Title: Shares reported by pooled mining less than local count
Post by: OCedHrt on June 12, 2011, 04:19:42 AM
Well, this explains a lot. Was wondering why I couldn't post.

GUIMiner's share count is not matching what BTC Guild is reporting.

For one of my workers I have 169 shares, and 2 stales. Reported as 169 (2). GUIMiner is reporting 173 (6), so that's at least 4 shares short. More so, I've done some mining before using GUIMiner and so I should have more than 173 shares submitted.

The same for another worker. I have 393 shares accepted, 7 stale (invalid) but BTC Guild reports 376 (9).

So is GUIMiner counting incorrectly? Or am I being jacked by the pool owner?

I would suspect a lag in the stats, not something bad happening.

I know there were a few blocks lost earlier today the the owner of btcguild had to manually add back in
you might want to email him if you dont see the totals match up soon.

Lagging doesn't seem like the right word. If I stop mining the stats reflect this instantly. Seems like some shares just get missed and needs to be re-added?

I emailed BTC and waiting for a response. I reset my counters to re-synchronize and just noticed that 30+ shares disappeared. 10 minutes ago it was an exact match at 48 shares on both BTC and GUIMiner and now it's at 60 on GUIMiner and 21 from BTC.
