Interesting idea but you generally dont want to change the rules of a contest in the middle (especially after someone already received a reward).
February 01, 2016, 10:45:09 AM
Kano, why don't you make it the highest CDF for the month with the same hash ranges? Reward the person who saves us from the longest lack of luck!!
This is not my pool or contest,but it is a very interesting twist.
My main pc is back online.
So I won't be posting with my judypug1956 account.
But I have to say your idea is different.

Haven't completely decided yet, but next time it will probably be the best (lowest) CDF for the whole month 
I like the lowest CDF for the month to determine...that would keep the excitement and suspense going through the whole month. Old geezers like me need that extra excitement to keep from banging my head on the keyboard every time I fall asleep sitting in front of the computer!

I think it is very convenient to rent power just to win an Avalon,
because in the end, to win you must have at least a avalon 2 ph / s
and not even be sure to find a block,
for what if you spend on rent, it's quicker to buy new right?
correct me if I'm wrong
Here, here. I rented like 150ths for 3-4 hours for the contest (lol sorry guys, but my antminer s7 has too little of a chance). at a pretty good price too. So I have a little chance of winning the prize, and if I dont, in any case, I'll probably get close to what I spent, maybe more. Last month I rented for 0.06btc of hashing power for the contest, and got 0.065btc back or something like that. depends on luck.

any suggestion on how to quickly add my subtotal BTC earnings for January here at kano.is
Copy and paste rewards page data into spreadsheet (excel worked for me) and add the last column.

you are wrong. do you want a long explanation ?

it seems that people have finished rent hashrate

There is no guarantee of finding a block with 2ph or 5th. Yes the odds maybe in your favour so you are more likely but luck can change this. Yes people will rent hash for the contest and hopefully they are doing that part just for fun. However... if they are renting hash rate at a good low price, then if pool luck is good this could actually earn them more BTC from pool payments than they paid for renting.
Also nobody can win with more than 250th average as this is the limit set by kano. and the winner of this months Avalon has a total of about ~50th

rather you win or not, we all get paid 
Congrats kilowatt! Now, let's find some more!

Congratulations kilowatt!!
I woke up to see the block hadn't been found yet and was considering renting some more hash for this. Then the normal morning chaos with kids kept me busy... By the time I was able to warm up some chicken nuggets for breakfast and rent a bit more hashpower the block was was found.
Renting hash for the first time in order to get my average high enough was an easy, painless and perhaps almost pleasant experience. It could be that the rented hash pays for itself in the next few blocks.
I had received some bitfury h-cards and m-boards from a friend recently. The lottery was the perfect incentive to get the stuff up and running to upgrade my modest mining / heating setup. If I don't start mining more than 300 GH/s, my rewards will surely enter the dust category that are waiting to be paid eventually. While not difficult to set up, it's clear that a full set of h-cards will need a bit better power supply than one can salvage from an old PC so it is not up to full capacity yet.
Next, month, I should have no problem beating the average with own hardware.

It's more a case of: OK that was quick 6hrs and it's all over 
Make it more interesting if it lasts longer

Yeah longer is better as it keeps the fun going. I woke up and saw a block notification and thought "oh that was quick and contest over" although I was hoping it was either myself (unlikely) or one of the big boys just to keep it going a little longer. Guess that was likely to happen as I think that block was over 100% before the contest started. Lowest CDF seems like a good way as this will allow anyone to join the race and take pole position.
And congrats to kilowatt

Let's hope he's no longer grumpy about the pool
Well that's funny I got the usernames mixed up ...
Though I'm wondering how I could possibly confuse bitwitt with kilowatt ... oh well ... I'll just pretend I'm getting old and senile
February 01, 2016, 02:59:56 AM
Nah, I don't think the rash rate is an issue - most of the big miners aren't trying to win an avalon, they are simply doing well from our good luck for the past few months ... and hoping it continues

Pointed my S3+ solo lottery machine here for the Avalon contest, too much fun to pass up on.
Good luck.
Good luck.
Well that was fast, looks like kilowatt won the month already, congrats! Back to solo mining until March.
Should make it where they have a monthly average requirement, so people who are dedicated mining at kano.is could qualify, it should help with people not just mining towards the end of the month to ramp up their 5nd to win the Avalon, and then leave else where after someone has won, which is why i think the hash jumped to 20ph. Nothing is wrong with that, just saying make the requirements for those people that are in here for the long haul and supporting kano.is, not just a short burst to win that Avalon and bounce after someone has won and repeat for the next couple of months =)
