Hi Folks,
I stopped my nearly brandnew S3+ miners at BTC passing 400US$ (S1 -> S3 selfmade Upgrade),
though I have 2 pay high energy fees.
With the winter comming in, it got reactivated,
and the better one (~478GHs) is participating in this S3 Solo game (the other @nicehash).
... after 16 days, I got a respectable best share,
{"hashrate1m": "338G", "hashrate5m": "434G", "hashrate1hr": "447G", "hashrate1d": "460G", "hashrate7d": "433G", "lastupdate": 1449149542, "workers": 1, "shares": 178751257, "bestshare": 749187554.6695118, "bestever": 749187554}
but no goal yet.
... I will keep it running for about 120 days.

P.S. I do not believe, it us useful to permanently reboot the miner - strong wishes do not provide good luck ^^
I'd love to see you find a block, since I'm also going to attempt solo mining once I get my S3.
I think 120 days is cutting it a bit short though.. Just my opinion.
