Will there still be something responding at http://us.ozco.in:3333 that will tell cgminer to switch to stratum?  Or do we need to change our miners to directly use stratum+tcp:// style URLs?

cgminer will actually connect to stratum with http:// or just a straight IP:port.  It's not part of the spec, but it makes sense that if getwork isn't detected it should try Stratum before giving up.

It's been good to us but everything has it's time
ecoinpool servers cannot be patched without help from the author

ecoinpool servers also make version one blocks
block.version=1 blocks will all be orphaned soon
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=154521.0

For these reasons getwork will be turned off on Saturday
This also means merged mining of Namecoin will cease

Please move to mining software that supports stratum or setup a stratum proxy to use mining software that does not support stratum
Mining urls are listed on Worker page on site

Thank you

I applaud this smart, bold decision.  Is it safe to assume that any remaining NMC balances will be paid out per profile settings or would you like users to do something specific?

98% of users that merge mine autoconvert NMC to BTC, if anyone actually being paid out NMC is stuck under threshold I can sort that out if contacted

Why cant you keep the NMC balance? I have lots in there that i will withdraw next week. I need to to have my NMC client updated.

It would be a good idea to implement the x-stratum header on your getwork pool while it's still up to redirect people to the stratum server. cgminer doesn't care when the header is added - as soon as it detects it it will switch to the stratum pool if it's alive.

I dont understand the question you would like me to keep your nmc?
I encourage miners NOT to keep large balances of anything on any pool - always have.

I know what you said, but what happened was my automatic payout didnt work one day. When i checked my acct the payout address is gone (i believe server had some issue and you fixed it)
My namecoind full node was hosted remotely and i didnt want to keep track of multiple wallets so... Fast forward, i had to shut down the node and saved my backup wallet. I need to import the wallet with a new namecoind client to receive payout. I plan to do it tmr evening. Do i have time?

First time switching to PPS.

What i did was change the payout option to PPS. However to see my workers stats, i have to go to DGM stats page?

How come my bitcoin balance is separated between PPS and DGM? cant it be combined?

[BitMinerN8]

Is there a 24 hour payout stat for PPS somewhere? I looked under the PPS Statistics but did not see it anywhere.

the coins you earnt on dgm are still displayed as dgm earnings
Total Credit: in the sidebar shows the 2 added together and they are combined for payouts
a lot of miners like to see seperate dgm and pps earnings

not at the moment

Are we still gonna keep DGM payout?

Can you have the worker stats in PPS stats also? It feels weird when i have to click on DGM to see my workers hashrate and shares.

DGM is Ozcoin's preferred payout method, If I were to stop a payout method it would be PPS.
We have a new front end for the site in development, rather get that in place than mess around too much with current site.

Wondering if say we are using http://us.ozco.in and port 8332 will it auto switch to stratum or will we have to update every client.  Iv always had lag problems with stratum so not sure whats going to happen when you turn off the getwork servers.

looking into setting up a proxy on port8332 so getwork only miners can still mine V2 blocks
this will mean merged mining of Namecoin will cease

i see im gonna try stratum again see if it will run on my network without causing insane amounts of lag wont be much longer befor my 2.4ghash wont be worth using tho.

cool
know how you feel, every diff change price edges up enough to keep me in the game, don't know how long that can be sustained though

[Nemesis]

How do i set manual payout?

there is no manual payout, but your namecoin address probably needs validating, what is your site username?
