Leeeroy Jenkins!

OK so it looks like nobody mined on the pull request.  We are more than 1000 TX behind in the mempool.  Run away!

Many thanks for the support from those that did try the fork.

The pooled TX is just the number of 42coin transactions that have been broadcast since the fork.  Up to 11 now.  

Youngwebs is right of course.  This will continue to go nowhere quickly unless miners decide they want to see a reduced release schedule and start mining the fork.

There are a few clients on my getpeerinfo that do have version = 60002.  You don't need to add the node manually.

even though the actuall chain is at 499,037 Huh

We are a bit more than a thousand blocks behind.  The situation on mainnet in Mar. 2012 saw a further gap between forks.  In that case the newer version started out way in the lead but the older version caught up.  If we start solving blocks we will catch up.

Still unable to sync after full resync of blockchain, i make it too 498,329 and then recieve the following error and the wallets stops syncing.. ive tried with and without your new addnode

That is exactly where you should be.  Thanks!!  

Wallets are syncing but no blocks are found because nobody is mining on this fork.  Block 498330 will have a reduced reward.  The error comes up because the client sees all the nodes on other fork recommending a version of block 498330 which is invalid. 

Lets mine some blocks!!  

Currently 9 pooled TX.  Not a very active coin is it Smiley  
1005  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] 42 | + super rare | + only 42 coins to be mined | + Update b4 Block 55,000 on: November 25, 2014, 07:50:11 PM
Shouldnt the OP have been updated? this fork is kinda a big thing.......

<edit> Cannot update blockchain on new wallet was stuck at 498570 for 20 mins. Have switched back over to original wallet on http://42.latenightminers.ca until issue is addressed and more info is released </edit>

Block height should be 498329.  You might want to delete the blk. files to reindex if your client is confused.  Not your wallet.dat of course.  

There is nobody mining blocks on the new chain now.  I feel like Leeroy Jenkins over here.  Diff will go way down as soon as we find a couple.  TXs continue collecting in both forks.      

"pooledtx" : 4,

i think i got goxed in c-cex..
or just issues with their platform

EDIT. disregard... its fine now

Thanks for reporting here Salim.  Woodcutters, keep us updated on exchanges please.       
1007  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] 42 | + super rare | + only 42 coins to be mined | + Update b4 Block 55,000 on: November 25, 2014, 03:07:27 PM
UPDATE

I haven't seen a single new block yet.  We are 10 minutes into the fork. 
1008  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] 42 | + super rare | + only 42 coins to be mined | + Update b4 Block 55,000 on: November 25, 2014, 02:36:43 PM
So it will be some takeover here?

Ahoy mateys!  Grab your scrypt miners and get ready to take over!  It's ON.  Fork is LIVE.  



Get the updated source:
git clone https://github.com/funkshelper/42.git


Optional:  Add this node:
174.129.89.163
(should be automatic but you can add to 42.conf)


This should put you on track to start mining reduced reward blocks.  .00024 instead of .00042  

WHY WOULD I WANT TO DO THIS?  

If you want the value of a 42 coin to go up and possibly remain above zero for as long as another year, you would want to start mining on this branch.  You also might want to keep the coins you are mining and have them not evaporate: when the fork goes through, blocks mined on the "losing" fork will be useless.   This is a rare chance for those miners who are paying attention to get a much larger return in the changeover as they grab all the next blocks until somebody notices what's going on.    

WHY WOULD I NOT WANT TO DO THIS?  

You might just want to sell the 42coin you are mining immediately at today's prices and then go somewhere else.  You might be sleeping.      

WHATS GOING ON?

If you've never seen a protocol fork before, don't worry and enjoy the show.  There is no possibility of change of ownership of existing coin, or danger to block chain integrity.  Some of us want to see the reward per block drop to an eventual limit at 42 coins, and we will point our miners at the updated source to indicate that.  This is what happens on a block chain with any protocol change, regardless of whether it was updated in a main repo or not.  Democracy in action!  We are still asking nicely for an update in the main repo.  

    
If you are a pool operator or miner on either fork, please post some nodeinfo and battle stories.  Baruk Khazad!

Please take a look at the discussion in the github.com/fortytwo42/42/ repo if you want more details. 
The specific commit and pull request are linked earlier in this thread.

Oh grandmaster of bootyship I must confess that my mojo has been bewitched!  My blood on a contract... and then they threw shiny things at me!  It was the Minions of Magi.  I swam in their pools, drank of their wines, they treated me really nicely!   As it is written... a man may have eight cores to follow the eight-fold way, he himself is only a single threaded app.

I do however always point questing wanderers towards the forest.

One question though, one question that runs through my brain.  I somehow sense that I must find the answer on my own.

That question...

Does an Atomic Dog have a Booty Nature?



AtomiCat I sense the funk flowing through you.  
If you ask why must he, why must he, why must he chase the cat: It's nothing but the LOG in you.

These are noble concepts you drop on the funky sensibilities of the woodcutters and stackers.  I hope we can prove worthy.

Alts are still just arriving on the scene.  Yeah it is easy to be distracted with all the extras lying around but there is more exciting experimentation on the way.  Get ready for action the show is just starting.  
1012  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Woodcoin [LOG] Pure Skein, Logarithmic Release, X9_62_prime256v1 on: November 21, 2014, 05:59:25 PM
Some nice cosmetic updates have been contributed and merged:

1013  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] 42 | + super rare | + only 42 coins to be mined | + Update b4 Block 55,000 on: November 21, 2014, 05:36:06 PM
so - can we agree on 4 years?

If so - I'm on board and lets work toward a fork.

Sounds good to me!  Hopefully this will get merged soon because the proposed switch is now about 10000 blocks away (5 days).  Pool operators can already switch to my branch

github.com/funkshelper/42

I am running it live to be ready to accept the smaller blocks when the time comes.  
1014  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Woodcoin [LOG] Pure Skein, Logarithmic Release, X9_62_prime256v1 on: November 21, 2014, 05:14:31 PM
Some woodcoin trivia for you:


        PUBKEY_ADDRESS = 73, // Woodcoin addresses start with a "W"

With me so far?  OK, so in hex we have

         Bitcoin.Address.networkVersion = 0x49; // mainnet  // woodcoin

Now add 128 in hex and get your: 

   ECKey.privateKeyPrefix = 0xC9; // mainnet // woodcoin

Put it all together and get your compressed WIF private key prefix:   "W".!

So, woodcoin addresses and private keys both begin with "W".

woodcoind dumpprivkey <Wyouraddress>

will also print out a privkey that begins with W.

Woodcutters, logaddress.org paper wallet generator is now working.    

This will go online at logaddress.org soon, in the meantime you can grab the html page here and save it locally for viewing:

Oh great Dr. Funkenstein who has done it to us in our ear-holes, I beg for your answer!

I have been using the Skeinminer program for solo-mining but as yet have seen no wood-chips fly.  I do know it is reading how many blocks are on the network, hash seems to be flying, but given the intervals I've seen the wallet kick out logs vs what should be expected... Well, I'll leave it on for a day, but could you tell me if there is a version of Minerd that does work?



AtomiCat!  Hope you are getting down with the wood blocks.  Chopping with wallet client is recommended,  It hashes almost as fast if not as fast as the standalone chopper and a lot easier to configure Smiley   Setgenerate = true and your mind will follow. 
1017  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Woodcoin [LOG] Pure Skein, Logarithmic Release, X9_62_prime256v1 on: November 17, 2014, 01:43:52 PM
Block reward going down now pretty fast.

The block reward gets smaller yes, but the rate at which it gets smaller also gets smaller.  We are currently  still above 50 Coins per block, so LOGs are flying very quickly at the moment.  When we get to block 1 million, there will be 1 LOG per block. 

1018  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] 42 | + super rare | + only 42 coins to be mined | + Update b4 Block 55,000 on: November 16, 2014, 01:03:34 PM
In reference to HIppy Tech's question, I think it is the numerology which has attracted me to this coin.  I hate to see the number 42 itself sullied in reputation.  A planned reduction in reward to cap the supply at 42 as in my pull request is needed for the health of this integer. 

1019  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] 42 | + super rare | + only 42 coins to be mined | + Update b4 Block 55,000 on: November 13, 2014, 09:02:05 AM
I smell a soopy-hendo ! Shocked

Why the hell would anyone, with any coding talent, want to waste their time with this craptsy inhouse FAIL of a scamcoin ?

Good question, thank you!  
I offer not much time, and not much talent.  
But still having trouble answering your question Smiley

It looked completely abandoned.  Is there a do-not-resuscitate order?  

1020  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Woodcoin [LOG] Pure Skein, Logarithmic Release, X9_62_prime256v1 on: November 13, 2014, 12:58:09 AM
Greetings Woodcutters!

As we move forward in the timeline for Woodcoin, one of the next steps will be to add skills.   I have a team of dwarfs perfecting Smithing technologies, based on what you might call atomic transactions.  The first of these will be experimental releases, the idea is that this technology will be important in the future for a number of applications for example in decentralized exchanges.  To make a long story short I am looking for ideas of what to do with these logs in this project.  

For example, one could have a "cooking" skill in which LOGs and SPUDs are used to make FRIES.  

Another possibility is "smelting" in which silver (LTC) and wood (LOG) are used to make SilverBars (Huh).    

If you have any ideas for other altcoins and how they could be used with LOG in this kind of transaction, now would be a good time to let us know.  

Keep swinging those axes -   funkenstein
