[ANN] StarTrek insipred coins =) and mining links (Low Diff) Nice Bounties!

[meta.p02]

Also, a problem: the blocks I find seem to be all rejected by my solo client (lost 2 blocks already). Falling back to pool mining for now

(Edit: seems like I missed an upgrade)

Not much I can do on 10KH/s


@Gundamcoin: 7GPL -> 35 blocks -> at 0.025 diff and 300KH/s is only supposed to be 3.5 hours. Yeah, there's probably something wrong.

Hi scifi,

i added the answer from dream few days ago.
The transaction show up in the block explorer, but in my client i didnot see it.

I finally got the test explorers patched up and running, and I see the transaction:

FDegfdYodXH2kpSYjm6PWfeQd8hA8DHeNT   100.10967

Date/Time   Transaction   Amount    Balance

I see an additional 73.48699 sent and then withdrew today, So I am assuming you go your client fixed up?

Some more details on my wallet as screenshot below:
I also can send you my wallet.dat (of course after send out all GPL ), but that only in worst case...

Dreamwatcher,


There seems to be something wrong with your new pool. I've been mining KED for a few hours now, and my balance has not increased at all. If I look at the transaction history, I can see that I get credited for the shares from each block, but somehow they don't add up to the main balance. Not sure if others are having the same issue.


Scify,

Is there anyway to fix those unconfirmed 352 KEDs of mine?

I guess it's good that we are discovering these kinks before they go more mainstream, sort of beta testing/QA-ing these coins.

I am an experienced IT-professional/developer in real life, although not very seasoned with cryptos yet. I'd love to help out to make these coins successful if needed. Been tempted to create my own pools, but not sure if they are necessary at the moment. 

[meta.p02]

You need to wait for the blocks you got your rewards to confirm 120 times first (should take 2 hours) before the rewards are confirmed. How long have you been mining? If the network is slow at that time the confirmations might take longer. (If the blocks have confirmed 120x but you have not received your reward, contact dreamwatcher.)

I'd suggest continuing to mine for a while more first and see if some rewards confirm.

(Out of curiosity, what is your hashrate? You've mined 100 blocks worth of KED already! I only got 54 solo blocks after mining for God knows how long...)

Ahh yes, the Mr. empty pants...errr empty block issue. 

I had forgotten to move custom cron job I use to fix the issue of no-share blocks when I moved the pool to the VPS it is now on.

You should now see a rush of activity on your account as the accounting crons catch up.

[Shad3dOne]

KAAAAaaaaahhhnnnnn!!!!

[Xaltotun]

Is there any more info on the POS on these coins? I've noticed the UFC's are pulling some in but I've gotten nothing from GPL. Also, Darseks did get me a 0.0 stake once but haven't seen anything since.

After the updated wallets, Darseks are now showing the same message that PPC gets with locked wallets: "Minting suspended due to locked wallet". Do we need to follow the same instructions that are used for PPC to unlock?

[dreamwatcher]

OMG, Bitcointalk is back! It's alive!

Btw, KED has been stuck for 15 hours, no new block.


I have been having problem mining GPL using the scrypt-jane-gpu that's posted above. I keep getting "Invalid Nonce - HW error." even after tweaking the conf to be very conservative. Is there something I need to know with the scrypt-jane miner that's different that typical cgminer conf?

I am using 7950, been able to find a decent conf for both KED and UFC within the past week. No luck with GPL. I'd appreciate some pointers.

Thanks

Lately it seems getting cgminer (and its forks for mining gpl,yac..etc) has been quite the voodoo of getting the right SDK and driver version working with version of cgminer you or the modified cgminer uses.

On my 6950 rigs, I often find it easier just to run version 2.11.2 cgminer.

I just moved some hardware around on my rigs, so I have to setup my 7950 rig again, I will post back when I can confirm a working SDK-Driver-YAC or YBC miner combo to mine GPL.

I am looking into the issue with the KED pool.

OK I have my rigs set back up and this is what I have so far.

For the 7950 rig:

AMD-Driver version: 13.4 (The latest non-beta drivers)

SDK: AMD-APP-SDK-v2.8.1.0

cgminer: 2.11.2

For plain scrypt mining (KED-UFC) I use this config:

Code:

{
"pools" : [

        {
                "url" : "http://kedcoin.com:7777",
                "user" : "dreamwatcher.3",
                "pass" : "xxxxxxx"
        }
]
,
"intensity" : "17",
"vectors" : "2",
"worksize" : "256",
"kernel" : "scrypt",
"lookup-gap" : "2",
"thread-concurrency" : "24000",
"shaders" : "1792",
"gpu-engine" : "1025",
"gpu-fan" : "0-75",
"gpu-memclock" : "1480",
"gpu-memdiff" : "0",
"gpu-powertune" : "0",
"gpu-vddc" : "0.000",
"temp-cutoff" : "95",
"temp-overheat" : "85",
"temp-target" : "75",
"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "120",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"gpu-platform" : "0",
"gpu-threads" : "1",
"hotplug" : "5",
"log" : "5",
"no-pool-disable" : true,
"queue" : "4",
"scan-time" : "1",
"scrypt" : true,
"temp-hysteresis" : "3",
"shares" : "0",
"kernel-path" : "/usr/local/bin"
}

And get this result:

There is a big drop in  KH/s.  Remember that GPL (Yac based) is designed to be more inefficient with GPU, eventually the N-factor will be high enough where GPU mining will not be worth it and the coin will probably be CPU only. I have not done any real tweaking however with the GPL config, so I am sure with some tweaking better numbers can be had.

You also need to keep in mind that CPU will drop as well, just not as dramatically since it is slower than GPUs. If it is unprofitable for GPU it most certainly will be for CPU.

Hey SciFicoin,

sorryh to ask in this thead, i was wondering if Dollarpounds, Offerings, and Saurons Rings will be on the scifi exchange. i have save enought to give out some and sell some when the exchange opens.


j

Yes   Dollarpounds  (at launch)

Yes Offerings    (at launch)

No Saurons Rings.  The dev of the coin has never contacted me.  If they want these coins on the exchange they just need to start a conversation and we will definitely consider the coin. 

Hey, scifi, what's about the progress of the exchange now

[clock27]

as a trekkie im lovin the names of the coins where are the ferengi to mine them all lol

Hey, scifi, what's about the progress of the exchange now

I +1 this. I want that Sci Fi Exchange bad!

The first stage of the roll out will be to a few people involved with the coin.  They will report obvious issues (if any).  I still have hope this will be tonight, but don't hold me to it.  Providing that all goes well the full official beta launch will be a day or 2 later. (all going well)


But I in the run up to the Public Live date we are launching a completion.  

We are giving away 3 PC games.   Crysis 3,  Bio-shock Infinite and Far Cry Blood Dragon.   The moment the exchange goes public we will record the time and date.   Any miners active at this time at Dreamwatchers pools will be in the hat for a free game.  

Here are the rules.

1. Every miner has equal chance of winning a PC game, regardless of past, current, or future hash rate / activity.

2. 1 Random miner at UFC pool at exchange live time wins.  EA Origin download code for Crysis 3
3. 1 Random miner at KED pool at exchange live time wins. Steam download code for Bio-shock Infinite
4. 1 Random miner at GPL pool at exchange live time wins. Ubishop download code for Far Cry Blood Dragon

5.  Users that are splitting there workers into different usernames to get extra chances will be disqualified.
6.  The live time will be chosen based on the time we choose British Summer Time (BST).
8.  If you have been mining for a long time (IE a miner that has been mining before this was competition announced), and for what ever reason your hash rate at the exchange was 0 when the time was chosen...we will consider offering a small consolation in coins.
7.  The decision will be final.

8. Dreamwatcher has said he will offer a price as well.. 2 usernames to get 0% fee for life at the pools. Dreamwatcher will confirm the rules on this.  

9.  These rules are subject to change at any time.  
10.  You are free to sell on the codes as you see fit if not required.
11.  We are happy to use any random method at all for picking the winners/runners up.

I dream of the day where I can own the 4x7950 rig I've wanted for a long time.

I started with one 6850, and exchanged it with one 7950 last week. 4 would be lovely, but they are hot, noisy, and costly. Not good for the Mrs...

Finally able to pool mine GPL. All of these times I got the start time wrong,  I was using  --StartT 1377557832 per Jonoiv's post instead of --StartT 1377557867.

A difference of 35 seconds won't do anything much, though.
