15h 42min.....   

You're doing what most new miners do...paying way too much attention to the now, rather than the bigger picture. I did the same thing when I began pool mining years ago. Variance/luck/transparency/whatever all figure in, but I rely on hard, long-term stats. You're better off here than anywhere else, IMHO.

...and yes, it is exciting!

15h 42min.....    

..... there's always sunshine after rain.....

its exciting... and not boring  like at BTCC or something...  

I was on a couple of other boards when I first started. It was pretty boring there.

Here we have a wide variety of characters with a vast breadth of knowledge on this subject and many more that have some connections with coin in general. Along with expertise in many areas.

Additionally, the pool leaders are the main developer of cgMiner and ckPool with a an expertise in running a pool where everything works and is very fine-tuned. Unlike some folks who decide to run a pool just to make money, I do believe our founders and developers are in it for the benefit and continuation of BTC.

BLOCK as I type.

To make a long story short, we have a great group of folks on this pool, IMHO! Enjoy

Now let's start the evening block party!!!  

[wmabern]

That block should have about 5 payouts coming with it as soon as Kano wakes up, down under. LOL

EDIT: Actually, 6 payouts just appeared in my Bitcoin Core Wallet.

5 blocks so far with 4 1/2 hours left in the mining day. We can easily do another one or two! Make it happen!

GREEN BLOCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!

new block and payouts....!

Kicking myself for not joining this pool sooner. You guys are awesome! Wanted to support a smaller, non chinese pool, so was with Eligius for about 6 months after jumping off the antpool train. Been with you guys a month and a half and here's my luck stats:

Eligius: 77.26%
Kano: 105.49%

Thats pretty cool. Thanks for doing such a great job guys!

Excellent. Glad you made the jump and stuck through the unlucky days. We always come back after a drought.

Block by jotun!  Welcome to the Acclaim Board with your 1st Kano block! That is our 6th of the day!

GREEN BLOCK # 6

[wmabern]

BLOCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Block Number SEVEN with an hour two hours left in the Mining Day!

WE can do it! ONE more!  

May I have another, sir?

[kremit]

Block excellent!

Good job kremit!  Welcome to the Acclaim Board with your 1st Kano block! 

Hey, thanks!!! I guess that means I should stop lurking here and sign up for an account - boom! Just 33 days of mining with a single used S7, and it found a block. That's in the 98th percentile of the time estimated to find a block, at that hashrate and current difficulty, if my calculations are correct.  

Plans are to add ~180TH here in October. I'm in the Midwest US, where electricity is relatively cheap, even with 100% wind power credits (green's everyone's favorite color here, right?). So I'm interested in going in on a purchase of any new and improved miner hardware that might be coming out by then...

Congratulations. That's pretty lucky.
Yeah, if you sign up you get a nice functional web site with good info and statistics on it. No fancy bells and whistles that some pool web sites use. But I will take a highly functional and "lucky" pool over flash and glitz any day. Flash and glitz don't pay the bills!

Transparency is a big plus. You can monitor your miners using the Kano website.

Glad to have you here!

You may already know this, but if not, Go Under "Account", then under "Rewards". You can scroll to the bottom and see the date of your first block payment on Kano and also the total amount of BTC you have mined. Me? My first payment: 15/Apr this year for BTC 0.00004157, Total paid out from the pool to me to date: BTC 36.26676145.

Wow, wish I still had it all.

Mine Onward!

Bitfinex finally moving.

quick question do i need to use a different port on my sp31's , i just recently got them and put them on the pool but hashrate jumps up and down wildly on them , as much as 1.5th per unit

all my other miners s7/neptunes/s4's,sp20's,s3's and s2's all stay fairly stable

There's no difference for an sp31 vs any of the others you have.

If it's changing a lot, that could just be variance and the miner showing a short time frame for the hash rate?
On the web site, on the Workers->Shift Graph page, you can view single workers also, to get an ~5 day view of their performance.
Just make sure it has it's own worker name, then you can do that.

Another possibility is that it's temperature related and it's an overheat, cool down, cycle.
The graph should show that pretty clearly after a while.

Thanks glad to be here! hoping to get my hands on a few more S7s while prices are low.
Thats a lot of BTC, hope to get there eventually

they have been on the pool for about a week now , ill check the miner itself to see if it is heat related , if it is im sure i just need to reapply thermal paste to the heatsinks , thanks to spoons crappy design that alows the heatsink to bounce up and down on the chips during shipping

other then that im pretty sure its not heat related my avg temp across all miners is about 38*c

from first hand experience 38c for an sp 31 is too high and would constantly power cycle and also if humidity is high it would also cycle due to a lot of data corruption errors which are viewable under the events tab, on the other hand the sp20s would work until they practically melt down.

im not sure what the actual temp on my sp31's is i havent even checked yet but they are in the same racks as everything else  but 38 is what most of the bitmain stuff is running at and i know thats cool for that stuff , the only thing i have noticed so far is when i first power them on they like to reset 1-2 times and then they just hum along . when i head over to my dc tonight ill check all the status pages and see what they say

And a block! GLORYtrading cracking another one, huzzah!
