I don’t understand one thing.  Last block, last month was found on the 5th and that was the last block found that month, no blocks for 25 days after that.  It was a block number 3 that month with expected of 2.56 and luck 117.20%.  25 days later when the month was over nor the expected blocks has changed nor did the 117% luck.  How did that happen and nothing changed in the statistics after not finding a block for 25 days after that?

The blocks page shows block found - the monthly table shows blocks found in that month.

Normally when the pool size is larger, the gaps between blocks are smaller - just so happened we had a longer time between two blocks and it spanned a month boundary.

The side effect is always that the first block of all months includes some hashing in the previous month, just this time it was most of the previous month.

Ok, so what was the actual luck for the previous month if say you found the block on the 30th and not the first?
A different value that didn't happen Tongue

The hash rate changes often on the pool (that's why it says 30-400PH) so moving those numbers to something that didn't happen, would not just linearly affect the result - it would of course also make this month look a lot better.
