Or we could just not allow changing the picks

As for the drop, I'm watching AntPool as usual and it had a few unlucky blocks. If a pool that has ~15-20% of network hashrate takes 8 hours to find a block it does have a visible effect on the charts and estimates.

I think anything within +/- 5% can be safely dismissed as variance. Even that huge hashrate mountain from two weeks ago (~ 50 PH/s) has disappeared now. 25% total difficulty increase in 5 months - we used to get that much every cycle. Exchange rate doesn't seem to be going anywhere either.

So we are doing quite nice  a -3 or more would be pretty good.  Thank you for your work.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Dead line is april 12th 2 am utc time .          

 Which is about april 11th 9 pm EST time.

or april 11th 6 pm PST.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It looks like we will get some changes from the high picks to a negative pick.
______________________________________________________________________________

As a suggestion I think the next contest should wait for 84 hours after diff adjustment to begin.
Then stay open for 84 hours.We still get to see 1 weeks of blocks made and the early rush is put off.
______________________________________________________________________________

I can see that  if we stay low like neg -2 or -3 or -4 percent all the high picks will switch in a day or 2.
A lot of work for me and a bit of confusion.
_______________________________________________________________________________ _

So 14 day period of a block set would be

3 or 4  days of watching no picks---------------- days 1-4

3 or 4 days of picking ---------------------------- days 5-8

then last 6-8 days looking to see the closest--- days 9-14


This also allows for  more spec time and less pick time.

I wonder why this drop has happened? guesses anyone?

Live sheet is back up (mostly) - shows us -3.73% right now.

Some things aren't working quite right (though I believe the standard difficulty projection is) - I expect everything else to be up by tonight or tomorrow, plus a tweaked experimental projection. Last time the experimental projection was decent over the last week, but I have some ideas to make it better.

got it thanks

your new guess may be a lot better as of today  you are close.

Since everything s taken, I have to go with something optimistic. -2.26 to -2.50.

Don't you mean -1.26 to -1.50

I will take -1.126 to -1.151

I'll take +0.26-0.5.

My apologies on the delay getting the sheet back up, I got caught up on another project. I'll get it up ASAP.
