On the NL node (only) the provider is doing network maintenance (to upgrade the network):

In ~29 hours at 2016-11-30 04:30 UTC for half an hour.

They say there could be short network outages - so during that half hour you may find miners failing over/reconnecting.
Since it's not a guaranteed outage - I'll leave NL pointing to the NL node.
NL miners should make sure you have a backup node e.g. in this case the DE node.

Seems we've just hit that half hour range ... and alas network to the NL node is failing.
Everyone connected to NL seems to have dopped off - but are reconnecting back again less than a minute later.

Ah most the mods on this forum are useless Cheesy

Apparently posting ~50 times (~40 times repeat posting the same post I deleted that's still quoted in full content here) isn't enough to get banned

So if you find a thread somewhere you don't like, you can do that and not expect a mod to ban your account unless it's new.

But ... the amusing thing that made me make this post ... a mod deleted a post of mine today ... from 2011 Cheesy

Yeah it was a pointless post that could have been deleted 5 years ago but wasn't (a smiley to someone else's post) but seriously that's beyond moronic ...

Geez...this block is a real unowot, Undecided

I'm guessing it is a coincidence that no block has been found since the pool dropped out a few days ago?
I've just joined and it seems i started in a bad week.

Since 11-3-2016 it has only happened twice that a block took this long... one was a 50h the other one took 52 hour...
Exciting stuff. Roll Eyes

Yeah the problem with that though is you are looking at the wrong number

As long as the pool is finding plenty of blocks every 2 weeks, every diff change, the time per block doesn't really matter.
What matters is the Diff% per block.

If the block is 50% diff then the effect on the reward is to double part of it.
If the block is 200% diff then the effect on the reward is to halve part of it.
Time plays no factor in that.

So in this case we are (currently) up to 470% - damn bad luck.

Of course, that's not unexpected, there is a clear set expectation for blocks.

Here's that table again

Code:

0.39346934028737 50.000% 1 in 1.6
0.63212055882856 100.000% 1 in 2.7
0.77686983985157 150.000% 1 in 4.5
0.86466471676339 200.000% 1 in 7.4
0.95021293163214 300.000% 1 in 20.1
0.98168436111127 400.000% 1 in 54.6
0.99090472289830 470.000% 1 in 109.9
0.99326205300091 500.000% 1 in 148.4
0.99752124782333 600.000% 1 in 403.4
0.99872735771441 666.666% 1 in 785.8
0.99908811803445 700.000% 1 in 1096.6
0.99966453737210 800.000% 1 in 2981.0
0.99987659019591 900.000% 1 in 8103.1

i.e. we expect, on average, 1 in ~110 to be > 470%

History shows the overall pool luck to be better than 100%, and monthly pool luck to usually be better than 100%.

Yep slow, long blocks happen, as is expected in hindsight.
Absolutely nothing you can do about that, it is expected, and of course happens on every pool

Wow! I've been away and offline for a few days for the holidays and just caught up reading the last 12 pages! So much fun! (Still laughing about CK's description of Kano. Both guys so talented and so honest! Love 'em both Cheesy

)

So what's up with this 44 hour stubborn block? We need some serious chicken sacrifices! Citronic, where are you? We need one of your famous images of delicious, spicy chicken Grin

Perhaps a rhyme will help?

This stubborn block is almost 48
Here's some chicken, please take the bait
All this waitin' givin' me da blues
C'mon blocky, blocky...baby need new shoes!

Good Grief!

I had no clue when I shut my miners down some 25 hours ago that I would shut the pool down also! Shocked

Since the rain has mysteriously vanished for the time being, I have fired all of the miners back up. Pumping out 49-50TH as we speak. Gotta ramp-up my speed on the "Workers" page, however.

COME ON BLOCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!

P.S. I do know that my miners being shut down has nothing to do with the block diff or time.

Short answer...no. And it will not be, according to Kano.
I suggest reading back a few pages on the board...there are a number of posts on the subject, and why the position is what it is.

wtf? news website published in russia : Kano(ckpool) support Segway) lies ....

Kano pool no

CK pool yes which is solo

check out the solo.ckpool.org mining pool board starting here. There is important info from -ck about that.

Precisely. CK has confirmed that as well.

The "news release" is simply wrong, but it is probably due to translation glitches. CKPool is the solo pool, not this pool. They share pool code, but are run separately. Kano.is is this pool.

The posts I referred to "back there" clearly show Con's position re Segwit, which is opposed to Kano's position. Both have their reasons. This is Kano's pool, and it is his decision to not support Segwit. CK supports it on his solo pool. Many (probably most) of us here at kano.is agree with Kano's position, but aren't going to "demonize" anyone who doesn't agree, as a recent problem poster (read as troll) attempted.

Dunno if that's helpful.

Yeah it's no point to change a pool because of one or few bad luck blocks.
Expected luck is always 100% and this pool is usually a bit over that.

Yup. It's happened before, it'll happen again. No worries. I've been here a year now, and I don't wish to mine on any other pool.

Anyone who gets an A7, I would suggest a change on the advanced web configuration page:
More Options: --avalon7-nonce-mask 26
It should speed up the hash rate ramp up.

Thanks, mate. Mine's sitting in the FedEx depot in JP, but should be here tomorrow or Thur. I'm anxious. The A6s have been so much quieter and stable...like you said, "no jet engine noises."
