So you sent BTC from your netagio account to the computer place? Did the computer place give you the BTC address?

[tommymal83]

yes they did

[MrTeal]

Do you see that the BTC you sent went to the address you tried to send it to?

[tommymal83]

yes it did go to the address succesfully

[MrTeal]

yes it did go to the address succesfully

Then you can only submit the information to the computer store and tell them they need to ship, or refund you. There's nothing you can really do to get the BTC back unless the store plays ball.
Are they sketchy?

Yes we have the very first expected DECREASE in difficulty coming up soon. While it is likely to be small, it is a big change from the monster increases we were seeing a few months ago.
If you miss seeing massive increases in difficulty look at the scrypt coins, they are really feeling the pain now that massive amounts of new, more efficient, scrypt ASICs are being brought on line.

It's not the first.  It happened many times in late 2011/2012.

EDIT:  It actually happened 8 consecutive times near the end of 2011.

Bitcoin history test tomorrow. Study up folks.

It appears we may not get a decrease at all this time around, good news is that the increase won't be to large.

It would've, have I not switched off my asics for couple of hours during the night , so I lost half of the reward for the 1day block and all for the next 3block 15min. wonders

That's why I stopped hashing on Slush. I went for about 24 hours with no blocks and had an issue where had to switch off rig for a couple of hours. After 1.5 hours you lose everything. Got some blocks but I got nada. Went for something with more stable payout algo.

Hi everyone,

I've currently got ~3.5Th all running on Slush, by the end of the week it will be ~6.5Th 

What are the pros/cons on splitting between Slush and another pool, or all on Slush?

Obviously there's the payout if either Slush or 'x' pool find a block, against a larger payout if it's all on Slush.  Anything else to consider?

Thanks,

Ian

Been with slushi for ages, however my two previous posts sum up the worst aspects of the slush payout system :/

[Rudler]

At slush I have got the best performance, at least shown in the Frontend.

So I stayed here.
