My payouts have been MASSIVE.  IDK what is going on, but I am making over 2x what I did at deepbit.

Was making about a bitcoin a day at deepbit.  Over the last 12 hours I have made 1.3 bitcoins at bitcoins.lc.  I know it probably comes down mostly to luck, but damn thats some lucky mining.

Yea, kept doing that for me yesterday.  I switched to bitcoins.lc and IDK what is going on, but I am mining at over 2x what I was mining at deepbit.  Maybe its a spat of luck or something, but I was pulling in just over 1 bitcoin a day at deepbit and over the last 12 hours I have mined 1.4 bitcoins at bitcoins.lc. 

Also, bitcoins.lc has been rock solid compared to deepbit.  I would always have to manually restart my miners because of deepbit's connection issues.

Awesome, that gives me a lot of confidence actually.  Thanks a lot.
385  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: bitcoins.lc on: June 12, 2011, 05:41:23 AM
Thats what I keep hearing, but damn over 7 hours and still haven't solved a block?  Just frustrating.

I'm not a troll. 

Exactly what a troll would say . . .  Cheesy
387  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: How many newbies are mining? on: June 12, 2011, 05:32:44 AM
Started about a week ago, which I would have started sooner.  Mining about a BTC a day at 650Mhash/s. 
388  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: The Experiment: Is it possible to buy a shirt using only mining and free coins? on: June 12, 2011, 05:31:27 AM
At that rate you are doing three things:

1)Wasting electricity
2)Shortening the life of your laptop
3)Losing money because of number 1

Bitcoin mining is not for you I am afraid.

Thank you very much.

You can now PM with only 1 post.

I was trying to post in newbie forum but I got some "300 second" message. What was that all about? That totally blows.

Don't post so fast.

So not only are we restricted to the noob forum, but now we have to wait 5 minutes in between posts? 
391  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: bitcoins.lc on: June 12, 2011, 04:31:58 AM
Yes. If you click on their 'statistics' link you will see they have solved 25 blocks since the site kicked off a week ago. The other thing to be aware of is its not like a larger pool (eg Slush's) where payouts are more regular. Bitcoin.lc is a relatively new site with fewer miners, so blocks take longer to solve on average, HOWEVER, as there are fewer miners, once a block is solved, those in the pool gets a larger slice of the 50 coins than they would with a larger pool.

As an example, on Slush's site I would average say +0.01144157 per block solved that could take anywhere from a few mins to a couple of hours or more. On Bitcoin.lc I average +0.15441573 per block. Essentially it doesnt matter whether you mine with 1 other person in a pool or 10,000 - the rewards are the same over time but Bitcoin.lc has the added advantage of 0% fees Smiley


You mine me asking what your hash rate is so that I can compare?

No, no restrictions on topics here.  This is just a place where you try to post as fast as you can so that you can leave and go to what you signed up for in the first place.
393  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: bitcoins.lc on: June 12, 2011, 04:24:46 AM
No, I knew it would be much longer than deepbit was.  Its just that this seems exceptionally long and I am trying to determine whether I should leave my computers mining overnight for this site or switch back to deepbit.  Just venting a little frustration.
394  Other / Beginners & Help / bitcoins.lc on: June 12, 2011, 04:18:47 AM
Does this pool ever actually solve a block?  Its been 5 hours and 44 minutes and still haven't received a single bit cent.  Trying out this pool because deepbit is buggy and continually disconnects and causes my miners to stop until I manually restart them.  Bitcoins.lc gives a little estimated BTC/24hr figure, and its about .15 BTC higher than what I could pull on deepbit.net during 24 hours.  Also there are no fees.  Hope the payout is massive because at this rate they are only going to solve 4 blocks a day.

Isn't 50 posts a little excessive?  So basically this newbies forum is going to be just a large group of people who are new to this bullshitting each other until they can actually go and ask people who know what they are talking about once they reach 50 posts?  
396  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Newbie restrictions (Please discuss forum policy here.) on: June 12, 2011, 04:12:32 AM
Perhaps a large announcement box at the top of every page would be best? I've seen this done on other forums when global announcements are necessary, like for scheduled downtime and the like.

Why would they do that?  That makes too much sense.  I had to find out from Reddit that I was restricted to this forum.  Was in the middle of talking to people on the Mining subforum, but guess I won't be finishing those conversations anytime soon.
397  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Bitcoin difficulty not making mining worthwhile. on: June 12, 2011, 01:59:18 AM
Yes,  where did you get 90 of those things...  and who put all those rigs together... o and ......  do they have cases?  I would love to see a pic..

btw,  I was happy to find a couple of cards at microcenter, picking this up tomorrow
Gigabyte Radeon HD 5830 1024MB GDDR5 PCIe 2.1 x16 ...    2    $399.98
SKU: 609578
MSI 890FXA-GD65 Socket AM3 890FX ATX AMD Motherboa...    1    $149.99
SKU: 288589



(they did not have the GD70) which I would have prefered.



How long is it going to take you to pay that back?  200 per 5830 is steep, even though I believe they have a 50 dollar rebate.  600mhash/s is gonna take a while to pay back 450 dollars (assuming MIR) )unless the bitcoins spike again in value.
398  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Bitcoin difficulty not making mining worthwhile. on: June 12, 2011, 01:43:33 AM
Where did you buy 90 5830's from? 

And you are sitting on 27Ghash/s of computing power.  How is that not profitable?
 

You could generate at least 3 blocks solo before the next difficulty increase.

I have had to manually restart my miners twice in the last hour.
What miners do you use ?

Phoenix w/ phatk

Gives me about 1% higher stale shares, but its about 3% higher hash rate.

How accurate is your estimation on BTC/24hours??  I am trying your pool out for a bit before deepbit gets its bugs ironed out, and I am liking it.  Its a bit disconcerting not seeing a constant flow into the account since the blocks take longer to generate, but according to your estimated BTC/24hr I should be making .15 BTC/24hr more than I was at deepbit.
