[ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - www.middlecoin.com

[RickJamesBTC]

H2O: please respond... there are some facts right now that you might can blow away. You have to know that you have a lot of responsibility. I have lost because of your bad pool about 2000 USD. I like to pay you 3% of my 200.000 khs when YOU do a good job. But, what do I get from you when you are doing a BAD job??

Are you running a backup pool? Failover to the eu middlecoin pool? I've only got a quarter of what you do (did? 200 now? Last you said 160) but this pool still has solid payouts.

These are all FACTS.

that's nothing but circumstancial evidence.  you have failed to show any elements of fraudulent activity.  

the fact is, eroxors feels he sent you 0.5btc for a video card, and you never sent the video card you were selling.

I have not heard from tealover since the 10th when he said this via PM:

Hey man I'm so sorry, I fell friday night on the sidewalk, I was out drinking and tripped. Landed on my head, skull has a small crack. Got out of hospital sunday night. Can send pics/proof/whatever if needed. I'll try to ship today or tomorrow. Sorry for delay!  I'm looking at probably a $10,000 hospital bill

He last logged in the 16th. I sent him 0.4899 on the 5th of June. txid: 2f7e3d80d06697cd551698c7d2e1b8d2201786cd0752eab98a657fb455381662

note eroxors posted the transaction ID for his payment, yet i am still not accusing you of fraud.  i am asking you to clarify this for all of us so we can take you at your word.  otherwise, you may be engaging in libel, and opening yourself to legal action for damaging middlecoin's business model with false, written statements.    as I said before, accusations of fraud should be taken extremely seriously, which is why you should not only make sure you can back up your accusations with actual proof of malicious intent, and why you need to address the concerns the community has regarding your trust rating.  

'tread lightly.'

What are the benefits to the later versions of CGMIner?

Im using 3.1.0 for a while now, never saw a reason to update-

[MiMiMiner]

Precompiled patched versions of the most popular versions of cgminer for LINUX.

Tested under BAMT and also vanilla ubuntu.

3.1.1   http://www35.zippyshare.com/v/41020470/file.html
3.3.1   http://www35.zippyshare.com/v/61573146/file.html
3.5.0   http://www35.zippyshare.com/v/99102641/file.html
3.7.2   http://www35.zippyshare.com/v/59760161/file.html

Hope this helps some of you. Enjoy.

Thanks. Does anyone have them for Windows?

EDIT:  Linked above.

It really amazes me how much some people want to be spoonfed; How much can I make with this hash?  How can I set up a load balance?  Why is the server doing this?  Where can I find this?

I am far from a computer or a mining expert, I've just been doing this with my 7950 since the start of December, but if I want an answer, I'll google it, I'll use the search on bitcointalk, I'll read the CGminer README (it's called that for a reason.)

If I still can't find an answer then maybe I'll post about it, but as a last resort rather than a first.

I think it does show the good character in this thread though, most forums I know 90% of the posts would be shouted down for not doing the above.

Talk about being spooned and using search, next time do some searching of your own and you would of read that his site is inaccessible for me. I can not load his page. Now go act like a fool on another forum. Retard.

Bal3wolf. Thanks for compiling windows versions. I've been trying to download them from you for the last couple of days but for some reason your server just times out on me without ever loading the page.

heres a drop box link for a few of them i posted it befor but stuff gets lost in here.

But are they for linux?

I was mining on the EU server, the VS server is dropping my hashrate way to much - I think. So I stepped out to start mining somewhere else on DOGE because of the bad stats not showing the balance good. Maybe my bad, but I he is doing a decent job or communicate more, big change I stay mining at middlecoin.

Again, I am ok with paying 3%. Maybe up to 5%. But I need a good pool!

[blopblop]

Yes same experience for me in the lastest days, bad hashrate in US server, and bad profit in EU server minning something with very high difficulty (low profit).

To answer some questions:

This is my fulltime job. I work way more than 40 hours a week. I also have two part time employees. It would be nice to hire more, but there are trust issues, so I only work with friends.

The address 1xowiTAdUeux71ExGmSW6qK5FPrGDa3Mp is a transaction "refund".

The US pool isn't any worse than it was before. It's just switching more, which is fine except for the disconnects it's causing.

I'm close to finishing the new tech that doesn't disconnect on coin switches, but it's losing 0.6% of hashrate due to a bug. It might be worth rolling out anyway, with this bug.

Thanks for your respond. Please do this more. We really like your work, but communication and trust is very important!

Please roll it out, it is better then the current version, right?

I'm losing 6-7% of hashrate now because of instability. I'll take .6 while you work on it without a question.

[CaptainBeck]

Argh!!!!!

H20 you keep making me money while i do NOTHING!!!

If you keep doing this I will be forced to keep my miners on your pool!!!

I'm very angry at you.... please stop making us money while we do nothing!!!

Not whining - but with a lot of kh/s you also have ALOT of powerbils to pay ;-)

[MiMiMiner]

But, because of H2o his communication I have switched everything back to the US pool. Hopefully he will do the update with the 0.6% bug


Go go go!

[Firebug24k]

I am still confused why people think H20 "owes" anyone anything, or "cost" them money... if you don't like the pool anymore, please leave, and stop cluttering up this thread.  My ignore list is getting really long.

thanks for this.  i remember you checking in and tweaking stuff on xmas day.  You've consistently gone above and beyond for this pool many times, and dote on the backend at all hours.

[ibfr33k]

Thanks for the Dropbox links. Hope it helps the 15% drop I'm getting on the us server compared to before Xmas.

H2o, .6% would be a great improvement for me. Lol.

Agreed, I am probably down in the 5-10% range the past few days since the issues popped up. 0.6% would be negligible compared to what most of us have seen.

[Dende]

keep up the good work h2o

hope you roll out the update soon. People mining for fiat would want to take advantage of the current rally. As for me, im in for bitcoin

[willittobe]

For those of you who do "nothing", well, speak for yourselves only.

Agreed, my hashrate has been hosed down ~5% since these issues began. 0.6% would be a great improvement until the bug can be fixed.

Also, a break on fees would indeed be a nice gesture due to the above.

[ripsnort]

There are currently some network issues with coin switching. It occasionally doesn't switch, and hangs for 20 seconds or so. This seems to happen once in every 5 switches or so.

I'm working on a fix, but in the mean time if you want a workaround, and you can are ok with recompiling cgminer, you can:

in https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer/blob/master/util.c

change:

Code:

const int tcp_keepidle = 45;
const int tcp_keepintvl = 30;

to:

Code:

const int tcp_keepidle = 5;
const int tcp_keepintvl = 4;

These occur twice in the file.

Thanks to `Kevin on IRC for this.

Does anyone know whether the above changes are the same as the 5-minute failover interval that is discussed at below links?  Just wondering if there are additional improvements that can still be made.
