Just wanted to take a second to welcome all of the new miners to the pool! Looks more like 2 more more very, very large miners.

No queue and last block went to : 1GBT3CRvTCadJGUEKrsbv1AdvLqcjscaUb 0.00000001 BTC 18d3HV2bm94UyY4a9DrPfoZ17sXuiDQq2B 25.14056999 BTC
18d3... is not in the list of contributors.
Am I missing something ?
EDIT: found an earlier mention of 18d3HV2bm94UyY4a9DrPfoZ17sXuiDQq2B, it's a "superviser mode" address when precaution is on.

May be later Technically speaking, there is a minimum payout with p2pool also, due to higher difficulty. I'm waiting for eligius and other pools to start setting the global minimum difficulty above 1.0...

I'm waiting for eligius and other pools to start setting the global minimum difficulty above 1.0... Once the average speed of users grows a bit more, I'm looking into a minimum difficulty of 4 or 8 to start miners with on my pool, rather than 1. It can still be adjusted down with var-diff, but it will help for users who don't set their minimum difficulty adequately for ASICs.

May be later Technically speaking, there is a minimum payout with p2pool also, due to higher difficulty. I'm waiting for eligius and other pools to start setting the global minimum difficulty above 1.0... Global difficulty probably wont be for a while. Eligius, surprisingly, has quite a few very low hashrate miners still. So, global difficulty increase could make some of them submit only a few shares per day! I have been making some progress on my user control panel and I've been looking for a large enough block of free time to simply knock out the rest of the code for it. Options include minimum payout setting, starting difficulty setting, donation to pool %, and a few other minor things. All updated via signmessage for the miner address. (On a side note, I had actually planned on making the control panel completely client-side using javascript and such to construct the message to be signed so that updating the options would be done simply by submitting the appropriate signed message, but that was proving a little more complicated than I would like, so, just going to generate the message to be signed server-side for now.) I've had little free time the past several weeks due to non-bitcoin/pool related obligations eating my time. I should be able to work on this very soon, though. Also, manual payout sent in txid 10cc8398cca905a1129710bb6bef926f24c39c32f93eea8a66408db586c965a2 to catch up the payout queue from the longpoll-work blocks and such that were found. -wk

Correct. They will get paid the same rate, and it reflects the increased network difficulty.

Greetings miners! So far, I've not yet completed my signmessage-based control panel for user options. Hopefully sometime this week or at the latest on the weekend I will have time to do so. In the meantime, one of the biggest complaints/questions about the pool has been regarding the minimum payout of 400 TBC (0.67108864 BTC) being too high with today's difficulty and USD market price. So, that said, would anyone have any objections to lowering the global minimum payout for Eligius to 100 TBC (0.16777216 BTC), at least until the user control panel is completed and users can choose their own minimum payout. I do believe the current minimum payout was decided when the difficulty was at or below 1,000,000, and BTC->USD price was in the single digits, so, with difficulty currently around 4-5M, and market price much higher, I think this a reasonable drop in minimum payout. At current difficulty, a 1GH/sec miner would reach the payout queue with the new minimum on average every 38 hours. If there are no real objections to this, I will go ahead and make this change very soon (within the next couple of days). Happy mining! -wk

No objection here. I also have no objection to a ratio-based payment measure whereby the payout amount is locked to the difficulty, in case the difficulty goes to 10 million or higher in a very short time.

eligius.st seems to be offline. My miner is still connected so it seems to be a DNS issue.

It is a DNS issue. Use 78.47.187.253 for mining.

Parazyd, you could edit your hosts file to point directly to the IP in question. If you are on windows, go here: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc Open up hosts in Notepad, at the end of the list, add "78.47.187.253" (without quotes) then hit TAB and type "eligius.st" (without quotes) If you're using Linux, it's the same thing in /etc/hosts More info on this file here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_(file) ***IF YOU MAKE THIS CHANGE YOU SHOULD BE PREPARED TO CHANGE IT IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED***If you don't change it, then when a new IP is set, you'll still be going to the old IP.

Wrong. 78.47.187.253 = mining.eligius.st
