[Txyru]

im going to switch over to help you with your first block

[Txyru]

Thanks man, really appreciate it!

I ran the pool on testnet for a while to check for bugs, went pretty smoothly.

What reward system does the pool use?

[Txyru]

It uses this scoring system: your profits = ((user shares/total shares)*reward)-(reward*0.02)

where reward = total block reward + extra block transaction fees.

Which I believe is pretty standard.

[brunoshady]

please, make workers "deleteable"...

please, make workers "deleteable"...

Done.

I'm contributing 1 GH/s to the pool right now, but I'm currently mining for another pool. So I'll stop for 1-2 days...once that pool finds another block I will switch over to this one.

I'll be back on Thursday.

Fair warning, that will cause the pool-hoppers to exploit your pool. I recommend the cheat proof method described in this forum.

If you used php to build your site you can look at my implementation here:

cheers, and good luck with your pool.

Thanks for your support.

As for pool hopping, I still see that users are compensated for the shares they submit, each share has the possibility of solving the block so each one should be valued accordingly.

If enough users find pool hopping to be a problem, I will cater to them and implant a different scoring method.

For now, I would like to see us solve our first block, and take it day-by-day to make the changes our members think are right.

Thanks!
