.. I was trying to implement this, it's not so that difficult, but with a problem, I have no easy way to stop people from spamming the faucet with different subdomains, e.g. one hold example.com would use aa.example.com and bb.example.com pointing to the same site to apply the faucet payment, I have no good way to determine if they are the same site, and one may generate infinite subdomains as long as he own the domain name. ..
After talking to Ranlo, no easy way to determine the popularity of a site could be found. So you could only pay people for a link on a domain homepage. That is all that is required for the current domain faucet bounty. Later on if there is more interest, a subdomain faucet bounty would be added for you to make tracking code, or give more money to sites that you manually verify, and then your faucet could also pay for subdomains and/or pay more for popular sites. If we're talking about the value of backlinks, why not use Google's own metric, which is Google Pagerank? It's their measure of how powerful a domain is - Facebook has a pagerank of 10 while some minor sub-domain with no links has a pagerank of 0. It's an exponential scale - so a site with pagerank of 1 is ten times more powerful than a site with pagerank 0, a site with pagerank 2 is 100 times more powerful than a site with pagerank 0, etc. Also pagerank is calculated on a page by page basis (i.e. they don't just assess the domain. So you can look-up the exact page with a link to devtome. See the following page for how to pull the api for Google pagerank: https://code.google.com/p/seostats/But why would we take PR as being a value of anything? Nobody uses PR as a true value of worth of a domain. It has a very slight impact on some things, but is nothing to worry about. A PR0 site can easily outrank a PR10 site going for the same keywords, depending on how each of them is optimized. Don't be fooled by the FUD put out by Google ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Pagerank still rules. I have a lot of websites - and while their content is excellent they all need backlinks to rank, and high pagerank links too. Forget about domains - always, always assess pagerank by individual page. Sure a PR0 page from a PR10 domain may be outranked by a PR0 page from a PR0 domain if the latter has better onsite SEO. But a PR10 page will always outrank a PR0 page unless the former has been manually penalised by Google. I was proposing assessing the incoming links page by page rather than based on the domain. This isn't the right place for this discussion I guess, but you are entirely wrong in your assessment. Do you need some backlinks to rank? Actually, this is also wrong, :p. Though backlinks do help. But ranking has absolutely 0 to do with PR. You can have a PR10 PAGE that is outranked by a PR0 PAGE. It all depends on how you have it optimized.

Now then... is there any chance you can implement a manual withdraw process? I'd rather let things build up a bit rather than have smaller payments coming more often. I'm sure I'm not the only one!
that's a valuable suggestion!! >on the inspiration list - if executed 20000 Instant Satoshis and 50 tickets your way!i recon it would be a while until we get there, though... there's a shitload of things we also need to implement for the administration side ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) we have implemented a feature that lets players "halt" their payouts in order to accumulate more BTC before receiving payments to their walletyou will find the feature in your player stats' expanded details. @ranlo: your reward has been credited! we have just made another payout to our players. surprisingly many of you (including last round's grand prize winner) are already "halting" their payments... great to see this feature find so much response! It's great to see that it wasn't just me wanting it, too! It's nice being able to "bank" the satoshis instead of having a lot of smaller payments.

Uppie! If you happen to dislike the site, please take a minute to send me a PM detailing your problems/suggestions for it!

Yes, if lending you 1 BTC will produce me 0.2 BTC this week and 0.18 BTC next week, etc. PMBs (or PMTs) can be profitable if the price is low enough, but so far no PMB on the market (not even DMS.MINING) is.
This right here. I was actually questioning around a week ago why people were buying into this and what I was missing, based on the math that proved that if you bought in now you would never see your return. People continued saying it was a good deal and I almost jumped in on it, but I decided to go with my own mathematical instinct and went against it. I don't think TaT has done anything wrong. This is like someone coming up with a business idea that is bound to fail, you investing, and getting pissed off at them because your money was lost. There is always a risk. Always. Even if you were able to invest in a new Wal-Mart being built, there is still a risk. As far as I can tell, TaT has followed through with everything he said he would. Does that make it a good investment? Not necessarily. But it's not like he hid information or anything. It was clearly laid out that each bond was worth 1 MH/s. Anyone who knows even the basics about mining knows that 1 MH/s, with difficulty constantly climbing, will keep getting less and less valuable. There is a fiduciary duty in issuing securities. In simple english, the issuer, and the exchange have a responsibility to a) have a reasonable expectation that buyers will make a capital gain in the issued security and b) work diligently to ensure that a) actually comes to pass. Both TAT and Uyko violated this principle. It certainly isn't illegal. It is dishonorable. I won't ever deal with either person again since they are clearly untrustworthy. Bitcoin investors are missing fundamentals here. You need to look at price to book value before buying. TAT.V had no assets, only a promise that he would use asicminer stocks that buyers had no claim on to fund dividends. That made the price to book value infinite. The latest mining bond is being issued at $400 / GH/s when the issuer ordered the hashpower at $20 / GH/s. Price to book is 20, a terrible deal. AMC is much worse than that! I was under the impression that people who jumped on this soon after it came out made profit. If this is true, then TaT is still not responsible because he did not raise the prices; the security holders did. He has no control over whether or not someone wants to buy a security at a higher price. If someone offered $10,000 per share right now, that is none of his business. So how can he possibly be held responsible if their $10k share did not earn that much in dividends? I may be missing something big here... as I'm seeing this there is still not any problem.

Hello,
I really like your pool and its multi-pool concept. Any chance you will add PPCoin to go along with Terracoin and then perform auto switching between these two SHA-256 types?
I think this would be cool too ^ ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) TRC is adjusting difficulty on every found block - I'm not even sure it would make any sense to switch in and out of it, unless there there significant power inside the pool so it can find a block with high probability before difficulty adjusts. Total TRC Network is about 300 MHS, so if multipool would have about 150, it could work. Would also be nice to have 2-3 TH/s and mine BTC as a baseline and switch in and out of TRC/PPC when it is profitable. Good point. I knew TRC difficulty changed a lot, I just didn't realize it changed on every block. But I wouldn't give up totally on adding PPC (and BTC when the hashrate grows enough). Instead my thought is to create switching logic that looks at PPC only: when PPC is above BTC profit levels, mine PPC; and when PPC is below BTC profit levels, mine TRC. Of course this is just my $.02 and I have absolutely no knowledge in this, so maybe this idea makes no sense ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I think the switching would be annoying though. Essentially what I see happening is when Multipool switches over, difficulty goes up a lot. This causes MP to switch back, so difficulty goes back down. It would create an ever-repeating cycle... I'm not so sure. I don't think PPC difficulty changes that fast and it has a much higher hashrate than many of the smaller alt coins on Multipool, so I'm guessing it wouldn't quickly switch back and forth. Also, since switching is automatic it shouldn't be annoying. In fact I think that's the point. As I understand it, profit and difficulty correlate (at least to a degree) so Multipool tries to optimize by always going for the coin with the highest profit/lowest difficulty. Then when it's no longer the highest profit/lowest difficulty, it automatically switches to the coin that is. No annoying action required on your part at all and you very likely get better results than you would hashing away at an altcoin type while it has higher difficulty than average. But then again, I could be totally wrong ![Undecided](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/undecided.gif) There is a period of a minute or so in between switches where the GPU's have to try and catch up (they pretty much power down during the couple seconds the switch is happening, and then have to rev back up and get information processing). While the switching is automatic, there would be a lot of down time by going back and forth a lot.

BTW, on the referral side, what rank were we this time? :p
under all referrers in the passed week, you ranked #7 with 219 visits, under those passing a ref-value you ranked #2 Awesome. Thanks! Oddly enough building traffic has been a bit tougher than I expected. It appears some people dislike the rotator but won't tell why, lol.

If I ever get a console again, the price would have to be down a lot, just because of the subscriptions involved when you have actually bought the console. In fact, I don't think I would even play on line. I would most likely play single player games. I doubt I will get a console because for me needs I don't see the point.
Certainly, a shame as I did like the PS3 & Xbox 360. Just because they were mainly for gaming. I did prefer PS3. After experiencing both of them the PS3 was much faster and more responsive. For graphics and game capabilities, they are pretty much the same. Xbox had better communications and more people playing on line and was a lot cheaper than the PS3 at the time.
However, The PS4 is indeed cheaper than the xbox and offers everything related to gaming as the Xbox does. Except the Kinect which is **** anyway.
Consoles are the only way to play the awesome RPG's, which sucks. I wish more RPG's were ported over to the PC. As it is, you really have to rely on consoles for certain game genres.

What most likely happened was a kid had a small bit of BTC, nothing else really to his name. When entrusted with everyones BTC he went and gambled off the record to try and win more. Probably ended up losing it all then to continue "degen-ing" he scammed some people in the currency section. Hes now disappeared obviously.
Makes sense, though he was doing pretty well on here at least (with the bets he claimed), so it's a bit odd that he would throw it all away. I know for a fact more people would have invested in him, and the amount he could have made off this (just by taking, say 10% of profits) would be massive. And if he lost it all, it had no consequence for him. I would LOVE the chance to be in a situation where I can risk other people's money without any risk to myself, and still get paid a portion of any winnings I get.

10.399 bitcoins of mine disappeared too. I had two factor authentication on as well. They were sent to an external account even before the receipt of the coins had switch from pending to complete. Here's a screen shot, http://postimg.org/image/i5tojn2wt/full/This is exactly what happened to me. I have been able to hear back from Coinbase and they have been extremely helpful, here is the latest news I received: We've now discovered that this is a software bug, and that your bitcoin was not stolen. However, we're still trying to figure out how this happened. Thanks for bearing with us while we figure this out! It's great to know they got back to you and that this wasn't too big of a problem (erm... I guess it kind of is, but they seem to have it under control). They're still trying to resolve the email spam though, and as far as I can tell that's been going on for over a month, ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) .

Okay. I give in. I need an extra 0.03 BTC for a transaction. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif) Here's my BTC address. 16gMQRWzUF39vhpiYajxb8Z6uv3Rgr3trnThis is why. You haven't had it for a month. Oh. Sorry. I was mentally estimating there. Pretty damn close, but alas, no cigar. 18 out of 30 days is just over half. Not even close, lol.

No, I'm wasn't asking how to make it, but how would an IRC server definitely take off?
I'm thinking the idea behind it (at least for me) would be that you can connect a mIRC client to multiple servers. So if you are already an IRC chatter you can have one window open for the rooms you usually visit, plus the new ones. Paid up to here. So do I not qualify for a payout? If not, what do I need to fix?
