Lucazane, the Phoenixcoin logo in your pool shows stretched. favicon.ico is of the old logo. The site and block explorer links are broken.

Sorry for all the trouble, please upgrade ASAP.

Due to an 51% attack, WDC has to be updated.
But the update require to redownload the block chain.
So the pool is down until we finish downloading it

You can mine DGC or CGB instead :

I have put the HBN confirms to 500 beacause of the actual problem with HBN

Hello WDC miners,

I am sorry to inform you that WDC has been "51% attacked" and we have credited  30000 WDC  that we do not actually have.

the chain has been rolled back, so these 30K WDC does not exist .

So I had to remove the reward credited after block  749500 block !

You will see these under http://wdc.theblocksfactory.com/accounttransactions with  TX Type 51% Attack 1/11/2013 .

Sorry.

Read the message upside

 Yes im aware 51% attack update to 6.4.6 QT but how do i possible owe the pool over 200 coins? That makes no sense at all?

because the worldcoin blockchain has been rollback by the dev  (~ 2000 blocks disapeared and so the reward associated with each block).

So all coins generated after the checkpoint does not exist anymore.

But miner has been paid for these blocks. So we has debt of 30K WDC

I just removed the reward for the blocks that have disapeared.

 Still a bit confused do we owe the pool or don't we?

For those who have a withdrawal stuck because of the fork you can contact me in private

[mybadomen]

sorry but i refuse to pay a pool for me running my machines on it, 5 machines are not cheap to run, then to find out not only have i wasted my time but the pool is trying to charge me over 200 WDC as well. Thats not cool. We all had our losses from this and i am surely not paying the pool for their losses. I expect a pool to keep me safe when mining there not charge me when the pool takes a loss. take it from all the donations or fees but dont charge the miners so we end up losing on multiple levels.

[lucazane]

So you want the pool paid for block removed from the main chain ...

We will not make that

If you don't like our policy, you can mine elsewhere

The pool is not at fault as it hasn't received any payment for those blocks. It's the Worldcoin devs and RealSolid who forked the block chain for their own good and orphaned all those blocks mined. I don't think they realise the rules of this game, so feel free to drop them a note. They screwed up many miners and still screwing those mining on non-updated pools.

WDC 51% attacked, but is now fixed thanks to Real Solid.

I have put a new on the pool :

Worldcoin has been attacked and require an update to 6.4.6 resulting in a rollback of something like 2K blocks.
These blocks where already paid and so resulting in a hole of almost 30K in the pool. I have rolledback all the reward given for the blocks removed from the chain.
Some miners who requested a withdraw during the attack may not have received they coin but there balance has been reduced. Please contact me via bitcointalk, I will recredit your pool account of the amount due.
Please provide your user id and a copy past of the transaction that you can find here : http://wdc.theblocksfactory.com/accounttransactions

I will be disconnected for about 12 hours

I have a -229 balance too. The thing is that we all lost money here...and we were paid for coins that no longer exist! Sorry about your losses..but that is a risk we all take. Even if you were mining solo your coins would be no good! This pool sticks to the estimates quite accurately..so I can vouch for them as a very honest people.
