Basically, when a block is found, all miners are awarded payout based on share %, and then their share count is reset to 0. I observed an unawarded block for my own address when running at mine0xbtc.eu.
To put it another way - after a long, unlucky block, every miner was awarded payout but me. As a result, my share count was also not reset to 0, although other miners were. This resulted in me starting with a huge amount of shares on the next round, and I earned a dis-proportionally large amount of tokens on the next block.
