Howdy Y'all.

I am sorry about the Block explorer. It's my responsibility, and I've been so busy that I missed it going down again. It's bandaged for the moment, and should be good in a couple of hours.

However, I'm having a problem that I can't figure out. It's not disk space, but something is causing mongodb to terminate without warning. I restart it, the BE works fine until it does it again. Anybody know any good scripts to monitor mongodb and relaunch it if it pukes?

In other news, I'm not currently active with the development team, due to circumstances beyond my control. (no, no drama here, I just got too busy and had to cut down on some things). I hope to get back in with 'em soon. Windjc's post inspired me to point out that for the most part, it's the same team it's been since the takeover, and they continue working hard. Long term focus doesn't do a lot for short term investment and confidence. Stay tuned, they're still doing a bunch of things I'm the guy that likes to talk, and I have simply not had time.

I personally don't know what went between Windjc and Nele. I'm ok with both men

Hey Hey Mech, see you around. Don't work too hard .. actually do, cus IBM just threw a wrench into ETH and crypto is going lunar.

Biomech - help me understand what happens when the block explorer goes down?  Can people still mine? Can people still play the GMC racing game? Are there other things people can and can't do?

Also, I am assuming you have paying dev gigs that are taking up most of your time. Is there someone else that can possibly take over the role to manage the block explorer?

The block explorer has no effect on the chain. It's just a tool to see and verify transactions, monitor block height, etc. The pool is a completely separate thing, and yes, you can mine just fine. In fact, when the BE goes down, I use the pool's daemon for a cross reference to make sure it's synching correctly.

I do have paying gigs right now, and they're eating my life As to the BE, sure, I can give someone access to kick it from time to time. But what would be better is to have a script that kicks Mongodb, which seems to be the issue. I think I figured out how to set it as a cron, which I'll be doing here shortly. It'll work or it won't

[Biomech]

Update: I've added a cron that kicks mongodb every hour for the block explorer. If it's running properly, it has no effect. If it's down, it'll bring it back up. HOPEFULLY this solves the issues.

Nice to see the price going up!

More problems with the damn Block explorer.

use this one for now. I verified that it's  the correct chain and works well. It's not the prettiest thing out there, but it works. https://prohashing.com/explorer/GameCredit/

Meanwhile, starting in about twenty minutes, I'm taking the current one offline and rebuilding it. Nothing wrong with the daemon, but something is screwy with the database. I've tried duct tape and paperclips, but it's just not doing the trick. I'm going to nuke it and start over. It should be up and good in a day or two, but for now,  it's not reliable.

Pool is still fine and working as it should, and if you need a doublecheck on block height, it's right there in the dashboard.

Coinmarketcap has gone mental. It's showing 80mil coins where there are 52mil.

I guess something to do with explorer going awry?

It's possible. The explorer has been fixed, but is still synching. I'm hoping it will be done in a few hours.

Coinmarketcap gets the amount from http://gmc.cryptocloudhosting.org:3001/ you can see that when you click the total amount of coins. Currently on that site the coin amount is still at zero, so I suppose it will automatically update if it is not 0 anymore (assuming they don't accept that result).

Coin count is also rapidly growing to over 87 million as you can see from this API call http://gmc.cryptocloudhosting.org:3001/ext/getmoneysupply

Soon we will surpass bitcoin in market cap!

LOL yeah .. just need another few days and it will show 30 billion coins  

Was 80 yesterday, 87 today .. place your bets for tomorrow.

Glad y'all are seeing the humour in this. I'm trying to It takes a bloody long time for the explorer to index everything in the database, and if you try to pull data right now, you'll get random gibberish. As soon as it's fully synched, it should be right on Coinmarketcap. I'm not a patient man, this is making me a little crazy But it's getting there.

Managing explorers is a tough job. Bitnodes is getting rid of hosting explorers, because it gave them such a headache. Of the two backup block explorers in the main thread only one is working. Perhaps it is good to add http://www.multifaucet.tk/index.php?blockexplorer=GMC

Multifaucet.tk always seems to be working and also gives some extra info. Adds are a bit irritating, but at least the info is there.
