If your balance went to 0 then there was a cash out. It won't show in your wallet if your wallet is not synced with the bitcoin network. It has to download all the blocks. While you let it sit and download blocks you can look up your address at blockchain.info and you'll see the payment there.

Is your balance above your cash out threshold?

Is the auto cash out turned on? Leftmost column in the auto cash out settings.

iv added some more block erupters but when i start the client all i keep getting is selftest error's, can anyone shed any light on this? iv check all drivers and all my ports and everything seem fine in both.
 

Normally you can set submits per minute from 1 to 20. With the easy mode perk settings from 1 to 40 are allowed.

Lower values give your client higher difficulty. This means lower bandwidth usage for you, less server load for BitMinter, but higher variance in your daily mining income.

Higher values give you a lower difficulty. This means less variance in your daily mining income, but also causes more bandwidth usage for you and more work to do for BitMinter servers.

8 proofs of work at difficulty 1 are worth the same as 1 proof of work at difficulty 8. Both show as 8 proofs of work at the website. So the pay is the same, on average. Over time it evens out and it doesn't matter which setting you use (income-wise), but in the short run higher difficulty causes more variance in your daily mining income.

Organofcorti has crunched the numbers on this. You can read about it here: https://organofcorti.blogspot.com/2012/10/71-variable-pool-difficulty.html

I think the default setting at 20 is good. But some users have expressed concern that it still uses too much bandwidth for their taste. So now if you have an extremely slow internet connection you can reduce bandwidth usage even further than before. Other users have expressed concern that their mining difficulty causes too much daily variance in their mining income. Now they can get a lower difficulty and decrease their variance. But the easy mode perk is required for this because low difficulty mining is much harder on the server.

Sorry about the delay. Should be fixed now. Thank you for your patience

I will be bringing down the server in 1 hour to move over all the remaining balances and shares to the new server setup. Im hoping to have the server back up in the next few days! Thank you again for all your support guys!

Just talking about it , it just dropped at 36% 1h32m . Maybe next one will be also under 1h00m.

Should i push for more blocks ?

It worked!
