What's the longest block we've had? This has to be up there.

work wise this was the longest.

cdf wise we did a 99.99

time wise back in the day 35 maybe 36 hours in 2011 when the pool was much smaller. but I read that in a 2012 post when we had a long block someone wrote we had a 1.5 day block.

I am still not going to use cex.io I may split my hash half here and half with btc guild.

That's what I already do. That way, psychologically, it's not too bad when BitMinter goes through bad runs like this and I can still see some numbers go up.

Is there something going on with the site?

I haven't received any payouts all day today. The last one I received was from yesterday, and the transactions on my account match my wallet.

Thanks

There haven't been any blocks found today.

how high can the cdf % get? over 100?

99.999999999999999999999999999... just add more 9's but it can never reach 100% . the 28 hours time right now is one of the worst we have done in years.

What was the longest so far then?

Luck for this difficulty not including this block is 91.25%
If we include the current block up to now then luck is 81.15%

So hopefully there should be quite a few easy blocks after this monster Wink

just under 30 hours time!!!

There is something wrong with the Account Details table. It is not showing the bitcoins. Cry

Please fix this. This only happened since a few hours ago.

I think we do need Harry Potter to work this block... Undecided

I just contacted Harry Potter and he gave me a spell spray can of block be gone. I sprayed the can lets see how long it take the magic to work.

Hmm, looking at blockchain.info activity, are you sure you didn't accidentally spray that can onto someone else's block? Wink

oh No I misread the label it is a spell can of OUST Undecided

The last few weeks were pretty much right on the average, until a few days ago we had some bad luck. Good luck the last couple days nearly made up for it, but then we hit one of these worst 1% of blocks. Hoping for some quick rounds after this.

It's my fault - I got my miners hashing at a stable rate, then the monster long blocks came along. Sorry all.

Show me the way to the pool brig...

Ah, so the reason why my Bitminter balance and future fields are the same with no unconfirmed BTC's, is because there are no blocks being found. Yes, I'm a newb!

Anyway, the week started off great as I had mined more with my 80Gh/s than I thought, and today, seems to be on the same number as yesterday...

Are you sure? Because I could fedex some unicorn blood drawn at midnight under a full moon to anoint the server.

I don't know, according to Josh BFL used a lot of unicorn blood in the development of the 65 nm stuff, and that was a half year late. Might want to avoid.

Needs more jiggawatts

When mining you spend most of your time on unlucky (long) rounds. That's because they take longer. That can be hard psychologically as it feels like you are having bad luck almost all the time. When you find some good luck it's usually over in a couple hours, because lucky rounds are finished quickly.

Probability theory would indicate that this will happen with 1% of our blocks. Why do you find it strange? Over time all pools hit 99% CDF blocks 1% of the time on average.

Well 'coz we only really notice when we get a monster, confirmation bias makes us think it's like 20% of the time... though trying to negate that in my thinking, I'm still trying to spitball that it's been happening at about 3-5% the last few weeks.
