Heya guys, new to this middlecoin pool Wandering if the modded cgminer still required for best performance after the US server fix (eventually applied to EU server)? Using SMOS-Linux (modded BAMT) atm, is it possible to overwrite the cgminer files with the posted precompiled cgminer for middlecoin? Or recompile still required Thanks in advanced I was about to write you a guide, but someone's done it for you already : http://rumorscity.com/2013/12/11/how-to-upgrade-cgminer-version-3-7-2-for-bamt/You should be able to compile your own. Alternatively you could just download my compiled versions (linked above) and follow the tutorial's instructions on moving the preexisting cgminer folder to another name, and renaming the downloaded install folder to "cgminer". Should work fine. After playing with it this afternoon, I seem to find they all have little caveats. 3.7.2 has the 5 minute wait if it swaps pools before reconnecting (possibly a moot point now with middlecoin). 3.1.1 seems to ramp up hashrate quicker than the others on disconnect (a great thing). I've moved from 3.5.0 to 3.1.1 today and I'm happy with the decision. sence h20 fixed the server dont really need to use my compiled versions now but i guess it does not hurt to use them either i like 3.1.1 best myself also seems to work best for middlecoin. |

Which file do I edit? Do you just open it with notepad? I'd rather modify it myself than download somebody else's update, no offense.
None taken. But you realize you have to recompile the program after these changes? It isn't just some configuration file you're changing, it's hard coded in the binary. Ah never done that before, I'm sure I could figure it out but I'm feeling more lazy and I'll just switch pools until the issues are resolved I think a temporary reduced pool fee would be a good business decision for H2O because it would increase loyalty to the pool and generate him more money in long-term. Loyalty? You were screaming for a scammer tag a few hours ago! I can't stand people like that. I doubt he will / can compile. It will be way too much effort for him anyway. People like that who don't code and dont put in any real work just expect everything to come to them. Doesn't understand that cgminer he is running was written by someone and given for free and that the pool he is making money on was setup and maintained for free... and the fact that he rips off other people is just crazy. Maybe he is a sociopath. LOL i agree and the scammer tag fits him well lazy and wants everything spoon fed to him for free. |

Thanks. Does anyone have them for Windows? EDIT: Linked above. It really amazes me how much some people want to be spoonfed; How much can I make with this hash? How can I set up a load balance? Why is the server doing this? Where can I find this? I am far from a computer or a mining expert, I've just been doing this with my 7950 since the start of December, but if I want an answer, I'll google it, I'll use the search on bitcointalk, I'll read the CGminer README (it's called that for a reason.) If I still can't find an answer then maybe I'll post about it, but as a last resort rather than a first. I think it does show the good character in this thread though, most forums I know 90% of the posts would be shouted down for not doing the above. Talk about being spooned and using search, next time do some searching of your own and you would of read that his site is inaccessible for me. I can not load his page. Now go act like a fool on another forum. Retard. Bal3wolf. Thanks for compiling windows versions. I've been trying to download them from you for the last couple of days but for some reason your server just times out on me without ever loading the page. heres a drop box link for a few of them i posted it befor but stuff gets lost in here. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/548gdrrwa0b1227/aU9-rrH7m5?m= |

id like to ask others if your reported hashrate is wrong or someone is being nice and mining on my address as a thank you for making the compiled cgminers i dont know, i normaly do about 2.0-2.4mhash i been up over 5mh for awhile today cant say how long. I havet been able to be on pc very long my back surgery i had on dec 16th haset helped me and im in more pain instead of less if someone is mining on my btc address id like to thank you can use all the btc i can get sence im looking at a 2nd surgery.
You have had between 3.2MH/s to 5.7MH/s which started at around 2pm PST and has still been going and starting to taper off as of my last data pull. (one of the new features Im working on for my BFP tool )  yea thts way more then my hardware can pull at best i get like 2.38MH guess someone is rewarding me for doing all the cgminer compiles only thing i can think of or a bug and reporting wrong hash. I suspect some users of bal3wolf's recompiled cgminer don't realize the address in the supplied config file is bal3wolf's address and needs to be changed.  well i didnt leave the cgminer.cfg in any of my cgminers so that cant happen lol. You sure about that?  {

Yeah not sure can't tell ya more then that based on the data I get in the JSON file but I have a feeling its probably not a bug as you did help a lot of people stay stable over the last few days with your recompile of the cgminer software. true lol i had 3.6 gigs of downloads in mining tools over the last 4 days thank you to whoever is giving me some extra mining power. I have this show on mine upto 500Kh/s more than my power can handle... WHo knows could be some sort of glitch on the network i had that befor but never over double my hash rate and sustained one of my rigs is acting up and my hash didnt drop under 4.8mhash. |

Is that true? What ping do you have?
Its very true. Try it yourself. Cgminer 3.7.2 happily switches to new coins with no issues with no failover set. My ping to the US server 100ms. you lose some earnings doing that with all the getwork fails that the gpu drops its usage to 0 in 1 hr i had 50 getwork fails and my gpu usage was up and down using load balance still have them but gpu usge stays maxed out. |

no but if you link me to the source but sounds like your using linux you should have tools to compile that already installed.
https://github.com/veox/cgminer^ best branch so far I would say. I looked at it after compiled and the source seems like all he has done is removed asic and btc mining stuff and just made it for scypt mining and a few displaying changes, no optimizing yet older vers of cgminer still work better on middlecoin with the changed to the tcp_keepidle tcp_keepintvl. compiled it with and without the changes to tcp_keepidle tcp_keepintvl lol my www is getting alot of hits now good thing i get 70gigs a month should be plenty even with alot of hits. no changes just compiled the source http://bal3wolf.centelia.net/MINING/cgminer-veox-3.7.2.zipchanged the tcp_keepidle tcp_keepintvl to values for middlecoin http://bal3wolf.centelia.net/MINING/cgminer-veox-3.7.2-middle.zip |

I was under the impression you can not do load balancing when the two loads are different currencies, with different diff. Are you sure its not just only mining DOGE on eu now?
if you mine just on the us server and monitor you gpu usage you will see the usage drop then pick back up but when using load balance the gpu stays solid. I see what he is saying. It looks like we are mining DOGE by load balancing since it is just defaulting to the EU server, which has steady hashrates already. So are we really load balancing? well us server is mining somthing else eu is doing doge so with load balance we are mining both what eu and us provides, i do seem to get more work from eu then us cause of the getwork fails and anyone wants the compiled cgminer my www is in my sig with the mining tools anything with middle in it was patched to have the tcp_keepidle set to 5 and the tcp_keepintvl set to 4. Do you have a compiled version voor Unix as well availible? no but if you link me to the source but sounds like your using linux you should have tools to compile that already installed. |

Using both the US and EU servers is working well for me. I have them set using load balancing in cgminer which seems to submit more shares to the US server, but my miners never run out of work even during coin switches (less than 30 sec downtime in the last hour and a half).
Also, I am running cgminer 3.1.1 (on windows 7), which doesn't seem to have the disconnect, crash, and non-restart issues people are reporting with newer versions of cgminer. It's stable for at least a week on either server with all my rigs.
i will say using load balance now i dont see my gpus goin idle even tho im still getting getwork failures i did complile a few differt versions of cgminer with the changes h20 gave us.

Seems to be running inefficiently right now because of the coin alternating?
not responding, new block detected

With this amount of hashpower = accepted!
use one of the recompiled cgminers from me or the other guy that made them and add both eu.middlecoin.com and middlecoin.com to your cfg and use load balance that helps while you still get getwork failures gpu keeps having work and does not stop. Using both the US and EU servers is working well for me.

Running a few hours with this, and your recompiled cgminer, and I'm getting expected hash rates. Huzzah! Same for me 3.1.1 with load balance running really good still have gf but gpu never dips down and always has work.  |

Not complaining just saying.
Today was a lower payout than expected. I guess those who stayed on the US server will be getting better payouts if the chart is to be believed. I attempted to switch to the US server yesterday (I am based in the US) but even with the recompiled miner the connection interrupts and constant switching made my hashrate plummet so I thought it would be best to stick with the EU server.
i bouced between us and eu server last 2 days yesterday i made 31usd today i made 25usd with 2.3mhash. |

A tip that might be of interest to some others: Using load-balancing in cgminer seems to be smoothing out the frequent coin-switch disconnects on the US server: Config example: "pools" : [ { "quota" : "8;stratum+tcp://middlecoin.com:3333", "user" : "  ", "pass" : "x" }, { "url" : "stratum+tcp://eu.middlecoin.com:3333", "user" : " ", "pass" : "x" } ], "load-balance" : true This will get the majority of work (8/9) from the US server, and the other 1/9th from the EU server. When a disconnect happens on pool 0, you will usually have some work from pool 1 to switch to right away, so you lose a lot less hashing time vs sitting idle. It isn't perfect - still losing a bit of hash rate on switches, but it doesn't seem anywhere near as bad as without. i tested that out thru out the day and still get some getwork failures on us but not as bad with the recompiled cgminer and load balance im gettng 1 getwork failure every 3 mins right now so far better then it used to do. |

i think i found why i so many getwork failures on the us server doing a tracert i have 5 timeouts and the eu has none pings are higher but it has no timeouts and less hops does anyone else have problems like this ? middlecoin.com Tracing route to middlecoin.com [54.214.242.184]
