Old simplecoin thread

[simplecoin]

I got another 300mh online as promised. Too bad my daughter's pc is running with the side off for now ....

And of course I get a miner meltdown.... Wake up to hashkill @ 0Mhash on 2 machines. Only the new miner was up...

[simplecoin]

I'm guessing the long round is scaring people off

I'm guessing the long round is scaring people off   

you and me both

[Kintera]

I have 3 Gig hash setup i have been putting my time at but this long round is killing profits sadly.

[Wolenber]

I know it scared me off. If I see you guys start hitting blocks again I would be willing to move back, but I'm just not seeing it right now.

[Kintera]

i'm gonna allocate some of my rig to them for now but not the hole setup

[Kintera]

Here in a little while i'm gonna put my entire rig at this site for a 48 hour period. which is about 3 GH's

Well, without hashes, it'll just get longer

Your luck should be the same anywhere..... well, anywhere that is legitimate.

With all the claims of pools being dishonest, I'm tempted to put up a page with the bitcoin client transaction log for further transparency. I want this site to be as reputable as possible, with all the reasons for miners to enjoy it.

I'm always open to suggestions on site features and anything to help my sites miners. I'd even change the round calculations if enough users wanted it (Prop/MaxPPS/PPS/LastNShares/etc).

Right now I'm working on performance and a few features from other simplecoin forks.

[Wolenber]

I don't have any complaints with the pool except its size. I love that everything is open source. The graphs are cool, and the fact that it actually shows how many shares I have is wonderful (frowning at you, bitcoin.lc). But as I only have a few hundred Mhash/s, I can't really afford to not hit blocks.

[Kintera]

Minners Going up now all my rigs will be on this pool for 48 hours stright

[Kintera]

Hopoefully people will follow as i am gonna put my Full Array of rigs giving this pool a 3Gh/s boost for atleast the next 48 hours if i do see a boon i will stay leaving more allocated to this site..

Edit i have IRC setup for simple coin on my Android phone so you should find me around there.

Alright, I'll point all my miners back at this pool for the weekend, see if we can get a snowball effect rolling.

As I've mentioned before, I really like this pool and want to see it succeed. So for that reason, I will personally put up a 2BTC bounty for this current block. I'll donate it to SC, and he can dish it out to the lucky winner.

Hopefully a block bounty will bring in some extra hashers!

SC - think you could advertise this on the front page of this thread? Maybe put it in the thread title or maybe start a new thread? That way people can see it easily. I'll PM you the exact amount I'm donating so you know it's from me 

CURRENT BLOCK BOUNTY - 2BTC

-cb

[cbbitcoin]

OK, donation sent.

Also, if I'm the one who solves the block I will roll the bounty to the next block plus add an additional 1BTC

[Kintera]

Awesome CB Lets see if we can't help kick this round in the butt and get this ball a rolling.

Thank you!

I'm working on getting my miners back online... nothing like having 6 cards down. Looks like the latest storm killed an SLI slot also.

Additionally, if I find the block I'll roll the cb's bonus to the next round

(update: well, at least I've got 5 cards up now.... that last 6870 just won't recognize...)

[kiwiasian]

Patiently waiting for block solve......
2.5 million shares...

[simplecoin]

Adding one more btc to the pot for this round...

Thats 3 bonus btc for the finder of the next block

Also http://simplecoin.us/transactionlog.php will give you a raw dump of the bitcoind transactionlist array. It's not pretty (yet) but it gives full transparency to the honesty of the site.

(The receive at the beginning is the transfer from the original vps that the site started on.)

PS. New quad 6870 box is being shipped monday (I know... 6870s aren't the best for mining, but I couldn't pass it up)

Also slapped a 6870 into a different slot, gotta downclock it due to heat though Still should get close to 1.8Ghash. Hopefully I'll break 3 with the new box.

[Kintera]

I'm Runing 6870's for now considering the new hd6870x2 that released gonna order one see and test it out

[simplecoin]

I'm Runing 6870's for now considering the new hd6870x2 that released gonna order one see and test it out

I'm running:
main dev machine ubuntu hashkill:
1x6870@ 940 - 278mh
1x5850@900 - 330mh

headless miner ubuntu hashkill:
2x5830s@ 950 - 610mh

daughter win7 poclbm:
1x6870@ 920 - 230mh (running with sleep to not overheat)
1x5850@ 775 - 310mh

I suspect I'll get a bit more out of them once I make a "fans at 100%" profile for when I'm not around.

[Wolenber]

It's not much, but I decided to throw my rig back at you guys, at least while you have the bounty.
