Hi all,
I have some workers that work, some that don't. Will the shares from the workers that show up as idle be counted later on or are they lost???
Not in the scoring system that is used here. Taking a worker offline is causing its score & reward to begin dropping like a stone and the process starts within seconds. Basically most of it is lost after a longer offline period (i.e. 1 hour), hence workers better work 100% of all time with 100% network connection. (the only luck you can have is the round to take at least another ca. 15-30 Minutes, after which score & reward is about completely recovered, even if you started very late in the round, which will basically grant you massive over-reward for that round on that worker) So I should wait until the next round before I start panicking, basically? |

I'm seeing the same thing, no hashing/current shares from the bitcoincz page. (everything is empty basically) But my miners are hashing away fine. Thought it was me testing a new Raspberry Pi with new worker, but the old worker shows the same when hashing as well.
Question - I am going to be getting more hashing power and I could swear there used to be a place to enter in your hashing power (when setting up a worker?) in order to hash at the correct difficulty or something like that. Is this gone now? All I need to do is create a worker and give it a pw?
Thanks,
IAS
So this could be a pool side issue then? I hope? - As per the hashing power, I don't think Slush's pool ever had the option to enter that detail? Not for as long as I've used it I don't think... |

My worker went offline for a little while. I've reconnected and it's hashing, but not showing that it's hashing on the workers screen? Is it because that takes a while to populate as it's an average hash rate display?

Off topic for this forum but wow. Why the sudden drop in price, Bitcoin?

Wow, what a round we're stuck in!

Guys, make sure you're watching the confirmed reward only. I have my threshold at .1 and am getting roughly 24 - 36 hour payouts. I'm content with that now. Thanks all for putting up with my whinging, I was watching the combined reward  |

Hi, any one received any payment on the last 24h? I'm over 300% my threshold... and nothing.
Others have, I haven't. I guess we just have to wait it out? |

FFS, calm down. Your coin isn't lost. Once it hits your wallet what are you going to do with it?
Sell it for a grand? Why, you think it'll go higher? 2 grand, three? |

Please pay me Slush. I'm well over my threshold now.
Thanks,
They seem to be working now, my payment got sent about 6 hours ago but maybe theres a slight bag log if its not showing up yet. Doesn't appear to have left the pool yet and no email, so I guess I'll keep on waiting. |

Only thing bad for me about Slush's pool is the payouts... sigh...

Hope I get my .2 paid out shortly.

A month of long rounds.
Hope your coins appear mate...

Bring on more blocks! I just got a ten gigahash boost, woot!

If only we could somewhat control our luck?

Reward payouts not happening again.... now more than 2 hours above the threshold.... Slush, pleaaaaase  What's your threshold set at? I've upped mine a little, not too worried, I know payouts will happen. I'm more worried about the exchange rate though. How long do we think it will keep this up? |

It doesn't work that way. It didn't take that long to find a specific block, it took that long to find any block. Every time someone else finds a block, we start looking for a new block based on what they found. That's why we call that 12 hours a round, not a block.
So every time you see "stratum detected a new block" in the miner log would indicate that the hashing power is being spent on solving a block rather than looking for a new one? Unless someone solves that block first. But if you don't see a new block detected for a long while, the hashing power is being spent finding a new one? How is hashing power divided between looking for new blocks vs solving, is there a ratio set by the pool operator depending on how many active blocks have been found? -noob. When you see "stratum detected a new block" it means that someone somewhere in the world found a solution for the current block and that a new block is now being worked on. Solving is looking for new blocks. Different names for the same thing. The thing is that there is more than one right solution for any given block. All the pools and solo people use different inputs than every one else in hopes that their input will find the desired output. Say your hashrate is 5 Gh/s, that means you are checking 5 million different inputs every second looking for the one output that will complete the block. Ah, so there is only one active (known) block at a time that all miners are working to solve. Once that is solved, the answer leads to the next block? Also I was a bit thrown on the block vs round. I checked the wiki but will do some more looking. Sorry if my questions are elementary, I am fairly new and I must say it is quite a lot to grasp. Thank you for taking the time out of your day. Yes, you have got the blocks down. A round is how long it takes for the pool to find a block. If it took 10 hours for the pool to find a block, that is a 10 hour round. A lot of people will call that a 10 hour block, but that is confusing to new people. Let me see if I get this myself please? A block is worked on by the entire network and pools. Any pool or miner can solve the block, hence ending their round? Correct? Thus, our round continues until we solve one of these blocks? Hence the 'stratum detected new block?' |

What's with our luck lately?

A 5 hour round on top of a 12 hour round, got to love that, don't we? I was going to do the lawn, but no, it's raining again. Realestate is demanding we mow, well guess what?  |

I had 0.1, changed it to 0.05. I'll see what difference that makes.
