Pay On Target: New High variance payout System Offered by Ozcoin

[betatest512]

Still dead though, and sending shares...somewhere 

Should be fixed now.  We found a break in a db sync.  All shares accounted for now.

Still dead though, and sending shares...somewhere 

They were cached on eu server, the db push had a hiccup when we opened port 80 for stratum mining ;/

I had the same issue at your pool sometime back.

Also, I logged into my account and did not find any of the missing balance.

Can you please look into it?

Hi betatest512
No it was not the same issue, you had a misconfigured proxy that was not submitting shares correctly, which you continued to use against advice.
If it was dbpush that was the issue your shares would have been cached as miners were yesterday my time (the issue you quoted).
Still waiting for logs to show some proof that shares were submitted - our database did not did not match your claims- we went over this in IRC at the time (around November 16th iirc) and we did look into it, but you were not being helpful.
Your issue had nothing to do with this payout method, please stay on topic in this thread.
Thank you

Man, I wasn't on POT when i submitted my block solving share...

19.4M - would have gotten me 1.652 BTC with 16 work diff.

2nd one I have heard that from today
and a couple of others that switched off POT and got 2M+ shares on other methods/pools

what can I say...?
but
Better luck next time

Hourly and by Block PoT statistics pages are up now. 

Block Statistics show the last 10 blocks found. 
24 Hour POT BTC Earning is 24 hours to the minute you refreshed (I.E. 13:02:00 UTC). (some stats do not refresh for 5 minutes)

Hourly Statistics show the last 24 hours in 1 hour increments.
24 Hour POT BTC Earnings is based on the starting hour (I.E. 13:00:00 UTC) to reflect balances of stats shown on the page

Cheers

Great work
I cant thank Blaksmith enough

A little something I worked out. It'll probably crash in a heartbeat if the API changes...

Nice work

gotmilk dropped back in from "real life" and has done some updates to our widget, couple of tweaks left and it will be released too

Damn, I'm totally unlucky right now..

Earned: 0.14840923
Difference of PPS: -0.06156306

[runlinux]

Is anyone making any coinage off this? I'm still down 10.42% from PPS.

I'm down 40% from PPS..

then continue with it until u hit a good share, afterwards if u dont want to continue get out. the longer you got bad luck, the higher the chance u will get good luck
but ahwell, to be correct there is nothing as luck, so hope the pseudo random generators do like you enough

Hi Graet
something wrong with my hashrate statistic. Localy my system show 44Gh all the time, but if i check my pool statistic, i see only 1Gh and less.
I have checked my buckups pools, but no power was routed to buckup pools. Where go my hashrate??
This strange situation for last 14 hours. I am was connected over stratum and used POT. Check my POT hourly statistic and you can see strange numbers.
and 100% for this periode my income was not correct.

Thanks

I'll have to get Blaksmith to look when he is awake, I cannot see anything wrong on this side

Us stratum server is in need of a restart I thought you might have been on there

runlinux's program will be more accurate as it queries Ozcoin for the actual numbers, but my stats patch against cgminer-2.10.4 (new patch below) will give a local estimate that can be used to make sure whatever pool you're on is accurate and honest.  (Ozcoin is the only pool that offers PoT, but cgminer will work on any pool with this patch.  It will show you the expected PPS value of your shares as well as what the PoT value would have been if you were mining PoT at Ozcoin.)

Keep in mind that I don't include pool fees in my estimate and that the estimate is for PPS and PoT, not, e.g., DGM.  That is, your actual results won't match exactly.  (Your expected results will, minus any pool fees.)

You can get my code here:
  https://github.com/hackjealousy/cgminer.git


Edit: removed patch, added git repo.

Better to simply write a script to convert the log output (enough information there) or share log output (--sharelog - more than enough information there)
Or if you are smart enough you can even use -m on linux to have it send the output to a process

I've written a pair of shell scripts to use -m to log remotely

cgminer -m script.sh

Code:

#!/bin/sh
#
cat | nc remoteIP 7777 &
ncpid="$!"
trap "kill $ncpid" SIGINT SIGTERM EXIT
wait

Running on remoteIP:

Code:

#!/bin/sh
#
while true ; do
 echo "`date`: Opening new reader"
 nc -l 7777
 echo "`date`: Reader exited"
done

No doubt someone could spend effort to get that to do it

FYI the php to do the calculation on my web site is something like:

Code:

... get $btcperblock if required ...
... get $difficulty if required ...

$aval = '0.8';
$feeperc = '2';
$sharecap = '5';
$feepps = '3';
$sharediff = '10';
$workdiff = '1';

... get variables if supplied ...

$cap = $sharecap * $difficulty;
$btcperblockpaid = $btcperblock * (100 - $feeperc) / 100;
$a = $aval
$factor = (1-$a) / (1 - ($a * pow($workdiff, (1-$a)) * pow($cap, ($a-1))));
$shares = $workdiff * $factor * pow(min($sharediff, $cap) / $workdiff, $aval);
$sharevalue = $btcperblockpaid / $difficulty;
$potvalue = $shares * $sharevalue;
$ppsperc = ($shares / $workdiff) * 100 / (1 - $feepps / 100);

I agree that adding PoT value directly to cgminer status output isn't appropriate in the general case.  I simply wanted to have that in my curses status window so I could watch it for a while.  (And it was very easy to add to cgminer.)

The PPS value is the expected value for all (fair) pools though and that wouldn't be too bad to always display (or at least to have an option to display it in the status.)  As you say, it would be easy to reconstruct this value from log output.  It's just a bit more convenient to have in the miner.
