So my client has been running for a 9 days now. Yea! But I am perplexed. It says I solved a block, yet I don't see it in the list on the website. Am I missing something? This would have been my second block solved. I did see the first one way back a few months ago.
If you found a block it should be listed, even if it was stale. What's your user name and do you know at what time or day it happened?
If you are using BitMinter client, the Bitcoin symbol at the status bar at the bottom of the window shows a 1?
I have PM'd you my username.
Any answer to this? Which was wrong the bitminter software or the reporting on the site?
Sorry for the delay. It's this block:
https://bitminter.com/block/btc/0000000000000011aed14421280adfac98dceef3fac4c02d9dca540841c58dbb
The block was found in the middle of a DDoS attack and the information about who found it was lost. It shows in the blocks list as coming from "BitMinter". The mining server reporting who made a block is something that is retried only a limited number of times in case of communication errors (while pushing out the actual block and storing how much work each worker did is retried forever). I'll change that to keep retrying forever as well. I'll put on my TODO list for the client to log the hash of the block when one is solved - makes this kind of investigation much easier.
This is plausible and fits the time frame. Thanks for the information.

If you are a member of the Bitcoin Foundation, don't forget to vote in the board elections.
"This election runs until 11:59 pm on September 08, 2013 Pacific Time (US & Canada)."
Note that you must have joined the foundation by Friday, August 23 to be able to vote, so if you aren't already a member you won't get to vote.

1 minute?? really! Im not complaining, but this makes no since to me....29hr...20 hr...oh boy 1 min...
Sometimes someone plays the lottery every week their entire life without winning. And then someone plays just a single time and wins. What actually wouldn't make sense is if everyone would win after playing exactly 50 times.
is the luck REALLY this bad usually? is this happening in other pools too does anyone know? there is some very high CDF going on at the moment...
No, it's not usually that bad. And yes, bad luck happens on all pools.
We did have some really bad luck before and that time Organofcorti did a thorough analysis which you can read here: http://organofcorti.blogspot.com/2013/05/131-bitminter-and-luck.html

So RIP to my vpses plans?
They were dead long before that announcement, I suspect your confused with the units Mhs, Ghs and Ths to even consider this. Also I also do regard you as a botnet operator or leaser.So RIP to my vpses plans?
You realise you can donate directly to the pool via the donation page? There is a "one time donation" box.

2 x 7Gh/s Jalapenos ordered March.
September 06, 2013, 12:15:52 PM
So do I! Plus a Little Single in April 
September 06, 2013, 11:26:36 AM
I just added a few more USB miners and now I'm at 3GH/s 
Now if only BFL would get to shipping March orders. I know it isn't much but I do have a 7GH/s Jalapeno with my name on it!

Just joined this pool a few days ago. Has to be the most brutal bad luck i have ever seen in my mining history. Hope it changes soon.
