ZERO blocks discovered

[jdany]

Honestly,  I have a speech prepared for finding my first block.
However, I've been mining on pools for 2 years and never discovered one.

I look at every block discovered like the 3rd string punter looks at his Superbowl ring.

Just one before I die.

how much hash do you have, and where are you mining?

If you have enough hash just to make yourself feel good, just solo mine a crap coin for a day or 2 like zetacoin you will find a few blocks and you can feel better

Mine on test net... you'll find all kinds of blocks

I thought I would never find any blocks, Ive found 3 so far on slush and that was at 600MH/s, 5TH/s and 10TH/s intervals.

Really depends at what MH/s you run at and for how long, its all about probabilities.

I'm at 14TH.
I just want to see it happen - for real. 

I know i'm due for one.  I just know it.

Gamble!  Throw it all on ckolivas' solo pool.  Some guy just hit a block with 5TH/s or so of rented rigs.  Lucky bastard...

 Hé!! I'm not a bastard, just lucky

If you want to know what it feels like, just mine a testnet block or two. Sure they're worthless but it's fun for a brief period. Try http://testnet.ckpool.org , you'll be able to see your blocks on the testnet block explorer http://blockexplorer.com/testnet if you cant be bothered setting up a local bitcoind testnet and downloading the full block chain. Then if that makes you feel lucky you can try for the real thing on the solo pool

Well, just got my first one after over 18 months of trying - so you're due soon buddy 

Found on an S3 too.......

I found about 10 or 15 , but back in the day when the whole network was under 20th. I had 10gh.

 Compare that to now I would have  13000x  the hash or  about 130 th  .  At 130 th I would still be finding them 2-3  a month.


  But I can run only 6k watts in house  about  9-10 th.  and that is a block or 2 a year.
