28 minutes since last block so far. I know, I know, law of averages...but that's weird.

It has been different from what the announcement said, is not every 7 minutes to solve each block.

Well, no chain meets that exactly, all the time - difficulty gets adjusted after each block to attempt to hold the average. While it took 30 minutes to get the block I was watching, the next 4 came super fast (like 1-2 minutes apart). It's more a curiosity than anything else. You can't predict exactly when a hash will be solved, just keep adjusting with the new information as you get it.

I know that but it's just weird what like noxpost said.

utxooverride=123456

I thought utxooverride=-1 was for ppl that have extra wallet miners that do not want PODCupdate sent from a specific wallet miner. For example, you have two BiblePay QT wallet up and the one with utxooverride=-1 does not send PODCUPDATES.

I know that but it's just weird what like noxpost said.

No, not weird at all. Algorithm can't predict when hashers will submit a hash that solves the block. It can only set the difficulty to get an average as close to 7 minutes as possible.

I have a question regarding WCG. Since R@H still doesn't work properly on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS I created a WCG account under the exact same e-mail address I use for Rosetta. Unfortunately the CPID for WCG does NOT match my current CPID.

If you want the Rosetta@Home CPID (the older CPID) to transfer to the WCG CPID, you have to run both projects on BOINC. This way, they know that the older CPID should apply to the WCG. Usually, it only takes a few hours for the update to occur. This is from the BOINC GUI, I'm not sure if the boinccmd (command line version on Linux) knows if other project's CPID should be changed.

Thx, that's what I'm currently doing right now, let's see how things work out.
Additionally I copied my desired CPID to the "external_cpid" field in client_state.xml (as described here: https://steemit.com/gridcoin/@dutch/the-definitive-guide-to-fixing-a-split-cpid-gridcoin-s-and-boinc-s-1-problem). Not sure if this is gonna help^^.


On a completely unrelated note: I think someone found a way to crunch Rosetta tasks with GPUs. This user: https://boinc.bakerlab.org/rosetta/hosts_user.php?sort=expavg_credit&rev=0&show_all=0&userid=1994560 has machines with completely ridiculous CPUs but sporting 6 AMD cards. His best machine is currently at a whopping 19k RAC, which most certainly does not hail from the single Celeron G1620.

I think you're getting punked. Someone more likely spoofed the CPU & GPU ids sent from BOINC.

What config change do I need if I want to switch over to the testnet?

[orbis]

April from BLOOM says Hi to us from the Christian Alliance for Orphans Conference, and we have a friend that made a video thanking us for our help:



https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kqHi43pjbeP6kXcbRhYDjYSikaJbuBQw/view

This is awesome. Maybe it will be good to have all these "thanks cards" (videos or images) in one place.

Just use "testnet=1" in biblepay.conf

I have a question regarding WCG. Since R@H still doesn't work properly on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS I created a WCG account under the exact same e-mail address I use for Rosetta. Unfortunately the CPID for WCG does NOT match my current CPID.

Now I associated WCG on ONE machine and it currently solves a couple of tasks. As Rob wrote on #5953 this issue should solve itself within a day or so.
Now my question: is a matching email the only requirement for this automatic fix? Since my current user name for R@H was already taken I chose a different one for WCG. Is this a problem? In that case I would simply change BOTH user names to a (third) user name that is not taken on any of the projects. Regarding that: will changing the user name affect my payout/BBP association?

Basically, all of the boinc projects have to be compliant behind the scenes with a lot of boinc business logic (including wcg).  So one rule is the machine public key (this is in your boinc xml file) plus the email address of the user creates the CPID for WCG.  Since we know this is true, we ask you to use the same e-mail as rah.  So what happens is if you mount the wcg project on the same machine as RAH is running on - when boinc posts a status update for WCG, WCG realizes you need your WCG cpid changed - and it logs this as a request, but they only change it once per day in their internal batch job (@ wcg)...

I read that split cpids article but I think they overcomplicated the issue.  (Ive had a lot of servers in the past running various boinc projects and sold a lot of these) and it all really boils down to correcting the e-mail address and worst case scenario:  Running RAH first, unmounting WCG and re-mounting WCG.  Ive never seen the need to actually edit the XML file, wcg does the heavy lifting in the background.

finally proposal list looks good ... thx ROb


but why didnt work Funded List ?

The proposals that get funded only hang on that page for 7 days.  I'm working on the expand collapse button that affects the entire pool.

If I get that button working, we can make the funded list hang much longer.

I recently introduced a family member to BBP - he mines with a small laptop and was getting a few coins a day from Rosetta RAC

A couple of weeks back - payment stopped  - although the had RAC and a stake
Everything looked OK - latest wallet / CPID  / RAC / stake / etc     but still no payments

I tried adding UTXOamount =xxxx even though it is supposed to automaticallly pick up the stake - lo and behold - payments started again
FYI - his stake is about 3500 BBP

I see a lot of smaill miners in the superBlock report in the same situation - ie: 0 magnitude although they have RAC
I wonder if there is an issue picking up the UTXOamount for small stakes

You might try to add below command while not a "UTXOamount" , WIKI is out date but no one edit it....

utxooverride=123456

If anyone is interested to Edit anything on the Wiki please do!
The wiki is open to everyone! just have to create an account

The Mining guides are not fully complete
http://wiki.biblepay.org/Distributed_Computing_2
https://www.biblepay-central.org/en/mining-how-to/

Typically every few weeks I go through past few weeks of posts and document everything,
But I have not been doing this since probably February, and I got really burnt out mid way through the PODC stuff,
but I am making a come back!

Anyone can be paid in BiblePay coins for doing work for BiblePay,
if anyone wants to work on the mining guide, you have my vote to get funded for your work

Personally, I am a religious person and I would like to believe that this is not just a coin created for commercial purposes, but one that can solve the problems that were raised in this discussion.

Someone in Discord asked if BiblePay logo was on any merchandise like a coffee mug,

It looks like ALT-J90 still has a Zazzle Shop with items if anyone is interested:

The next Budget Superblock is in 11 days

Type command "getgovernanceinfo"
"nextsuperblock": 49200

Interestingly we dont have many proposals this month, so if anyone wants to propose any work its a good time to do it now!
Just create a pre-proposal in the forum: http://forum.biblepay.org/index.php?board=5.0
and then enter your proposal through the pool: https://pool.biblepay.org/ >>> Governance >>> Proposal Add
It costs 2500 BBP to enter a proposal (ask Rob if you need help funding your pool account)

BiblePay dedicates 20% of the monthly emissions to the budget, with 10% going to Charity and the other 10% going to IT/PR/etc

You can view current and past proposals in the BiblePay forum,
and current proposals up for voting on the Pool

I've got an enhancement request - but I won't enter a bug on Github, because it clearly isn't one.

I love the prayer text in the wallet, which is a great reminder. However, when I'm actually having prayer time, it's a little hard to get a list of all the things, and I could conceivably forget one. Is there a way already to dump out the prayer requests, say from the last 7-10 days? Or maybe to click the prayer request text and get the next one in the list? I feel like I could be more effective with a way to get a series of them at once or quickly peruse them.

In debug window do : exec testprayers

This is the best way I can find for now...  I have a few other ideas but i'm not ready to implement them yet.

It would be nice to have the list in the wallet,  possible future request.
