What is the problem with all those invalid blocks lately? Do we have to do them again? Where are those coins then?

Make sure you back up your wallet regularly! Unlike a bank account, nobody can help you if you lose access to your BTC.

They are invalid because they do not belong to the longest chain of blocks, they are orphaned forks.
We can't "do them again", its just lost work.
It happens, when two blocks are found nearly at the same time, and ours has the bad luck of not being the one on which the ongoing blockchain is based.

also bad luck = the back end servers CPU's being hammered (our previous reason for lotsa invalids) or network issues... we solved the block, but the servers are having issues connecting out to say "WE SOLVED IT", during that time someone else solved they were able to connect out and announce it. usually I would ignore the invalids as they arent as bad as before, but seeing the back end servers losing each other on reporting shares to each other recently, I'de have to guess they are to blame. or not. |

Regarding the Poll: What type of pool payouts do you prefer?
I think it should be reset.
A lot has changed in the last few months. I live in the US and it takes a lot longer to get USD out of Bitcoins.

I keep getting a ton of connection problems -- I had moved to BTCGuild for a while with 90% of my workers to wait it out and see if Slush improved -- but I had almost all of my Slush workers (in two different locations) error out with connection problems last night. Is this a permanent issue now ?

Looks like slush is too busy with his Trebor or whatever it's called. Pool seems to be limping along on it's own, and doing a bad job of it.

75% of my workers halted yesterday with error "unknown encoding idna" a friends did the same thing also... I am going to go out on a limb and suggest some erroneous data was sent to the miner clients from the slush servers |

"I'm not following the established directions for connecting my miner(s) to Slush's pool. As a result of me not following directions, my miner(s) aren't working properly. Therefore, it must be a secret global conspiracy, all in the name of robbing me of my 0.002 bitcoins for the round. INTERNET RAGE!!!!!!"
