Looks stable again. But will have to do server upgrades sooner than planned.
There will be a little downtime today (tuesday) for upgrades.

since many avalons are popping up everywhere then any ETA, when litecoin is planned. Thinking of moving my GPU-s to litecoin already...gets too hard to mine bitcoins already  |

first thanks for fast down time. second thanks for the namecoins they are now worth more due to the bit coin rise. 555 name coins = 1 btc or 75 dollars. I mine 5 to 6 a day . so every 100 days that is about 75 bucks close to 250-300 a year. LTC would help.
I have 11 gpus
8x 7970
2x 7950
1x 7990.
I live in New Jersey and we have had a cold March but May or June I will need to use Air Conditioning and the asics may really drop. LTC will help me. I have 2x Jalapenos on order but getting asics is not easy. I do not want to get squeezed out.

yeah, have cold march here too, still -20°C cold at night, but next week they are promising already days where snow and ice starts melting...meaning temperature above 0°C, it means have to turn on the air conditioner  |

A little of each. i think we should stay with namecoins
Yeah, I have no immediate plans to get rid of namecoins. But litecoin doesn't support merged mining. I think the whole point of litecoin was to make CPU mining viable again, which is a bit of a strange motive for starting a new currency. If I add Litecoin then you have to choose between mining Bitcoin+Namecoin or Litecoin. Or you could put some of your hardware on Bitcoin+Namecoin and other hardware on Litecoin. |

I would most likely do 3000 hash on bit-name and 3000 hash on lite.
The problem I have is simple I can't get an avalon now that it is 6 or 7 thousand usd.
I have BFL gear on order who know how long that will take. My 6000 hash is what I have for now. In the form of 11 gpus 8x 7970's 2x 7950's 1x 7990. about 2400 watts an hour.
The max I had was 8000 hash. or 16 Gpus. about 3000 watts an hour
16 gpus will be too hard to run in the warm months.
I have spent 5 days trying to get lite coins to run it has been a no go. The lite coins would give more flexibility. oh coins are now over 83 usd!

I wouldnt even mind separate simple java prog (like bitminter) just for litecoin. Litecoin WAS ment for CPU only after bitcoins went to GPU-s, but smart ppl made litecoins work on GPU-s too |

We had an issue with bitcoind (the backend to access the bitcoin peer-to-peer network), which caused mining to stop for a few minutes.
Everything is back to normal now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Two stales in a row. Doc, does the above issue have anything in common? |

What's the deal with all the Stales? All these rigs running for nothing. Sure seems strange Pool jumps way up in speed and 3 stales right after. This is a pretty big deal i would think? I heard of bad luck but way to much coincidence right after Pool gains huge speed we are mainly mining stale blocks.
Really hoping this gets fixed before difficulty gets out of control.
