Yes, of course I was mining in SLUSHPOOL During above mentioned period. All miner just mine BTC

Slush, I'm pretty sure, merge mines altcoins.  So if you were mining only through slush than that could explain it.  Or if you are mining through Nicehash to slush then your hash rate gets redirected by renters which usually mine new altcoins for brief periods.  If you have questions about how Slush operates then you should be asking in that thread.

If you want to mine here don't expect to be finding 17 Bitcoin Blocks in 2 weeks with 220Ths.  This pool is a great solution for a backup pool.  Maybe try using the main ck pool with this solo pool as a backup.

Yeah  slush mines all of these:

BTC
NMC
SYS
EMC
ELA


maybe others

UNO  http://unobtanium.uno/

all of them are much easier to hit then a btc block.

I wrote the math for 17  BTC blocks to have been hit.  He did not hit 17 BTC blocks


Now to be clear  there are more sha-256  that can be merge mined and very often a pool  does this and keeps  the merge mined coins.  This is what is happening in Rasadi 's question.


or he had luck of picking 1 grain of sand from 1 trillion plus planet earths.

I think I will go with slush merge mines.
