[CLOSED] MtRed (PPS, LP+, API, 0 FEE) STRATUM on mine.mtred.com:3333

[Tittiez]

pa.mtred is going nuts it seems, up and down.

[redditorrex]

I've just been informed another box shared by us is being ddos'd. Waiting on more info from ISP.

Let us know when the merged server is functional again, decent pool to slam a few gfx card on for some namecoins that Im collecting

Who did you piss off so much?

[Tachikoma]

I'm guessing you guys are on a VPS then?

[Tittiez]

I'm guessing you guys are on a VPS then?

Doesn't exactly mean that, they could be on the same network line. I've seen hosts that offer cheaper 1gbit connections because they are shared with other boxes.

[arklan]

auto payment having problems? or is there a lower threshold i'm not meeting? trying to set it to .05 btc, but i have confirmed over .09. (my mhash sucks...)

aaand payment. ignore me.

It isn't only cheap hosts.  If you colocate a single server, you're vulnerable to a DDoS if any server in your rack is getting attacked.  Even with entire racks, you're going to be sharing an upstream switch at some point with other servers.  It all comes down to how quickly the datacenter can isolate the attack and blackhole the affected server, and how far upstream the attack separates from you.

I see, thanks for that bit of information.

Something is wrong 

pa.mtred.com does not work and

mtred.com has high reject rates. In a period without new blocks I got 2.34% rejects with mtred, 0% with ABC and 0% with deepbit.

seconding this - wouldn't have noticed if i hadn't seen his post. getting rejects here too. (though guiminer isn't giving a percentage... god i need to set up cgminer.)

[Clipse]

seems something is wrong with this NMC block:

NMC   9ccf02ebb4631fd9d4b4486710eb3651ec9ac82d22312d56...   12/6/12 04:39am   2h0m21s   0.00000000   375946   120 req.

Its confirmed aint moving, if its invalid how do you handle the rewards or do they get paid from the next block since those rewards seem to just remain in processing atm.

Looking into this, believe it could be due to packet loss or another culprit...

Yes, We pay orphaned blocks, It will reflect the change and be credited later this evening.

[bitlane]

Is there a SECRET Proportional payout section for the pool that I do not have a login or link for ?

Why does the hash rate for the pool INCREASE dramatically at the beginning of every new block ?

I am going to go out on a limb here and guess that people aren't hopping to get the most out of NMC mining...so what's the deal ? This pool IS PPS, isn't it ?

[Clipse]

Its the same with ozcoin and abcpool, these increases come from GPUMAX users using the pools as offline pools.

Definitely no conspiracy here.

Ozcoin's hashrate increases are not coincident with the start of a round. However, looking at the MtRed hashrate chart I can't where rounds start - bitlane, are you sure the increases in hashrate are at the start of the new block?

This is a PPS Pool. The increase in hashrate is from a single user that pops on every once in awhile with 200+GH/s from what I've seen. Its a single person, most likely using this as a backup pool or a gpumax private pool.

I didn't think the pool was prop, just thought maybe some miners still had their bitHopper on last year's pools. But if the hashrate increases aren't coincident with round starts, then it's likely as you say, a proxy using the pool as backup or gpumax.

This isn't the user I was talking about, but here is a good example.



(Top List)

So yeah, I'm sure.

I seem to be getting a heck of a lot more rejects across longpolls lately. There's a deathly pause where no shares are being accepted, then the longpoll hits and a ton of rejects are returned along with it.

eg:

I've seen up to twice as many rejects as this too.
