My payouts have been MASSIVE.  IDK what is going on, but I am making over 2x what I did at deepbit.

Was making about a bitcoin a day at deepbit.  Over the last 12 hours I have made 1.3 bitcoins at bitcoins.lc.  I know it probably comes down mostly to luck, but damn thats some lucky mining.

Thats what I keep hearing, but damn over 7 hours and still haven't solved a block?  Just frustrating. 
I joined early, it took at one time more than a day to find a block. The next one was found in just 8 hours, so they evened out.

They do also have an IRC client on their site and there always seems to be someone there to help with any questions you may have https://www.bitcoins.lc/chat

very hefty payouts. at btcguild you would get a lot more payouts but they would only be .015 or so. thus it would take
several hours to get a  .15 bitcoin. for example.... to people who are curious.

at btcguild waiting more then two hours is painful... but then if you look at the stats you will see some
valid blocks in mere minutes. have some patience because in the end we will both probably make the same
amount of coins if fees are the same.

If you're going to mine for a longish period, it'll average out, and you'll be ahead to use bitcoins.lc, because of their lack of fees.

Yes. If you click on their 'statistics' link you will see they have solved 25 blocks since the site kicked off a week ago. The other thing to be aware of is its not like a larger pool (eg Slush's) where payouts are more regular. Bitcoin.lc is a relatively new site with fewer miners, so blocks take longer to solve on average, HOWEVER, as there are fewer miners, once a block is solved, those in the pool gets a larger slice of the 50 coins than they would with a larger pool.

As an example, on Slush's site I would average say +0.01144157 per block solved that could take anywhere from a few mins to a couple of hours or more. On Bitcoin.lc I average +0.15441573 per block. Essentially it doesnt matter whether you mine with 1 other person in a pool or 10,000 - the rewards are the same over time but Bitcoin.lc has the added advantage of 0% fees Smiley


You mine me asking what your hash rate is so that I can compare?

No, I knew it would be much longer than deepbit was.  Its just that this seems exceptionally long and I am trying to determine whether I should leave my computers mining overnight for this site or switch back to deepbit.  Just venting a little frustration.

i've seen times where even deepbit goes hours before solving a block,  variance is normal

The pool still looks a little small. Give it some time.

Does this pool ever actually solve a block?  Its been 5 hours and 44 minutes and still haven't received a single bit cent.  Trying out this pool because deepbit is buggy and continually disconnects and causes my miners to stop until I manually restart them.  Bitcoins.lc gives a little estimated BTC/24hr figure, and its about .15 BTC higher than what I could pull on deepbit.net during 24 hours.  Also there are no fees.  Hope the payout is massive because at this rate they are only going to solve 4 blocks a day.
