[ANN] MinerFarm - Virtual Mining Game for Real Bitcoin

[Icon]

correct, but that 2fa (30 sec) can be intercepted and used..  even your btc address isn't locked down.. might as well shout your info out your window.. Lets hope no one invest real btc on here, lol don't even need to do that just steal the site cookie.. Really a free cert would go a long way,  even podcast these days are using TLS/SSL connections.

PS

That strong password is useless seeing it can be read over a ethereal packet sniffer program..

Ah, I see. I personally like HTTPS more, just thought that it wasn't that big of a difference in this case. I do think you should be able to lock down BTC addresses, though, which would get rid of most hacking attempts (though people may hack the game to sell your hardware to themselves at a cheap price).

Was about to ask whether it is possible to create two accounts until I came to see that it isn't. :v Anyway, haven't logged on in my account for 3 days or so, but still my miner is working pretty neat. I have a question, my miner is 92% healthy and is running at 9GH/s, should I repair it? What's your strategy guys? At what point would you repair your miner?

If you find a cheap technician, hire it when you have under %90. If not you can wait until it come down to %85.
Everybody have different strategy in this game. I prefer to play like that.

At the current rate, I won't make enough to repair at even 85% without depleting everything and using the faucet to help increase it a bit (which means it's effectively spending more than it makes).

I'm thinking of depositing something to afford a new 20 GH/s miner, though I'm still not fairly sure on that. I have the funds on repairing my miner but I think I would be doing so when it reaches 80% (and I think that when that level comes, it would only perform 8GH/s)

What % are you at now? Below 85 or above? I'm wondering if it's based on rounding (i.e., 95.00 = 100%, 85.00->94.99 = 90%, etc.).

91.14% right now. I'm thinking if the performance of the miner depends on the percentage, say when it decreased by 10% or something, it will decrease its performance by 1GH/s, but in this case, I'm at 92% and the miner decreased its performance by 1GH/s

This means the block rewards will decrease too. I think you should lower the pool operating fee. 0.05 BTC doesn't cut it off at all at these rates.

I will see and try this

Wow thats alot of bot accounts. I mean 45 ths thats 4500 free 10ghs accounts. I mean what would be the point of creating so many accounts. You would still only receive pennies per day from all those accounts.

And if there was 5384 accounts that where banned wouldn't that be a total of 53840 ghs or 53 ths and not 45. The numbers don't add up.

Imagine that most of the users where in the Zeus pool as well. Shouldn't there be a plan to recoup all those mined cheated block from the banned accounts I mean we missed out on a ton of blocks on nasty's pool because of all the invalid accounts. Along with all the other pools that missed out on those mined blocks.

Are the balances in those account zeroed out and that income pushed back into the system to raise the current blocks?

I mean I feel kinda cheated knowing my my earnings could have been a lot more since most of the banned account came from a pool with more hash and now that those accounts are gone they are still pretty close to nasty's pool. I only gripe because I invested in the game of course.

Hey, there are quite a few people in this world who scam for pennies, so it's not surprising that there are people who create bot accounts that get a couple of pennies per account.
