Depends on if your computer fans sounds like a humm or some jets taking off.

You could be particularly resourceful and use the vibrations to rock yourself to sleep, or even better use the wasted heat to power some kind of steam engine capable of powering more bitcoin miners.
The applications are endless...

Angry girlfriend trashing the machines because of the noice? Hence the family emergency?

Personally I find the sound of computers humming away rather soothing, anyone who doesn't is just simply outrageous Tongue

well it's good to see its back up to 12367.12 now

i am curious as to why though

People like using unity3d because of the integrated assets management system (you can load assets on the web player as the game plays), and its integration with many socket servers used for MMOs

My opinion is not to use unity3d because there is nothing special about it's 2d system, and focus on flash because of its simplicity (now that I think about it, Unity3d is like the flash for 3d games)

There are some HTML5 game engines out there (but not that you need them) but I'm not sure about support for socket servers. You would have to either use a modified web server or code something yourself and it adds a whole new level of pain.

All these pre-built socket servers are built for flash, unity3d, java etc
Smartfoxserver is already used in club penguin and many other popular games, I think its only extend-able with ActionScript and Java and is script based
http://www.smartfoxserver.com/

Photon (my personal fav) is very similar to SmartfoxServer but is much more extend-able and relies on compiled libraries, so it supports your c++

<just some recommendations to speed up the process>

I agree here, there are countless numbers of people asking professionals about 'writing an MMORPG from scratch with a bunch of friends'

A project like that is massive beyond comprehension. I suggest starting with something smaller and extending the gameplay from there.

Also, are you programming in flash as with Realm of the Mad God? I have much experience with java, and most C based languages, as well as PHP and ActionScript 2 when it was popular, but have since moved on (from actionscript). I would love to help with bug fixes/patches and some minor help for free if your interested.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trojan_%28condoms%29

Trojan is a brand name of condoms manufactured by the Church & Dwight Company. 70.5 percent of condoms purchased in United States drugstores are Trojan contraceptives.

personally I believe if a Trojan programmer was able to harness a GPU easily and automatically then mining will definitely become much more difficult, but at the moment its a non-option

For now.....  Embarrassed

perhaps the problem is the bitcoin application has not fully collected the latest block chain

At the bottom of the bitcoin application it should state how many blocks it has received from the network. At the moment of this post the block count should be 136841, but with your transaction it can be around 136700 and still show up. If the block count is less, the client is still collecting the block chain, and should eventually retrieve the block with your transaction in it (the number should be increasing).

If it has got the full block chain I recommend you restart the bitcoin application with the -rescan option, using command prompt with windows or terminal with Linux or mac (I'm no mac user so correct me if I'm wrong)

At the moment you would need about 30GH/s to get approx. 1 block a day or 50 btc a day.
With how difficult it is to install opencl with an unattended installation, most botnets would be using CPU mining on their bots, probably getting 1 MH/s a pop

to get 30GH/s, or 30,000MH/s, a botnet owner would need (rather obvious now) 30,000 bots running a miner to start getting a steady income (with a mining server all their own). Not only that, but 30,000 connections is a bit much for a standard server, so the owner would require a massive server just to manage all the shares.

Until someone figures out a way to harness GPU power without complex opencl installations, it just isn't feasible. (unless of course the owner used an already mining pool that doesnt require registration, and then send all the coins to himself, but thats just ABSURD  Grin )

they already have been put out, although at the moment they use already established pools (like deep bit) that already have in built protection against many IP connections (like botnets/Trojans).
However, they can still run a mining server themselves to generate the coins, but they would require MUCH more power before they can get a steady income.
At the moment, and for the foreseeable future, its unprofitable.

i must say that is a rather perplexedly peculiar situation you have there

First off, does the payout show up in http://mining.bitcoin.cz/accounts/transactions/ ?
You can click on the transaction there to show the status on blockexplorer.

How long have you waited for the payment to go through? Sometimes they can take hours for a miner to include the transaction in a block.

My parching 5870M processor producing 150 MH/s which people may predict is predominately pedantic.
