[4 PH/S+] BCMonster.com Mining Pool / [PPLNS Payout][Pays TxFee]

We tried, it looks like all was resolved on nicehashes end. Lets hope next round fares far better for all of us. I took a bath in this round for sure.

Well we gave it a shot. krisgt30-  Thank you for arranging the rental and dealing with NH.

I bet that after throwing everything but the kitchen sink at our 4th block gets busted by somebody with just a few TH. 

I see that over at Jonny's pool he's also throwing another big rental trying to bust his 4th block.

Hate to point this out but, the previous rounds stats seem bias towards BC Monster? If you sort by contribution he always gets a far greater share, even more than the block finder in some some cases. Am I misunderstanding how PPLNS works?

Working in a pool, being the block finder means you have just triggered the payout for everyone by finding the block, not a special bonus or payout, unless there is a blockfinding bonus, which there was in the first two rounds that I received. I did not submit the majority shares during the first two rounds I found the block, therefore Laviathon got the majority. The third round and this round, I submitted a majority of the shares, hence the majority of btc coming my way.

I saw mention of your block-finder reward so I figured it was for all rounds, thanks for the clarification!

How do you explain rounds 1 and 2?

That's a glitch in coding. 32 bit front end coding limits pplns shares to show that max value. In reality mine were higher and his were even greater than mine.

[Alehandros]

I'm a front end developer, that statement didn't mean anything to me.

Are you implying that the limit for a 32-bit floating point number was reached? because the limit for that is 0 through 4,294,967,295.

edit: perhaps you meant the limit for an (unsigned) binary number; 2,147,483,647 ? -which fits the stats

Ignoring the limit 2,147,483,647, you can see my real pplns shares and the appropriate payout for each round. I can assure you we are all getting paid properly. I would be the first to say something otherwise lol.

Thanks for pointing that out

[Laviathon]

Thanks for pointing that out

Sorry for the confusion on that.  Both us an Johnny's pool were doing the same thing.  It was a problem with the way the database was breaking things to display them only.  The next round it should show correctly thanks to Johnnybravo.  We made the database changes to display the higher number of shares with today's difficulty. 

[krisgt30]

Just a heads up guys, Laviathon just let me know via text that 1BTC blockfinding bonus is back next round, the only condition is that you have to be actively mining this round to qualify for the bonus the next, so any of you that dropped off, come on back, help us bust this block, and look towards that bonus next round!

I guess one of my s5 blade is dead.. So sad that seller just giving one week personal warranty.. Damn

[Alehandros]

my best share so far is a poultry: 910,529,102

edit: are the difficulty settings too low? an Antminer S7 running 9.56K Difficulty?

Just crappy luck, difficulty is fine for an s7. Its vardiff so youll see it change from time to time. If you are seeing under 4k then diff is too low.

[Alehandros]

Interesting! Thanks

First check the connection to the board. Usually the 6 pin cable connection is loose and alls you need to do is unplug then then plug them back in
