Do you have to put in "http://"?

[THCGroup]

This teams feature is interesting.

[Turbo4000]

Join my team (see sig)

I joined earlier... although the whole 'teams' thing seems rather pointless, imo. The only thing mildly interesting about it is the fact that it essentially allows you to compete with other people in your team for positions on the board.

I'm still having problems with...

You're doing it wrong. It should really be

Code:

poclbm.exe -d# http://user:pass@deepbit.net:8332

along with any other options you like, which should be placed before the http.
Although, if you want to make it even easier on yourself, use the GUIminer. That miner works faster than regular command line miners for me and is much, much easier to get working. You just press 'start' and it goes, basically.

[THCGroup]

I use the GUI miner as well

Works nicely

This teams feature is interesting.

It certainly is.  I feel honored to be number 39.

How can I join in your team? I can't find the way in the page.

All miners from the UK... Join TEAM_UK here...https://deepbit.net/teams/

One worker account can be used to run up to 20 miners with Long Polling support.
But I recommend using separate worker accounts for better monitoring.

Hello Tycho,

we discussed email alerts when miners fail on IRC a few weeks ago. Any update on that?

I would really appreciate such a feature.

If you fear it would cause massive amounts of emails sent from your system when people leave and join you could make it default off.

Thanks in advance.

is this generally more profitable than the arsbitcoin pool?

I have configured my system + command line miner (Diablo) to autostart after a power outage which is just a simple case of adding the .bat to the startup folder. I have also added iboot which cycles the power to the machine after detecting a system crash.

I may be wrong here but does GUIminer autostart after an outage without having to manually hit the 'start' button?

Hi.

I'm mining with a 6870. At first I had a Diamond 6870, which was giving me 270Mhash/s reported from GUIMiner and 240-310 from deepbit's last 10 minute speed. Now I switched to a XFX 6870, GUIMiner is now reporting 240Mhash/s, but Deepbit is only reporting 100-150Mhash/s. Which number should I trust, GUIMiner or deepbit?

[TangentX]

If you goto view -> show summary in guiminer it gives you the option to autostart your miner. 

[Mezzan]

My mining averages 1700MHash/s which should get atleast 0.8-0.9 BTC / day but I only got 0.67BTC in the last 24 hours. What's happening?

DB is going through 'bad luck' right now if you look at the 'Stats' page.

I also noticed this and switched to PPS. Since i upped my hashes from 500mh/s to 1000mh/s.. About 2-3 days ago I noticed my theretical shares should be approx. .25/12 hours or .45-.54 btc per day. Give or take .10 btc. Well anyways I thought i was a blimp, since our pool hash power drops from 5400 at night to around 5000-5200 at day at times. So i assume *we do more work, to pick up the slack. the following day I noticed it wasn't catching up to speed. Anyways I moved 3 of my miners to PPS.

Not accusing anybody or causing alarm but here's a screenshot of mine and what I got.



my math: shares/total shares * 50 btc? * .96 = reward

I'm noob so I don't include calc. for luck or w/e that lesser hash power crap or lesser day stuff. Also I'm not sure if it's 50 btc or 50.01? or 49.5? w/e it's really divided by? Not sure which number they acctually use once block is solved.

First one: (118/1742715) x 50 BTC = .0033855 x .96 (3% porp. share fee) = .00325
Last one: (1128/7187466) x 50 btc x .96 = .007533


so anyways .00014 is  1/2 of wut .00325 is...
.007533 vs. .000452 *not even gonna do the % here.

I remember that night instead of .54 btc I would get I got .36? I get .36 btc in around 18 hours on the good days. Anyways my 2 cents. Hope there will be more luck. Considering we are solving them like less than 1 hour basis is that hurting the small miners like me? I remember I used to get a .002 bonus awhile back if we solved it fast. Nowadays it's reversed?

[hmongotaku]

any updates?

Should be 118/1742715 * 48.5 = ~0.00328396
You may see such results if some of your workers are in PPS mode or recently switched from PPS to Proportional. Did you ?
PPS reward is not shown in this table.

[hmongotaku]

yea i didn't check 1 of my 3 miner was on PPS mode. PC restarted 2 days ago and it never popped out. I was furious. but that makes sense now.
