Any suggestion about random events causing blocks is actually caused by faulty memory

It's called 'Confirmation Bias' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confirmation_bias or in the more severe cases Cognitive Bias https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_bias

It's typical to remember outstanding events and not notice the rest.

Eureka! I've figured it out!

It's not the restarts that result in a new block, it's talking about the restart! In every case where there was a restart that seemingly resulted in a new block, it was also talked about... Including when we didn't actually do a restart but only talked about it...

You are welcome... I guess... haha

And I now have just over 1 bitcoin with that last reward.... its about half of what I expected, in 3 times the length to get to this point from what I calculated back in early December... Boy was I wrong... and someone sold a bunch of S9's that I wasn't expecting...
