I bet you don't get this level of honesty at any other pool.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. I have never seen this type of transparency in any other pool, not to mention the level of support from the operators. It take's me a ton of motivation to bill my customers much less pay the bills. My thanks to you Kano and CK I can hardly imagine the amount of time running this pool consumes in relation to rewards. Which is why I plan on staying for the duration, because there's no way you're in it for coin.

Planned, still not begun. November 19, 2014, 04:17:00 PM

Hi all, that yesterday's update has caused an error in the calculation for the payout of the current block - no problem with previous payouts of course.
(see git if you are curious)
I've been working on that last night, but only realised just now as I was doing the payout that the change was incorrect for the new block.
Once it's fixed, I'll post up that I'm doing the payout.
Sorry for the delay, but it's part of the manual step of the payout that I check certain things and thus found this problem.
The aim of the final manual checks (and the last step, manual send) are to help avoid pool funds not getting to their correct destinations.
Once the pool gets bigger I will of course automate more of those checks, however, they don't take very long, and there will always be a final manual check of the information to help ensure it's correct - for security reasons also.

What happened to Proud Clown he had a ten step plan to becoming a bitcoin billionaire. Sad to see him leave so soon 
I was wondering the same thing... he was rather enthusiastic, and quite frankly his disappearance has me concerned for his well being..

Patience must not be one of the steps.

Thank you Kano for pointing that out. i could see my miners still working but didnt look to see where they were mining.
This is a total newbie question but ... what factors go into making a long 78 +hr block? Is it just down to pool size?
The pool size determines the average expected time to a block.This is a total newbie question but ... what factors go into making a long 78 +hr block? Is it just down to pool size?
100% on the blocks page is an average expected block.
You can work it out if you are interested
First check the current network difficulty ND - the bitcoind getinfo command will tell you that
... hmm I guess it wouldn't hurt to add that on the web site somewhere later if I can find space since it already knows it.
That number on the top left "Shares: NNN (X%)" is using the network diff to display the X%
Using the pool hash rate HR in THs, the expected time to a block is:
ND / (HR * 10^12 / 2^32)
So for example at 1400TH/s and the current (new today) ND of 40300030327.89140320
40300030327.89140320 / (1400 * 10^12 / 2^32) ~= 123634s ~= 34hrs 20min
You can also get that on my pool hash rate page I made years ago
http://tradebtc.net/bitcalc.php
Guess I could add that onto the pool web site at some time.

a certain operator of another small pool rented my hash for 24 hours, so I apologize for the loss of my 2.75 TH/s. I'm surprised anyone is willing to pay 0.0457875 BTC a day for 2.75 TH/s, but I won't complain about it unless the pool finds a bunch of blocks in the last few hours of the rental period .

Is it just down to pool size?
Yep, keep calm and mine on ... review your monthly/weekly stats (don't do daily) ... averages work out. The pool is gradually picking up faster hash rate.
EDIT: Pool stats are coming back up nicely.

And its back.
Just a shame it still says 78 hrs.
Yeah there was also an unexpected ckpool restart in there at the end so many people will have failed over to backup Just a shame it still says 78 hrs.
All up and running again now though.
