My observations agree - in the long run the payouts are about the same. I like slush because it's a little more exciting. Finding a block on GHash is a yawn with its small payout; but finding one on slush is a Boo-Ya.
The only thing I don't like about slush is if you lose power it penalizes you as if you're pool hopping and shares you may have been working on for 20+ hours wither away to nothing.
Agreed, and I let's not forget we don't want to help the "Evil Empire" achieve the 51%.

So could it be said that a good pool is one thats big enough but not to big where as the payouts are less such as the average ghash payout of .004 per block allbe it they blocks process fast enough by the end of the day as noted its .02 Yes agree need a one month data set, anyone got one ? So here at slush if there are too many miners the payout goes down ? My big question is why does 1 block take 17hrs to hash when another takes 45mins Those 17hr blocks kill a daily payout I had to run a 24hr comparison to try to figure who to call home slush or ghash ghash is so huge you can gurantee something steady but low. .02etc in my other post can you please confimr that time period that equaled .05 was a 24hr period of blocks or am i missing something is it 2 days? cause if thats a 24hr period i found my home here at slsush NQA Luck (or lack of) is why it took 17 hrs to solve that block. I have seen several 24+ hour rounds to find a block here at Slush. Yes on the 6th we had a good run of luck and did solve 10 blocks that is why you have to look at 90 to 180 days worth of numbers to get a true average. If you were to compare "the evil empire" and us for 6 months I bet you would find we are very close to the same pay out. I mine here because it is a solid pool with very few problems with good support. If you go back and read several hundred pages back you will see these very same questions brought up several times.

When you do a pool comparisons you need to use at least at the minimum 1 month's worth of data preferably 3 to 6. For those that have been here a while we can tell you that Slush averages 5 to 6 blocks a day when you average it out over time. The total payout here is a little better because of the lower hashing rate. Slush is a pool that you point your miners at and forget them, check it once or twice a week and let it be.

I WILL REMEMBER PAGE 954 OF THIS FORUM.

Thanks, I have created a outlook reminder, good luck to you also.

I hope you are right, I just don't see it. The whales will sell off to buy back at a depressed price before it can get that high. We have gotten into a cycle of that happening recently.

IF it was you then bet is on... agreed? This bet is for US (you and I) and only us (you and I); no one else.
I will definitely take the bet if want to, but if you mistakenly answered me instead of waskidding I will withdraw the offer, your call. I see now it was you and not waskidding. Didn't realize you joined the conversation. It doesn't matter whether it was you or waskidding. You and I know NOW who was chatting. So, this bet is only for you and I and NO ONE ELSE. So, we agree to the bet? I do. 0.1 BTC is the amount of the bet. The Bet is the following: That BTC will be $510.00 US on STAMP EXCHANGE BY 2400 HOURS CHICAGO TIME (CST) THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 27. AGREED? Agreed, I am saying it will not be $510 and you are saying it will. Damn I hope you actually win this bet. If I do win, donate the .1 to Sean's Outpost @ 1M72Sfpbz1BPpXFHz9m3CdqATR44Jvaydd

I predict BTC will be at $475.00 by October 30th...
$540.00 by Thanksgiving
I will take that bet, btc will not even be close to that. I like your enthusiasm but you need to go to the S4 thread and read all the problems they are having. CK has confirmed it is a hardware problem and did a quick cgminer patch until Bitmain can come up with a firmware work a round which isn't really fixing the problem. You need to consider the Prisma at 1.4 TH each much better deal and you will come closer to a ROI (noticed I said closer as there is no hardware that currently has a chance to ROI). Hmmmmmmmmmmm How about lets bet 0.1 BTC that BTC will be $510.00 by Thanksgiving? I will take that bet. Anybody here care to witness? That bet was intended for the two parties who were in the conversation [wasikidding and myself]. THAT BET was NOT for "ANYBODY and EVERYBODY IN THIS FORUM." I'm not a damn BTC BOOKIE... LOL DID I OFFER THAT BET TO EVERYONE? HELL NO!!! I"M NOT RICH AND I"M NOT A BTC BOOKIE NOW WITNESS THAT... Pay attention when you quote, you quoted me not waskidding.....

Also Dmward if you do the slush's poll above it may take you from a newbie to jr account it did on mine I've looked at how to answer the damn thing and can't find it. Help please? Activity changes your account rank nothing else. What is considered "activity?" I KNOW I have posted on here at least 100 times already... Sign out and sign back in to see your current activity. I've signed in and out 3 times now and nothing changes. I KNOW I've posted in this forum and ck.'s solo pool forum a combined total of at least 100 times and my activity stays at 28 all the time. I don't know how to get to where I can answer that poll either. This will explain it: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=237597.msg2513302#msg2513302

It has been a while since our last 24+ hour block, that is when you find out who the true slushes are.

In the subject of this thread, is it 9000 TH or 900 TH ? Maybe mistake...! ~~MZ~~ That was the an old post we are currently at 7.8 PH but usually hang around 5.6 to 6.2 PH when we don't have all the hoppers dropping by,

Has anybody seen what's been happening to the BTC price lately? Yikes!! Does anyone have any theories as to why this is happening?
Was a bunch of sell offs today, it had gotten down to 338 but seems to be holding around 350 lately. Biggest question is "how low will it go" ?

Directories are the same but alas, the architecture is different :-( when I downloaded that 4.6.0 binary it wouldn't run. it gave the error: ./cgminer: line 1: syntax error: unexpected "(" And when I ran "file" on them both, they say: $ file cgminer-3.12.0 # this is the one on the S4 cgminer-3.12.0: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, stripped
$ file cgminer-4.6.0 # this is the one you can download for the S2 and S3 cgminer-4.6.0: ELF 32-bit MSB executable, MIPS, MIPS32 rel2 version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), with unknown capability 0x41000000 = 0xf676e75, with unknown capability 0x10000 = 0x70403, stripped
Might shoot CK a pm and see if he has any input.

Does anyone know what username and password could I use for SSH access to S4? The device is freezed but SSH is live. Thx.
ssh username is root, and the password for the S4 is "admin" I've been ssh'ed into mine. Contemplating upgrading cgminer myself... Dare I? The author posted an ant miner-patched version and instructions (well, for the S3 I think)... I suck at Linux, but I'd like to ssh into a few of my miners to see what's going on behind the curtains. How would I go about seeing cgminer once I'm connected? Edit: Gave screen -r a try and that worked. Any other tricks I should know? Tried the same on an Innosilicon A2 Terminator, but it isn't the right command. Here is how to do the update on a S3, dir's might be a little different on a S4 don't know as I didn't order one. I did do on my S1's back when I had them and the scare started circulating and it went smooth. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=671189.msg9071790#msg9071790
