You gotta time the pool is going down today?

How long does it take to solve a block on average?
Approximately ten minutes. Depends on whether the network is increasing or decreasing in size.
Nice reply

Thankyou
I should probably have written "On average approximately 10 minutes, depending on whether the network is increasing or decreasing in size.", because the variance in time take for a block to be solved is very large. It could take hours or seconds, but on average around ten minutes - less if the network is increasing in hashrate, more if the network is decreasing in hashrate.

So if I rent on WestHash I should just choose to not limit the hashing power because it doesn't make a difference in the chance i solve a block. due to the same amount of hashes?
The 'number' of hashes determines the chance of finding a block.If you run 10TH/s for 1 hour - that = 10TH x 3600 seconds or a total of 36PH
If you run 360TH/s for 10 seconds - that = 360TH x 10 seconds or a total of 3.6PH
The expected average Diff to find a block is currently 46684376316.86029053
1 Diff = 2^32 Hashes or ~4.3GH
So currently the expected average number of Hashes to find a block is ~2.0x10^20H or ~201EH = ~201000PH
Note above where I have said "GH" or "TH" or "PH" that is a total number of Hashes
Where as "TH/s" is a number of Hashes per second

Thanks just ended without results
best share remained the same as in the previous post so I thing I needed at least the double as
best share to find a block...
hopefully next week now...
good luck to all
Silly question within the same difficulty period does it have any difference that
you rent for instance 200 ths for one hour or 400ths for 30mins
I think it does not matter when diff is same. It is just a proportional relation. But from physiological point of view it is like 200 th for one hour gives you the impression that chances are beter because it is whole hour best share remained the same as in the previous post so I thing I needed at least the double as

No, you calculate the same number of hashes.
edit: and ofcourse congrats to the new blockfinder!

I don't think the answer is that simple, because you have to factor in the number of blocks you're working to solve as well. You'll have the same number of hashes spread out over more blocks with 200/1, whereas 400/.5 will have that number of hashes over half as many blocks, so twice as many hash calcs per block. Therefore you should have a better chance with more power over a shorter duration.
Gws24 is right, what matters is the number of hashes you calculate. The number of blocks on which you work won't do a difference on the chance of finding a valid hash. The number of hashes makes a difference.
EDIT: Note, this assumes there is no change in network difficulty during this time frame.

Hi all, just a reminder about the vps provider scheduled downtime for this pool which is due ~36 hours from now. Please have failover pools set up as the actual duration of downtime won't be known in advance and may be many minutes.
March 06, 2015, 08:48:47 AM
Congratulations to 1LjJJS3rbo91FEdbY6o7YoVEEwkEtb7WZh with ~120TH at time of block solve!
Congrats! First-time block solver on the pool, I wonder if it was rented hashpower.
Ok, my turn now.

Congratulations to 1LjJJS3rbo91FEdbY6o7YoVEEwkEtb7WZh with ~120TH at time of block solve!
Congrats! And with only about 1000x the hash power I have...
Best get renting, its the future lol
Roll on Payday as I'm starting to feel left out.
