Just want to replace old GPU farm (5850s).

These will be gifts to spread the word and teach people about coin.

Well which one is it?  Huh

Good luck finding them under $25 though!

There you go again. Instead of explaining why you think I was wrong, you just reuse someone elses ad hominem attack. Not even your own! I thought you told me you were done being an ass.

Anyway, I'm done. I know I am not the only one who is seeing this. I don't understand why, but this seems to be a divisive topic. I have laid it out in every way I know how, you guys are either going to understand what I'm saying or not.


It's not that we don't understand what you are saying.  It's that what you are saying is incorrect.  Several of us have tried to correct you over the past few pages of this topic.  You just refuse to believe that you are anything but 100% correct.

You have a misunderstanding of how mining works and it is clear from reading your posts.  You might understand statistics, but you need to stop getting defensive when someone corrects you or questions you.

Also, PMing me saying "sorry I made you feel stupid" is being more of an ass than pointing out that you don't comprehend the fundamentals of how mining works.  You didn't make me feel stupid yesterday.  You frustrated me because you simply don't understand how difficulty works and are constantly trying to belittle people for not understanding your incorrect logic and analysis.  We don't agree with each other and we have both tried to point it out several times.  You are still stuck on your averages and "building a share" logic which is just not correct.  I'm sorry you cannot see that and that you get upset when people attempt to explain it to you.

Best of luck to ya, mate!

I have the actual odds in my post

He is not interested in actual odds.  He is only interested in averages and times.  That's why it is impossible to argue with him.  

All miners produce diff 1 shares at the same speed relative to hashrate (let's ignore the variance there). They do this no matter what share difficulty is wanted by the pool. Every one of those shares has 1/pool_diff chance of being accepted by the pool. Saying "it would've taken 31 seconds to finally get that share, but because the block took only 30 seconds I never had a chance" is just blatantly wrong.

That doesn't make any sense. The whole point of a 512 diff rate is you send data to the server 1/512th of the time vs 1 diff. If they never get sent, how are they going to be accepted.

This make me think that you don't actually know what a nonce is or how difficulty mining works.

Mining a coin that isn't a reboot of a dead crapcoin.

How does that indicate a GPU miner? That makes zero sense..... One i5-3570k on stock clocks is 11 kh. That would calculate to 20 people mining. How does that translate to a GPU miner?

You really want reason from people who can't even read that it's not Scrypt? Cheesy

PS:  What is the name of this coin?  How many blocks can I find with using my TI-86 to mine this?

Good job!  I bet you were sweating in the 3rd when Adrian Beltre was about 5 inches from a 2-run homer.
To be honest, I had hit zona +117 risking 1.06 BTC so wasn't really paying much attention to houston. But glad it won haha.

As soon as I saw Dominguez homer the first thought I had was "Thank God he didn't let me play for credit" hahah

From CGMiner readme:

Quote
U:   The Utility defined as the number of shares / minute
WU:  The Work Utility defined as the number of diff1 shares work / minute
     (accepted or rejected).

Doesn't seem like WU is the hash that you "throw away for nothing" Huh

Edit:  I just checked several pools and it was all pretty much the same, even Middlecoin.  Might just be the coin we are mining now, though?  My hashrate is 750KH/s and the WU value was between 660-730.  Middlecoin was right around 710-720.



About the difficulty, I know what's right, and what's not. It's fine if people discuss it, because that will help bring them closer to the truth.

Just tell me I am right and give us a status update on diverting the hashrate to multiple coins Cheesy
1273  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com on: August 20, 2013, 09:43:02 PM
Actually, sQueeZey, I read it wrong.  You made some good valid points after I deciphered your text.  Although you have not quite mastered the art of the English language, you did help educate me on a few things regarding pooled mining so thank you for that!

When I think of pooled mining, I think of a pool difficulty.  When you compared that to solo mining BTC, I thought of a coin's  difficulty (IE the thing you get when you open the client and type "getmininginfo" or whatever).  

However, this still doesn't explain why the difficulty is "too high" at 512.   Are you saying that blocks would be found faster if the pool op lowered the difficulty?  Because if you are saying that then you are definitely incorrect.   Any submitted share could be a block.  That is correct.  However lowering the difficulty would only mean accepting more shares that aren't going to get the block reward.  If the nonce isn't accepted as a valid share at Diff=512 it might be a valid share at Diff=1, but it will still not get the block.   That is my understanding, but please correct me if I am wrong.

Why dont u guys start Solo-Mining BTC @ 50m Share-Diff when Difficulty doesnt matter?

Maybe because it takes ages to hit a 50m Diff Share?


U guys are clueless what u are taklin about, for real.

That's coin difficulty, not pool difficulty.

I don't think anyone has said coin difficulty doesn't matter... Huh

Edit:  nevermind, you are clearly trolling since there is no such thing as a share in solo mining Cheesy


Dude, u didnt understand how Pools work.

A pool is sth like a 'sub-network' for the total Network.
There is no  seperate 'Coin-Difficulty', there is a pool difficulty.
The difficulty of hitting a block is the standard network-diff.

No matter if u solomine or mine in a pool.

Now the pool-operator can set an own Pool-Difficulty in order to lower his Traffic/Bandwith/Load,
so HE has not to check if every submitted share is valid or not.
Basically diff=1 is the way to go because every share could be a valid block.

That causes alot of Pool-Load so the pool-ops go higher diff to sort out the trash on clientside.

Read some basics about that and come back to discuss.

[edit]
There is a kind of share, even when solomining. Every non-valid hash your Hardware produces is a 'share'.
It is just not submitted anywhere because ur mining-client knows what the target-difficulty is and that it is invalid.




Quoted so you can't change this crap later lol

I'll cover the rest for him if you want.

I won't know the exact amount until I get home and open up some wallets.

Feel free to take the full bet if you want.

Okay, well I will check again before 7.

Good luck!  And I miss your picks, although I have been hitting really well lately myself Smiley

Sorry man not trying to do credit, I'm an ass chasing owed money just FYI. If you get the funds though let me know.

I understand.  I'll let you know after I check my alt-coin balances and see if I can come up with the coin. 

Would you consider doing a smaller amount, say .3 to .4 ?


1279  Economy / Gambling / Re: I am looking to bet Houston FF Runline +0.5, Arizona FF Runline +0.5 TONIGHT on: August 20, 2013, 07:55:27 PM
Jeez, I want to take you up on that Houston bet... but I just spent all of my BTC.  Don't think I have 0.5 left after I make a purchase this evening.

PM me if you would take a credit bet.  I'll give you +140 so my .7btc (paid next week after I convert from fiat) to your .5btc

Rangers gonna wallop them Astros again tonight Cheesy

Well we can just agree to disagree.

What you are describing is illogical as it doesn't matter either way.

Would you rather have a dollar per share or four quarters?  lol

Cut the difficulty in half so we can all have twice as many shares!  More profitssss.... wait Huh
