I could not keep my hands off..

Running a Experimental p2pool for CHNcoin (CNC) - No guarantee it works 100%
Solo mining seems to work better for now.

cgminer:

Well, I, for one, I am willing to help the development of this coin when I have some free time. I am fairly experienced c/c++ developer (6 years). I don't have a lot experience in cryptography, but i can take a crash course on coursera. But i have some requirements that i would like to integrate in the coin:
1. a block generated at every 10 seconds for fast approval of transactions (this i think is critical for the wide spreading of a coin, because in real life nobody will want to wait more than 10 seconds for the payment to be approved)
2. every block will generate at random between 1.5 and 2 coins at first and then, after some time, between 0.7 and 1.3 (to make it fun )
3. When a critical monetary mass is reached, new coin is generated only based on the transactions done between 2 blocks. Let's say that will be at random between 5% and 15%, plus the fees (this is to have a dynamic inflation). This will give the miners always an incentive to mine and keep the network alive.
4. I was just thinking and this to improve the resistance of an 51% attack, and is the following: Every region has  an IP class, and we make a pool of all the IP classes (I think that the first number of the IP will be enough, for privacy reasons, so if the ip is x.y.z.w, we will store only the x). When a new block is found, the IP class that found the block is excluded from finding blocks for the next 4 to 10 blocks, and then is added back to pool. That way we will have a more even spreading of the coin, and I think that it will also reduce the risk of a 51% attack (I may be wrong, I think i need to study more the cryptography).

cgminer tells me that the pool is not providing work fast enough.  Also, lots more rejects/stales compared to other pools for me, same settings.  Any chance of stratum?

I'm already mining!

BUT- it's not going to be what you think. It will be a nice/funny surprise.

In the end, I decided to stick with SHA-256 for the time being- retask something that already exists. Lets see what happens. There is a fix though for the difficulty issue that TRC encountered- if there have been no blocks for a certain amount of short time, the difficulty will readjust to 1. This will allow for crazy/wild difficulty fluctuations. But my hope is that it will look like a sine-wave and will become predictable in it's movement. It's a real experiment.

There is a special secret social factor that might (might) keep it from being 51% at the beginning. It will be interesting to see what happens. There will be indeed a great amount of pressure to "move the chain" however. I'll explain later.

The goal of the 'crc' is similar to that of TRC- to help people learn about Bitcoin, about using Bitcoin and making services for Bitcoin- all without actually using Bitcoin. Maybe even make a coin or two in profit along the way.

:-)

Hmmm,

So how quickly would you want CRC to be on CCE, the largest Alt-coin explorer site in the world? 

How much pre-mining licensing is it worth, for that kind of exposure??..

Change the Scrypt parameters to make it more memory intensive and destroy the cost/performance ratio of GPUs.

Forgot to mention ** You will need to trust DividendRippler.com for an amount greater than what I send. If this happens, you'll need to flag the server to try it again by sending an XRP.

wow bbq diff is at an all time high someone know something
