Title: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: supervine on May 12, 2013, 05:38:13 PM Just started to mine this pool and waited to get some results. Look what I got:
# 18001 Date: 2013-05-12 Time: 16:34:10 Round time: 2:41:01 Overall shares: 23191072 My shares: 12006 Reward: 0.00675712 Block: 235854 Value: 25.41062002 Let's do the calculations: I did 12006 shares. Whole pool did 23191072 shares. It means I did 0.0517% from overall work. So I should get 0.0517% from the block reward (25BTC) => 0.01295 BTC. How this can be, what I got 0.00675712 - around a half from what should be? Who got the over half? Maybe a pool? Maybe other miners according to some policy? Hey, slush, can you explain this?

You were trying to cheat (or it looked like you were trying to cheat), and so you get paid less. There is no manual intervention and the system is completely fair. Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: Kruncha on May 12, 2013, 05:47:13 PM There's an issue with # 18001
check here, it should hopefully be fixed. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1976.8040 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1976.8040) K. Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: AzureEngineer on May 12, 2013, 06:10:04 PM Slush is based on weighted shares, you didn't perform a weighted calculation.
Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: supervine on May 12, 2013, 06:33:52 PM I didn't cheat. If I would cheating I would not complain about rewards.
I didn't hop. I was mining this block from start to end without stops. Weighted shares is make difference between mining in beginning of the round and on the ending of the round - for miners who don't hop and present trough all the round it should be very close to PPS - 0.0005176 BTC / share. Reward formula from pool: "(25 BTC + block fees - 2% fee) * (shares found by user's workers) / (total shares in current round)" This formula should give me double reward. And yes, it seems I'm not the only one to pay attention to this. It just underpay for the work. Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: Kruncha on May 12, 2013, 07:25:56 PM Rewards fixed ;D
K. Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: supervine on May 12, 2013, 07:59:12 PM Yeap, seems fixed now.
Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: tevayon on May 12, 2013, 08:52:02 PM it's possible
Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: BtcBling on May 12, 2013, 08:55:16 PM slush actually invented pooled mining and was the very first pool, so maybe use carefully those strong words.
Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: Kiders on May 12, 2013, 09:06:23 PM I have been mining on slush pool for arround a month.
yes there is a day now and then where the reward is a bit off or something but those things and every other problem gets fixed very fast. Keep up the good work. Title: Re: SLUSH is SCAM? Post by: digikaze on May 12, 2013, 09:31:26 PM I was gonna say no way slush is not a scam I mined there when btc first came out
