Runeks, love your chart! Would it be possible to adjust your second chart, or add a new one, so that there is an overlay of the previous week(s)? Basically I want to easily at a glance see if we are doing better or worse then last week without having to hover over the line and count the days. Donations incoming after I get my next divs (spent last weeks on hookers and blow already) as I realize I look at your chart daily, and I have yet to donate to you!
Is this what you had in mind?
It shows that we were way ahead last week, compared to the previous week, but at about the same level this week compared to last week.
It also shows the interesting effect of variance, when comparing this weeks increase in total mining rewards with last week's. We can see it went faster last week for a period (the red line rises faster than the blue line), but that current week's mined BTC caught up with it along the way, which it should if we're mining at the same speed. In fact, if we're mining at the same speed, the lines might divert for a bit, but should always converge at some point, which is what we're seeing.
Good call about adding this chart! It's very useful for investors who'd like to know how we're doing compared to last week.
This is pretty much exactly what I wanted. I don't know if it is possible to add a drop down or some such thing to be able to move the "history" graph so you can compare week X to current week, instead of just the last week. Or maybe just have two charts.... one for "Best week" and one for "Last week" since those would be the two most interesting data points.
I will look into that, but I don't think the drop-down thing is possible with Google Spreadsheet charts (which is what I'm using).
Perhaps it would make more sense (and definitely be easier to make) with just a table where you can see the "Mined per share" figure for each week. It could be ordered chronologically at first, but you should be able to sort by column, so you can quickly see what the highest earning week is. I think that might make more sense than a graph, since you just want to compare this week to the highest earning week.
Either way, you have done amazing, and I found some bitcoin laying around so enjoy the donation! Also... you changed the link text of your donation link, but not the actual link... so in my QT client I sent the donation to your old address and not your new armory one because I was too lazy to copy paste.
Thanks! D'oh! Yeah I hurried too much with that one. Link has been fixed.
