[ANN][ROYALCOIN][POOL][RBPPS][DDOS-protected] RoyalCoin mining pool

[erundook]

Hey all, I have made a pool for royalcoins: http://rlcpool-noddos.erundook.net/
Pool fee is 1.5%, payout scheme is RBPPS.
Only stratum is supported by now.

Current hashrate is ~200mh/s
Come join us!

we have survived a DDoS attack, but we had to change our dns records to a new ddos-protected ip address.
if site doesnt work for you, please check if your dns resolves rlcpool.erundook.net to: 209.141.39.173

erundook@erundook:~/chn/poolfe$ host rlcpool.erundook.net
rlcpool.erundook.net is an alias for erundook.net.
erundook.net has address 209.141.39.173

what does it mean  "generated but not accepted mined" ?

[erundook]

what does it mean  "generated but not accepted mined" ?

In terms of network block, that means that block was generated but not accepted by the network. In example, someone solved same job before us.

This is your third post, as much as I want to trust you I'll have to see how others get on first.

You can check my other pool for CHNCoin, that have enough miners at the moment: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=200075.0

welcome aboard!

[rouf553]

Just joined. Will check ...

[rouf553]

Did you find any block yet?

[derpcoin]

Seems good no rejects as of yet.  

[RetardedMonkey]

No blocks found yet... seems a bit odd.

[erundook]

Just joined. Will check ...

welcome!

just a notice for new comers, pool stats are updated once 5-10 minutes, your hashrate is calculated as average per shares you've sent within last 10 minutes. So it will take some time for counter get to your real hashing speed.
Also about RBPPS:
RBPPS - Round-Based Pay Per Share. Like PPS, but payouts are delayed till a block is found and confirmed by the network. If a found block gets orphaned, earnings relative to it are not paid.

[cryptohunter]

worker  says not active even though i see a hash rate? is this because no block is found as yet?
thanks

[erundook]

Did you find any block yet?

nope. we have just started. we get more hashing power, we get more blocks

[erundook]

worker  says not active even though i see a hash rate? is this because no block is found as yet?
thanks

thats because that part of cache didn't get an update yet. just wait for a couple of minutes.

ok thanks, looks like a nice pool, hope it will not get over loaded.

[spoid]

well the network hash rate is around 430 000 kh/s, gives us a less than 10% chance per block at the moment. Just wait a bit more.

[ymer]

well the network hash rate is around 430 000 kh/s, gives us a less than 10% chance per block at the moment. Just wait a bit more.

Pool hashrate: 32885 KH/s

Still no blocks.

I think the admin is stealing the first few blocks. Fuck this pool I'm mining solo now.

[erundook]

oh. that means we're already >10% of the network, lol

oh really? i don't need stealing, my 1.5% is fine for a long term pool. take and runaway is much less profit

btw he had a CNC block solved of 170k shares which took 6 hours at ~60mh/s. luck is luck.

[crymo]

jumping on this ship

[Hydroponica]

How often do the stats update?

[kr4x]

throwing in 1200Khs at it

[derpcoin]

82,857 KH/s and still no blocks  

[RetardedMonkey]

20% of hash rate and no blocks.

Yeah something ain't right

[kr4x]

20% of hash rate and no blocks.

Yeah something ain't right

I agree

[derpcoin]

Scam pool.....

[R_Lem]

Scam. It's gotta be. I'm moving on.

...maybe I was hasty. That delay with no blocks still feels questionable though.

[crymo]

so when shoud i expect some payment ? on bob's pool i had like 60 coins/hour

[Hydroponica]

Perhaps we should give it longer then 10 minutes??

[spoid]

I'm giving it a bit more time.

[ymer]

I'm giving it a bit more time.

LOL yea, give it 30 more mins to get him his starting 10k coins then he can say "wow so unlucky after 2 hrs we got our first block  "

[RetardedMonkey]

The fact that the top level domain has a troll face leads me to believe I shouldn't bother.

[kr4x]

FIRST BLOCK FOUND!!

HERE WE GO

[Rannasha]

First block was just found by the pool:

Code:

Block 	Validity 	Finder 	Time 	Shares 	Share cost 	Your shares 	Your reward
5,142 	90 	RikoOnWeb 	3 minutes ago 	31,343 	0.003191 	34 	0.10685

[bdub]

1st block found!

Pool hashrate: 103824 KH/s ~Nice!

[derpcoin]

Oh all of a sudden a block!

[Hydroponica]

Block found

[RetardedMonkey]

Oh all of a sudden a block!

Yes, the coincidence... lol

[mr_right]

found 1 block, but still questionable. with this kind of hash power should found more often. watch 30 min then decide.

[Hydroponica]

There'sjust a lag in the stats, dumb asses

[crymo]

we should be finding a lot more blocks....guess i'll wait for some more serious pool

[ymer]

Block found

It must be legit, pointing my main miner to this pool again.

http://erundook.net/

[xthestig]

He said there is a 5 - 10 min delay on the front end

[nerdcustoms]

lol just joined, throwing 1200 in, I'll wait it out 30min and move on.

[crymo]

alright then...we're nmow at 100K khas/s
what's the network rate ?

[Rannasha]

alright then...we're nmow at 100K khas/s
what's the network rate ?

Network rate is ~435 MHash/s ('getmininginfo' command in the debug window of the wallet client). So the pool is at just below 25% of the network rate. With a target of 3 mins per block, that means a bit more than 12 minutes between blocks found by the pool. On average of course.

[nerdcustoms]

seems to be going now, old faithful just needed a kick.... at this pool hash rate, we should rape the RC network of blocks.

[RetardedMonkey]

2 more quick blocks.

[kr4x]

2 more blocks found!

 

[mr_right]

except that the difficulty is way lower than actually network rate. block's been found every 1 minute. So every 5 min this pool should find one.

[cryptohunter]

what happens if we go over 51%?

[nerdcustoms]

what happens if we go over 51%?

don't think we'll get that much hashing power. we're only at 25% in 30min LOL.... wait and see I guess.

[Hydroponica]

what happens if we go over 51%?

The world ends

[erundook]

I have raised share difficulty to 128 to avoid server overload. You will be experiencing bogus hashrate stats for a few minutes.

[crymo]

33% now, admin should consider to temporarz stop registrations when we approach 50

[erundook]

okay, first payouts on their way!

[kr4x]

more blocks found

[erundook]

33% now, admin should consider to temporarz stop registrations when we approach 50

or just take down the network... lol

[nerdcustoms]

okay, first payouts on their way!

We're chugging along nicely now. block every minute or 2 lol.  Thanks for making this pool

[erundook]

thanks you all for coming! and cheers to that dude said im stealing. you should see now. i'm not doing that.

[nerdcustoms]

33% now, admin should consider to temporarz stop registrations when we approach 50

+1 lol so at 51% would we just rape anyone else who's trying to mine?

[kr4x]

first payout received

[nerdcustoms]

thanks you all for coming! and cheers to that dude said im stealing. you should see now. i'm not doing that.

No complaints here, you're the first to put up a decent pool.  I'll give it an hour and up my donation % if things keep panning out.

Cheers!

thanks! i guess i will stop new regs on some moment when server load will hit the limits

yeah, already got payment in wallet...but i setted up payment trashold higher that it..is it working as intended ?

 it's beneficial to push it as close to the limit though right?

i'll stop new regs on 75% of server load.

[nerdcustoms]

Sounds reasonable 

[erundook]

Also as a reminder, stats are updating their cache each 5 minutes, don't get confused with 5-min-old numbers.
This is to prevent guys hitting F5 100 times per minute to get the server down.

[Joerii]

Hi erundook.

Nice pool.

Hashing away nicely, but something is a bit strange. After like 20 minutes my hashrate still shows only half at your site. Also, when I click on My Worker it says that my worker is not active.

Just a bug ? And should I worry about only half my hashrate showing ?

[nerdcustoms]

check in another 5-10 minutes.  He said they were making a few changes to the server and to expect strange numbers for now, also 5 minute cache updates.... as for the Active/Non active on the workers page, it should say active (at least mine all do).   

[Hydroponica]

In theory, a hacker could use t to gain complete control  of the entire network.

this pool is a bit weird for me, the more workers i create and use the other workers get slower.

for instance

1 worker = rig 1 = 1.1mh  

thats fine and if i just have 1 worker on your site it says 1.1mh

however if i add more rigs its gets slower so if i put 3 rigs all say about 600khs  ?  this happens with coinotron too so i wonder why some pools do this,notroll and gml are okay with adding more workers.

that could be a hashrate calculation bug. all shares are counted and paid properly.

can i point all rigs to 1 worker? does that work okay?

you dont have to do that. as i said before, all shares your workers have sent to the pool are counted properly. hashrate is calculated on average and should not be treated as anything to do with real payout size, since pool does only count shares for payout, not hashing speed.

[dykast]

Not sure if this is "normal".  I seem to be getting shares a LOT slower then when I am mining anything else.  Is there something in my config that I might need to change? This is for a 7950 that mines at 630

color 02
cgminer.exe --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://rlcpool.erundook.net:3338 -u xxxxx -p xxxx -s 1 --expiry 1 --queue 0 --thread-concurrency 21712 --intensity 17 --gpu-platform 0 -d 0 -w 256 -v 1 -g 1

this is because share difficulty is set to 128. Most of other pools use 64 or 32, which is two or four times more shares per minute. Don't worry, everyone else is generating hashes at the same difficulty and block share proportions are right.

[Tigggger]

Great job on the pool, very low reject rate and love the transaction history page, green in red out and no donation lines cluttering it up.

thanks for your words! trying to keep it good

[erundook]

you can do your thanks with higher donation percent in account settings...lol

[erundook]

the question is when and where will be an exchange accepting those coins

[willhash4food]

I also agree. Nice work man. I'm pretty far away and am getting almost no rejects at all.  

[nerdcustoms]

the question is when and where will be an exchange accepting those coins

I say we build stock up and wait a week, then start sending e-mails to exchanges requesting it to be added.  Too early and there isn't enough profit in it.  Have to build up some hype first. 

[erundook]

btw.. ashame to ask, but where do you guys monitor the network speed? i mean the royalcoin network speed of course

[jdebunt]

just joned the pool , looks good, i really like the design & transactions page

[erundook]

just joned the pool , looks good, i really like the design & transactions page

thanks.. btw this is hand-written software i made myself. it only looks like mmcfe (most of other pools) to make most people already familiar with it.

[erundook]

ALERT: new registrations will be closed after we reach 500mh/s its 400mh now

[crymo]

i§m getting 0 shares on some quick blocks, anyone with simalar issue ? would it be possible to lower share difficulty ?

[erundook]

i§m getting 0 shares on some quick blocks, anyone with simalar issue ? would it be possible to lower share difficulty ?

i am getting the same. thats okay with that block rate. just wondering when someone will find a block with one share and get all the reward

[polymyxa]

ALERT: new registrations will be closed after we reach 500mh/s its 400mh now

So, lets open some additonal accounts and sell them later for some yacoins 

[ryantc]

nice pool, switch to it now.

I am lucky enough to find a block on solo mining within a hour, but no more in another 2 hours.....

[erundook]

everything okay? just watching how the load goes. payouts coming, no rejects, no server lags?

ok i guess no complaints in thread means pool is working great.

[Rannasha]

everything okay? just watching how the load goes. payouts coming, no rejects, no server lags?

Maybe add a little note about the 0.1 RYC tx-fee for payouts. It's a super-common amount for alt-coins, but it's good to put it somewhere on the spots where you can set payouts (manual or auto).

[billionaire]

I setup an account with this pool, but I cant get my RYC wallet to start downloading the block chain. I havent had this issue with other coins wallets please help.

the registrations will be closed on 500 000 kh to save the server power.

It looks good so far, just dont pull a carebear on us

Would it be possible for you to add the overall network hashrate? If its already on your site, can you tell me where it is?

[erundook]

Would it be possible for you to add the overall network hashrate? If its already on your site, can you tell me where it is?

i've asked before on this thread where i can get this information. if i get an answer with some api link, i'll add this right away.

[Moray]

I love this pool. Thank you, keep up the awesome work.

[erundook]

sorry for error on site. was trying to add network hashrate ticker.

[Nolo]

Is there no way to set my own workers' usernames and my own passwords?  It would be very inconvenient to change the usernames and passwords on each of my rigs. 

[erundook]

Is there no way to set my own workers' usernames and my own passwords?  It would be very inconvenient to change the usernames and passwords on each of my rigs. 

im sorry, not yet. this was made to get rid from workers like '{username}.1' with password 'x'.

[erundook]

i have added the network hashrate monitor. and lol, we are beyond 50%

[kentt]

Is there no way for free withdrawal at a certain point?

i didnt found one yet. even big pools like wemineltc suffer from this tx fee problem.

Okay cool.  Thanks for answering.
I'm not complaining but most pools have payout free after a certain point.  It would be nice.
Anyway, I'm glad you set this up.  Super stable so far.

Just out of curiosity what was the problem with username.1 password x? 

[billionaire]

oh wow we are already at 50%....I was going to wait until i received my first payout from my 1.2mh then i was going to put another 2.4mh afterwards...Hopefully some people will join another pool soon.

[erundook]

whoops. looks like load is gone beyond the limits... dealing with it now

[erundook]

or maybe ddos, looking into it, filed a ticket to hoster's tech support

[Lollaskates]

would not be surprised at a DDoS. Any new coin gets this, its ridiculous. But yeah your pool is struggling, all my shares are now stales (5Mh/s)

[erundook]

looks like my hoster has completely removed network connectivity from my host from now. I can only see it got no load now via KVM connection.
I will keep you updated.

[rouf553]

Down here 

[erundook]

awesome. i've got zero connectivity to my server, and got no reply from tech support yet. though i can see the box through KVM, and it got no networking there.
hope to get some answer from support soon.

Got the response from techs:

Hi,

I just got confirmation by the data center that your IP has been nullrouted because of an incoming DDoS attack.
The attack is still going on right now and the IP will be unblocked when the DDoS stops.

I just got confirmation by the data center that your IP has been nullrouted because of an incoming DDoS attack.
The attack is still going on right now and the IP will be unblocked when the DDoS stops.

I think it is not ddos attack. Actually suddenly we all joined and it's looks like ddos.

[Lollaskates]

They ddos new coin pools so everyone else flops around / has to solo mine with poor results, while the botnets connect to a private pool and mine away without problems.

Its coin hoarding.

But 1.6G/s is small change when it comes to DDOS

[rouf553]

Why would somebody wants to DDOS a new pool? I don't get it.

Because they want to mine this coin now.

was doing it just now. waiting for techs to accept my request for a new IP address...

[erundook]

cloudflare & new ip ready. just wait for dns changes to propogate and we can start mining again.

[erundook]

And I'm really sorry for the inconvenience and that I didn't do this before ddos happened. Hope things will go back to normal really soon.

any help ?

[Wilderness]

would you get more coins mining from a pool with greater hashrate? if both pools had massive rate 60 vs 120 for example

[riku2015]

temporaly untill dns works u can  do:
use direct ip to miner
or edit hosts file to 176.56.230.twentyfive  pointing rlcpool.erundook.net domain

No worries, that pool uses PPLNS, which is kinda pointless, when only 2 pools exist. Takes way to long, for a slower miner to get enough shares, to reach full earning potential. Your pool is much better.

Most likely one pool operator DDos other pool , so don't shoot them ...

[erundook]

so guys is everything back to normal?
except the stats page that is kinda slow because it has alot of data to work with. i'm working on a better caching strategy that will make it faster.

nope. we have ~213mh/s at the moment. i guess your dns is looking at the old record (the one before the ddos attack). try flushing your dns please

[Oldsport]

I'd like to be able to make my own miner names and passwords. Rather than have them randomly generated 

[crymo]

still not working for me, please send me IP in PM..thanks

[erundook]

have just replied to all the pms gathered in my inbox. sorry for late replies, was busy recovering from ddos attack and sleeping later on...
thank you guys for your kind 'thank you' letters. i hope you enjoy mining on this pool.
you can give all your love to this pool increasing your donation rate to any affordable number you like.

p.s. i am currently in conversation with my hosting provider about some ddos-protected gre tunnel for our server so we can change the ip once again later. i will announce it here before it happens so you guys could switch without downtime.

[erundook]

okay i've got ddos protection setup in test mode. i am going to test it with my miners to make sure the connection is stable without rejects and so on. if everything goes well we are going to get another ip address later today that is DDoS-resistant.
please note that miners reconfiguration for new ip will be necessary, unless you want to wait for dns changes to propogate again.

i will announce the new ip as soon as everything will get tested for stability and ready for you guys to connect.

[erundook]

I'd like to be able to make my own miner names and passwords. Rather than have them randomly generated 

i will be doing this today.

the dns cache. try mining at this ip: 176.56.230.25
please note that ip will be changing later today to get ddos protection enabled.

[erundook]

i have added pagination to transactions and block stats pages to reduce page load times. more optimizations coming.

[erundook]

ALERT: DDOS PROTECTION IS READY, PLEASE READ BELOW:
As I've said, I was ordering/testing/configuring the ddos protection service, and looks like it's done.
I have tested my miners for about 1.5hrs through the new IP address, and got zero rejects on that.
So I am now updating DNS records to point to this new DDoS-protected IP address:  209.141.39.173
You can use it already to reconfigure your miners.
Also, please note: the current IP address (176.56.230.25) will be completely shut down within next 12hrs.
So please kindly reconfigure your miners to our brand-new protected IP.

Cheers!

Very nice hopefully this attracts more miners its been 18 minutes since the last block come on guys hop in

yes the accept/stale ratio is very nice, just the pool isnt getting much done in regards to solving blocks hope it picks up smooth you have done a good job.

well that explains the drop of of hashrate in the pool. I wonder why it was listed as dead...

well that explains the drop of of hashrate in the pool. I wonder why it was listed as dead...

i guess that was added when we were experiencing the ddos attack. well, we should be ddos-proof now

[erundook]

but i still dont understand why people go away if everything works great. lost interest in royalcoins?

[anderl]

is the website up.  The pool is solid and working but the website is down for me.

[anderl]

but i still dont understand why people go away if everything works great. lost interest in royalcoins?

I don't think so, I think because the website is down so they may not be able to access their stats and look for greener pastures.

[erundook]

the website is up. please this ddos-protected ip to connect: 209.141.39.173
also check if your dns server points to this ip:

erundook@erundook:~/chn/poolfe$ host rlcpool.erundook.net
rlcpool.erundook.net is an alias for erundook.net.
erundook.net has address 209.141.39.173

the website is up. I keep refreshing it every few minutes with no problems at all. Now get your asses in there and help us solve blocks...

also for those who still experiencing troubles with accessing my pool i have made a brand new dns record: rlcpool-noddos.erundook.net
this one should work right away..

Something is going on with hash rates shown on the site.  Says pool hash rate is only 5mh and that my hash rate dropped by 70%, but it shows unchanged on my side of things.

edit: seems to be returning to normal, but still a good 20% lower than what it should be.
