Did anyone notice that slush's pool lost a lot of luck finding bitcoins today?
Pool luck (1 day, 7 days, 30 days): 53%, 94%, 99%
is this normal or this means that a lot more people started mining and the difficulty increased?
1-day luck can see pretty bad swings. All it takes is one block at 7-10x difficulty to completely kill the luck for an entire day. 30-day is the number that would indicate problems, and 99% doesn't look like a problem to me
