You're mining at diff 1000 and your best share is 462. That's all. You haven't found a single share high enough. You can either wait and slowly the pool will see some shares from you and lower your diff, or upgrade to the current official cgminer and use --suggest-diff to choose a diff for yourself - but either way it makes absolutely no difference here as diff and shares are of cosmetic value only when solo mining.

I'm solo mining as well (on de.ckpool.org) and just by reading this I wondered, would it make sense to choose a high diff when solo mining to reduce the server load?
