Comparing your fraction of shares to Total shares to mine, there is clearly a lower value for this block, perhaps your rig or internet connection had some issue towards the end of the block

mining pool hashrate does affect your earnings as the 25btc block still has to be split by how many shares you submitted so for example a block took 100 shares and 1 user submitted all those share they would get 25bitcoin where as if 2 users submitted share they would get 12.5 each

Indeed, but in the case of two users, you would win blocks twice as quickly since the pool's hash is doubled so the overall earnings would be the same.

so in that case blocks should be found faster and faster...

the way bitcoin work is the difficulty controls how fast blocks are found by the network and hashrate allows even distribution among the mining pool that finds that block that way if someones putting in 2ths and someones pitting in 1mhs there not getting an even share of the block so if the 2th miner increases to 6ths he will see his mining profit per block increase and the 1mhs miner will decrease

Question.
 If the bitcoin network finds one new block every 10 mins
where are all the 10 min blocks going?

There are 2 blocks under 10 mins in the current statistics,
most of the others are multiple hours!

They're going to other pools (BTCGuild, ghash.io, etc). Watch http://blockchain.info to see the blocks being solved in real time. Remember that once every ten minutes is only on average and there may well be less or more time between blocks. Since the network hash rate is still increasing, blocks are being solved about once every seven minutes (on average) currently. See http://blockchain.info/pools to see the percentage breakdown between pools.

Your earnings aren't directly affected by the pool hash rate;
Seriously? Since when?

Since bitcoin was invented. Your earnings (whether you're mining solo or in a pool) depend only on your hash rate compared to the current difficulty. If during a difficulty round your pool's hash rate increases, then blocks will be found more quickly but you get a smaller share of each one so your average earnings will stay the same until the next difficulty change.

tonight the pool hashrate could be back up to 250TH.  That kind of swing in hashrate is as disruptive as a DDOS attack.

Why's that? As long as you're mining (and there's no evidence that hashrate swings affect the pool), your earnings only depend on your hashrate and the current difficulty.
Who mentioned earnings
This was a question about pool hash rate.

If your earnings aren't affected, why is it "as disruptive as a DDOS attack"?

my earnings are 1/3 what they were just 2 week ago because of increasing pool hash rate and difficulty increase. when I started here pool was 8 now were looking at 250... Roll Eyes

Your earnings aren't directly affected by the pool hash rate; they're only affected by the difficulty. Of course, difficulty increases because of the overall hash rate increase, but during any difficulty round, increases in the pool (or total network) hash rate has no affect at all on your earnings.

If you're only getting 1/3 from two weeks ago, you're probably just having bad luck at the moment. Difficulty then was a bit more that half of what it is now, so your earning should be about 1/2 (actually a little bit more).

Got it totally wrong. The hash rate has only gone back up to 223.747723TH

All my Block Eruptor stopped working 15 miutes ago for no obvious reasons ... using BFGMiner. Network on my RPi seems ok. Anyone else has issues with the pool ?
my rig is working ok, but I noticed a large drop in the pool's hash rate (from about 220TH to 198TH/s)

now at 176TH, looks like another DDOS attack or some server fault at our pool?!

Or all this weeks deliveries of miners?
When you take delivery, its out of the box and get hashing.
Then on saturday morning, shut them down and tidy up the rig.

By tonight the pool hashrate could be back up to 250TH.  That kind of swing in hashrate is as disruptive as a DDOS attack.

Yep I had a problem for 20 min long. 2 of my miners didn't have answer from the pool. Back working now.
Server issue ?
