CNC CHNCoin Simple Pool

PPLNS with N set to around 10 blocks worth of shares

1% fee, payout after 120 confirms

http://cnc.dontmine.me

Runs Stratum and Longpolling

cgminer -o stratum+tcp://minecnc.dontmine.me:33334
cgminer -o http://minecnc.dontmine.me:38339

Current workserver proxy listing, order of failover is preferred:
stratum+tcp://minecnc.dontmine.me:3333
http://minecnc.dontmine.me:38339
http://cnc.dontmine.me:8080
stratum+tcp://minecnc2.dontmine.me:33334
http://minecnc2.dontmine.me:38339


A config example is here: http://cnc.dontmine.me/misc/cgminer.txt

I'll add and remove extra servers as they become necessary or no longer work. All of the work is going to the same exact place, so the shares are all counted together in the same pool.

Consider using --queue 0 --expiry 1 and lowering intensity during the fast-blocking phase of CNC to reduce stales

New server has DDoS mitigation. We'll see how long it lasts!
Happy Mining!

I've got a competitor up at http://chn.dontmine.me:9999/

Running on a backup machine so don't expect too much, but it seems to be paying me okay.

Is there demand for a mmcfe/PPLNS pool still? I can hack one together if people are interested.

I can't find the source code. The git hub doesn't have it, the sourceforge doesn't have it, so I'm staying away.

I've only had successful exchanges there, but the site is still annoying with glitches. The chatbox bounces around (not that important) and a lot of the time I'll click my account and get a blank screen and have to refresh a few times to get it to show up and things like that. When I withdrawl and put in my auth code, it gives me a white screen but then still processes the order. The balance of coins isn't automatically updated sometimes, you have to click "details" and "update" to force it to poll the account balance.

Bottom line from me: It's buggy and frustrating sometimes but it hasn't eaten my coins.

If the sheet is still active, I'd like to remove my sell order for 5k , thanks 

Well I didn't penalize the user; I paid all the due coins.
I had no proof but I operated on:
1) The user IP came from a hong kong edu domain
2) No email provided so no contact to verify
3) Single user represented over 200 MH/s on the then-net rate of 600-700 MH/s
4) Public opinion

I'm thinking about adding a second work server. Where do you think it should go?

Options:
Chicago, NYC, FL USA
Europe
Asia

It should be good to go now.

Last night I blocked suspected botnet dodg, and I'm not sure, but my suspicion is (probably not intentional) that his bots hopped to another pool and then came back and kept getting unauthed messages which requires a mysql connection to check the auth (blocked). I installed memcached into the stratum server (probably should have on day 0) so that repeat requests don't require database checks and increased the connections supported by mysql so it should be okay now.

I blocked "dodg" from the pool.

Well, the pastebin is from 4-09 and I haven't had any issues in my testing/usage.

There also was not MASSIVE hash power. Block difficulty was super low, anyone with a hasher and low expiry settings was getting blocks.

Sorry for the quote stack. What do you mean? I'm live with this now, what kind of problems do you have with it?

The blockchain has to be modified to accept other blockchain's PoW's. The way merged mining works with bitcoin and namecoin is that the namecoin block chain agrees to accept a special transaction hash in the bitcoin block as proof of work for a namecoin block.

Good luck :-)

I think the inverse may be true. I didn't get litecoin-eloipool to work.

This is from memory so it's probably wrong.
x16 spec is 75 watts
x1 spec is 25 watts

You run the risk of pulling too much current through the 25 watt connector, which results in problems under several possible conditions:

1) The GPU prefers PCI power over 6+2pin connector power
2) The PSU or MoBo cannot handle the full load from the PCI-E connectors combined, when over-loaded
3) The x1 connector's traces were slimmed down to only support 25 Watts

There's also this mobo which comes with a 12 V molex right by the slot for extra power:

The asrock boards have nice power/reset buttons built into them (most of them) which is nice if you're going caseless and don't wanna bring out the screwdriver and start jabbing pins on the header.

Orphaned blocks, normal for feathercoin early mining.

Successful trade 

I'm beginning to wonder if the "research" aspect of this coin is related to 51% attacks and DDoS takeover and things like that...
