Glad to see the pools getting some of it's hashing power back to it!  Good job people, keep it up!  I'm waiting on getting my new PSU and wires because my ghetto ones almost burnt down my house so I can get my E9+ back up and running.  Happy mining everyone!

Thank you @Waztim @HagssFIN for the explanations!

Are the workers and your bitcoin address connected? I mean if you only use the bitcoin address 1KanoiBupPiZfkwqB7rfLXAzPnoTshAVmb, then you suddenly changed it to have a .worker ( 1KanoiBupPiZfkwqB7rfLXAzPnoTshAVmb.worker, will the work you did in the bitcoin address only will get transferred to the new worker?

Simple answer is the best answer here: Yes.

luckyant at 14PH?

luckyant at 14PH?

Oh hell yeah!!

Let's get a block or two...

luckyant at 14PH?

At 14PH I'd solo mine

I have 4 S9's on the way, last update is they left Anchorage Alaska 6 hours ago. I have tried to ask all the same questions or answer them for myself doing some homework. Also that 1KANO BTC address is just an example, don't mine to it, if you do, if it an actual BTC address, Kano will send the rewards to that address. LOL Anyway, I am a Newbie just like you. Mine On!! Oh, and HOW ABOUT A BLOCK FOR THE GOOD MINERS ON THIS POOL!!!!! I just sacrificed a Philly Steak Sammich, some fries and a Diet Coke for one!!

Current shares toward difficulty is 1,111,874,747,839 (69.89%). It takes time and luck. MINE ON!!! How about a 14K BTC price, when the pool hits a block and it will, THAT is a nice chunk of change!!

Still... getting a bit long in the tooth here.

Sorry for the newb questions.

Is that mean once at 100 percent then a block comes?

[clgrissom3]

100% is the expected block percentage but no, there is no guarantee that we will hit one then.  It could be before or after as well!

I think the  worst that we have seen is around 850%, so it can be 1% on up. It is totally random unfortunately.  Usually it is way more return than PPS payouts over the long term, so go for the long term and you'll be happy.

Okay, this is the first time I've seen anyone complain that we don't have a block before we even reach 100%

You know how on the bitcoin network, a block "appears" every 10 minutes?
100% on kano.is is equivalent to this 10 minute network wide.

So a block should appear roughly every 100%.   
120% kano.is block is a 12 minute network block, etc, etc.

Sometimes blocks are found in 2 minutes or less, sometime 60 minutes (boo....) or more...
Referenced as variance.

luckyant at 14PH?

At 14PH I'd solo mine

Well the 2 big players were saying variance at 80+PHs was too high

Currently 14PHs is 5.65 days per block ... but a 400% would be well over 3 weeks without pay at 14PHs

No i wasnt conplaining. Im trying to figure out how it works! Just a neebie.

[VRobb]

Well hitting a block is based on shares, and more precisely one that solves the block, but it is only human to want to equate that to time. The actual percentage of block diff submitted to the pool is what's important, and that will increment differently versus time as the pool's hashrate varies. For instance if the pool's hashrate stays constant than there's a direct linear relationship between time and % of block diff submitted (until the next diff change however).  If the pool's hashrate varies, as it inevitably does, then time becomes less of a direct measure and actual shares submitted to the pool are the more accurate measure.  
Mine On!  

[dzimmerm56]

Putting things into perspective.
We are at almost 60 hours. 60 hours is 2.5 days. The longest I have seen the pool take to hit a block is a bit over 100 hours. I am expecting we will hit about 2 to 2.5 blocks a week, maybe a bit more as hash rate increases.
Expectations only work over a long time period.
We could have a week with no blocks. Then a week with 3 or 4 blocks.
Patience is the watch word at Kano pool!

On another note, $14K+ bitcoin!
CRAZY!!!!

Thank you @HagssFIN for the very quick answer!

Thank you @Waztim for the head's up about the bitcoin address! I need to create one now.
