I switched to v1.2.2 of the back end a moment ago. What's new: - Faster reaction to block changes (detect blocks from other pools faster + initiate long poll response faster)
- Use X-Reject-Reason to tell the miner why its proof of work was rejected. Support for this coming in the next release of the BitMinter client which will log the messages. Support by other miners is listed here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Getwork_support
- Improved logging. There is a bug causing the back end to freeze up for 2-3 seconds. Seems to happen about once per day. Hopefully this will help track it down.

Lol, I like your optimism! Thats a good way to look at it... just getting our bad weeks over with early so its nothing but good ones from here on out All we need is for Bitcoin to start taking luck into account to help those that are short on it  |

What did you break Doc? You were supposed to run the pool server with --blocks=fast and --double-blocks, not with --blocks=ultra-slow  |

What's the chance of three > 95% CDF blocks in a row? :-(
I don't believe there is a bug. I've mined solo for long enough to be calm in cases like this. Between Christmas and New year 2010 my 5970 found 0 blocks at 700 Mhash/s, while a friend mining 1.8 Mhash/s on the CPU of a laptop found 2 blocks in 2 days. A short time after I found four blocks in less than 24 hours. Sometime around then I found two blocks with only one block between. Randomness is terribly unpredictable.

Sjå https://bitmynt.no for veksling av bitcoin mot norske kroner. Trygt, billig, raskt og enkelt sidan 2010. I buy with EUR and other currencies at a fair market price when you want to sell. See http://bitmynt.no/eurprice.plWarning: "Bitcoin" XT, Classic, Unlimited and the likes are scams. Don't use them, and don't listen to their shills. |

True, but this pool seems very nice and at least I won't lose out to hoppers since I mine 24/7 BTW, what do you do with NMCs? Don't see much demand for them. |

I used to trade my NMCs on BTC-E, but they no longer seem to accept NMC deposits, so Im just piling them up and will donate them to the pool once we have feature that allows that. Then its Docs problem . |

If you use cryptoxchange they have NMC features to buy sell and trade nmc for usd or BTC.
