Hey... while waiting for p2pool to do it, I managed to solve the block by hand using an abacus and a slide rule... how do I submit it to the blockchain and collect my 25BTC? 
Solo mining?

Average expected results is 1 in 2^32 (~4 billion) tests and each result is checked - so no problem with returned results.Faster SHA-256 ASICs using carry reduced adders

The missed results will show up as a drop in performance ... and that's easy to spot also ...

I think a unison burning of old BFL singles is a good idea. Midnight EST.
If anybody still has the PSU that came with them the burning will be easy.

Ok... I think we've waited long enough. Somebody please go uncomment the block finding code so we can get back to business 
I was thinking something along the lines of sacrificing a virgin or at least a BFL miner?
I was thinking of sacrificing a goat but a virgin will be better.

Definitely some interesting speculation there. The author needs to hire an editor, though Faster SHA-256 ASICs using carry reduced adders

Sure, but I just read old luck graphs.
On the other hand... another week or so and a whole difficulty change will be missed.

At the end of the day it should even out to a little under 100% luck...

It will revert, it always do.
So prepare for s***load of block in next weeks

There's probably a name for that belief. That's what keeps a gambler throwing away his money at the casino "it has to get better!".
Remember past performance, good or bad, has no impact on future performance.

First time using a p2pool, Not going to let it scare me off, I have read a fair amount of good things about p2pools. I think we just picked a odd time to start mining in one lol.
