You guys really should checkout the other forum. It's been great to keep up to date and have direct contact with the rest of the Drillbit team (not just Barn) especially when BitcoinTalk went down. As Barn mentioned here the other day, all the updates and ongoing discussion with the engineers and the repair guys is happening over there.
To summarize, they think they have a solution bypassing the issue using an added linear regulator and are doing extensive tests now. We're all just waiting to hear back from the AU team.
So it's still not sorted out. Oh well, hopefully it wont be too many more days. I'm wagering next year. They already have them running for a day or two with the linear regulators. Repair teams in EU and US are ready for the say-so from AU... So how much you want to wager? Any idea on a part number? I'd like to source this. Also, does this mean we no longer need the inductors replaced? (And I guess I can cancel the regulator order) I don't understand why you ordered parts before they had solved the problem? I guess they are not expensive.

Why has BTC/USD halved in price over the past 24hrs? What news have I missed?

Is there any kind of estimated turn around for the boards sent in for repair? I don't have a feel for how many there are or how long the repair takes.
Do they know what the fault is yet? Last I heard they replaced the inductor and it failed again. Then someone said the regulator chip isn't cooled properly.

"To receive support for any user fault will require $50 to $100 equiv in fees that will be given back to the exchange in payouts like any other fee. This is to encourage people to be more careful with their login details. Furthermore, failure to be logged into an account for 2 months will see that account destroyed and all funds returned to mcxNOW as fees. This is a big change and will require you to agree to new terms and conditions to continue using the site. These changes are designed to make people more self reliant and less bothersome to mcxNOW. If you do not like these new rules it is advised you stop using mcxNOW."
Wtf is this... I've never used mcxNOW, but I certainly won't use it now that they're adding this stuff.
This is literally the worst exchange ever if they actually implement those things. It was already sketchy just because RealSolid was running it, this is just icing on the cake.
It actually makes it dangerous to simply deposit any coins into this exchange. You might not be able to access the site for a few months - and your coins are gone. The worst thing they could have done indeed. Ther is already a long list why you shouldn't deposit coins into mcxNOW, these new reasons are just on top of that. You have an anonymous unstable pool owner that wants people to invest millions into coins which can't be used on any other site or stored in a block chain. That should be reason enough. mcxNOW is like a disreputable pub in a bad neighborhood, it attracts a certain kind of clientele if you know what I mean.

Is there any way to disable the 5min pool stability check that was introduced in 3.5.1? It's playing havoc with multi pools that auto switch to the most profitable coin periodically, as the switch interrupts the stratum for 15-20sec which invokes the 5min stability check.

Cool idea to reflate the good old dmark.
I would like to mine them but I am using a mac and cgminer is only available for windows. Is there another way to mine them with mac os?
Thanks!
Not so, I have cgminer for a Mac. Search harder, there are threads on it in this forum.

This was from Jody's blog a week ago: Thanksgiving Blog by BFL_Jody 11-28-2013 at 04:31 PM
Jalapenos 5 gh/s: All jalapeņos shipping in the next few days
Little Singles 25 gh/s and 30 Upgrades: ALL CAUGHT UP
Single 50 gh/s and 60 Upgrades: ALL CAUGHT UP
MiniRigs: ALL CAUGHT UP I have received all the BFL units I had on order and they have paid for themselves. Not sure if units purchased now would pay for themselves, certainly not mining just BTC.

The only thing I am still noticing is some minor lag.
Haven't seen the issues you guys are crying about and my support tickets are getting answered pretty quickly.
I've deposited, withdrawn and traded LTC, FTC, CAP, GLD, GLX, IXC and PXC in fairly large amounts.
Again no real issues other than speed.

I tried to buy and sell WDC/BTC by actually clicking on existing order in the books, my orders get placed, no trade occurs even though I can still see the orders I was selecting in the books, half an hour later I cancel my orders and go to another exchange to trade.

You realize is was the central bank in China making the announcement, all central banks hate Bitcoin as they can't print it, they have to buy it like everyone else, they are not use to that level playing field so they will do whatever they can to hinder Bitcoin or any other decentralized currency, the word central isn't in their name for decoration.

fxbtc is doing the same. looks like nobody is aware about this I really need to know what's going on with the API because it redirects to a cloudflare DDoS protection page before redirecting to the API. I'm not sure if there's meant to be an easy way around this through Java but I haven't found a way yet. What's the point of an API that can only be viewed in a browser.
CoinEX, you're losing business for every day I can't access your API. I'm sure I'm not the only one who needs the API working.
Ok, the problem is not the API, it's that CoinEx have added Cloudflare's Browser integrity check feature in between http://coinex.pw/api/v1/ticker/ and the outside world. CloudFlare's Browser Integrity Check requires that you have javascript enabled, which anyone using the API will not. They have stuffed up.

Why are the Buy prices higher then the Sell prices in WDC/BTC? It's been like that for days.
first thing they should have done is to disable API, to keep bots from hogging all the resources with chump change transactions.
Well what you actually do is first work out if the API is hogging the resources. Most likely it's the thousands of page click and refreshes I would say, and not the API unless it was under attack.

Net Hashrate 3474 and price on Coinex is near 0.0001 When this coin will hit Cryptsy will skyrocket Cryptsy look like they have their hands full with the sudden boom in alt coins causing massive new registrations hence thousands of support tickets to answer. Not sure if they have the time to add any new coins.

I think I read that all non-US boards being shipped by Barntech have gone out, were they sent with tracking #'s? I'm confused as to whether my board has been shipped... Batch 1, Canada...
If the board arrives in 2 weeks, how will I know if it was repaired before it shipped or not?? Will a note be included in the boards that were repaired before shipping?
These are exactly my issues, I am in Australia and have not had a shipment from Drillbit yet, and I was in batch#1.

Cryptsy, might I suggest that you disable new user registrations until such time that you have your service working properly. These problems just seem to go on and on. If, as it's claimed, most problems are due to an influx of new users, then the solution is rather obvious.
