To get started, setup an account at simplecoin.us.
You should have a miner auto-created on registration: user=username.1, password=x;
To change your pool, goto account details and select a pool for your worker. Then update worker!
login with your favorite miner at pool.simplecoin.us:8337 or pool.simplecoin.us:80 if you're behind a firewall.


Above all else I want to operate this pool honestly and be as helpful as I can to the pool users.
For complete transparency the bitcoin client transaction log is available at https://simplecoin.us/transactionlog.php
If you have any features you wish to see implemented or have any suggestions, I'm always open.

Thanks for your hashes,
Mike aka simplecoin

I'm assuming all is going well so far, thanks to all for processing power during testing!

Cheers!

Okay so i had my 170 mhash/s run on your pool for the last 6-7'ish hours and i got like 1100 shares, any reason that the estimated earnings is still 0? also what system do you use to determin payment amount?


Also what's up with the pin system? I could add a miner just fine although i didn't enter the pin :3

[simplecoin]

I've fixed several of the calculations just now. They were still using xenlands unfinished code.

All calculations/stats/balances are updated every 10 min. Your shares are intact and should be displaying properly now

Also, I've removed the pin requirement for adding miners. The pin is really in place to keep anyone who happens upon your user/pass from changing your pass/payout and cashing you out. It was part of xenland's code, and I thought it was a nice addition.

Thanks for the feedback!

Cheers

[Zagitta]

no problem and yes i'm seeing the calculations now

Another piece of feedback: you might want to move the things in the top right corner a bit to the left because the text is very close to the edge of the screen and looks very annoying
also the password for each miner is shown in plain text which isn't the best idea i would assume

[mouser98]

i gave it a try, but getting communication error....

what is the format for the miner's name on my end?

edit:  nevermind.  seems that miner's name cannot include a space i guess

[RoadStress]

Hi! I don't see my stats updated since last night. I can't also add a Payment address. Also how do i know when you find a block? I don't see any statistics. I will hold all mining with you until you fix my shares count.

[mouser98]

the user shares and round shares are not updating

[simplecoin]

No worries, it seems one of the cron jobs errored out during the night. All of your shares were still counted

The share counts are on a 10min delay to cut down on mysql congestions.

As for blocks being found, we haven't found one yet (only 1 day with very little hashing power and me a few days on and off testing). Once a block is found, your balance will go up. The more ghashes we have, the faster we find blocks.

[simplecoin]

Update: Added error handling to the cron jobs and split them up to ensure the stats update

I think that should keep them from failing now.

[simplecoin]

Also, as for finding blocks, it looks like we need just over 20ghash to solve a block a day based on http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator.php

So, until we can get more hashing power payouts will be less often, but larger amounts (unless we get lucky )

That said, I'm tossing just over 1ghash with my 2 rigs pointed at it. It shouldn't be hard to get over 20, especially while there is a 0% fee (still haven't decided what or if I should charge).

Also, if the fees do change, I will give a few days notice, both here and on the site.

[RoadStress]

fixed (for you, sitewide fix incoming) (Update: fixed for new users)(Update: fixed for all users).

Also, Worker Monitoring is in place. Visible in account details, and soon the json api.

[RoadStress]

thank you now let's find our first block!

[edyzero27]

hello, Im completely new to these but really excited  , i just have a quick question in my acc info it shows the status of my worker as "N" but I can see it working

[simplecoin]

Hmmm, perhaps my calculation is flawed when a new block is started. I'll get right on that.

Update: Got it. It should be more accurate now.

Does anyone know if i can put 2x 5870 on a corsair 650wtx PSU?

from what I have read it should be fine.
