So if I needed some planned downtime and I didn't want to mess up my shares, how would I best choose when to shut down the miner?

Mini rally...

I think we're just moving through the eye of the storm.

So, after a highly obnoxious and unnecessary delay it looks like we are back to where we were this morning. About 12k BTC until 200.
10K BTC to $200, we're hitting that tonight for sure (probably while I'm asleep, grrrrr...) Set an alert.

How many bitcoins? If it's not many, just put the drive to one side and wait until it's worth recovering. If it's a lot, you probably want to go ahead and pay someone (but you would have had a backup in that case anyway, right?)

I'm no GOX fan. I'd like to see a legitimate(!) bank or forex trading site start a BitCoin exchange. At least you know those people have some experience with financial systems.
They often get it very, very wrong also.

I think it's about time we stopped calling it the "dead cat bounce" ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Fstream1.gifsoup.com%2Fview%2F293270%2Fbear-trampoline-o.gif&t=665&c=DgYRbUrWct3h0w)

Wrong "up", people ![Angry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/angry.gif)

Can you please post pictures of the new coin?
Can we have the next one be Web 2.0 compliant? That is, square with rounded corners and gradiated shading...

Just bought some more. Let's head on up!

Bitcoinity roller coaster!
Haha. Perfect. Just what I was thinking of.

A roller-coaster's no fun if it only goes up...

It appears my current problems may have an answer here: http://www.terracointalk.org/index.php/topic,3.msg275.html#msg275Getting too late in the night to set up cgminer though. I'll have to play tomorrow. Edit: Ah, who needs sleep? cgminer installed and graphs are doing something. Yaysome! Edit2: OK, now to figure out how to get it running under cygwin. Gives "redirection is not allowed". Not a show-stopper but I like to be able to ssh in.

Still getting 0H/s even with the -a removed. The output from my miner doesn't look right though. I don't know if that's just a p2pool thing though. Any ideas? 07/04/2013 23:31:18, started OpenCL miner on platform 0, device 1 (Cypress) 07/04/2013 23:31:18, Setting server (noob @ localhost:9332) localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:18, checking for stratum... localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:19, diverted to stratum on localhost:9332 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:19, Setting new difficulty: 0.999984741211 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:20, authorization failed with noob:sauce@localhost:9332 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:20, Setting new difficulty: 0.999984741211 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:23, IO errors - 1, tolerance 2 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:49, checking 1615820210 <= 0 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:31:50, checking 3741571565 <= 0 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:32:06, checking 1991599613 <= 0 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:32:08, checking 2221794573 <= 0 localhost:9332 07/04/2013 23:32:18, 0:1:Cypress [298.922 MH/s (~0 MH/s)] [Rej: 0/0 (0.00%)]
This is the command line if that helps

My miners are using the noob/sauce user & password but I did use the -a option to set the address to my bitcoinspinner wallet. bitcoinspinner? do you know if that wallet can receive generated coin? you should confirm that before you mine to that wallet. -- Smoov I had no idea that one could not. I will try without setting the address later and see if that helps any.

I think I'm mining. My miners look like they are mining. Fans are spinning high and the room is getting warm. Yet the top graph is flat at zero even on the hour view. Is this supposed to be the case?
Local rate on main page also says 0. What is happening to the MH/s that my miners are claiming?
If your miners have a Bitcoin address username, this will happen. Those graphs and numbers are for the main address, which defaults to one requested from bitcoind and can be set with the -a option on P2Pool. Letting P2Pool manage the payout address is the recommended course. However, your local rate and current payout should show up under the "Miners" header on the graphs page. My miners are using the noob/sauce user & password but I did use the -a option to set the address to my bitcoinspinner wallet.

Well, in a case of "when you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth", I turned off QOS on my router (Tomato based) and though it's still now downloading shares, the output now gives me a lot more confidence. Odd as though it wasn't in the top tier, it should still have had plenty of bandwidth. Oh well. Hope to be mining in the pool asap. I'll get around to debugging the QOS when I can.
Edit: now mining. Yay!
