hmm I guess then I'm surprised you're still here. That would take you back to the Nov/December time frame as we haven't ran 10 blocks a month since that timeframe.
A friend of mine and I mine here, I switched from Slush in mid Jan. *before* the doubling of hash and user @ slush, it took me at average 6 days to mine .01 BTC there. And luck at the time was closer to 100%. For me we just turned .01 in 2+ days here. Yes I know I didn't account for the 600% block. And that block was 165% diff. So I'm quite happy to stay right here and *gamble*.

about a week ago we looked at slush, btc, and here and decided this still was the better option even given the luck issue. What do they say "A pendulum can only swing so far and then has to switch back"

I think the other thing that people forget. A month ago, blocks were paying at average around 15-17 BTC, look at our last 2 - stuck right above the base pay. so that in and of itself is a 25% reduction in revenue that effects *everybody*.

Money is not what keeps me here. I believe in the bigger picture. Again, you avoid the question. How much hashing power are you contributing? Should be a simple answer. Guessing one S9 based on your statements.

I figured my reference to payout amounts would answer the question. I have 40Th/s and will add 22 more on monday

LOL. Your reference to turning .01 in 2+ days was what inspired that (which is far from accurate). I got you though. The way I like to look at it is simply this. This pool offers you the opportunity to gain much more when luck smiles upon us. As long as we are adding hashing power and brining new miners in we should be fine. Decentralization is power. Mine on fellas.

well, it wasn't trying to be misleading, but I see how it was... 40Th did .010296 and the problem was my days math - which technically was correct, but was far too misleading...

... but it was still better than slush

I'll blame it on the euphoria of finding a block ... lol. that's my story and I'm sticking to it...

HAHAHA good enough for me. Block for V-day. What is better? Oh ya, then next one right around the corner.
