jumped to 150 % now


wtf !

Ok can he come and explain now?!? Where the fuck are their answers now?? 150% luck jump and yet no blocks found!

[organofcorti]

<snip>All slush has to do is come out with the brand and firmware of the miners he said caused this issue for so many months now.. <snip>

One month, not "so many". Your hyperbole makes it harder for people to take you seriously. Just post what you can prove is true, it'll be enough.

MONTHS!! read thru the damn posts and go back .. i didnt peg you as being lazy

must be that poor impulse control ehhh

There's no significant bad luck in the months before December. I can show you how to calculate it for yourself if necessary. Again, best stick with things you can prove, not just what seems true to you.

Ok if you know so much about the luck, can you please elaborate the 139% luck day that is now on slush with 54PH?

As I said to d57heinz, I can show you how to calculate the probability of "luck" for yourself. Read this and learn:

My miner shows 1.072Ths. But on my Slush pool's dashboard only shows 700Ghs. Is this normal?

what difficulty does your miner report you are mining at?  you can adjust the difficulty manually on your slush dashboard if difficulty is too high or to low.

9000.

Other miners also set at 9000 and they are running constantly @ 1th.

I think it is "variance".  I'm not sure if that is accurate, but if you look on the dashboard graph charts you see peaks and valleys charting your hashrate with scoring rate being in the middle.  If your miner shows ~1 Th when the pool page reports as 700 gh, I'm sure sometimes you check the dashboard and it will show 1.3 Th or higher.  I'd compare your 5 min/ hourly and 24 hr numbers and see if they are more closely relating to your miners output.   If your getting a lot of HW errors you might need to lower difficulty.  I did experiment myself, setting an S5 to 8192  my scoring hash bounces around up near 2 Th and as low as 500 Gh but my hourly scoring rate is right at 1.15 matching my gui reading.  That was just me experimenting for an hour to justify my response.

I thought an antminer s5 could only run up to 450gh/s?

[jonnybravo0311]

That's the S3.  441GH/s.  The S3+ was 453GH/s.  If you were lucky you could overclock them to 504GH/s.

[simonpeter35]

Great, thanks.

My machine is running constantly at 1th. On Slush's pool interface shows hash rate scoring at around 800ghz. Only 2 possible answers. 1) The pool is taking the other 200ghz to mine witholds blocks. 2). May be my internet router is too old to keep up.

[rupy]

Hm, is slush voting for Classic?

I think you should add a per account vote before you start broadcasting votes no?

It most certainly isn't number 2.  The bandwidth requirements for a miner connected to a pool are pretty tiny.  Even if you were sending an entire block (which you aren't) and every block was max size (which they aren't) you'd still only be sending 1MB across the wire every time you submitted a share to the pool (which is usually about 12 to 18 times a minute).

You might want to check out your miner to see if there are a high number of rejects or hardware errors.  Those could certainly be a factor in what the pool reports vs what your miner reports.

Hardware got no problems. I've already checked that. You have mentioned high rejects rate, what makes it high and is there anything we can do about it?

64% for the day are you sure you sorted things ? time to move pools i think

159% now, Still wanna to move? Some people will never get it, how the mining and luck works....

[welshy82]

already moved to kano untill its steady and sorted might even stick to kanos come to think of it

[organofcorti]

I thought you'd moved from Slush's pool to solo.ckpool ages ago? What made you decide to come back?

[welshy82]

Was doing solo only for a few days and went back to slice but somethings still fishy going on over there and not much input from admins or explanations I want to be part of a pool where the owner actually posts on the forums hence why Im now mining with kano

I have an unconfirmed payment as well.  It's been over 15 hours.

[VeritasSapere]

The mempool has more then 30k unconfirmed transactions now. The situation is getting dire. Slush, please start mining classic blocks now or I will leave this pool for one that does.

[ohmygod21]

stuck for 24 hours now ...

upgrade the sending fees please .

[smracer]

After 72 hours will all the payments just go back to Slush?
