best bet right now, is to solo mine waiting for a ddos attack on the pool... (well on ypool)

state your hashrate before we can decide if you are delusional or not !

Yes I am delusional 300Mhash

So pissed...

Don't worry, I'm pissed too.
I was here before launch, had everything prepared but missed the first ~half an hour due to node issues, then the variance of solomining decided to slap me on the face by giving me nothing but orphans so I joined pools just to see them getting DDos'ed one by one and so on...
Since launch I basically only stopped to eat and sleep and I only made something like 0.2 BTC from the whole deal, while others with less hashpower made way more. Bah, and I'm back to work tomorrow... day offs well spent.

wow :/

I can't say I feel better but this sucks for you !
Variance is a bitch as I said many posts back... I did manage to solo one block on the first 24 hours so I guess I should be somewhat grateful for that

What is more worrying is how pool mining is almost not worth it anymore even with 300 mh/s ! oO

I guess everyone is jumping on the coin due to the high prices we've seen (and will never see again) when the coin launched.

Managed to get a old GTX 285 hashing with this:
cudaminer --algo=keccak -d gtx285 -L128 -i 0 -l F768x8 --no-autotune -o

However it just shows hashes and blocks found, no shares are ever received. Any help would be appreciated.

Are you using the latest version of Cudaminer with the stratum patch?  A download link is posted on page 1 of this thread, earlier versions seem to have problems like that.  Apart from that someone seems to be ddossing all the pools

Yes I am delusional 300Mhash

I have the same...

Yes you are hoping to get EXTERMELY lucky.... I seriously hope you are !

I know math better, but then even pool mining is getting scary as I just said.

we are somewhat polluting the topic dedicated to cudaminer :/

Hi Mickey,

Yes I am using the latest Cudaminer, I have two other cards hashing away with yays on smalltimeminer but just cannot get shares sent to the GTX285...

[dobob]

When there will be another opportunity to have a first-mover advantage, I might jump at it.

thanks Christian for sharing this advantage!

I think there might be such a chance:

as i understood one "feature" of maxcoin is to switch the hashing algorithm if this is done, every miner (except max keiser himself) is kicked out of the game and max is solo mining his maxcoin again.
i think this was also intended for the "fair" start of the coin - release only a cpu miner and anounce it as gpu safe.
i am pretty sure max and his team mined with a gpu miner (or even fpga) from the beginning since this kaccak has no feature to make it gpu or fpga or even asic resistant.

Aren't the GTX200 series Tesla cores?  Try changing F768x8 to T768x8

The F is for Fermi, which are the GTX400 and GTX500 series I think

I have 8Ghs in total and don't even think about solo mine. You guys are very brave.

Thanks very much for your time Mickey I appreciate it. I did try the Telsa earlier however on launch it tells me:
"the T kernel requires 3.5 capability" and wasn't sure what this meant?

Maybe I'm wrong about that.  Try missing out the letter entirely and just putting 768x8, or maybe F was right and you have a different issue.  Unfortunately autotune doesn't work with keccak yet, but whatever letter it suggests when mining scrypt should be the right one.

No problem I appreciate the suggestions. Launching with no letter at all leads to the hashing with no shares again but it did say at the top:
Geforce gtx285 with compute compatibility 1.3

I'll keep messing pretty sure it's my settings.

@mickeyt2008 and whitetoo

new releases in feb have removed legacy kernel. You can use Fermi for any gtx 8xxx, 9xxx, 2xx series cards now. T is only for 780, 780ti and titan

What I was saying was in case of a ddos attack, the nethasrate will go down, increasing your chance (during that time) to get a block...

[antonio8]

Does anyone know if 1GH is down?

And how can I tell in the future so I don't ask again? Failed to connect means down?


EDIT: Never mind it just connected

Thank you for the explanation. Always learning!

I had a strange error pop up and wondered if anyone could translate to English?

EDIT: Never mind it just connected

failed to connect means you can't connect to them...
Actually I haven't been able to connect to 1GH since the ddos attack of yesterday... even though they are running and finding block.
The easy way to find if they are running is to check their webpage and see if they are discovering blocks or not...

[MickeyT2008]

This isn't paying me enough, does anyone know how I can go back to 2009 and take copies of Cudaminer and CGminer with me to mine Bitcoin instead?

Like a lot of people I really wish I'd heard of it back then
