I have known miners not to connect before, using a previous worker name. Just delete the worker, add a new one, and off you go.

True, I thought KNCs Titan would have a big impact, truth is they screwed it up BIG TIME (along with screwing their customers) 

Yep, keep calm and mine on ... review your monthly/weekly stats (don't do daily) ... averages work out. The pool is gradually picking up faster hash rate.

EDIT: Pool stats are coming back up nicely.

Have the pool website stats gone down? I'm seeing zeros for all stats, workers, pool speed, hash rate, shares, network last block etc.

Miners are reporting that they are still hashing though.

Just me? Anyone else?

An observation ... moved some S3's over to the pool earlier today, and it's taken about 3 hours before they are showing their correct individual hash rate.

However, my expected combined total hash rate shown was pretty spot on after 30 minutes.

Spondoolies miners show their correct individual hash rate much quicker.

All are on stratum+tcp://stratum81.kano.is:81

Good morning ... and on the other side of the world ... I'm about to go to bed.

I'd be interested to know how much louder the S4 is to the S2 (S3s are perfect). Don't have my S2's anymore, but I remember the sound, which was OK with me (as I do remember the sound of the SP10s, and yes they went into hosting).

The S5 is clouded in secrecy for the moment, I maybe wrong, but I'm guessing:

1) Liquid cooled for the home miner.
2) Only available via hashnest?

We'll see.

I'll check and let you know, (when did you remove it?), given the length of blocks these days they sometimes 'pop' whilst I'm away. Pretty sure it caught me out last week.

*EDIT: Well there you go, whilst I was typing that we get another block, and didn't have the https://bitminter.com/livestats/big page up.

Yep, use it all the time ... trouble is (when I hear the sound) ... I check the computer .. is it NMC or BTC?

Bummer when it's NMC .. how about different sounds for different currency? (Just an idea).

@ Sponds ... Just an observation ...

The new price on the SP20 at $795 with an additional $80 discount for repeat customers only lasts for 72 hours.

The sales email says "Not sure which power supply to select? We'll be adding a PSU guide in the next couple of days..".

Now PSUs have been discussed here on the forum, but not all of your customers are members here. If it takes 48 hours to post PSU recommendations on your site, then only 24hrs remain to order (presuming the PSU guide does get listed in 48hrs).

People will need time to research costs etc.

Now that is an interesting comment, no idea if it carries any weight though.

As usual in mining, only time will tell and the overall luck and variance from week to week and month to month will give the bigger picture about this rather lucky (at present?) pool.

Hello ... we have a new heavyweight on the block (no pun intended) ... bitasch, ever increasing firepower as I watch, hope you'll be around for a few days to bust the 7 red out of 10 last blocks solved.

 EDIT: Gone as quick as they arrived ...

Just found this thread, and watching  ... interesting 

Ditto as well ... but I don't think this problem ever showed on the SP10s, it's a SP30/31 thing and maybe now the SP20. (Stand to be corrected if I'm wrong).

SP10 ... solid as a rock!

Most likely liquid cooled again, looks like liquid bubbles behind the S5 lettering.

All ASICS are out of stock, scrypt apparently available, not sure I have seen these guys mentioned on the forum before?

Scary picture for sure ...

Brings a whole new meaning to 'Hot aisle/cold aisle'.

Ahh, give it to them, they got balls for their future business plan "by pushing 300-400 petahash into the market quickly in Q1 2015, and growing our presence from there, we triple or quadruple the difficulty for a limited time, to achieve a new efficiency standard in mining and on the blockchain'.

*WARNING*

I have miners with jtoomim that have 'interesting characteristics' and at times need attention, jtoomim have (in my opinion) unrivaled knowledge (maybe apart from Sponds themselves) and are more than worthy of being quoted as a hosting partner on the Spondoolies site.
