[0Th]Ozcoin Pooled Mining |DGM 1%|Stratum+VarDiff port 80|NEW CN mining|

[LazyOtto]

got PM, now we are all standing in a circle scratching our heads

Sorry, not worth y'all's continuing to look into this. BTC shares now being accepted.

I did two things. (Don't know which solved it.)

1) Set up a stratum mining-proxy.

2) Then looked at my "Pool Options" page and noticed that several settings had been lost. (Such as both payment addresses and I also was set to PPS instead of DGM.) Set / reset these all to what they should be.

Thanks LazyOtto
was set to PPS instead of DGM  < makes it even weirder though.

"was set to PPS instead of DGM  < makes it even weirder though."

Perhaps not. (Blame it on user error.)

Since I 'knew' I only did DGM at Oz, I probably only looked for the shares showing up on the "DGM Statistics" page. IOWs, btc accepted shares were probably showing up on the PPS Statistics page. And I do currently show an unpaid PPS balance under "User PPS Statistics" on the right hand side.

Although, I have no explanation for how the nmc shares were being accepted and showing up in 'real time' on the DGM statistics page.

Looks like I discovered a way to do DGM nmc concurrently with PPS btc mining.
Just in case y'all need more head scratching.  

Regardless, all merely a curiosity at this point.

-- edit --

Went back and looked. Appears that I did do PPS for a couple of days back in October immediately before I 'went away' for a while. So, again, user error about what I 'knew'.

ahh, ok
Though Merged Mining is meant to be disabled fro PPS

It doesn't seem to be a widespread bug if no-one else reports it we will probably put it on low priority

The new payout scheme is taking more time/code/brainpower than expected

[dark_silverstar]

still unable to payout    my reward already above threshold

Please Pm me your payout address and we will fix it

[GernMiester]

PPS- yawn.
DGM- not for me unless you pool is like 4000-5000Gh/s
PPLNS - hurts my head with mathamagician stuff.
Satoshi Dice - meh! 
POT - Mining BTC is a gamble and its fun again.
 
Gambled and got a lucky share that boosted the payout substantially.

THANK YOU FOR BRINGING BACK THE FUN! Everytime I mine somewhere else your teams Ozawesomeness gets me to come back and play.

I really don't see why this is not a 5Gh/s or more pool all day long...Nice site, great people, fast support and nice features.

A WINNER!!! yay, heard from a few that have lost

We will be updating the formula again shortly - hopefully this will be the last time

Thanks for the kind words
Cheers

[Graet]

new formula rolled out for POT

In other news Variable Diff on will be default setting for new workers, miners may set a static diff if they choose
cheers

the second day in a row does not work or works eu.ozco.in temporarily.
It always will be now?

eu.ozco.in bitcoind crashed yesterday, I am not aware of any issues today but will check.

you are correct bitcoind has crashed again

[Graet]

eu.ozco.in should be up now

I'd like to again encourage miners to move to stratum servers, unfortunately ecoinpool isn't being updated and also runs on an older version of bitcoind, unless we can get some updates those servers will be have to be decommissioned when block version2 takes over.
Miners on stratum are finding very low stale rates and some have found it increases their hashrate slightly as the miner always has work cued
cheers

[anti76]

I via a proxy for some reason, the overall rate falls. this part is working at this address

All miners crashed for me about 20 minutes ago.  Moved to CGMINER 2.10.2, hopefully no more!

API updated to include POT stats

Hello,

I just encountered a behaviour wich should be checked if its a bug please.

I am using the stratum proxy in combination with the modular python bitcoin miner software
and changed back from the POT method to DGM just now.

I also tried to change the vardiff setting  from -1 to default.

So:  when i enter 0 and save changes its fine.

       when i leave the slot blank and hit save changes i get a reproduceable server internal error 500

Please someone check wether this is a problem specific to my sytem or not.


I wish happy christmas and holidays to everybody. Have a good time

Hi O_Shovah
I get the error too, but we expect a value to be entered as per the text just below - I guess we will have to put an error page for people that don't enter anything
Enter your Variable Difficulty for this worker here -1 = Dynamic, 1-10000 = User defined difficulty. Will change your difficulty without need of miner restart now. (Stratum only)

We removed the 0 option as it was confusing some people (0 = default =  1 which miners can do easily anyway)

Hope you have a great christmas
best wishes

I'm curious what this value is.  It seems to always be the same and I can't find the equivalent on the web stats page:

Code:

"pot_averageShare":0.7

?

from comparing the API to the page it looks like the

Now it's 0.5.  Every "average share per target entry" on my stats is > 10.0.
