Any reason for GME Gamecoin not being listed? It's in LTC market on Cryptsy.

I liked Coinchoose for awhile too. Unfortunately, now it's just about useless for profitability guidance since BTC difficulty is off, as well as ZET and TGC reward. Beyond that, it's missing too many coins that sometimes are quite profitable, like FFC, BET, and even TEK. Hopefully it was just a lull during the holidays, but I've already rewritten my auto-switch scripts at this point...  |

guys are fools if you use profit sites to decide what to mine at a giving point unless you use to to see what the trends are. By the time you get your info from there, multipools are already mining it driving up the dif, by the time you start gaining coins they have dumped the said coins, driving down the price and in the mean time raising the dif.

Yep, if you were doing it by hand. OTOH, my scripts change as fast as the multipool sites, and I have control over which coins I want to steer through.

Your bottlecaps daemon is on the wrong chain, or your daemon is stuck... (Not indicating the correct diff.)
Difficulty is like 1.9, not 0.5... Thus, your value is way off. At 1.9 diff, that value is not 4000%. Doesn't bother me, those extra miners will cause the value to rise anyways. Though they will be disappointed when they find they are mining at 400% reward, not 4000% like your page indicates.
Just giving you a heads-up. I couldn't figure out why the diff was through the roof at this value. Now I know why.

"Our block explorer is broken: stuck at block 44,974 from from November 2013. That is why our market cap dropped from about $600,000 to about $200,000 on Coinmarketcap. We also dropped from position 41 to position 56. We need to get this fixed ASAP. If people get used to us being listed at position 56, we will stay there, and we will never rise above it again. If this is a tactic to try to get people to buy more UNO, it is a dumb tactic because people will think that UNO is a cellar dweller not worth buying. If anyone has the power to fix this please do before the damage done is permanent. BTW, the exact same thing happened to Noirbits last year (whether intentionally or unintentionally) and their price still hasn't recovered. Their block explorer was stuck for months, and no one said anything. We HAVE TO get our SH*T together and stop looking like a bunch of rank amateurs if we want this coin to rise to where we all know it belongs." https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=313126.460. This is causing havoc with people relying on coinchoose to produce sane information. How long before someone fixes the problem? Is it policy to leave it up there with fake obscene numbers when it's known it's not correct? Or does it take this long for someone to do something about it? Thanks for the wasted time mining UNO due to your bad data and lack of sanity checking. There's no reason you should consider data valid for a block count that is from November. In fact -- if your script detects a block 'OLDER/smaller than the previous block' on that block explorer, it should consider it INVALID. And sustained numbers of invalids should, at a minimum, instead produce an AVERAGE profitability over the past 7/10/30 days until the problem resolves itself. Or delist the coin entirely until the problem is fixed. This should NOT require human intervention on the part of coinchoose! It should have happened automatically through simple sanity checking code! That's certainly to be preferred to keeping it up there as 12x the profitability of BTC -- causing CryptoSwitcher to fail for untold numbers of people. And it's been stuck there for the past 12 hours on CoinChoose. Poor response time by any measure. Umm - it is using this Block Explorer - http://bit.usr.sh:2750/chain/Unobtanium - which has current data and is more current than November. And there was sanity checking until the coins forked all over the place that sanity checking was useless.... The new owner is working on alerts regarding stale data. I used to remove the coins but people complained consistently, so now stale data remains |

If it can't connect to Cryptsy, the pricing data is considered stale and not used. If there is no other source of pricing, the coin does not appear. What would you rather see done? |

Bottlecaps was, I believe at the suggestion of the developers, using the block explorer at http://bottlecaps.kicks-ass.net. That appears down. In fact, many issues were due to my earlier policy of requiring a public block explorer as they all seem to be crashing left and right now... |

Also, Bitcoin difficulty hasn't bin updated to the 1.4+ billion that it is now...
The public block explorer I had been using crashed. Switched to new one. |

I owe you all a bit of apologies for CoinChoose over the past month. As CoinChoose was merely a labor of love that I had less and less time for, in November I felt I needed to transition the site to a new owner so they could put in some of the features you have all requested. I made that sale, but in the meantime a policy I instituted at the beginning (reliance on public block explorers where possible) started harming the site as these block explorers started dropping left and right.
I sat thru a session with the new owner last night and got them up to speed on adding coins and some of the basics. I will continue to work with them as they learn my, often spaghetti, code on the site. Things will get better and better. The wounds are self-inflicted and hopefully the new owner (who monitors this thread) will further enhance the site.
In the meantime, if we added a "lastupdate" to the API - so stale data is apparent - would that help?

I think, better - if it can't connect to Cryptsy it don't change nothing. Cryptsy is slow now and most coins often (now for exapmple) don't shows as LTC section. |

Where'd Argentum go? No idea - it is there right now. Maybe Cryptsy price feed was down. |

API now has "lastupdated_utc". This field is the UTC date of when the data was last updated (useful for finding stales). |
