[ANN] BBQcoin Pool Now Released!!!

[CaptChadd]

Due to the higher than normal solo hashrate it is time now for a pool to be open.

Thanks to the work of D34TH there is a now a BBQcoin pool at http://pool.bbqcoin.org

It is still in early days so any problems the please send them to the bbqcoin.org forums and we will get it sorted.

D34TH awarded the 25,000 BQC bounty for the first pool which will be paid for by me and will be confirm as received on here.

Miner details : pool.bbqcoin.org:8337

Stats updated every two minutes.

PPLNS Payout system.

TODO list

1) fix the share diff to 6-10 or sth
2) Find and replace: LTC->BQC

and voila, ready

[nethead]

I'm not getting shares...

Thats because the share diff is the same as BQC diff. You will only find blocks and get full block value (minus his 1% fee) by that way


Capt, I command you to fix the share diff now (lol)

[CaptChadd]

This is all being worked on, the site is still beta right now.

But having a little user load helps to test aswell.

I am mining on the pool... but my stats aren't updating 

[Nolo]

Thanks for this.  This is a great step forward for BBQ. 

I pointed a rig at the pool. But like has already been mentioned, stats aren't updating

[iamrickrock]

I believe there are a couple issues that are being worked out CaptChadd will update when they are fixed so just continue to solo mine for now

[redmist]

Hi, cgminer says that I'm finding loads of blocks for the pool, but then they all get rejected?
Is this supposed to happen?
I must have found about 300 blocks for the pool, but this is what I'm getting:

Found block for pool 0!
Rejected xxxxxxx Diff 1/0 BLOCK! GPU 1 (unknown)

Hi, did you use -scrypt parameter with cgminer ?

[bitpar]

I don't think the pool is working yet. Wait until you see some stats showing on the pool.

[redmist]

Hi, did you use -scrypt parameter with cgminer ?

No I didn't actually. I didn't realise it was scrypt. Thanks for letting me know, retrying now with that parameter.

[CaptChadd]

The backend is being worked on at the moment by myself and D34th. As soon as it is running properly then I will update on here.

Thanks everyone.

Has anyone got a an estimate of how many coins I'd make a day at the current difficulty? 870khash.
Trying to figure out if I should solo mine or mine in a pool.

[rezurect]

Whats the current difficulty?

[redmist]

Whats the current difficulty?

To be honest I'm not really sure how to find out

[jackjack]

It was around 0.12 yesterday

[redmist]

It was around 0.12 yesterday

Ok, so let’s say its 0.13 now. Does anyone know how to calculate whether my 870 khash would be better off solo mining or joining a pool?
If solo mining is a viable option, how do I calculate how long it will take me to find a block?

[jackjack]

Google 'bitcoin hash calculator' or something like that
Fwiw I found nothing during ~10h at 300kh/s
