I've been mining on a very powerful rig for over 6 hours with no blocks found. 
It seems others are reporting days without rewards - no pools is not an upside at this difficulty.

While I understand the sentiment, I disagree with the conclusion. Pools only facilitate regular averaged payments relative to the nethash. Solo mining will, over time, payout the same - but requires patience. Patience is valuable. Not only that, but such a small coin would have 1, maybe 2 pools. Those pools would garner a majority of the nethash in a very short period of time. Securing the network is a higher priority than giving in to impatient miners. Just my 2 sats.
