I just started mining on the pool1.eu.multipool.us (I am in Finland), and my hashrate shown on the website is 50-70% of the hashrate CGMiner shows me.
I also get lots of rejects:
GPU 0: 81.0C 3383RPM | 386.7K/378.3Kh/s | A:114 R:89 HW: 6 U:2.55/m I:18
GPU 1: 73.0C 3624RPM | 319.6K/303.1Kh/s | A: 79 R:63 HW:32 U:1.77/m I:18
Rejects show this message:

Is that some error on the pool software? Unfortunately I cannot see the complete error message from my CGMiner output.
- Bitmong
Yes, that definitely looks like an issue with the pool software. Do you know what coin we were mining when you got this error? |

Doing great work!
A couple of questions (that can wait till you take a breather ;-)
What does it mean when you have blocks that have confirms, but they haven't matured yet, but all the blocks on both sides have? Example: CAP blocks 65193 and 65195
Are you going to adjust the Round Time for CGB to 15mins like the other lower diff coins? Or are you trying something new with a super low 1 min Round time?
It's due to those blocks getting pushed out of the last 2000 transactions before they could be fully confirmed. Normally it shouldn't happen because I scan the past 2000 transactions on every chain, every 5 minutes, it's probably due to the outage this morning and it not being able to scan for a couple hours. I'll go in and fix those blocks manually. |

Please add multipool.us to the list of pools in OP.
Thanks!
Just a question aren't you messing coins up by throwing hash back and forth? Define 'messing coins up'. Well from what I can see it causes a pump and dump no value to the coin by doing this, if I'm wrong please correct me.... I don't control what miners do with their coins. If they see value in the coin then they will potentially hold it, otherwise they will probably dump it. Focus on creating value and there shouldn't be an issue with coin price. |

Shame we aren't mining global coin at this present time...
Globalcoin scrypt 60408 0.023 100 0.00000432 Cryptsy 2,806.08% 2,477.72%
Quite the profit margin.
barely 1/2 a BTC of buy depth |

When is auto-exchange to BTC support coming??
soon(tm) |

Site's up, one of the coin daemons crashed last night. I've been trying to catch those exceptions in the code but they are elusive.

CGB added on 3336. Cosmos will be tomorrow.

Just finally tried the pool today.  Also looking forward to the upcoming new features with selectable Diff and the exchange option. The cryptsy autosell api seems to be working so I will be switching over to multipool from middlecoin after the payout today for a couple days. Are you planning to add more coins in the near future? Are you planning to have more than 1 exchange? Anything else you might care to disclose would be great also. Thanks for the great pool! Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. I am currently adding Cosmoscoin, CGB and BTC (in preparation for the exchange feature). I probably will not offer exchange to anything other than BTC at first. |

Interesting  Makes me wonder why there is fixed round time and it just does not take all the shares up to the time when block is found (what is usually called round). see above ^^ |

Thats an interesting complaint because its what happens in a normal market. People who profit are seen as negative and destructive. The basis for plain capitalism is open competition and sometimes people lose money but the idea is society benefits overall even from the failure. Look up Adam smith and luddism, its why the Fed is doing the opposite, avoiding pain, losses, flooding markets with money and then in turn we are here with virtual coins, are we to copy the Fed creating free money ? Im slightly clueless why are these coins even worth anything, it has to be we are not money printers but worth more somehow Im newly testing out your LTC port trying to figure out how my cgminer's reported 1000+ shares comes out the sausage machine as an actual coin at some point. I used to mine on Slush pool and so long as its not going to return zero if I have to log off, I'll figure it out. I guess as the pool bulk is elsewhere the ltc coin is taking forever to mine, hence I'll get paid eventually even if I have to stop cg now You can view the time cutoff for each coin on the Pool Stats pages. That would be the 4 hour round time for 1 'shift' a bit like the guild layout? Yes, that's correct. The round time is like a shift. The reason we use time-based PPLNS is because the multiport miners can switch to any coin at any time and we want to make sure the payment is fair between both sets of miners (multiport and dedicated). If we use share-based PPLNS what happens is the multiport miners push the dedicated miners' shares out of the round rather quickly. Then, when the multiport miners leave the hashrate drops considerably and the multiport miners continue to have their shares paid for any found blocks while the multiport is mining something else. I used 4 hours for LTC because at the time we had about 80-100 dedicated MH on LTC and about 400 MH on the multiport. Now, we have about 750 MH on the multiport and 30-40 MH on LTC. So perhaps it's appropriate to change the round time to something even lower at this point. |

How do them bloody shares work?? A always get some 60000 shares in a few hours and than they start disappearing almost as fast as new are submited while everybody else gets hunreds of thousands shares.  The round time for LTC is 4 hours which means your shares disappear 4 hours after you submit them. |

Boxman190 raised one valid point: the reported LTC profitability seems too low. Right now, it's 1.71 on Multipool, while CoinChoose reports 2.29.
Is this difference due to the reported pool efficiency of 28.61%? And since we're on that topic, what exactly is pool efficiency?
Pool efficiency is the ratio of accepted/total shares. I can see why it's low right now, and yes, this is impacting reported LTC proftiability. |

Thank you for single hand-idly destroying alt currency. I have lost sooo much value on my portfolio because people use your pools to mine up a bunch of alt coins then they dump them onto the exchanges and cause speculations to always dwindle downward.
Maybe you should be asking yourself why the coins you hold should be worth anything to begin with. |

Everyone take note of this as a good example of how not to ask for help.
Your hashrate shown on the site currently is 9292 KH/sec. It's a 10 minute average so looking at it right after we switch coins will not be very accurate. There is also a 1 minute average available on the "My Stats" page.
As far as your payouts, I looked at your payout for the last LTC block and it was 0.466583 LTC for 339776 shares. I submitted 48256 shares and received a payout of 0.0669348 LTC, and my hashrate today is around 1350 Kh, because I've been testing PPC on one of my 7970's. (Normally it's about 2Mh).
339776/48256 is 7.04, * 1350 = 9504. So it seems that your payout (for that block at least), was reasonably close to what it should have been for your reported hashrate.
All of the payout details for every block we mine are available on the site, if you feel there's a problem with a particular block, please let me know and I will investigate.
Yeah, on *some* coins I get the correct hashrate. On others I get 2000 or 4000 or something as low as that - it's ridiculous. The fact of the matter is, i'm now 16 hours in, and have mined the equivalent of 5.8 LTC - which should have been 8, so there has consistently been scammed 1.1LTC away again. Also the LTC profitability stated on the site now is just plain wrong :/ It's not 1.6 ish, it's 2.4 or something. Anyway I'll give it to the 24h mark. My prediction is a consistent 1 LTC less than expected for each 8 hours, as compared to just plainly mining LTC at a reliable pool. If anything, the multipool-best-profitability should gain me more, but I think it's just a ruse or something to lure people in. I'm sorry you had a bad experience, best of luck on other pools! |

So, I took a look at the stale count function and found that it was using a completely retarded query (using a bunch of UNIONS rather than a simple left join) which was failing and returning 1 for every query.. So.. I fixed that. Stale counts should now be accurate.
So I was right! Thanks for fixing this Flound! We are now mining DGC and I can see that my efficiency seems to be correct at 73%. However the pool efficiency still seems to be off since it is reporting as 97%. How could the pool efficiency be so high while on DGC? Yeah, that query was off too. I knew about that though, just hadn't gotten around to fixing it. |

I am user name what on multipool.us. I can not withdraw my LTC. Can you trigger a manual withdraw for me? Or fix the bug? Thanks.
what ain't no name I ever heard of. Hot wallet was close to empty, I just sent over some more LTC. You should be able to withdraw soon. |
