Hopefully they reconnected with a new demographic profile that optimises the superblock difficulty for Riecoin.

Would be nice, but I do not think Riecoin can affect worldwide daylight times... yet

One just needs to wonder how & what sort of parameters were used to estimate the first superblock difficulty before it took off. Had I realized the shortfall of the superblocks timing I'd have warned Gatra but correction is still aplenty. It's just a matter of choice, etc.
I don't have the big picture what's going on behind the scene. For that it's better for me refrained from asking questions that have adverse implication and responsibility in the Riecoin Project. I won't be pursuing this matter of optimizing the superblock's difficulty over the demographic at ypool any further. I've made my points clear enough.
To be honest it's tiring to see very attempts to make Riecoin Project worthwhile but only stayed in silence. I hope to see at least one of my suggests (2 were publically announced) came to see the light of day.
