The 12 hour and invalid blocks are a test.
They tempt you go elsewhere, hoping you
will do better.
There is no pool, anywhere, that has all
good days. Math just does not work that
way.
well if that was true wwii would have ended differently. don't confuse luck as in slot machines with math. if math worked this way we would never have put a man on the moon in the 60's.
There are different kinds of math. Probability and Algebra live in different worlds.
Algebra puts men on the moon, Probability wins the lottery. Sometimes.
Probability is a form of calculable math, when working with probability algebra is often used to display a formula.
Probability wins blackjack, luck wins lottery.
Sounds like you know math better than me, I was a Philosophy major.
Does it change anything in regards to pool hopping?
You could do a probability on pool luck based on all the previous rounds, but solving a block comes down to luck > hash power, not very accurate unlike with counting cards which has a set amount of variables each hand, vardiff is suppose to stop pool hopping, I reckon there would be people out there jumping onto pools at near end of round, to make that work it would be a full time job. There really is no predictable end to a round.
