Which Timezone? ;)

Chris, Steve,
1) I didn't get credit for all 90 LYC blocks solved on 12/1 -- missing 135,000 coins
2) I did get credit for all 101 all 101 LYC blocks solved on 12/2 -- Thanks!
3) My account balances don't agree in different views -- pay out eligible and total on lower right are different and there has been no payout

We determined the cause of the solo mining issue. There is a race condition in the parallelized code that confirms and credits the solo mined blocks, and because of the race condition, sometimes the code to credit miners does not execute. Steve and I have a fix and we should have it deployed today.

For yesterday's solo-mined balances, I know that they were all messed up this morning. I needed to wait for all of yesterday's solo mined blocks to confirm before i could change the balances, and at the time I went to sleep there were a few outstanding. I will fix yesterday's balances this afternoon since they all have confirmed. Once we have the code released, the balances will update in real-time as blocks get confirmed.
