OK - I'm really not getting how these blocks are being scored.

For two similar blocks - on this block, I got in 115 shares in 2:18 and got .00032359 for it.

17770 2013-04-30 17:34:10 2:18:03 15697265 115 0.00032359

But on this block, I got in more shares (132) in less time (2:03) and there were fewer total shares, but I got 0.000 ??

17774 2013-04-30 20:25:35 2:03:23 14233698 132 0.00000000

it's all timing. here is from a CPU miner and 1 share on 2 different blocks ( mine )

# Block found at Duration Total shares Your shares Your BTC reward Block # Block value
17775 2013-04-30 23:59:52 3:34:17 24772020 1 0.00000369      233974 25.23872222
17774 2013-04-30 20:25:35 2:03:23 14233698 1 0.00000000      233955 25.34648117

I happened to be home to watch as the 2nd share was Near The End of the round ( 80+ in Current shares CDF: )
so, i'll take it and as far as the getting 0E-8 goes, I'm waiting on some 86ooGT cards to hopefully get out of CPU mining and get a higher hash rate.
this is a ' typical ' block for me when sooo many are connected and getting shares.....

17759    2013-04-30 01:20:57 5:01:48 34198356 3 0.00000000 233836 25.46175733

Not detered, more resolved and liking it Cool

just got back home and checked what the morning CPU mining did... total of 7 shares found, dificulty 1 ( max of 1.1MHash/sec when firefox is closed etc ) and find the following block is calculated ( and time showing last 2 of them were at end of round )

17791 2013-05-01 20:01:25 5:00:24 36782329 7 0.00000000 234096 25.58139100

normaly i'd shrug it off due to the over 36 million shares, this time i know at least 2 shares were in the last few min of the round

If you are seriously trying to make something off of CPU mining, you should not be with slush. You should find yourself a straight up PPS pool and stay there. Please take the advice to heart.

There is nothing wrong with Slush's pool that's causing your returns. It's working the way he has designed it. CPU mining doesn't pay off, so Slush won't support it.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to blast you, just saying how it is. It will benefit you to find a straight up pps pool.
