[OLD] Eligius: ASIC, no registration, no fee CPPSRB BTC + 105% PPS NMC, 877 #

Something funny is happening at Eligius. My 3 hour hashrate dropped by +20%, and the graph is showing vert funky behaviour for ALL my miners... I was terribly worried about something electrical going on in my farm (you know, hashrate fluctuating wildly in all the miners, at the same time) but I checked the graph of other users and it seems that its the pool who is having the problem... Obviously cgminer show the miners hashing just fine.

Same here.  Something is definitely wrong.

Same problem here.

Wizzkid: please fix this issue ASAP, "time is money" (quite literally)

[spooderman]

?

[TiborB]

All my rigs got "connection interrupted" and switched to backup pool. Anybody else experiencing the same issue?
(I assume so since the pool total hashrate is dropping quickly...)

Cheers,

Yeah mining has stopped I'm on my backup pool.

[spooderman]

We were doing so well:(

[GrapeApe]

Yep back up for me as well. And yes we have been doing very well.
Nevermind back down

[ScaryHash]

It's down for me as well

[donut]

Still down. I've decided to mine using "load balance" strategy along with p2pool. This way I split my hash between p2pool and eligius, and if eligius is down I am not really affected.

I was freaking out because my normal backup is eclipse.. which is also down.

I've failed over, looks like POOL is having a few issues
I'll failback in the morning, if the pool stats look right again.

[donut]

It appears we are back.

Hmmm, blockchain.info says Eligius mined block 262294 and 262296 - but 262294 is not showing up in the GUI.  I hope it gets paid out.

Now neither of the blocks 262294 and 262296 are in the GUI. Something is really screwy.

Exactly. Its a pity, we were having a fun ride on elegius. Moved 100% of my hashrate to BTCGuild private servers, but oh boy the 3% fee hurts. A lot.

[Rampion]

Enoyhow, it looks funny that there are 10.9 steady TH/s and we mined a couple of blocks but they do not show up and no payments are made. I was up in the queue...

[LifeOnBitcoin]

Add Block 262301 to the ones which need to pay out. Eligius is acknowledging there are delays.

Greetings Miners,

Eligius was hit with a massive DDoS about 90 minutes ago.  It took quite a bit of resources to battle it but we're back online now.

I ended up stopping the reward system and stats while I was working on things, but they will all sync up momentarily.

No work accepted by the pool was lost, and in fact we found 3 blocks just recently.  They'll be on the stats shortly.

Thanks for mining Eligius!

P.S. - Personally, I suggest Bitminter as a failover for Eligius.  Only 1% fee.
