Today we introduced to our pool support for ixcoins. Currently difficulty in ixcoins chain is pretty low. So we can mine a lot of coins ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

I tried this pool out for the ixcoins support. Unfortunately, I messed up and submitted more than 400 shares to port 8344 before realizing something was wrong. Are these shares lost forever?
I switched it and the shares seems to be going by a ton faster. Weird.

I'm sorry to hear that. I didn't test such scenario so here are my speculations:
When you tried to connect to port 8344 you didn't send any shares but info that you want get new work when new block will be found. Server responded to your miner when there was new block, sending to you new piece of work. I'm not 100% sure how your miner program handled this situation. But it should rather reject these messages. In my database first proper share received from you 2011-08-14 00:10:59.890 (assuming your username is zoomerzaos). If you remember when you switched to 8322 this should answer your question.

It offers *nothing* bitcoin doesn't, it has zero incentive for adaption, all the easy coins were mined & are being distributed like candy on the forum Plus the owner is under a pseudonym (by a surname that does not exist) & using a photo of a japanese actor called Hiroyuki Sanada. Identical to BTC down to the supposed japanese author and front site At least namecoin has a purpose

Thanks for the response, I just changed the server from ars and forgot to check the port. The miner appeared to be mining, so I left it alone for a while. I'm entirely sure what happened, but given the small amount of shares, it's not a big deal. Nice pool by the way, my stales are much less than 1%.

I'm glad that you like our setup. Currently stales may be even higher than usually because of ixcoin rush. Yesterday shortest round lasted only 16 sec! Regarding stales we are quite liberal. We accept shares even few seconds after new block. But we don't accept the same work sent twice, works from other pools ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) , etc.

I've added I0coins to Coinotron.
Now you can mine for BTC, NMC, IXC or I0C
Please visit our pool.

2011-08-24 New functions added:
- new worker type: AUTO ( Systems automatically chooses what coin to mine for. There is no need to point your workers to other sites, ports etc. Just choose AUTO option for worker and everything will be done by system! Calculation is based on current exchange rates, difficulties and number of coins generated in blocks. ) - support for SolidCoins - profitability ratio for each coin type - you see what coin is best to mine - user interface improvements

On your system I would like Way to see the shares submitted while on auto. Also It would be cool if you could post the BTC to ALT currency exchange rate directly on the main page, next to the ratio. Most importantly, while the mining is on auto select, an automatic selling feature of the coins mined to ensure that BTC is gained and not lost by missing the sell window. As even if it was more profitable to mine an ALT currency at a specific time, it would be usless if one missed the sell window at the given price that made the mining worthwhile.

shares on auto
I've done it but worked slowly and temporarly turned it off ( There is no index in database to support required select ) BTC to ALT currency exchange rate directly on the main page, next to the ratio
I will add it and probaly I will add difficulty too Most importantly, while the mining is on auto select, an automatic selling feature of the coins mined to ensure that BTC is gained and not lost by missing the sell window.
You are right. That would be cool option.

You could do it by trading the ALT coins on your own, or a different bitparking account and then posting the coins to our coinotron account. Also since we are on the topic of auto switching mining between coins, how about submitting 1 share to each of the mining pools and then sharing in the bounty of all the pools. It could be thought of as a kind of merged mining without the actual need to merge the block chains.

Other simple options I thought would be great to add; could you include in the 'My Account' screen a count of how many coins have been mined in the last 24 hours. That will give us some ideas as to how our mining is actually doing.

I understand that you are taking about coins mined by actually logged in user. OK. I added this idea to the list of new requirements.

Yes that solution is obvious but has disadvantages. It generates a lot of manual work for pool operator (trading at bitparking, runnung batches, answering all questions relatated to exchange rates. ) Personally I would prefer some kind of automated exchange but since bitparking doesn't provide us with api it is actually not feasible. Also since we are on the topic of auto switching mining between coins, how about submitting 1 share to each of the mining pools and then sharing in the bounty of all the pools. It could be thought of as a kind of merged mining without the actual need to merge the block chains.
ATM it will not work because client for each blockchain requires different proof of work. As far as I'm know merged mining addresses this issue by changing block acceptance algorithm.
