But I have no idea how shares and rewards are calculated. It seems sometimes I have over 2000 shares and slightly over .001 rewards and sometimes I can have as little as 11 shares and have over .002 reward. And since I don't really know how the stuff works... I just sit back and watch it happen.

Looks like the new metrics haven't caught this new block 235160. I noticed the scores were reset about 5 mins before the end of the round...

And I think that Slush is on holidays since he didn't posted nothing in some time...

I have pm'd him my post - he may catch it in time...

During rounds 17736 and 17737 there were issues with counting shares on one of nine backends. Before I noticed it and corrected it, pool found these blocks. So this time I don't have any data to recalculate and fix these two rounds, I'm sorry Sad. I already added new metrics to monitoring system to prevent this to happen next time.

Looks like the new metrics haven't caught this new block 235160. I noticed the scores were reset about 5 mins before the end of the round...

Ditto here.  This performance has usually been good for around .0007 BTC in a block this long, but there are an extra 4 decimals this time making it  1/10,000 of expected.

Yeah, looks like something is up.  It should have righted itself by now if it was going to...

Seems to be an issue here.  From my calculations, 1784 / 11634278 * 25.21733124 = 0.003866825163724, not .00000048

What's the deal?

Give it time....

Wait at least a half hour after a block before complaining about your reward please.

I see.  I thought it stayed in "Processing" until it was done, and then what you saw is what you got.  I don't mind being patient, just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.  I saw an invalid block earlier, thought maybe this was some kind of adjustment.

Thanks for the quick response.

Many of us face the same situation with this block. This has happen quite a few times, most of the cases when the score reset is immediately before / very close to the end of the round. Slush has taken care of this, so on one side I agree - give it time, however, a timely notice will allow our pool master to take action in time, meaning before the block gets confirmed. He told that it is much harder to issue adjustments once the block is confirmed.

Cheers,

The rewards get calculated at certain intervals throughout an hour.  If backend processing is still working when the rewards are calculated then they may not be correct until they get around to the next interval.

I've seen the rewards change a couple times throughout an hour...

This is a copy paste from Bitparking:

NMC is 0.00915001 BTC per NMC at Vircurex, we earn 221.383927344 NMC per bitcoin block = 2.02566514904 BTC or 8.1% additional BTC per block
IXC is 0.000189 BTC per IXC at Vircurex, we earn 7036.7594417 IXC per bitcoin block = 1.32994753448 BTC or 5.32% additional BTC per block
DVC is 2.08e-06 BTC per DVC at Vircurex, we earn 366497.887589 DVC per bitcoin block = 0.762315606184 BTC or 3.05% additional BTC per block
Total extra BTC per block is 4.1179282897 or 16.47% extra income

Now tell me that this isn't something you would like to have...

So, using numbers from my previous example - 17BTC + 16% bonus (~3BTC) = 20BTC equivalent for Bitminter vs 25BTC + no bonus for Slush ...

Given that tough choice ... I think I'd rather stay with Slush and skip the "bonus".

Your previous example is flawed.  As I said after your previous example, the math isn't correct.  You are showing an example of luck.  If Slush woul have had merged mining, his btc count would have been the same.  In fact any currency he would have been mining would have been just as lucky.  

When you are mining on a pool that does merged mining, and you submit 1 share, that share gets counted toward all currencies being mined.  ALL WORK GETS COUNTED TOWARD ALL CURRENCIES.

So, based on the above example, the math shows that Bitminter would have 17btc + a 16% bonus = 20btc.  Then Slush would also have 25btc + a 16% bonus (if he was doing all the same currencies) = 29 btc.  The luck that got him more btc, would also get him more of the other currencies.

And it can work just the opposite, if Slush has bad luck an bitminter has good luck.
