i see, is there a list of supported(or non-supported) pools? i was looking forward to the purchase i have sitting there, how are refunds handled if i don't like any of your supported pools?
They are listed in the OP and we only support Bitcoin pools. If you would like a refund let me know. so it is, right in front of my face, but yeah none of the supported pools are any good for me, so i guess its a refund, if you ever decide to allow that site let me know (its the same algo/miners as bitcoin, a direct clone i think) (unless you can just let the order through this once, i think it would be hilarious to see the giant spike in hashing power there  ) apart from that i'm liking GPUMax, its great. Either fun or melt that pools server.  Can't do it. I'll process your refund. Thanks, |

is there someone doing them now? (its 9:30 ish yeah) I put in a purchase 7 hours ago and then read that you guys do it manually, so have just been waiting to see how it goes.
If it has not started then your pool is not supported. |

What times do purchases go through?
8AM - 12AM CST, sometimes later. |

Bitcoins should be trading at the more rational price of $0.05.
Let's assume for the moment that nobody uses Bitcoins to buy or sell anything other than dollars. There's no bitcoin economy to speak of; it's all exchanges. In the past thirty days, judging by the volume and a conservative fee schedule, Mt. Gox has absorbed 69k$ in exchange fees. Now, let's assume these folks are incredibly reckless, and every month they blow 10% of their money on exchange fees. This would mean that they have at least 690k$ that they're playing around with in the market. And here's the thing: I'm pretty sure that number would be the same whether we're trading at 5$ or 5c. It's the amount of USD they have to experiment with Bitcoin. That's inelastic - what's elastic is the number of BTC to which that amount translates. Now, there are about 8.5 million Bitcoins in existence right now. As everyone knows, a lot of that money is hidden or lost and hasn't moved in months. But let's assume that they're all actually in circulation, all theoretically available to buy. If that optimistic assumption about the BTC in circulation is true, along with all those incredibly pessimistic assumptions about the value being traded in BTC? Even then, we have a price of 690000/8500000 = eight cents per bitcoin. And if you add in all the other exchanges, plus all the other currencies, plus the BTC that's out of circulation, plus the commerce that's going on in BTC today, plus the fact that most people won't be blowing 10% of their profits on exchange fees... that price has nowhere to go but up. So five cents isn't a rational price. In fact, it's a darn near impossible price. I have to say... I'm impressed with the way you think. Keep it up. |

We have been back on the main system for a while now. I'm not sure what the issue could be. My CGMiner connects instantly to our system.
I just reconnected and as you said...it was INSTANT this time. Did anything of significance change during your testing on your end Pirate ? The only difference is we have purchases running now, so it maybe an issue with your private pool. |

We're going to be running some tests on some "we think" faulty hardware. During this time the system will be running on a backup system which is not designed to handle loads for long. Except some connection issues for about 30 minutes.
Thanks,

It's totally understandable that some people are not willing to submit IDs before more details are posted.
there is no details on earth that will make some ppl submit their ID's, giving away the anonymity because there is a KYC law bahh just find a place where you dont need that crap Everyone has their own criteria. Where else is there a service offering leveraged trading (including shorting) for Bitcoin? It might be time for Pirate Industries to get into the trading platform sector. |

ahh I see what your saying hehe I bet your a lot younger than me, I can tell by your style of doing things in windows I come from the days when you needed batch files just to boot your computer,,, so I guess I look at things in a different way Autoexec.bat baby.... ALL THE WAY!!! |
|
|
|
but if you make a batch file you dont have to type the commands, unless im missing something
Just create a new shortcut with the whole command as the target. It does the same thing and no need for a batch. |

cgminer is far superior to guiminer and its very easy (so easy in fact you can do all your overclocking right from cgminer!) just make a batch file open up note pad type something like this @echo off
cgminer -o http://gpumax.com:8332 -u username -p pass -o http://backuppool.com:8332 -u username -p pass -I 9 --gpu-engine 900 --gpu-memclock 300 --gpu-fan 50
(obviously you want to change to reflect your situation) save it as startminer.bat inside your cgminer folder, create a short cut on your desktop and boom, your overclocking and mining with all your cards on that rig with just one click! I dont even use a batch, i just make shortcuts to the command line. |

Every morning when I goto check on my GPUmax miners, on Guiminer, using pheonix. They all say "Connecting..." this has happened 3-4 days in a row.. One card will go out, then another, then eventually another.. they can go for a couple hours or so.. But the problem is they never recover to hashing.. I would love to put all my hashes on your site for a night but, I cant afford to be mining nothing on your site.. Plus my house is cold today because that unit wasnt mining.. wheres my hot chocolate! Do you have a backup pool setup? I would recommend you get off of guiminer and use cgminer. I've been meaning to check out cg miner, how easy is it ? I really hate command line interfaces, as everything takes twice as long, and I have little time to learn this.. ? There is no gui for cg miner ? correct ? Cgminer rocks. |
