I just joined with 404 mhash, it's all of mine. Hope it helps!

it will, if you leave it more than 10mins

Might stay on this pool until I stop mining (long time)

I prefer not to use CGminer b/c it seems my gpus more accepts per hour with Guiminer. I also do not like its mulit pool/load options.

I recommend BFGMiner: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=78192.0

Hio

If you can help with these connection issues, I'm in with some of my 1ghash.. for now lol..

I recieved an 'authentication failed' error, when I tried the stratum server. It showed some accepted shares but none registered with my acct.

The LP GBT server works but gives many 'worker is idle' msgs.

I'm using Guiminer 2012-12-03.

I have that same exact problem with my 7870.

However when I use cgminer (by itself, not through GUIMiner) it works just fine without issue on the stratum server. But yes, I also get the "worker is idle" message and it sucks because basically resets your card between every single share submission.

Here you can find more info about this bugs: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3878.msg1375981#msg1375981

Thx pkarc. Checking that thread now.

I'll be using CGminer until things get figured out. Too bad CG doesn't have a gpu tweak free version. lol

[Amph]

so if for example i buy the 1000gh one, you give me that power immediately?

Looks not so good. A good concept...but there is no way to get your hardware.

The hashpacks are a good scheme to create a hashing cluster. The only problem is that he doesn't give you an option to get your hardware. Worse comes to worst, the pool goes broke and he will keep all the hardware. I was tempted but then realized his rates are set for BFL hardware. Right there, that is a major unknown.

The policy needs to change:

--You can redeem your hardware *at any time*, you the customer will pay for shipping to get it to your home.
--You need some kind of verification that if the hardware dies and the RMA process fails, you are sent your hardware. Each BFL box should be engraved with a number if he is going to sell his packs. Otherwise there is clearly alot of room for someone to walk away with all that hardware any time things go south.
--If you are going to buy a hashpack then he should set a fee rate that remains constant and is deducted instantly from each reward. This is to cover operating costs at his co-location and prevent doubled fees for the same.
--There needs to be some rocksolid way to verify that the fees and profits being being paid are accurate to the eighth decimal place.

Better yet,

Allow customers to buy hashpacks at lower rates but charge us more fees per month.

Right now a 50Gh/s hashpack is about 20btc.

I'd be willing to pay 8% or 10% in fees a month if the hashpack is re-rated at 10 or 14BTC. It might be an idea worth considering.

Great site, I've logged time. (user Baazee)
However, in 1Ghs it takes about 1 year 3 months to calculate a block.
Would not it make sense until the pool has reached approximately 25Ghs to mines with a larger pool? (Your forwards the Hashpower to a different pool instead of 1Ghs to operate solo mining)
How long does it take approximately up my ordered Hashpack available? order-id: 0-1-11

[jdebunt]

been mining here for a few days, still waiting for that first block to get mined, i'll keep going during the day though

[dwolfman]

I saw this from another thread (think in the main Mining forum) and tried it out.  Kept having issues with the stratum server not keeping me connected (multiple machines, different locations, different OSs, and different miners), so I went back to 50btc.com.

So I just joined and was interested in the hashpacks and am wondering how quick I will be given them if I were to purchase one? I am ready to buy some however until I get some info I am just gonna mine with my computer.
Edit: One other thing to consider, you might have nobody mining in your pool as you have one of the highest pplns fees I have seen. Might wanna try more like %3 or %3.5 or preferably %2.5.

[theprofileth]

I have a suggestion, you might want to make the jackpot optional IE charge like a base 2.5-3% and then have the option to enable being enrolled in the jackpot for another 1% that way if people want to just use your great stats and hashpack services without paying extra for the potential jackpot they can and that should encourage faster miners to join who don't necessarily gain from paying extra just for a chance at 2btc where they could earn that themselves faster if the fee was lower.
Just a thought.

Seriously considering this. do not be surprised if you're the first to know if it is implemented.

I would not be surprised if you did, it would make you quite alot more than the pool itself would. If you manage your finances correctly, there wouldn't be any issues.

Make sure to contact BFL (Or Avalon) and see if they are willing to offer you any discounts for consistently large purchase orders. I believe Avalon will, I do not know if BFL will.

----------------------

You need to work on the issue of redeemable hardware. If you can assure this, (the customer pays for any shipping costs) then you are set. People will eventually copy your pool when they realize your system may work.

The reason behind the idea of "redeemable" hardware is that you can assure customers it is there whenever they "need it". As you grow in reputation and confidence your customers will eventually (likely) decide it is far better to keep their hardware hosted with you than in their own homes. Eventually, they will not be able to host it in their own homes. I know I can't host more than 3..maybe 4 at most.

If someone wants to pull their hardware from the Hashrack® they could contact you in email, pay off the discounted difference or any fees pending on the hardware for the month...and then pay for the shipping charges to get it delivered. It is important that you get some kind of (non-permanent) labeling system. Like magnetic labels, #001 or whatever, so you know which one is the customers.

After people have confidence you are here to stay for the long haul; they will probably just keep it perpetually at the colocation facility you are doing business with...through you. You should also limit how many "redeemable shipments" you are willing (or can do) per week without straining you or your staff. If it is 50 slots per week, it is 50, no more no less.

Anyway, you have a very good idea going for you. I hope it takes off and it keeps you profitable. I frankly do not see how it couldn't.

Possible SCAM 

After giving hashrack my 1.02 BTC and buying my "hashpack" my user has been blocked.. when i try to request a password reset it tells me it already sent me a password reset.. When I try to log in with my previous password it just says "User has been blocked"

Thief gimme back my 1 BTC.. usernam z3r0

SCAM WARNING

[z3r0]

BUMP

wow seems OP is afk 

[Hippie Tech]

This should be enough to give pkarc the scammer tag.

I wouldn't be surprised if the pool found some blocks and we were not informed..

[GenTarkin]

why would I mine on this pool? I dont get it ... lol

[chinchs]

Have posted any picture about your datacenter yet? Have received any of the BFL boxes?
