I found a block !!!

[DarkRavenGamer]

I have never mined but this must have been exciting, like finding treasure, how much did you made exactly?

Since I was mining with a pool, the block with the 25 BTC got split and shared between all the miners.

This would inspire others to try solo mining.

I would advise them better bet in a lottery ticket rather than go solo mining.

Cool....you're lucky, but its all right if you were pool mining, you can still pride yourself 

[mavericklm]

they also share with you a block that they find....
lotery is corupt, better solo or much better pool!

you made me check my miners and i found 3 bloks!
not!

Congrats on finding a block! That's super impressive with just a single S3. Funny how it displays the best share as 0 though - the number must be too large to display on the Antminer status page.

So how many of that 25 BTC did you get in result? How many people were in that pool anyway? Was it worth it?

Congrats for finding a block! But you have to think about changing pool .. Ghash.io is one big lottery

You get paid for how much work you have put in, with my mining speed I'm earning just about 0.05 BTC every day. You don't get anything special for finding the block, atleast not with this pool. Ghash.io.

Absolutely, I will just get it confirmed with the next difficulty update. I will probably switch to eligius mining pool.

If he still feel good in mining he have to read, read, read and then take a decision where mining is good for him, but now the best move is to change pool... doesn't matter where.. ghash.io is the worst one and everyone know that..

i agree it's cool to see your miner hit something.. but being in the pool he basically made the same as he would if any of the rigs hit it.. and then move on to the next

It's like to open mining company with 50.. or 500 friends and when you find block you have to split everything between everyone.. but now mining looks like that.. if you want or not..

ops.. there is one more option.. cheating.. but this is short way to win in this business anything

 short - because people already smell scammers from very very far..

care to expand your knowledge of "cheating"?
 I'm not aware of any methods of "cheating" in mining that don't end up being unprofitable in the long run...

No worries, I didn't take it personally . I just wanted to clarify that all of the methods that I have read about that one would label as "cheating" when it comes to mining seem to be more expensive than just mining "fairly". Unless you can predict the future or have a secret charm for luck, that is.

Finding a block must feel like winning the lottery, congrats

I'm a bit worried to aswering you know why.. ) but in short way - this is abouy cloud meaning stuff..

Unfortunately I was pool mining...
But still! One of my Antminer S3+ found a block shortly after I restarted them.

Has anyone else found one?

EDIT: I've noticed that ghash.io isn't paying as much as the calculators are saying I should get. I will give it a few more days to get it confirmed, but, any pool recommendations?

Did you get a bonus for finding a block?

[jdany]

Since I'm not in the club, I don't know how it works.

Does your pool send you a notification with congratulations?
Do they send balloons to your workplace and help you celebrate?

[bitkings]

CONGRADS It was really lucky that if you could find a block, too shame you were not solo mining...
