man that last block was very fckn unfriendly

[stoppots]

Why validity of more recent block are higher then late blocks?
Block 164217 (441) has validity 100/120
and
Block 164243 (443) has 112/120

BTW for block 164217 there are a chain up to 164354 (more then 120 blocks)

seems blocks 164217 (441) and 164223 (442) are stuck with 100/120 and 94/120 confirmations at the time of this post and still counted as unconfirmed BTC

Should be fixed now ... not sure what happened there, the bitcoind wasn't responding properly.  Grr this is why there needs to be proper testing before deployment.

Stick with your instincts inaba. I don't know shet about running a pool, but I bet it's similar to running rigs, don't make any major changes until it is obvious there are solid advantages an things are stable. Same with the pool, 100% up time is what it's all about, stable, stable, stable.

Let the rest of these clowns work out the bugs.

Do what you're comfortable with, you're not making enough off this to make it stressful. This is supposed to be a fun and lucrative hobby for you.

I hope the 3% donation drive is still going on and growing.

I actually had a white list IP thing in place back when the pool first started, meant to somewhat mitigate DDoS attacks, but it didn't really work out for some reason.  I think instead of charging by the IP, maybe increasing by lack of efficiency would be a better solution.  If someone is requesting 10 getworks and only returning 2 of them, that's kind of a problem... whereas if you have 100 miners and request 200 getworks and return 180 of them, that's much more acceptable.

Interesting, clever idea.

Donation rate below 0.5% again? Come on guys

But yes, these 9 hour + blocks are deadly

Killing me.  I chose the wrong time to leave Deepbit.  There is something to be said for low variance.

So join a lower fee PPS pool, or maybe even use GPUMAX, then you have the same zero variance and still a better payout.

I have debated it.  Gonna stick with Eclipse for now.  The maths tell me the luck should equal out over time....

Yeah, it all avg's out eventually, just stickin w/ it is the hardest part when its extremely unlucky. But lets hope we get a nice run of short blocks soon! =)

[kano]

When it is unlucky, DGM (according to Meni) should be pushing your results up - since it cuts them when it is lucky ...

[Inaba]

Yeah, I have it set to pay out a bit more than 50 BTC on long blocks.  The amount varies depending on the block length.

[GenTarkin]

Man, this round is ending up to be insanely long too .. grr LOL
COME ON GO GO GO!

[The00Dustin]

Clearly either someone needs to poke this block with a stick or Inaba needs to go do some gaming...

[freshzive]

Is there a graph of pool luck somewhere?

https://www.eclipsemc.com/block_stats.php column # 6 "Luck" although you need to be logged in to see it.

Cheers!

It's all GenTarkin!  Jeez man, why you gotta be that way, Tarkin? 

I am, in fact, going to go do some gaming.  BF3.  If anyone wants to join me, hit me up.  My BF3 ID is Nitrowolfe.

Freshzive: Yes, under Graphs, there's a graph: "Shares per block" - the green line is average luck.  It covers the last two difficulty levels.
