I've actually implemented the algorithm but doesn't perform as well as expected with 30 blocks lookback. It however does no adjustments before block 30. I ran it on testnet, and began with CPU mining at mininum difficulty, at about 9h30PM. I found 16 blocks in about 30 minutes, then kicked in some GPU power. So I multiplied the hasrate by a lot (I didn't note my CPU hashrate, so unfortunately I can't give the increase factor, but it was a lot, since I went from less than 100Khps to 4Mhps, let's say at least a 40x increase). I managed to mine up to block 108, at around 0:00AM. So already, we were ~25 blocks of what should be expected (75 blocks) in 2.5 hours. I went to bed, at 8:00AM next morning, I was still at height 108. I was late for work, so I pointed my miners back to my pool, and left, unfortunately, not taking the time to see why it didn't mine anymore. But something definitely was not right. It was apparently my second instance that disconnected, stopping any further mining. I need to run more tests with different lookback values. I will get back here when I've actually ran more tests and found the right balance. The issue is that with the variance involved in mining, it is really difficult to detect whether a low block time is due to luck or hashrate increase. It might be that a 10% variation is a too sensitive value for difficulty adjustments, so I also need to test with allowing a higher variation (15%, 20%, 25% ?) and combine it with different lookback values. However, if I want to be efficient, I need to write test cases for that instead of being a lazy bum and test mining the algo... I'm not quite sure I understand the problem, but let me suggest some stuff for the variation problem. I'm not a statistician, but it seems like 2 standard deviations from the mean is a good trigger. How about you take the last 30 samples, compute the mean and standard deviation. If the new sample is more than 2 standard deviations from the mean, then force a retarget. In a random process (as I remember it), >95% of samples should be within 2 standard deviations of the mean. That means that less than 5% of retargets would be from a random event, and 95% of the would be triggered by changes in hashing power.

Noirbits just added: http://coinmarketcap.com/Definitely a solid coin that's undervalued right now. About to increase at least 10x

Nice! I already sent a message to Gliss of Coinmarketcap so Noirbits can get relisted. I also posted a message on the main Coinmarketcap thread here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=199685.420

I'm so proud to be a new member of the Noirbits community! We're finally starting to get our sh** together. I think that this is a quick summary of everything that has happened recently: Now, I'm going to shut my big mouth. I'm going on radio silence until Noirbits hit 0.0001 BTC on Cryptsy. I'll see you all then!

noirbits rise and rise the day, and it becomes clear bought more than sold and bought more than the mines here are. also she could clearly detached from the deep past. one probably knows someone more than others. if a news is it should probably go up to the old and one probably about it.
which thread is actually currently?

noirbits is clearly in a long pump from someone who bought at 2000 and now he is manipulating the price so all you guys can buy at 300% from him. the signs are clear, been following this for a few days now.
as long as the dev of this coin is as dead as the coin itself this coin will never have a future (with all promises this barwizi does). check how active he is for others instead of doing the proper thing for NRB. dont loose your money guys!!
