Any update on our coins in the pools?
Just sent him a message on Skype, I'll let you know when I hear back (or he might just post)

Those of you with GorillaBucks should be seeing the chain moving again
Yes it is, and thank you! Vegas You can solo mine it at any time if it gets slow (0 reward)

seeing how you hype vary on c-cex troll box makes one cringe.
I answered a question. I don't need to shill. If the idea isn't good, people won't join in people can read bro. you obviously in there with the intention to get it listed. looks like some quality shilling to me. a lead dev that talks about a test chain in an exchanges trollbox.... come on if this will hit exchanges it will backfire, it already is the way you promote a test chain no hard feelings , perhaps i'm mistaking. just wanna voice this before not after shit hits the fan. don't wish you that. Is this a joke?

The rich no longer getting richer just means everybody is poor.
Because trickle down has worked so well in the past

Whats the latest update here?
Variance is running well and staking has scaled nicely. No problems detected at the moment

Added mining pools and a bit more information.. As many of you know, 10k started as a chain we could use to experiment new mechanics. It worked great, and not only did we use what we learned in BALLS, but we then merged the two into a more serious project, GorillaTeeth. Now we are at a crossroads. With GorillaBucks ready to start moving when GorillaEx comes back, we have a fresh chain that already has interest in it, but no place to test new ideas.. until now This brings us to Variance. If this staking system works well, the plan is to bring it over to GorillaBucks. The only difference is that we will leave mining active on this one until Block 8 million. This coin is merge minable with BTC and we will work with pools to get this set up later on The way stake rewards are calculated are dramatically different in Variance. For this reason, we need to ensure the network gets to block 100,000 as quickly as possible for system scaling tests. The most efficient way to achieve this is to keep difficulty low for the first 100,000 blocks. Everyone will have a fair shot at the initial rush, but I would very highly suggest against renting rigs. Mining pools will most likely not be able to keep up with the rush of blocks being found prior to block 100,000. After 100k, it will start moving to more manageable, long term levels. Variance also comes out of the box ready to be merge mined with Bitcoin, PPC, and any other SHA coins that are set up to be auxiliary chains. With Proof of Work active until Block 8 million, this will be a feature I actively pursue making use of Stake rewards change quite a bit in this one, which bring us to the entire point. We need to test this system to ensure it won't break prior to implementing it into GorillaBucks. Coinage is scaled so the rich won't become richer at such a ridiculous, compounding pace. Large and small deposits will be scaled to generate from nearly the same sliding range This is not being premined or instamined by myself or anyone else. Why am I posting it in this thread and not in its own? Because you guys are the only ones I care about on these forums. Please remember this is testing a totally different way to do rewards, so things might break. The goal of this coin is not to shill, market, or try to get it traded anywhere. If that happens, cool, but if not, that's fine TL;DR - It is imperative to remember that Variance is essentially a standalone GorillaBucks test chain. If you rent rigs for this launch, you will just be pissed off that no pools can keep up

until the pool catches up with all the blocks found theres going to be a delay
theres nothing i can do about it we all have to wait.
It should start catching up now that the blocks are taking longer right? i hope so lol i don't have as much power as you lot so it would be nice to get a few more coins Do you at what block the the pool is at catching up? Still no payout from pool ? Frustrating but guess we need to wait. Is there a Blockexplorer we can use? I also hope that the servers have kept track of our transactions. I don't see the puzzle fitting together when you look at amount of blocks S5 confirmed, accepted plus 12hrs running S5. Comparing this with one pool that shows everything is confirmed and at zero balance. Not going to talk about the other pool just loosing every transaction I created. I'm willing to bet 99% of the accepted blocks for everyone's miners were orphans. I sent him a message on Skype about it, he's aware

I'm waiting on coins too so I definitely feel your pain. I'm sure he's working on it as soon as it catches up. Should be smooth sailing from here on out with the slower blocks now

Why did you guys move to a moderated thread?
All my threads are self moderated

Speaking of TEETH, the large majority of my coins are stuck in stake for over two days. In no way does that seem "normal" Any idea what's going on?
Working as intended. The maturity time from stake -> spendable is 10 days, on purpose So, I guess after 100,000 block the diff is going to ramp up? Correct, with merge mining available until block 8 million

iGotSpots what happens to teeth? Your actions are totally chaotic, you have a plan? Since the times of all the investors only lose
Since when are people losing? Variance tests scaling of stake rewards. Would you prefer I just throw a huge change like that into TEETH without properly testing it first?

Don't forget, the mining rush is only to get us to block 100k. Mining continues until block 8 MILLION

This is the very first coin im going to sit out on from Spots. I think there are FAR too many people bum rushing it. Ill grab a deckchair and one of those umbrella drinks and sit back and watch them mayhem. When it hits an exchange Ill buy then.
Vegas
From pool signup email fails to the retard rush for sha256 rentals to the holiday Monday making me asleep during the launch time... I'm out too. I got my email in spam in about a minute. It's always a bad time for someone when something launches, doesn't matter what time it is

I'm actually really, really surprised his pool is keeping up with it..
|
|
|
can we non miners expect some news and PR for TEETH in the coming days or is it all vary now?
Variance is for testing changes that will make their way into TEETH and BUCKS

Looks like staking has kicked in perfectly. Please report back the amount you are staking for and the amount you deposited, so I can make sure everyone is being scaled properly
