How is it a "scam"?
I believe my first post explained this clearly.

Who got ripped off, who lost money, who was misrepresented, who gained/profited?
The donors were ripped off, because they were led to believe it would be used to reward the results of a sane/fair poll.
Or is it just a scam because you didn't like the nominees?
My main point is that all these very valid candidates were in fact nominated, and BitcoinBetas assured us that he would moderate the vandals taking them off the wiki-spreadsheet before making his final lists of candidates. Then instead of doing so, he went and ran with what was de facto a very vandalized "nomination list".

This hack of a patch will add prevout to 'gettransaction', which you can lookup on Block Explorer even before your transaction confirms, to see your sending address.
Code:
diff --git a/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp b/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp
index 09be73a..9c6edf3 100644
--- a/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp
+++ b/src/bitcoinrpc.cpp

     if (wtx.IsFromMe())

+entry.push_back(Pair("prevout", wtx.vin[0].prevout.ToString()));
+
     WalletTxToJSON(pwalletMain->mapWallet[hash], entry);
 
     Array details;

I suggest people who can't figure this all out, post your transaction ID Wink

Emailed to BitcoinBetas's "award" winners:
Quote from: luke-jr
I couldn't find emails to CC some people. If you know how they can be reached, please forward them this email. Not CC'd winners:
  SilkRoad, CosbyCoin, Platos, Wired, Phinnaeus Gage, Atlas, and MyBitcoin.com

Since BitcoinBetas's award ceremony was clearly operated as a scam, would you guys (who won the polls) be willing to donate your winnings to a newly organized awards ceremony for the same purpose, in hopes of holding it fairly?
Obviously if you really deserve the award, you will just get it back anyway.

Please see https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=57325.0 for details.

3968  Economy / Marketplace / "Bitcoin Awards/Favorites of 2011" a scam... but a good idea on: January 09, 2012, 07:35:05 PM
As should be obvious by now (I guess the poll will tell how obvious...), the Bitcoin Awards for 2011 run by BitcoinBetas is a complete scam. Since the general idea of having an awards contest is a good idea, I am asking all the winners to redonate the winnings to a new contest run fairly - by whom? I don't know, any volunteers?

Anyhow, obvious poll options missing from BitcoinBetas's polls (and yes, they were nominated):
  • BTCGuild
  • ABCPool.co
  • Eligius
  • yourbtc.net
  • p2pool
  • poclbm
  • Amir Taaki
  • Art Forz
  • Jeff Garzik
  • Joel Katz
  • Luke Dashjr
  • Mark Karpeles
  • Martti Malmi
  • Matt Corallo
  • Michael Marquardt
  • Mike Hearn
  • Nils Schneider
  • Patrick McFarland
  • Pieter Wuille
  • Satoshi Nakamoto (he wasn't really involved in Bitcoin in 2011 I guess)
  • BitEgg/BitPizza
  • Coincard/Coinpal

(before asking "who?", see https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/People )

Furthermore, when I brought up the concern of vandalism during nominations, I was told it was under control and not to worry about it. When I pointed out these major problems immediately after the poll options were public, BitcoinBetas basically said he had no clue about these obvious choices, and refused to fix it.

Testing welcome: https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/pull/69

This one isn't simple, and probably doesn't bring much hashrate improvement. It does, however, prepare the way for mining with ButterFly Labs's BitForce Single FPGA miner. Wink

The relation between Eligius miners and CLC, is the same relationship as between Eligius miners and Joe Drugdealer's money laundering (that he is abusing Bitcoin to accomplish).

Thank you kindly, sir. That loop optimization looks great with one less comparison to make.
Actually, the optimization there is trivial and has no net effect. What's important is the bugfix so it doesn't discard all shares starting with FF in the nonce Wink

What algorithm does the pool use when sending LP messages? Biggest miners first? Random?
Not random, but might as well be. At one point, I modified pushpool to prioritize the more efficient clients (ie, rollntime+noncerange), but I'm not sure if that's live right now. A few months ago, I began writing Eloipool, a very-fast modular Python pool server, and the first with internal work generation (even before PSJ), but I had to turn it off when I enabled NMC merged mining (because Eloipool doesn't support it yet), and the JSON-RPC Server module is very quickly thrown together and cannot handle more than a handful of connected clients. I'd love to get it finished, which would probably solve most of the stales and related issues, but I haven't been able to justify the time as of late. If anyone wants to help, I have the code up on Gitorious...

If you want to have an opinion on SolidCoin at least make sure it's based in reality and factual eh.
Like the fact that #SolidCoin operators (in this case, yourself) kickban people for no reason whatsoever?

The pool is under heavy enemy fire ^^
Sir Chivalrous Luke the Crusader, the bravest of anti-altcoin knights, seems to have pissed off great many folks. An angry mob with pitchforks is besieging castle Eligius right now.
Actually, I haven't noticed any problems from that. I did have trouble applying the bugfix for makomk's exploit, but that shouldn't have lasted very long.
Come to EclipseMC!  Wink
That's just uncalled for. Moderate yourself appropriately. :p

While there are personal attacks in this thread which are bad, most of the discussion of what was done with the pool and coilcoin (or whatever it is) are relevant to the topic of the pool and should not be deleted.
Why does it seem like people don't read anything? The Coiledcoin nonsense is NOT RELATED TO THE POOL.

FWIW, I will prosecute any false reports to the full extent of law. And since I have not broken any laws, all such reports are false.
