Title: Hosting 20hr Contest, Winner gets Sapphire 7950
Post by: Mr.V on January 21, 2014, 02:43:59 AM
Ok I want to host a contest and rent your hashing power for 20hrs. I want to Start at 11pm(PST) tonight and ending at 7pm(PST) tomorrow. Who ever mines the most coins in the 20hr period is the winner and I will send you a Sapphire Radeon 7950 vapor x with riser the following day. I will create and give contest full access to login to my workers pool account so you can monitor the amount of coins your generating. Each contestant would have there own pool account starting with 0 transactions. You guys will be mining a coin that is not even on coinmarketcap. Please private msg me if your interested in entering the contest.


Requirements/Rules
1. I want to have a minimum of 10 contestants to start the race.
2. Must have a minimum of 8mh/s for scrypt to enter contest.
3. Don't post how much mh/s your entering into the contest in this thread, don't tell other contestants your hashing power, private msg me.
4. Must live in the U.S. I'm only shipping in the U.S
4. Must stop mining at exactly 7pm (PST)

I will keep track of activity of the coins mined by each miner at 5pm, so no cheating. I will take snip shots of amount of coins mined by each worker and post them here where the winner will be displayed. I will send the GPU to the winner the following morning and give them tracking #.

If you have any questions please feel free to ask. I posted this in the miners section but I think market place is more suitable

Wow, 600 MH/s for 18 hours. I'd give 5 sapphire 7950's for that.

OP is retarded. Unless I'm the only one who rents my 300kh hashes

I'm not trying to rent 600mh/s from one person learn to read. Each individual will spend less on their electricity then the GPU cost. That's why its a competition for individual miners

With 10x 60mh/s you'll make a few thousand dollars worth of scrypt coins and you wanna give a measly 7950 (400$~) for that? Good deal for you.
Not to mention that with 60mh/s you could probably mine as much as 400$ or even more during those 18h.

Gotta be retarded to participate in this contest though.

It isn't the amount of hrs that would be reasonable... to be honest this contest doesn't make any sense at all. You are requesting users with 60mh/s of power to participate so they could "win" a 7950. Anyone with that power is more than capable of taking care of themselves and purchase the cards they need with their earnings.
If you are looking to do something with that card just put it up for sell for a reasonable price; stop trolling miners that have their own operations to look after and profit from.

perhaps lower power to 10mh/s will be good?

Try making it really rewarding, like this maybe:

10 participants minimum with at least 6MH/s each.

6MH/s is about 40$~ in 18hours which means that at the bare minimum you'll have 60MH/s mining for you in 18h that equals to 400$ (worth of the card).

So with minimum participants and MH/s you'll earn the cards value (Still a win), any added participants and MH/s will just be a bonus.

That way the miners get a chance to win a GPU worth 400$ by risking 40$ only and you get to, at the very least, sell your GPU for it's market price if not make more.

Win-win situation.

Yah this sounds reasonable  but I would make it 8mh/s minimum for 20hrs. I'm adding in a riser and free shipping that's why
