Hi,
  are you sure DOGE merged mining is working fine? Till 12 hours ago I was mining in another merged pool and I was getting up to 1000 Dodges everyday. Now I got 15 in 12 hours with the same 11 Mhs.

 The rest of merged coins seems to have a similar incoming rate.

Yes, DOGE merged mining is working fine. We simply don't have a lot of scrypt hashrate relative to the difficulty of mining Dogecoin. DOGE difficulty has been averaging around 12-14k for the past few days, making it 4-5x more difficult to find blocks on than the other merged mineable coins like SYS, PTC, and ULTC.

With 500-1000Mh of scrypt hashrate, you would expect to find between 0.66-1.3 DOGE blocks per day, which means there will be a lot of variation in DOGE blocks at our hashrate levels. Its entirely possible to see multiple blocks in a single day, or zero for a week or more, depending on block finding variance.

The block reward on DOGE was also just cut in half to 31,250 per block.
