Well you have been mining for yourself. So you didn't really lose anything but the chance of renting it to someone who does add multiple pools. So, if I were you, I would make how long he did mine on his pool before it went dead. And give a partial refund based on that subtracted with a small amount because you could have rented it to someone else instead of him.
That's called service. But if the custimer doesn't respond to your emails. It's his problem, not yours tbh...

I haven't reached even 0.01BTC/MH in the last 4 days on middlecoin, including today. Nor do I have a large build up of unexchanged like the main pool has, so I wont have a good day in the future making up for it either, I don't know why it is this much lower than the rest of the mc miners, my accepted shares are right where they have to be. Overall Middlecoin did average me over 0.015 except for last week. But I like the idea of having a stable income and being payed up front. I probably wont go below 0.015btc/MH for renting though, there wouldn't be a difference with mining for myself.

I noticed that once the first pool of the customer is dead, it switches perfectly over to the 2nd pool of the customer. But when the first pool comes back up, it seems like it doesn't ever switch back to it.
So I assume you don't have a failover system in place like cgminer does? Meaning it switches back to the first pool if it is back up. I am pretty sure the customers would like to see that implemented.

Also, to all renters if you are happy with the service of a rig owner, pls don't forget to give a reply in his/her trust thread. Greatly appreciated!

This only happens with Bamt right? My normal xubuntu shouldn't have problems?

Ok cool, be sure to add hashing speed too. Rigs might be online but have a dead or sick gpu. To give customers a refund or extra leasetime we would need to know how long the hashpower dropped.

And just to make sure, I am happy with your site, just want to help and give some suggestions :-)

Not using Windows, nor will I. I like running Xubuntu from a small usb stick + I want SSH. 
+ Reading a log after the lease is pointless. I want to check it during the lease when I encounter a problem so that I would be able to give extended minutes in return for the downtime.
Once the lease is over, it would be too late.

Suggestion:

Add a way to check the status history of the machine by the owner (not necessarily the customers). If the machine had technical issues or downtime of a dead gpu or whatever, the rig's owner can't check how long the downtime was (unless he has some sort of monitoring software). Normally you can check your pool stats, but obviously you can't when rented. 

A graph or something would be nice.

Is it normal that I can now see the renters worker name and ip of his pool?
I used to be only able to see rigname.lease or something.

I can also see all his/her backup pools AND worst thing is. I can remove them. They are in my pool list as usual pools. I find that odd. When cgminer is restarted it also doesn't necessarily take the renters pool if I myself have pools in that list (obviously those would be at the bottom and only work if all pools of renter are dead).

I feel it's strange that the one who is renting his rig can check or at least remove the pools of the customer. Obviously the owner of the rig could just change his cgminer settings if he has bad intentions, but enabling it on the website is just another option to make mistakes.

I do agree that there should be a way to check if the customer's pools are actually alive or that indeed the rig is mining for the customer as should be.

Just rented for my first 24h. That is correct indeed.

Is the issue already resolved where when cgminer is restarted that the correct pool (the one of the customer) is connected to again? And also his/her backup pools?

same question. Should it be in the shell  file which I use to start or in the config? All my settings are in the config. Or is it actually best to not give restart privileges to the customer? Because in all honestly my rig never goes down (been stable 4 weeks without any issues), only a manual reboot once a week is what I do.

Hi,

is there anyway to check that the rig is actually mining for the person that  paid for it? It does say lease.myrigname. But it's mining on pool 2 apparently wich looks like it is middlecoin. But that is my default? Or is it the failover from the customer that is also middlecoin? Any way to check?
I want to make sure that it is the customer mining and not me...

Thx

Please add all trades and deals that you had with me. Thx! 

Don't want to spoil but...
You have 2.4MH/s as I read above and u made 0.13098332 BTC in 11 days?! That means 0,004924BTC/MH/s, seems very low to me...

I asked this in the other thread but just realised that I probably should ask it here...

Can you setup multiple pools as default pool (failover)?
My current batfile sets up all the pools and clockspeeds and cgminer settings, do I keep this or do I have to add all those settings (with or without pools?) to the config instead of the batfile?

If u restart cgminer from api, it probably wont take the settings in the batfile right? Or can I tell the website to use the batfile?

-edit- once someone is set up and pm'd you the details and gets allowed to rent his rig, does the website do an api test to make sure everything works as is expected? I wouldn't want ppl leasing my rig having problems because I did something wrong (probably wont happen, but you never know) the first time. Don't want ppl to pay me and end up feeling cheated, it's a good service for ppl renting rigs if I see those prices.

Can I set more than 1 default pool? Currently I am using a backup pool, is that possible for the default pool? Can I keep all my current settings (including default pools) and just add the lines that are given in the topicstarter?

After the lease it should just fall back to its default pools right? Or do I have to add the default pools in a special way?

Thx

Hey,

I am very interested in renting one of my rigs aswell. It runs at 1.54MH/s. Are people paying 0.025 per MH? meaning I would get 0.0385BTC for 24h or are the prices on the website for the total hashpower?

I tried to sign up, but there was no captcha so I couldn't register. Or do I have to do that through here?

Thx

I don't game all that much though. But I cant change voltages on my card with afterburner. The card is locked Gigabyte 280x oc. So I have been changing them with VBE7 and reflashing the bios every time, bit of a hassle I admit. What I do for gaming is use the primary bios, the 280x has dual bios so I use the default one for gaming and the undervolted one for mining. Just reboot and flip the switch when I want to play a game. It's not about the fps, I only play silly games, the problem is that it crashes within 2 minutes, once I up the voltage a bit, the problem is resolved. But running cgminer on stock speeds or stock voltages crashes too. The VRM's of the Gigabyte 280x REV 1 get too hot while mining although the core is very cool, I believe I read that the rev 2 has less problems with it.

Now that I bought the 2 Dual x 280x Sapphires more than 2 weeks ago, I wish I didn't buy the Gigabyte, they hash faster and don't have any crashing problems nor do they use as much power as the Gigabyte (even when on default voltages and overclocked they use only slightly more power than the Gigabyte). The Gigabyte also suffers from artefacts while mining, I get grey squares all over the screen when mining, quiet annoying (it's a known problem with many of them). Got a 7970 Asus DCT comming tomorrow I'll let you know what the performance is of that one.
