Why is it so hard to get a simple answer regarding the shipping situation?

On November 25th we were told

We aim to have all the November boxes shipped before the end of the month.

That obviously didn't come close to happening.  It is now December 4th and all we get is silence.  No explanation.  No update.

Do you not realize how frustrating this is for customers?  FFS

There is that word "Aim" in there.

Yes KnC aren't great at comms, they aren't the worst, but there is room for improvement. I wonder if the "glitch" in the ordering system at the end of last week put a spanner in the works and caused extra delay.

102xx here and still In Progress, but you just gotta stay calm and wait out the storm.

I understand that the first batch of Jupiters had to make over 70 coins to break even in BTC and that was going to be tough...  but how can you look at a Neptune and say that it will produce less than 10 coins.    My two jupiters today still create 1 coin a day (combined).      The risk is very different than it was with purchasing Jupiters when BTC was at $100.  

unless you've got 2 November Jupiters pushing 700GH/s each I find it had to believe you can mine 1 BTC a day.

please explain how you're doing this if it's true.
or is it a mistake and you're calculations are incorrect.

I have less than 200gh pointed to slush right now, and I'm making .25btc/day. I have no doubt he's making 1btc/day.

All the profit calcs that i've tried tell me that at current diff 200gh will produce 0.1422 btc a day

*shrug*, variance and luck. I'm getting confirms of just over .01X btc/hr, as I have been for a couple weeks now. It'll lower in a few days, of course.

Right.  So OP's comment, while technically correct, was completely misleading.  His pool had a lucky string of days.  He will not make that day in/day out.

It certainly seems like some of you say intentionally misleading/inflammatory shit, in the hopes someone will call you out on it.  Then we get to have a multi-page, retarded debate on semantics.

An update I received yesterday from an email to KnC re: November status:

Kurt (kncminer)

Dec 02 13:38 (CET)

Hello,
 
 We are expecting production for the November orders to be completed this week. You will receive a UPS tracking number as soon as your miner is dispatched.
 We are not able to give you the exact day for your order at this stage. If you do not have a tracking number by Friday please contact us back.

Thanks

Med vänlig hälsning |  Best regards

All November units arrived in a reasonable time and function as (or above) advertised.  Just like batch one.

Five stars KnC, really good stuff.

this is sarcasm, right??

No.  I am used to building, programming, tinkering, rebooting crashed miners on a regular basis... these things are boring.  You plug them in, point them, and they mine.  They made a mining-for-idiots machine that just works.

I am now running 2 generations of these things, and there is simply nothing to do to them.  KnC is building a remarkable machine.

The November machines have been online now for a few days.  They are significantly more powerful.  Impressive gains in a short amount of time.

Well for me, I'm just sharing how things have been going.. never intended to imply it will remain that way.

Unless of course, myself or whomever, adds hashing power at every difficulty hop.

  they still assembling and hopefully deliver until end of this week the Nov batch! toxic coffee in the morning?

nooooooo... I don't know if all the Nov units are out, but I think most of them must be.  My nov units were order #92xx, got them Friday (USA).

92xx is nothing, I think the order #s go up to 105xx at least

global hashrate is  increased

maybe this week increased more

With Wednesday over in Sweden, all remaining U.S. orders can now expect delivery no earlier than Dec. 9th.

A large number of "November" units will get about a day at current diff.  

On the bright side, as a result of the delayed shipping the increase will not be quite as large now.  

So we got that going for us, which is nice.

We've got a 106xx order and we still don't have a tracking code.  Does anyone know the latest order number to have shipped today?

This was to be expected with the November batch of Jupiter's.

Well someone with 101xx got their shipping details last night, so hopefully we are at 102xx or 103xx tonight.

103XX.   Have tracking number but it is NOT moving.   just says the label was made, not picked up yet.

When did you get the tracking number? I think that UPS picks up quite late, then there will be no update until it gets to the depot.

In fairness to vesperwillow, my November Jupiter, hashing at 660GHs had been averaging 0.5 BTC a day since it arrived last week. The last 24 hours have been a bit slower as there have been some longer running blocks, but it's still been about 0.38 on Slush's pool.

Perhaps this has already been mentioned, but can Enablecores.bin be applied to November machines, or is it just for 1st batch miners?
