Btw. Anybody else facing so high rejections rate ?

Accepted shares: 1696
 Rejected shares: 103

Slush: are the shares we are submitting now counting towards our NMC balances? Are they being scored like BTC except divided between the people who have NMC info filled in? I know the stats display is not operational yet, but the backend is keeping track of all of this already?

It's different on all my miners, but definitely much higher than the days before the attack

A: 3052 R: 284
A: 4609 R: 193

And so on

Seems like I always have a reject every time a new block is announced, and then some

Slush replied some where back that stales might be abnormally higher than usual.

If you have shares rejected _after_ block broadcast, then try restarting your miner. Some miners have bug that they don't reconnect to new LP URL given from server once they're already connected somewhere else. So maybe you're accepting jobs from different backend than you're submitting to...

[DutchBrat]

I restarted all my miners,

Will see tonight how they are doing

He had said earlier that once the accounting system is in place, any new nmc mined will be scored the same way as btc, and any that had already been mined will be distributed based on what was contributed while they were mined.  And only people who have put a nmc address in their account will be included.

Not sure if he will go by hashing power or shares or something else to determine who gets what.   But I'm personally not concerned.  I trust slush to divvy it all up fairly...

With the DDOS behind us, is there a new timeline for implementing the NMC accounting so we can get our namecoins?

[slush]

Philj: I'm working on it right now. If I don't asleep with my head on keyboard, it will be later today (UTC).

Stop asking him.  There have been at least 15 people who have.  He has responded politely.  Read the forum for each time he responds to the same question.  He is only one man (or so I think) and he is human.  Sleep is required. I am fine with the fact that it is already counting, it is just not reporting it to our accounts yet.

would the namecoin thing be similar to the bitcoin in the way that i dont have to have the namecoin exe running at all times to get the rewards? i mean i have the thing set up and i've generated an address for myself, which i have saved in my profile.

what i mean is that can i just simply forget about the whole thing for a while, and then someday fire up the exe, catch up with the blockchain and see if i have any coins in my namecoin wallet?

Yep !

Last days were very hard for me and I was doing my best to recover pool to normal operation as fast as possible. During those very long nights I had many thoughs if this is the end of the pool; people will leave it because it isn't working realiably soo long. Now I see hashrate is slowly rising back to normal, which is the best satisfaction for all my work. Thank you a lot for your support!

All the big pools have suffered DOS's at least as big as the one you suffered. We don't like it but we understand what's going on, for the most part anyway.

We should be thanking you. You are the one pulling long nights to work around internet wickedness.

Everything seems to be working good for me now. Thanks for the work you have put in to bring us through the storm. 

Will wait patiently to see what NMC will come my way from this merged mining thing...

the pool has passed the 800 block mark over 40k mined and waiting to be handed out (minus the fee)

This what Ddos attackers want. People leave pool & stop mining. But we are not going to stop, even get attacked daily.
Bitcoin will live forever & also it forms the base of all cryto currencies & change the way money is handled.

I've been in this pool, left bitcoin, and came back and I still like the pool.

You're usually ahead of the trend on most things and have been one of the most reliable and long lasting pools. I would be pretty sad to see you go just because of some DDOSing.
