Hi there everyone.
What I wanted to say now after battling this for 3 hours or remote on 3 of my rigs that I have put on Max mining with cgminer 3.6.6, that if you will want to switch back, he has your operating system and will take your hashes away.

Meaning: on each rig which was performing 620Khash at least per card on ltc mining, after I switched (and no I havent downloaded from some shady place, its original place) back to ltc mining at lest 2 of my cards report hashing of ~400 one and ~550 other. I could say that my cards are f... up if I wouldnt know how they were performing exactly 2 days ago, on all 3 rigs. And now on all 3 rigs its the same storry. I guess I will have to reinstall (not too lazy to search, not too bored, too busy to search deeper) to fight this cancer off.

So fair warning to all who tried to cgmine this coin: all you are mining after, he steal your hashes.. such hash, much power, so low, wow...

Apparently you don't realize that it is a different mining algorithm and you cannot compare speeds between the two.  Also notice you are getting Mega Hashes on MaxCoin instead of Kilo Hashes on Litecoin.

Why are people so quick to declare a scam?

because i know what keccak is and i know that you use different cgminer and i am not a noob. the cards perform at ~330Mhash each for keccack and about 620Khash for scrypt.
After switching back to my usual cgminer with my usual config where my cards get usual 620Khash per card i have 2 cards on each rig gpu1 and gpu3 underperforming drasticly. Plus I have quite fun connections established. Reboots and restores dont help, will need to reinstall.

Why people assume that whoever says anything is always idiot? I just put a fair warning of what happend to me. (No no extra downloads no nothing, everything was from single direct link on max.1gh.com)
