Interesting concept. Kinda of a meta pool. I wouldnt mind connecting one mining rig to kick the tires.

Yeah he asked my address twice now, but we are in like opposite timezones. I dont expect to be screwed over 0.6 BTC  |

Still havent received mine either. But it might be a timezone issue.

That really sucks. So sorry for your loss. Have to ask though... no fire insurance?

People have been maintaining living standard despite falling (relative) wages by increasingly getting in to debt for almost a generation.
But why? Are they simply unaware that their relative wages are falling? Are loans to easy to get, All of the above I suppose. There used to be a time were people bought their cars and often even houses with money they had saved. Today thats impossible for the majority of people. There used to be a time when you didnt get 29 credit cards in your mailbox without even asking. When you didnt need loans to get through college. Where households got around nicely with just one income. Ask your parents or grand parents, they might remember. should they be harder to get? Is it a matter of educating a culture of savings? Perhaps, but the real solution can only be to increase wages. The current wealth inequality is back to the levels from just before the great depression:  Fixing that by at least taxing the rich IMO is not a matter of fairness, its a matter of economic common sense. |

Second i see with the cgminer 2.0.8 indeed a lot of rejects after some time, sometimes even showing all being rejects
And sometimes i saw cgminer constant reporting longpoll and not accepting work for a long time (5 to 145 minutes)
As a solution i allways restarted cgminer which if you press q ends in a hanging window.
Same here, reported it twice. Although I dont think cgminer hung on me. It just kept switching pools and complaining it couldnt connect to any of them, even though it was not a network connectivity issue (restarting routers didnt help, restarting cgminer solved it on every machine while the others where still in limbo). My only guess at this point is that it happens when my public IP changes, which seems to be very random and rather rare (few times per month). Im monitoring that now to confirm. |

I have read that others do not like to link their google id with a wallet for privacy reasons.
So why not create a secondary google (or whatever other openid) account? |

I just had someone else tell me he was unable to register with his gmail account. So I tried it with another gmail account, and I couldnt either.
Here is what I did. I clicked "join", clicked the google gmail icon, continue, logged in to my secondary gmail account, allowed access to bitminter, and then nothing. Returned to the bitminter site, but I still wasnt logged in, and couldnt log in. Clicking it did nothing.

Backup pools would be great. After that, all thats missing for me is control over clocks, fans, and maybe voltages.

I was wondering lately why my 6670 had a stale rate of nearly 10%. I switched the pool (nr 1 in poollist) and everything was fine for that card. Did the same on my other rig but out of nowhere i had stale rates up to 8% ! How was that possible ? I read then a post from p4man. It turned out that both times i had this, the pool i was mining to was not first in the poollist. Can someone else confirm this ?
Confirmed. Though not as dramatic as your results, for me stales go from ~0.15 % to 10x more when I am mining on a pool that is not #1 in the list. Moreover, with failover enabled it seems cgminer sends ~5% of my hashing power to my failover pool, even though the primary pool is not ever down. Seems to be related to long polling, each time there is a new block I see cgminer submitting a few shares to the backup pool. Is there a reason for that? |

hmmm what? 12 hours later  Pool is down too, you pulling the plug? |

No it isn't. The heat coming from the computer is exactly the same per kWh as from a electric furnace.
For all practical purposes, you are of course correct. However, I seem to recall from highschool some decades ago reading about irreversible deformation and iirc, not all energy was transformed in to heat. I would assume the electromigration taking place in side our chips would fall under that. I suppose its like 0.0000000001% (if that) but just curious if thats correct nonetheless? |

Still seeing very high stale rate: [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Pool: http://tntmining.com:8999[2011-12-25 23:55:25] Queued work requests: 5903 [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Share submissions: 5355 [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Accepted shares: 5271 [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Rejected shares: 84 [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Reject ratio: 1.6[2011-12-25 23:55:25] Efficiency (accepted / queued): 89% [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Discarded work due to new blocks: 306 [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Stale submissions discarded due to new blocks: 0 [2011-12-25 23:55:25] Unable to get work from server occasions: 24[2011-12-25 23:55:25] Submitting Three hypothesis: 1) its somehow because Im using multiple pools in failover mode in cgminer, and tnt is not the n1 priority? I just changed it to the first pool and will see if it changes anything 2) Im using 2 machines on the same worker. Can you create another worker for me? (oh and btw, a password to log on to the site?) 3) Network issue somehow? Though Im getting 12ms pings, so that seems great. update: changing my cgminer miner config file so that tntmining is the first in the list appears to have addressed the issue. 600 accepted shares and zero stales so far. |

cgminer 2.0.8. ONe rig on linux(coin) and the other on windows.

1.2 MH sent your way. Stales seem high compared to what Im used. Still early, but so far Im seeing 1.5%, thats roughly 10x higher than what I get on bitminter.

I like the idea, but youve taken it a bit OTT. This could be my backyard and I might not recognize it.

Probably this monthly "dump" is the owner of some large exchange or mining pool converting their bitcoin profit into USD so they can spend it.
Mining pool? Reality check; 216K BTC are mined per month. Even deepbit has "only" 30% of the bitcoin hashing power, with their preposterous 3% fees, that works out to 2K BTC per month, not 20K. |
