If you're not going to use them, turn the mining off and leave more for those of us that will use them

It appears that neither of you understand how merged mining works.
Each valid Bitcoin share has the potential to also be a valid Namecoin share, and only needs to be compared against the Namecoin chain - there is no extra mining or such going on.

Although, if he deletes his Namecoin address, his reward will be split among the rest of the users, so that could work I suppose

That is what I meant (As I actually use namecoins for the purpose that they were designed for :p)

[freshzive]

damn we've been having some bad luck here the last day or so... a couple 7-8 hour blocks.

fingers crossed for a streak of <10 minute rounds

edit: 1 day pool luck is currently at 39%

Honestly, what can they be used for really? Nobody will ever go to my .bit website if they have to programme their browser. I'd love to use it, I even tried the webhosting stuff but it's pretty much pointless and makes the impression for outsiders my webpage is subcultural or suspiciously hacker related. I believe noone will update their browsers to go to hidden pages (right now).

I wish it was as easy as setting up a .com or any other such domains. If only BIND and other dns servers would jump on board and include support for NMC even as an optional feature available during compile.

[BinoX]

I'm working on a little something that might make it a bit easier, although not as easy as a normal unfortunately...

Probably looking at an "end of february"(ish) release

Namecoin needs a big name integration to make it relevant... Firefox, Tor, something of that nature...

but yeah those 8 hour blocks are

If some of these things like SOPA get pushed through then NMC might become a lot more popular, causing more effort to be put into developing the tech involved with using it easily and effectively.

Can anyone comment as to what sort of payout/GH/s they're getting from this pool? Right now I'm running at around 2GH/s or higher, but only made about 1 BTC today which seems low. On ABC pool in December, I made around 1.25BTC/day from ~1.5GH/s.

Granted, difficulty has increased since then. We have also had some fairly terrible luck recently, so that may explain it as well. Obviously payout is going to have some inherit variation here due to luck as this isn't a PPS pool either.

I guess I'm just looking for someone to estimate the average BTC payout for running 1GH/s for 1 day here. Thanks!

[slider1978]

I run right around 2.2GH and I was getting between 2-2.5 BTC per day back in December. I sort of bounce between here and Deepbit and I can say that I haven't really noticed much difference in payout between the 2 with the exception of the NMC that you get here at Slush which I feel makes up for the slightly higher variance that I "feel" between deepbit and slush.

[digital]

I average around 1.5ghash and have been averaging about 1.25 btc a day since the ddos attacks...

*edit*

Obviously there has been some fluctuation though, I'm just talking averages.  And if you look at the previous couple posts, luck has been way down for the last day or two.

I run at 200mhash and in the past 715 hours (~30days) I have gotten 0.006223766 per hour.
1Gh/s would be 5 times that so 0.03111883 per hour or 0.74685192 per 24 hours.
Yes I keep detailed records...

I don't earn much: donations are welcome to get me started.

I run about 900 MHash (current rate in avatar... fluctuates between 870 and 940) and I get around 0.7BTC/day (average over the last 4 weeks)

You joined the pool in very unlucky day; From the Statistics page, the luck was around 39%, which is very low. However, as you can see, monthly luck is very close to 100% (it usually fluctuates from 99% to 101%, which is expected).

Gratz on 10k blocks!

[freshzive]

Thanks for all the info, going to stick with slush's pool

I few days ago my reject ratio was 0.3% and now its 2-3%, and I'm getting a lot of miner idle warnings in phoenix, is this causes by my own settings/system/upgraded phoenix + kernel or is slush getting ddosed again?

What version of phoenix are you running? I used to have the same problem as you until I upgraded to 1.7.3. Also do you have a manually set "ask rate" (in the phoenix command line argument) ?
