Running some numbers on FTC block 87906, 15 minutes @ 900 MH/s should have been about 12.35 Million shares for the block.  The actual number was 12.385 million, well within the margin of error.  The payout on the block looks fine during that period, which leads me to believe it was just a display problem in how the numbers were shown on the web page.

Running some numbers on FTC block 87906, 15 minutes @ 900 MH/s should have been about 12.35 Million shares for the block.  The actual number was 12.385 million, well within the margin of error.  The payout on the block looks fine during that period, which leads me to believe it was just a display problem in how the numbers were shown on the web page.

Hopefully, it shows me as having done no work over the last three hours, but both my miners showed plenty of shares submitted.  I expect to mine at a slight loss though, the reason I still want to it anyway is because the weather is getting colder so the heat kicked out by the computers isn't a waste, my gas heating hasn't come on once yet as a result so it's saving me money there as well as earning a bit.

Edit:  To be fair though the price of many alt-coins is down at the moment in relation to BTC so that could be the real reason for the low earnings.

Anyway, it's getting late.  I'll check back tomorrow to see how things are going with the pool.

EDIT:  It seems that you might be right about it just being the pool's website telling lies, I just looked again and the hashing rate graph for the last 24 hours has changed completely, showing just occasional spikes.

For me it seems that cgminer hangs on occuring difficulty changes of the pool like this (It just happened when I was checking the PC):

Code:

I use CGWatcher but it seems that most times CGWatcher is not able to restart cgminer in these special cases.

What version of cgminer?

[MickeyT2008]

@Flound:  Is it just the pool hash rate graph itself at fault, and is everything else working fine?  If so then I'll start mining with your pool again in a little while, I don't care about the graph if the shares are still getting paid out.

[Spiffy_1]

Floud, FTC is apparently patching with a hardfork here in the next few days.. I'm sure you're already on this, but if not now you know.

What hashrate are you expecting to see?

I've got it compiled already, just waiting for a good time to take down the FTC pool for a couple minutes to install it.

Well, shit, it looks like the fork happened already.

I thought we had a couple more days at least.  A bunch of blocks were orphaned.. Sorry guys./

Block 88037 was the best share I ever mined:

[endrju1]

I have question.
I mine 24/7 in statistic everything is ok, Est. Coins/Day ~12FTC, Auto Threshold payment set on 10, but my last Withdrawals Sep 27 8:45 AM and there is no more FTC on my acconut.
I work for nothing for 3 days?

Your FTC balance is 8.531436, not zero.

Also, your FTC hashrate is showing as zero from 2013-09-29 23:13:12 to 2013-09-30 06:58:07 GMT.  You must have been mining somewhere else at that time, or mining a different coin.

I know, balance 7,9 is shown from 27 evening to 29 evening and almost did not move.
29 evening i shut down mining because there is no new ftc on my account.
from 27 Sep to 29 Sep 23:00 statistic is normal but last payout is in Sep 27 8:45 AM
The account balance has not changed for at least 48 hours.

flound1129, I believe that CGB is battling another Fork. I see 20 out of 30 blocks showing on stats page are orphans. Also, I am seeing the same problem as before... example block 136,197 orphaned at 3:50 and accepted at 4:04, block 136,202 orphaned at 3:55 and accepted at 4:07, 136,205 orphaned at 3:55 and accepted at 4:08, block 136,206 orphaned at 4:00 and accepted at 4:11... and so on. Need to stop, delete peers.dat and restart. Also, I know that after the last fork issue we dealt with mercsuey updated the source https://github.com/cryptogenicbonds/CGB.git which he updated the checkpoints, so if you haven't updated yours, you may want to do so, in order to avoid the orphans bringing down the pool's CGB mining efficiency rate.

[allbiznessman]

Also, I just noticed while checking the CGB topic, that the official addnodes have been updated, so while down, before restart delete any addnodes and add only these:

addnode=70.98.114.237
addnode=72.78.100.7
addnode=192.81.209.17
addnode=192.241.222.16
addnode=88.198.184.231
addnode=109.169.220.58
addnode=80.255.6.123
addnode=66.58.170.165
addnode=37.187.9.53

What hashrate are you expecting to see?

Only about 650kH/s - 700kH/s so obviously I'm not expecting a lot, I was referring to the way that the graph for both me and the pool consist of spikes with gaps between them but as I said before if it's just the graph itself that's off then that doesn't matter to me.  I haven't been mining continuously either apart from the last 7 hours or so but the graph doesn't reflect the pattern of when I was mining solidly, but the pool itself has been and the pool's hashrate graph is similar.  However, it does seem to be counting what I'm doing which is what matters at the end of the day, and also whatever you did to the server now means that my machines have been getting work continuously without dropping out too so it's all good so far as I'm concerned.  The EU server is working properly too now.

The most important thing I see is that you're actively working to maintain and improve this pool properly, even on Sundays.  This is important to me because I'm intending to build a more powerful mining rig as soon as I can afford to, and the fact that you're busy looking after both the pool and us miners means this is a good pool to choose.
