I must be really lucky cause I switched to solo today and hit my fourth block this month.  Plus one on a pool. So stop giving the solo guys a hard time.


Who is giving solo miners a hard time?  Most comments suggest it may not be suitable for everyone, but I don't see a horde of posts saying no one should consider it.

Plus, with the change in difficulty it's becoming more attractive again.

If you win loto, you will convince everyone to play right?

I did switch to a pool thinking I was ahead of the game and next thing you know 4 days later I hit a block at a pool.  Now that sucks.  LOL

This reminds of those people who say things like: "The lottery numbers were so weird! Who would have guessed that?"

I assume you meant 3.8 Ghash....  Thash would be awesome though, haha.
Running 3.8 Th/s is awesome, even if it's not my own Smiley

Still . . . .  thinks about it . . . .  nope, not enough space.

For all you solo mining haters, I hit three blocks so far this month at 3.8 ghash.  Still worth solo mining. 
You should immediately switch to a pool. Do it while you're ahead.

Good on you, on "average" you should have hit two blocks, so you are +1.  I am not anti-solo, but a lot of people with only one or two GPUs would be at the 1 block every few months level.

(based on 6 blocks/hour, 23 days and average network speed of 8000 cf your 4 = 1.7-ish or one each two weeks)

If I bothered to run 3.8Thash which is roughly what I have if I set it mining, it would be costing me around US$100/week or a bit more, so it's cheaper for me to buy than mine, even if I managed to get 1 block a week which is above average.
