You get pretty nifty stats (when they are working). Here's a screenshot I had for the hashrate graph for two miners on the somewhat cranky EU pool:



You can't see individual stats for each worker unless you give each its own address (which might cause you to get spammed with small transactions once they come over the threshold), but otherwise I think Artefact2 has built one of the most detailed stats pages of any pool.

Payout from the EU pool is visible now in my client (11 more blocks needed).

I didn't get any payout for my unpaid EU balance yet, and my address isn't showing up in that block.
If this block is indeed from EU, it seems that the pool was withholding more than 50BTC and is still withholding the remainder.

Edit: News:

[17:54] <ulee> Am I right with the assumption, that after the the server is fixed and another block is found, the EU payouts will happen for real? (Yes, I know there's "Europe balances were paid off Friday morning." in the topic, but apparently this didn't happen.)

Now that I think about it, it's possible that the payout was from the s3 pool, I'm not really sure.

It sounds like the EU payments are set up to be sent as transactions, like happened with the outstanding US balance.

if you do that you need to copy paste one address for each worker and when you want to checks stats will be a pain

I'm still waiting my unpaid EU balance. The US one was received promptly when Luke-Jr said it would, but nothing yet for EU.

Due to database issues, the pool is going to be down for a few hours Sorry for the inconvenience.

It's Monday here already and still haven't got the EU server payout. The arrangements should've been clearly outlined on the websie from the begining (before the EU server shut down) and then updated with any changes. I'm done mining with Eligius - it's a f*king joke with pretty graphs.

Seems he had a family emergency.  Also, while it was up the site listed a note to setup a backup miner & to expect downtime until they have fixed the problem.

Eligius pool announcements

The pool is back up, but balance stats will be inaccurate for some time, and shares might be lost during intermittant database corruption.

It is recommended to setup failover to another pool for the time being, as we may be making changes to avoid possible long-downtime in the future, and that has at least a risk of breaking stuff on and off.

Recent outages seem to be probable hardware failures. We expect to have a replacement server online tomorrow.

Posted in case site is down.

Hey guys, I appear to have been paid for my US server shares on Eligius but the EU server hasn't yet paid me out-I thought these went out on Thursday?

Luke-Jr posted that the transaction is currently being broadcasted to the bitcoin network, however there appear to be no pools (besides eligius itself) that accept this transaction.

So the transaction will probably be processed when the eligius pool finds a block.

What exactly do "current block estimate" and "maximum reward" mean in Artefact2's stats?

I'm wondering the same. As my "block estimate" currently goes down, I assume the pool has used up all its savings. At the same time, "Maximum reward" goes up like I expect my reward to do in a pure PPS scenario.

So maybe "maximum reward" is the amount of BTC we will be awarded in the future, if the pool has a few lucky rounds?

That would make sense... so I guess "block estimate" is wavering up and down because my share of the pool is changing, which normally doesn't matter under PPS but does matter now that the total payout has exceeded 50 BTC?

Yes

Specifically, the total payout-if-this-were-PPS exceeded 50+64 (excess from past blocks) = 114 BTC.

It seems like Eligius will NOT find a block, unless something gets corrected. I am mining at Slush also, I get the new block notifications there, but no such notifications on Eligius.

How long of a round are you currently going on? I don't have miners at Eligius atm.
