Just looking back through the block explorer and Hardcore's block stats it appears to me that the new diff algo in it's current form has not worked. The only blocks that Hardcore are finding are the high diff blocks every hour or two which then opens the flood gate for Clevermining to rape the coin, leave, rinse and repeat.
I've mined NLG on and off since day 1 but I haven't mined it for weeks due to the diff adjustment problems and frankly, the recent algo change appears to not have made one iota of difference. This is a shame as I saw huge potential in this coin. How are your merchants going to be able to accept the coin if it takes over an hour for one confirmation?
