Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
2.5 TH/s
I did check, it alway says solo.
At my hashrate, I should be landing LiteCoins.

Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
How long have you been mining at that hashrate without getting a Litecoin block?
Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
Two days on and off. Why am I getting merged mining blocks at more than 10 times the difficulty and no LiteCoins?
My math tells me I should. The systems does not agree.
Something is not right.

Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
Because the reported difficulties on those blocks don't seem to match up to the difficulties of the coin networks. Viacoin, for example, has a difficulty of 585K (at least according to WhatToMine).
At your hashrate, I'm seeing an expected time for a litecoin block at about 5 hours, so if you're coming in and out of mining that's likely the issue.
Unless you're running for many (possibly up to 24) hours in a row you only have a percentage chance of finding a block. At 5 hours you have about a 65% chance of finding a block.

Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
I can agree to difficulty miscalculations.
When the Scrypt pool is after LiteCoin, about 7 TH/s nails a block in about 15 seconds (from my observations, maybe I do not understand). With that said, based on my speed, I must really have terrible luck.

Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
Where are you getting 15 seconds? I'm sure they'd love to find a block every 15 seconds at this pool, but that's not happening.
Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
When this number (circled in red) hits 7, and STAYS there, a block is landed in 15 seconds or less, that is from the countless hours I have studied it.
Maybe I don’t understand.

Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
The time for the last block is for the entire litecoin network, not for this pool specifically. That the network finds a block in 15 seconds or so is not that surprising given that it has hundreds of TH/s on it.
Re: A little confused? Solo mining...
I guess it comes down to math. At the speed I am running, I should get a block in every 4+ hours. I am not. It just does not make sense to me. During my run times, I get a plethora of merged mining blocks, I guess with the difficulties in question.
Like I said, I am just trying to understand and I appreciate everyone who has responded.
