bitHopper: Python Pool Hopper Proxy

[Sukrim]

I'll publish them on a public Wuala folder most likely in 1-2 days latest, you can link that then

@c00w:
Please remove line 16 from database.py, it's not intended this way. It overwrites the whole stuff before.

I think he sneaked that one in there while we weren't looking.

Thx pbj!

how do i join the pool? seems like i just did my own pool when i changed minipool name.

https://organofcorti.triplemining.com/register

but I think you have to make a new account.

^ you bet

I keep getting "User timeout cause connection failure" with bitclockers but it doesn't seem to be affecting anything

[paraipan]

If any one is interested I made an edit to the index.html so each pool name is a link to its corresponding web address. Makes it easier to visit a pool while reviewing pool stats. The links open in a new tab / window.

Just add the line "url: http://site-address-here.com" to the pool.cfg file for each pool and then change code in the index.html to the code below.

Code:

function getName(payload, srv) {
	return "<a href='" + srv['url']  + "' target='_blank' style='text-decoration:underline;color:" + getColor(payload,srv) + ";'>" + srv['name'] + "</href>";
}

function getColor(payload, srv) {
	if(payload['servers'][payload['current']]['name'] == srv['name']) {
		return 'yellow';
	}
	if(srv['lag'] == true) {
		return 'red';
	}
	return 'white';
}

I will make a pull req. for you if you want.
The code you released is public domain or you transfer copyright to c00w?

edit:
now I have found that it musst have something wrong with my pool.cfg
with the original pool.cfg it's ok...
I will inspect it now...

Something else that c00w said:

Errors with role:
Um check you pool.cfg and make sure very pool has its role specified. Thats the error. Some pool doesn't have a role.

man you have a stubborn hopper there

Is bitcoins.lc playing games again? - web site says 9,987,464 rounds,  json says 138,973, but bithopper says 126183 blocks!

Running the latest c00w hopper and I see that the "Exp" value is your current shares divided by difficulty.  Wouldn't it be better to do your current shares divided by the total shares of the pool instead?  That way at anytime you could glance to see how much your shares are really worth.

Would be awesome to have a total at the bottom as well where your "Total Expected:" earnings could be added.

Maybe, or they could just be delaying the update on the website.  They usually delay stats updates for 0-3600 seconds.  If it reaches 200-250k shares and the website doesn't update then there is probably trickery afoot.

Yea, there is trickery I think.  I remember the 126183 number from last time he started messing around.  Apparently he set the same number of shares this time.  Weird.  I disabled them for the moment.

I think he is fking around so hoppers would help with the longer round.

Time to add on the fly payout type to web interface? Click -> PPLNS -> Ok
Save c00w from having to change code when pools pull this.

[Clipse]

Looks like its afterall just the webpage stats that is fked at bitcoins.lc, just got paid for the long block and its still counting on the webpage.

I think the json is accurate and we are in a new block actually.

well crap.. I wonder when they did that, cause I have zero coin there and I know I have mined there. I was on united miners before c00w added them officially to the hopper.

it sorta annoys me a bit, as I warned the guy that we were coming, cause his site claims all kinds of fault tolerance. He thanked me both in the forum and via email... but he couldnt tell us he was changing payment methods?



or did we hop without looking?I know i did, someone said they were good to hop so I added them.

I guess they just added it.. or will add it shortly

eh

WE NEED MORE proportional pools


does mineco.in now work with mine_slush?

Ironically, if he didn't fk around he'd probably get mine_charity miners.
Seems to me the question of ethics is being turned around. Faking stats is now the unethical thing, hopping is just an alternative lifestyle.

[Clipse]

Well it now seems the json isnt updating but the webstats is fixed(he had some downtime few mins ago to fix that)

prob best to just disable for now since its allready pass 43% for this round.

Yep on July 28 it was prop. Changed mid block. Another unethical pool op-per.

Although, don't use mine_charity yet, there is a bug with it and they don't get picked up for regular mining.  Its fixed, just waiting for it to get picked up by c00w

does mineco.in now work with mine_slush?

Mineco.in

We are now trialing a PPLNS reward scheme.

Who does this benefit?

In brief, this benefits 24/7 miners whilst still allowing others to get rewards for their work, but their rewards will start decreasing once they leave the pool.
