here again soon, I miss all the block notifications on my phone.

Sweet!  Nice to see the blocks rolling in again.

I have a set of a6 modules I'm renting.  Whenever they go offline for a minute they either come back with %100 invalids or the pool blocks them. I have to change to a new worker to get them to work properly. If I reuse the worker name they begin at %100 invalids even if it has not been used in a while. I will say I have caught them on failover when I get a block notification and go to check the rigs so maybe that has something to do with it.  It has happened at other times as well.   I have another A6(not a set, single) rented which does not go offline so far it experiences high invalids and lower speeds than all other pools.  Default speed shows low result.  I have to set  diff 16384 or 32768(2)  to see any decent speeds.   Please advise.

See my post above.
No idea why you are having problems with them.
I power cycle mine all the time without problems and never once has a pool restart affected them detrimentally like that.
Make sure they are updated.

However, if you are pool switching, yes that can happen (invalids) due to the way they have an internal stratum firmware.
(Yeah I only mine here so I wouldn't see that happen)

I guess that could explain it.  It ended up a pool hop essentially.  The rig would go down and come back on.  When I went to check MRR I got the bad pool notification and it would be mining failover.  I switch back and get %100 invalids unless switch to new worker.  I guess the invalids are enough bad shares MRR shows dead pool.  I knew the pool was fine since all others mining kano.  Only time I hop pools is to prove a rig has an issue not our pool since the first thing owners do is say check pool.  Like I have the A6 pool on f2pool right now and its showing better speeds.  Which is why I asked if we had an EU server.  It may be f2pool has running 32768 instead of the 16384 I had set on kano.

... running 32768 instead of the 16384 I had set on kano.

Makes no difference at all to accepted difficulty and rewards, other than the bigger the number, the higher the variance.

Kind of been absent, didn't realize I had the lowest CDF! woohoo!

Where is the +1 or like button when it is truly warranted.

I do know my s5's have never found a bitcoin block in the year I've owned them.
Now i have a s7 pointed here, hopefully it finds a block for the pool someday.

The reality is that an S7 is expected to find a block every 4.7 years under the current difficulty. Think about that for a second. 4.7 years.

So sadly, no, your S7 is unlikely to hit a block here (or anywhere). And this is a good illustration of why most miners, especially the smaller ones, prefer pools to solo; a small solo miner can hash for months or years without getting any payout at all.

I purchased my first s7 in October and found a block in less than a month, my first and only block. sadly it was mining at anthole

EDIT: Hopefully Phil will do another group buy so I can weed out the antminers with Avalon gear.

Also, I find it odd that all the fear mongering going on over the block size limit debate never seems to touch on the empty blocks being mined. I even had a member of a prominent wallet company defending mining empty blocks. Seems like a lot of people have their own best interest in mind rather than bitcoins best interest. A wise man once said "..since we expect Bitcoin will last a long time, we don't do shit that assumes Bitcoin wont be here tomorrow"

Heh I was wondering about that for when we get to the end of the month
Makes it easy to know where I can contact someone who will be able to verify that is their address if needed.

Block by josephtran2!  We are getting back into the green 

[maxsettings]

Alright! Nice to see green blocks rolling in!  

Also - nice to see a block solved by clgrissom3's rental earlier today... Taking a little break from NH right now, but I'm thinking I'll go for another round before too long.

I have been mining for a bit and never found a block. Found block #601 with my lucky s7 with low error rates, it was a very lucky day for me, i haven't been mining here very long, i was kinda surprised, it got my day goin. so i'm gonna stick around on this pool, all in all, the luck here isn't too bad.

Luck aside, you won't find better support anywhere!

heh wake up Block

[Legacy2005]

another one for our 3ph mystery man. 6 total so far, he/she/them are crushing it.

The last 10 payments in my wallet have all come from Kano.  Wheeeeee.  I see we're getting back towards the green.  Keep finding those blocks folks!  I hope to find my first sometime soon!
