I'm considering opening my pool tonight so you can connect now, and then when the info is released for the main, I can make the switch and all the miners will update automatically.
On the flip side of the coin, doing so I am afraid will make the first blocks a cluster fuck of orphans and everyone will get pissed off.
Thoughts are more than welcome. My original thoughts were to wait until a couple of difficulty changes. Being as the time switch for most of us will be while we normally sleep, I thought one person awake might be better than all of us.
Oh, and if anyone wants some testnet coins, give me an address and I'll send you 10,000.
I'm inclined to ask you to wait for a day or so so we can get an established chain going. Difficulty initially will be low enough that no one would benefit from using a pool anyway. This hopefully will change quickly. |

I hope we get a second round to choose between the 2 most voted options. It'd be sad to end up launching at 3am just because GMT voters got spread over 3 day times.
If there's a close tie between the last 2 options. Would it make sense to launch halfway between them? that would be changing the rules of the vote halfway. Not fair. It is also very possible that the average would be very inconvenient for people who voted for the nearest time slot. For instance 1h more or less can make the difference between being at home and being at work. I agree. I say we release on exactly the moment that gets the most votes. It isn't convenient for me, but if we're going to make statements, we need to stick by them. |

The thing is, when someone makes a claim that Bitcoin is secure, it is believable because we know that people, you included, are able to see the source code and make sense of it, even if we can't.
With SC2, no one is even able to make that claim, let alone verify it.

./minerd --user 1 --pass 1 --url http://127.0.0.1:9332There is something on port 19333 when I try nmap and telnet Any idea what I may be doing wrong? Try the 9332 I have there the default as listed in first post the 19333 is the port to open in the router to get the connections to other miners for the testnet and you may want rpcport=9332 in the .conf as well just to be sure. That is how I have it, but I get the same error. My guess is that my ports are closed. With Fairbrix, this was solved with the creation of an IRC channel, I believe. I did not open any ports when testing and it went fine this was what I have for conf file for the built in miner it worked well.
miner6@miner6:~/src/litecoin-0.4.0-441/src$ cat ~/.litecoin/litecoin.conf
rpcuser=miners
rpcpassword=litecoin
rpcallowip=*
rpcport=9332
daemon=1
server=1
gen=1
testnet=1
Yeah the built in miner works well, but some people are going to want to use minerd, so it's a small kink to work out. |

I fucking hate Windows 7. Only because I don't use it so don't get the little changes still. I have no access to the Application Data folder, and even so the icon is just shortcut to something else. I was reading how Win7 changed the Doc and Settings to Users and other little changes, but it seems one of the changes is I have no actual Application Data folder. Sorry guys to throw this in the thread, if anyone knows the quick easy way around whatever this is, thanks. Otherwise I guess I will just make a master .conf file to copy and paste to every directory till the right one is found :p
I'll be throwing this on an XP machine I guess, but I am curious about what changes Win7 made with all this shit, I am way late to finding all this out lol
Make sure you are showing hidden files and folders. |
