concerned about pool xmr finding blocks - not newb
I scoped this site a little while back, and the XMR hash rate was under 40kh/s. its now over 100 with the shutdown of another pool. Here's the thing. this pool found a block on average once a month with that low hash rate. A pool with 1Mh finds a block roughly every day, so by that token a small pool with 1 tenth the hash power should find a block every 10 days. I've been here a week, and before that it said last block was found a month ago. so you have a months worth of hashing at 20-50kh/s plus the last few days of 100kk/s+. what is the current effort % on that. because it seems like we should be over 500%. (I've never gone above 420% without finding a block, but that's just me) also, does this site report orphans? (also they found 5 blocks, all 2 months ago, whats up with that. was there alot of hashing power here at one time?)

Agreed... Unfortunatelly XMR isn't the easiest of the currencies to debug... =/
Ill give it a few more days. if a block hasnt been found in 11 days, ill move to another pool. again, we should find one every 10 days. roughly at 100kh/s but in a few more days (10 days for me) we will have the equivalent of about 20 days with the previous months mining taken into account.
Any knowledge about how long Ethereum blocks take to find? I was paid out a small portion on 2 previous blocks plus a decent bit from an uncle block but now it's been more than 2 weeks with 1.2+ giga hash and no block. I like the idea of mining on a new pool with all its effort establishing new pool software and stuff but I also have my own issues. I need to format my OS soon and I need to go on a trip. I'm nervous I will miss out my block rewards if I go offline for a few days...
you wont lose anything. Your shares will atill count against the total and you will still get a payout to your wallet (as long as its over the payout threshold)
