Well, the real issue is understanding when something 'might' be wrong. We just had a run of 7 really lucky blocks, a 112% OK block, then now one approaching 300% ... so yeah I'm not sure why the subject of "OMG bad luck" comes up on a single block after that run of 8 ... just look at the previous 2 blocks even
I think it just hits a little harder while the fees are so high and we aren't getting any.
This luck is starting to get painful. I want to hold out but it's getting harder as time goes by.
As the pools hash decreases our variance obviously increases and makes it even harder which only leads to more hash moving off the pool which increase variance even more and so the cycle continues.
It looks like blockmines has decided to move on for now which is understandable with the cost of running his mine these poor months would be killing them.
I think it's time we stopped slacking off and made a run for the bright green blocks, much like we did in April. What do you say guys - are you with me?
Same here. There's a lot more of us than people think, even with our ludicrously expensive electricity.
Here I was thinking I was the only silly bugger, I'm surprised at the caliber of the company close by.

I too am an Aussie miner - located in Melbourne. Feel free to shoot through any questions you may have.

Any one seen hash rates displayed like below? Miner still appears to be hashing at it's intended rate, the pool shows the same - I'm just concerned as it looks a little odd and none of my other T9's display like this.
You are really scaling up and it's great to see you supporting the pool.
If you don't mind me asking, where's your hash heading, do you have a hash target or just as much as possible? I'd hate to have your electricity bill, then again the mining reward would be sweet.
I'm just a small time miner like the vast majority of us here - but as we had such a great April it's afforded me the opportunity to increase my hash, increasing from 75 to 100TH.
