Why is no one complaining about the 16 second block from earlier?

If you're implying that you had direct influence over the 16 second block, by all means, keep rolling.sarc

People complain about issues, not when things are operating as expected.

You really want to ask "why are people not give me enough due positive feedback for when things are running well"?  And this has been lacking, to be honest here.

Also, perhaps you should consider taking on more help if this is too much for one person.  You often state, I'm doing all I can, there's only one of me.  Which is ABSOLUTELEY true and correct.  Therefore, why not expand and have a few more people available to lend a hand.  Is there at least a steering group of sorts to think about the future?

I've stuck with Eligius for a long time now, with the hopes that it grows.  I'm still just hopeful.  It is the best pool in my opinion.  But it lacks in the perception department.  Now, if this is really a pool for "good 'ol buys club" (derived from attitudes of a few posters) and that's it, I understand.  My hopes then have been wrong.

However, I do hope that the pool desires to grow fast and takes steps to achieve that goal.

The pool growing or not is immaterial to it working properly, which is the paramount issue: the pool must function properly.

Pauses in payouts is fine with me when they're due to diligence to make sure pool funds don't get dumped to some and others left short. Delays in payouts are frustrating of course, but nowhere near as frustrating as mining for days or even weeks, only to have your mining earnings getting dumped to someone else and being left short because of some hacking or programming error.

If you control 100% of world calculating power, you get 25 BTC per 10 mins (average)
Now you ask yourself, how often you want to find a block and you will get appropriate percentage.
Thats all the calc you need

Theoretically, you will make exactly the same BTC over time mining solo as you would on a no-fee pool that pays out transaction fees (like Eligius).  The only real difference is expected variance.  If you see minimizing variance as a desirable goal, it is advantageous to pool-mine, even if you have a lot of hash power, because variance( pool + my hashpower) will always be less than variance(my hashpower).

Looks fine to me

Question

I have 3TH hashing power assigned to eligius, the Estimated Change:   +0.00679336 BTC, per block  it has dropped almost 50 % from where it was and should be.  Makes no since to me at all.  With 6th assigned i was averaging .025 per block then it dropped to .015 and the math just does not add up.  Seems every time a large mining partner adds a lot to the total PB to the pool our amount per block goes down the percent of changed in growth.

I am just asking and wanting to learn all this.

I suspect you have so many large miners our % of the all share of the block is going way down.  That there so fast they get the biggest piece of the pie.

I would agree with you but.  The following reason and math comes into play.

The more Hash rate the pool has, it still  has a max number of shares block.  The percentage of shares taken by the clients with the 400 - 500TH hash power gets a huge % of the shares per block.  So the more larger TH clients per pool has the smaller amount of shares left to the other clients of that pool.  Yes if the pool has good luck then more blocks are found but the percentage per client does not change.  That's what i am saying.

That fact will not change. 

And the math of Percent of the block available based on hash rate to specific client * 25 is the average earnings per block.  When i started here the pool was running 4PB now it is 10PB and the top 100 clients takes a very large % of the 25 BTC per block per round.  And even at the 10PB hash power the block finding luck has not been that greatest the past 6 - 8 weeks so my percent of earnings has gone way down, over a period of time.

So the value of the pool can get skewed very easily.  When the Pool is top heavy  IE a large amount of very high powered clients then the average person who does not have 6 figures to put into hardware, return in that pool is not that great, due to the % of available share rate per block.   IE The pool is Top heavy.

and here i thought the excellent today with just a meager 16 blocks
