Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 17, 2011, 08:09:30 PM I tried to register with multiple usernames and email addresses, all "Already existed". For a start-up pool it sounds dubious. Hi spammy, Having a look at this now. We had an update on the website it might have caused something to get broken. Will update you soon. Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 17, 2011, 08:13:22 PM Spammy,
All fixed, the issue was the username MYSQL query to check if user already exists in DB. Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 19, 2011, 08:44:50 AM Made some updates on the website,
Thanks Wayno from ozcoin for providing some fixed code. Now have live access to the Bitcoin IRC channels ! Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: Sukrim on June 19, 2011, 09:14:55 AM What's your payout algorithm? Proportional or hopping-proof?
Also who gets transaction fees and who (and how) finances the server(s)? Kinda the standard questions I think... Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 19, 2011, 09:38:00 AM Hi Sukrim,
The payout algorithm is hopping proof. We finance the servers ourselves, we are a ITC/ISP company based in South Africa and decided to host this for the fun of it, bandwith and hosting included, we decided hey why not join this effort and make some extra income with the machines just standing around. No transaction fees there is a 0.01BTC charged by the BTC client for the transaction though. We hope our members donate some of their BTC payouts as the option is available to them in their Account Panel but it is completely up to them. Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: Sukrim on June 19, 2011, 10:03:05 AM The payout algorithm is hopping proof. Based on Meni's algorithm?Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 19, 2011, 10:15:16 AM Sukrim,
I have no idea who Meni is and what the algorithm is, this frontend is an Opensource one from this Forum, there is two payout algorithms to select when setting this up. Proportional or Cheat Proof, I chose cheat proof. The frontend was built by Xenland, modified by simplecoin.us and fixes implemented by Wayno of ozcoin, they deserve all the thanks. All we did was put it all together and host it on our servers. Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 0.4 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 20, 2011, 06:53:49 PM Nice going guys our Pool Hashrate is up to 3.2Ghash/s still a long way to go but we are getting there.
Our hashrate has more than quadrupled in the last week. Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 3.2 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 21, 2011, 05:13:45 AM The site has been under DDOS attack, it is down at the moment for maintenance. Will be back up as soon as possible.
Edit : Site is back up but pool server still experiencing massive attacks. Will take site down until this ends. Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 3.2 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 21, 2011, 03:37:49 PM Server back up !!
Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 3.2 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: Kingpin on June 24, 2011, 02:30:14 AM Server has been down....but before it went down my shares were going up but my est. btc never went up. i restarted the miner and it reconnected so i dont think it was getting dos attacks like the site but now both are down.

Yep, trying our best to secure the server as much as possible. As soon as the server is up everytime the DDos attacks start. We have now put a hard firewall between us and the internet. Why would somebody do this crap ? I just can't understand their reasoning behind trying to kill a small startup pool. Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 3.2 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: Kingpin on June 24, 2011, 07:15:02 PM i hear ya man im going to hang in there, i like your site and i like the eta to find a block stuff you had up the other day it was cool.....i know we need to find our first block though.
Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 3.2 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: dcconsulting on June 25, 2011, 08:19:44 AM Hi guys,
Just some updates. As you all know we have been experiencing major issues with DDos and other attacks. We noticed some jackass used SQL injection to try and corrupt our database, they failed Tongue. Due to the risk to our users we decided to take the pool down over the weekend and work on some security measures to prevent these attacks or at least keep it to a minimum. I will update on this thread once everything has been completed and the pool will be up again. Thank you very much for the support. We are doing our best to keep this going. Regards DavidR Title: Re: [POOL] Startup Pool 3.2 Gh/s -= 0% FEE =- Come help us find our First BLOCK Post by: PandaMiner on June 25, 2011, 08:53:11 AM Damn, and i was looking to get in on the ground floor of a pool.

LOL are you serious? It's his invention, let him have them. Remember, he *had* 25% of the coins that were in circulation at the time the statistic was released. It's not a scam, and of course he's keeping it going. Thank God. But yeah, sell your video cards and get out of the game now.

Yes it really is *that* hard to stop DDoS attacks.

Could not find anything wrong with up, my stats are getting updated fine and shares is displaying correctly. I am using firefox as browser though please try doing a ctrl F5 while on the page and see if it updates your stats. The three different stats you see or posted : Stats gets updated every 5 Minutes and the left side bar is the same php page displayed on every link you click. Could be that your page is cached (ctrl F5) would help with this.
