Hi all. Is having my miners off for 5 hours yesterday, ( girl came over to vacuum) while I was at school, the reason my rewards are down today on a per instance basis by .0007 BTC ?
Depends on what your hash rate is.
However, if your miners went off you would have seen the ~31hr ramp down of payments, then when switch back on the ~31hr ramp back up.
Your per block reward depends on your hash rate vs the pool hash rate which goes up and down all the time.

If the pool hash rate goes up, we expect on average to find more blocks so if all blocks were 100%, you'd average less per block but more blocks.
The reverse of course is also true if it went down.
The Pool->Graph menu shows you the randomness of the pool hash rate Smiley
Thank you @Kano. This is something I had hypothesized and was unsure about. Knowing is half the battle ( go Joe!)

Oh and I just realised I misread one word in your post Tongue
I read 5 days, but you said 5 hours. Oops.

~5/30 being ~1/6 ...
So in that case you'll have seen ~1/6 of the ramp down, not down to zero, just down to ~5/6, after they were switched off, then take ~1/6 of the ramp up time to get from ~5/6 to ~6/6 = full
Of course the overall expected result is simply that you lost 5 hours of mining reward ... as expected.
