I also like Th/hr (average). But please don't take away any of the existing stats such as expected earnings per block, etc. Those are still very useful, considering many of us ONLY mine at BitMinter. But he more stats, the better.

You can still see how much you got paid for a block in your transaction history. Do you still need the prediction of what you might get if we found a block right now?

The reason I want to remove it is that it has caused so much confusion and invalid interpretations of how the reward system works. I want to remove stats that people don't understand and that leads to wrong assumptions, and replace it with stats that are understandable.

When people see they get low pay per block until they have mined 10 shifts, they assume they have to mine for free to ramp up the shifts before they get proper pay. That's incorrect and the logic is wrong. But the stats shown today easily lead people down this train of thought.

I'd rather have people look at how they mined from 06:00 to 09:00 and got paid X coins for that work. Then they worked from 09:00 to 12:00 and got paid Y coins for that. Here you see clearly what is happening. There is no mining for free to ramp up the shifts, and the stats shown do not lead you to that wrong assumption either.

I think stats that lead people to broken logic and misinterpretation are best removed.

One question on the new shift sizes... I see the current shift at around 3 1/2 hours; however the percentage shows ~25%. Shouldn't this be closer to 100%, given that each shift is now around 3 1/2 hours, give or take some minutes, based on the current pool hash rate?

Sorry, I had forgotten to update the score/completion display in the livestats. If you refresh the page you should see the correct shift completion percentage. You may need to clear your browser cache.
