As a follow up to
my last post, here's a better way of judging luck:

the boxplots show the median, quartiles and outliers. The median (the line through the middle of the box) should be ln(2). As you can see, there is significant variation - but not a great deal more variation recently than in previous times.
Looks like new chapter on NPW about P2Pool is comming

I'm flat out like a lizard drinking atm so if I can make some time for it, sure. But I get a feeling that everytime theres a new p2Pool miner, or new data, someone's going to question whether there's some new problem with the luck. Responding to the same sort of issues every few months is a bit disheartening. It's a Sisyphean task.
