Hey all!

New to coinage and dipping my toe in the water with some alt-coin solo mining to get my feet wet.  I successfully mined a few hundred Elephant coins.  Didn't take very long either which surprised me.  Any others you would suggest just to screw around?  I don't have the GPU horse power or money to do any serious mining of "real" coins so this is more for my own experimentation than anything.

Thanks!

Yeah.  Its essentially a worthless coin, but with such a low difficulty (0.02x) even I was able to mine some on a crappy laptop.
