anyone having problems using diablo with gpumax.com ?   

syptoms:
  start.  works OK.  hashrate good.
  during:  start to get connection issues reported by diablo, but it reconnects and works.
  after a while:  the connection issues increase to the point that no shares are accepted.  but it reports a full hashrate.

fix:  stop and start diablo


I thought gpumax was a scam?

apparently it is the Long Polling that is causing it with gpumax..  can I turn off LP with diablo?


No. Tell gpumax to fix their software, no other pool is having this issue.

LOL, fix our software.  hehehehe cause all the other mining clients have issues right?  Cheesy

So other clients are having problems too?

Nope, just your miner. Sad

Q: with GPUmax, do you as a miner have control over which buyers you allow to bid on your hashpower? So you can blacklist or whitelist specific pools?
No, you simply set a PPS rate you're willing to sell your hashing power for and our system manages the rest.  If a purchase is over your PPS rate you do public work and if its less you mine at your private pool.

BTW, semi off topic, but I notice bitminter is blacklisted by you due to high stales. AFAIK, that problem was solved 1 or 2 days ago. At least Im currently seeing only 0.1% stales since the new backend went live.
We would be willing to do another test run on it to make sure its up to par. Smiley

The users of GPUMAX know exactly where their hashing power goes

Yes (*), but he was talking about goat and clipse's proxies. anyone mining there definitely doesnt know what their hashing power is used for. I sometimes wonder if goat and clipse know themselves.

Anyway, had to add a *, because, I assume (?) proxy pools could also buy hashing power at gpu max? If so, the miner has again no clue where his hashes ultimately end up. But I havent checked out gpumax yet, so I could be wrong.

No, if our system detects a proxy pool (bithopper) it won't allow the purchase to start.  We also do research on unknown pools to verify if they are mining bitcoin blocks.  In reality most of the proxy pools can't handle the speeds we throw at them so they are blacklisted anyway.

Well I am 100% sure its not 100% hopping however I'm not sure where all the traffic goes for everyone.

However my point would be, if you do not want to be "stolen" from go to p2p or a pool like eclipsemc. I mine there myself. I find the payouts there to not be flawed like at the other large pools.

Thanks

You don't know where all the directed mining is going? I anxiously await your final release of what it is you (and others) are doing with all the mining power that can pay such a premium over other pools.

I have to say, you have been more courteous/respectful in this thread than the other “get rich quick” mining companies that have sprung up. I’m more inclined to believe that you are not doing something shady that will eventually be uncovered. I hope that if it’s “legit” it survives and flourishes.

You're right P2Pool is a great option and I respect the fact that you support it.



I just had to comment on this one.  If you even knew half of what you were talking about you would stop posting garbage like this.  If you don't trust the person/pool/proxy your mining with, then don't mine there.  The users of GPUMAX know exactly where their hashing power goes, cause they can purchase hashing power themselves.  We've spent more time ensuring our system can not be used to harm Bitcoin than anything else.  We all mine at pools to gain the advantage of more blocks.  So pool hopping or not, it's nothing new and it can't be stopped.  So stop whining about pools using their power to hop other pools. If you have a problem with them using your power to hop or attack Bitcoin then don't use them.

Update

Looks like it was a bug on our side.  We are looking into it.  The system should be back up now.


Thanks

Update

So more of the same issues look to be happening with our old DC.  We are moving as fast as possible to the new DC but until we are migrated this crap will continue to happen.  We are working on it.

Sorry guys,

I don't really understand the referral concept.

Since they're sending you their BTCs, why do you need to trust them?

The same way you need to trust the bank you get your mortgage from.

No, it's more like the bank needing to trust you for accepting money you deposit with them. They're taking your money and paying you interest on it in the same way as pirateat40 is...the depositor is taking the risk that the bank pays interest and doesn't run off with the capital.

In your scenario, you're the one taking the loan, so the bank needs to trust you, not the other way around, and the more they trust you, the more they'll lend you / lower your interest rate.

I don't think he want to have to deal with a lot of movement in and out.

Yeah that's fair enough, it's just that referrals in the guise of security doesn't make much sense: "this model allows me to limit the new accounts from unknown, new or untrustworthy members."

I understand not wanting to deal with 10000 withdrawals/deposits all the time, and pirateat40 has said as much before, but a referral system will create exactly that. The only thing faster than wildfire is word of mouth.

Reasons:

  • I get requests from people with 1 post wanting an account which means either someone told them or they have a sock puppet account.
  • I don't want this to spiral out of control, so adding even this small limitation makes my life much easier to manage.
  • I trust my lenders and trust they know who is a good candidate and who isn't.

If I find that I have lenders referring crappy clients to me I'll hold them responsible, close their accounts and go on about my day.  I'm trying to build a core to a much bigger operation here and I think this is the best way to attack it.

530  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Deepbit hopping on: February 08, 2012, 12:29:58 AM
So yes, GPUMAX is responsible for sending purchases to deepbit on occasion but it's not a popular pool for those that purchase shares.  I think one of the things that you might want to look at is when we're doing updates or have suspended purchases our miners fail-over to their offline pools.  So this could cause a spike in hashes that could make it look like they're hopping the pool when in reality it's just them failing over.  Technically they are hopping but not the traditional way.  I have no problem adding Deepbit to the not supported list for purchases if it's causing that much concern but I can't control where people fail-over to when we're not processing purchases.

Current Status - Referral Based Only
Opening an account with FPT&S now requires you to have a current lender refer you.  Lenders are not paid for referrals so they have nothing to gain from me but this model allows me to limit the new accounts from unknown, new or untrustworthy members.
532  Economy / Long-term offers / Re: First Pirate Savings and Trust on: February 07, 2012, 06:04:59 PM
I still haven't received my payment. Am I missing something?

Huh?  PM me
533  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 07, 2012, 05:46:09 PM
Does anyone know when payments go out.


I might.

We try to do them around noon CST but today they will be delayed a little, but will still go out today.
534  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 07, 2012, 02:59:38 AM
This should fix itself in a day or so? Thanks.

Should be less than that, but yea for sure.
535  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 07, 2012, 02:32:03 AM
So I've performed some testing from a few locations and it looks like some ISP's have stale NS records which we switched today.  So if you're having issues accessing the site this is most likely the issue.

Almost all US locations have the correct NS information.  Sorry guys.
536  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 07, 2012, 01:49:05 AM
https://gpumax.com seems to be down, but my miners are still working. When this happens everything is okay?

Thanks.

hmmm, everything seems fine here.
537  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 07, 2012, 12:18:24 AM
Thats weird because I have a small balance on mine for the last 6 days and it never cleared out. 

pm me your email and ill check it out.
538  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 07, 2012, 12:13:09 AM
Is there a minimum balance for withdrawl.

Nope it just clears out your balance once a day.
539  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 07, 2012, 12:11:46 AM
Is there supposed to be a manual withdrawl button,  I don' see on anywhere.

Nope, its auto once a day for now.
540  Economy / Services / Re: GPUMAX | The Bitcoin Mining Marketplace on: February 06, 2012, 11:59:44 PM
One thing I would like to see is statistics over time. So you could see what your average hash rate was and when. I personally really like how eligius shows this. I would also like to see my statistics for all my workers.

On a side note... My megahashes on gpumax always seem around off my about 50-100. That is another reason why I would like the graph. I could see if it is just when I am watching or if it averages out over time.

Its coming its coming... we're beta and working on making the system reliable and efficient.   The fun stuff will come.
