I have had 1 miner at CKPool for a few days now. Question right upfront: Would it be advantageous for me to name all of my miners the same name as the one that has been on CKPool for a few days now, therefore not having to wait 5 days to get to the 5Nd?

each worker can have it's own stats but is summed into a shift.

two weeks here now and i'm still having trouble understanding half of the shift page info to date.
because rewards are past tense, i can't visualize why it changes. it's meant for some pps type comparison i think.

on the reward page you get the final important numbers.
you will see an [N average] when blocks found (independent of workers) which is your effective hash rate.

somewhere between 3-5 days you'll N average will hit your miner's speed. just be patient for it.
you can't speed it up 5Nd without throwing in more hash than your miners can produce.

you can take "[Your BTC] x 120 / [N Range (in hours)]" to see an approximate BTC/day for the effective payout at any time.
(not the official way - you should track it yourself overtime).
keep in mind it will be comparable only to a miner at [N Average] hash rate.

keeping separate worker names can help you identify a misbehaving worker (though your local stats are there too). and when a block is found, the worker that finds it is advertised on the block stats page.

and welcome aboard.

Great Information. What number tells me that a miner has arrived at 5Nd?
