Sucks. Happened to me a long long time ago when I was soloing with about 11GHs between a BFL Jalapeno and a few USB sticks. Saw I solved a block and a few minutes later it went into an orphan status.
Been out of mining for about 2 years now and just got a Spondoolies SP30 and a Terraminer IV for about $300 a few weeks ago. Not paying for power so I figured why not roll the dice and see what happens again with solo mining.
I've seen a lot of posts about rental hashing - and a few blocks solved... What's the secret? A dozen or so TH long term or 2PH for an hour?

I have been trying hard for this one. When i saw that my stats had reset at ckpool, I thought, "no way, this is too good to be true", so I looked at blockchain, and sure enough, I did it!!
I went yelling through the house, waking everyone, "I just won $10,000"
and as i was trying to explain how I did this to my mom, I saw it had orphaned.
it was rental, I've spent about 5 btc over the past few days

Okay This worked before so lets try it again.
In your honor of first orphan I will mine in your name for 1 day. If it hits we will split the block.

isn't this CKs first orphaned block?
Jacob
I'm pretty sure it is.Jacob
-ck will confirm that in the morning - it's almost 2am here
But as I explained on the previous page, it's also a rare example of an orphan that you can't avoid.

Blockchain.info is showing it as Orphaned.... 383073 (Orphaned).
I am sorryI think I will wait from now on until Con did the confirmed message....
Don't you dare! One orphan doesn't ruin the excitement. I get a kick out of seeing your insta-updates. I also think F2pool should be attacked with pitchforks and spears until they give over the block to 1Pwftn... SEIZE THEM!
But I'm a little biased.
Same here! Sucks that we lost this one to F2pool!
wmtomlinso, was it a rental or your own gear that hit?

Oh poot!!!!! am I the first orphan of CKPool? Can you get it back?
Nope, it's like saying you have to pee after you leave the gas station on a family trip. Sure, you wish you had peed before you left the station, but it's too late now and Daddy (the blockchain) ain't stoppin.
Sorry buddy. I know you've been after it for a while.
Good news is now you know it can be done! Keep on trying!

Yeah it was orphaned by f2pool.
F2pool's block was 5s later than the same height solo block.
But f2pool confirmed their own block and thus, since it is the next found block that decides the orphan, in this case f2 pushed out the earlier solo block and orphaned it.
At this point in time f2pool has 8 of the last 10 blocks ...
It's somewhat very similar to how a 51% attack works because f2 is so big.
51% means it's expected over time to keep winning races, but with a lower than 51%, but still high % of the network, you can do the same for a short period of time if luck is on your side.

I thought a RpI2 could ru it with easy. No?
I was thinking of setting up a few at various locations .
I was thinking of setting up a few at various locations .
It will, but the block chain size is getting to be the problem with running it on a Pi (it takes a 64GB SD card to run it now or it did).
Sooner or later, it's going to take a 128 GB SD to run, or a USB HD on the Pi. And I don't know how much lag time USB HD would have on a node.
same.
I even tried storing the blockchain on a USB HDD and it still wouldn't stay running.
People out thetre have a way to turn one into just a transaction verifying node (no --generate command I believe);
But that doesnt solve my problem of needing a fallback if CK goes/shuts down =)
nicehash has a solo pool that runs almost the same code..
https://solo.nicehash.com/
if you want a backup its something to consider.
That's good to know thank you for sharing. I've set it as my failover solo pool
