And they were very nice. The caveat is that padrinogtr needs to be able to understand it well enough to explain it. I think this will be a useful exercise for everyone else to understand and make for a fool proof method of explanation for future newbies.

I was looking for a way to pass the hash (not to be confused with hashish). Padrinogtr was having a hard time understanding it and it is quite the hot topic, so it was a good opportunity. That would have been 2 blocks under the contest if there were a winner. If it goes too long and I lose interest it would be a shame, but I would find another way to help the smaller guys out for fun.

Just figured I'd check if it's applicable to submit another way of explaining it that I believe Padrinogtr will understand and be able to explain...

Is that allowed? Huh

Whatever it takes. At this rate, I may just open it to anyone, but if they are over 20 TH/s I'll just reduce the reward to 25 TH/s. It may or may not be enough incentive to get the creative minds cooking.
I don't see why not, hash is hash and it would definitely open it up to more creative suggestions.

One suggestion; it's easy to get caught up in the full explanation of mining with the scenarios, but really we're only after the explanation of how the 5Nd works as that seems to be the hangup.
Maybe just stick to the difficulty and shares. I was wondering if it would be easier to compare an actual screenshot of shifts with some graphics or very simple explanation with the pictures at least.

Remember the goal is to explain it and have padrinogtr 's lightbulb go off to where he could explain it to other members with his own example. If this is just impossible to do (which I don't believe it is) then I'll get creative another way with the hash.
