And it was an uncle of a block. Talk about pulling teeth. 
Yeah, was a rough week for noobpool. Things should be better now. Uncles are such a low % chance to get, and we get one on our 3rd block, and at 175% variance.
Guys, can you explain me what an uncle block is and why it payd us only 3.75 eth?
(I am happy
I just managed to overclock the nvidia 1070s: under linux isn't a simple task...)An uncle block is kinda like a stale or orphaned block that you would see in some other currencies like bitcoin except with Ethereum you still get paid some. The normal rate for uncle bocks is about 3%, so the fact that we found one on our 3rd block is just really bad luck. I'm sure someone could explain it better. Some pools don't pay for uncle blocks, but that seems really unfair and would cause a lot of people to stop mining if it were on a small pool. On big pools you might not notice it.
