Post by: dragon2nd on April 26, 2013, 12:06:04 PM
I just noticed that fc.dontmine.me has just found 6 blocks in a row:

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3600055/Screen%20Shot%202013-04-26%20at%208.00.22%20PM.png

At the time of writing, the hashrate of fc.dontmine.me is 376.29 MH/s, while the whole FC network is 669.64 MH/s.

FC has checkpoint, don't worry about it too much and fc.dontmine.me already closed registration.
New FC miners will join a new pool.

Quote
Registration has been temporarily closed due to the large hash rate on this server relative to the total hash power of the network.
It will reopen when the pool/network hash rate (56.16%) drops below 35%

Please see these alternative pools:
Main Feathercoin Thread (Most Up-to-Date, start here)
AltPool
FTC Pool / feathercoin is a geek
Feather Pool

Thank you for your support!

We're safe, the admin is worried as much as we are: his pool has open registration only when it's under 33% of whole network. With new Feathercoin miners joining other pools we're ok.

Decided to jump in as my usual FC-Geek is down - From experiance a possible DDoS, but hay that's a good thing we are obviously pissing people off!  8)
I very nearly wasn't gonna jump in as I thought your pool hashrate was =  2331.03 MH/s  I was like WTF? spread the hash man, spread the hash - Then I realized it wasn't  ;D, anyway - giving you around 1.3 extra MH/s
