[CLOSED] R10: BLACK ARROW Bullet Run w Bitfury! 40% off, $123=8-10GH Nov 1

Well this isn't good... my payment is still unconfirmed.  What happens if the hour goes by and you still don't have it?

It should be fine as long as its pending, as its expecting it to come in but just isn't confirmed yet. I'm looking at the wallet now and it doesn't show any pending so I'm guessing your all set.

order # 306  =  completed  10/21/2013   2 shares


order # 349 + processing  10/27/2013  1 share 

 this order was paid for :

here is my payout address:

please correct.


Since I have 9 shares paid for from 10-16  to 10-28   how do they get counted  for when hashing starts?  I would guess first in first out?

processing just means its paid but hasn't been entered into the spreadsheet or has been and is just missing a payout address. If it says "On-hold" that's the problem.

Orders are entered to the spreadsheets first paid first entered

I have one order on hold, and one processing, so we have a duplicate in the system:

ORDER   DATE   STATUS   TOTAL   
#380   October 31, 2013    Processing   $123 for 1 item   
#320   October 22, 2013    On-hold   $123 for 1 item   

I sent in payment for 380, so you can nuke the one or the other and put me on either 10 or 11.

I have an update: some good news, bad news.

Bad: He's still working out the chaining of the miners. This is important because he only has so many Pis. We're also seeing a little under performance as far as hashrate but kano is working on the cgminer chainminer integration so we should see improvements on that. Such is life on the bleeding edge of a bullet run.

Good: Since bobsag3 is basically Good Guy Bob he's going to make sure that to add a board to our 20 board stack to get our min. hashrate to 8.34GH/s as promised while software issues are worked on. He also managed to stack 6 boards, so far, even with the issues he's seeing.

Bobsag's busy as heck but I'll post some pics he shared with me as soon as I upload them to my cloud photos.

I realized that I'm a little bummed that they're under performing, but sometimes things don't always work out with initial implementations. But on the bright side this was guaranteed to be shipping by Nov. 1 and we're fortunate to have already received it! kano has been shipped a simultaneous shipment so he'll hopefully be able to tweak some improvements while he adds native BA support to chainminer.

Group Buyers are going to be compensated for any under performance of the 8.34 GH/s mark per share that was promised.

Damn was really hoping they would push to 10.  Good work though.

Remember these are new boards, software hasn't been configured for them yet so if they are operating slightly under spec its not a bad thing when software is finished they should be much faster.

I have the utmost faith that bobsag3 will squeeze the best possible performance out of these biotches for us.  We are dealing with cutting edge mining tech and there will always need to be tweaking.

Good points, I need patience

Gents and ladies, a Saturday, 11/2 update:

- Bob's been having problems chaining the miners beyond a certain point which has limited his ability to stack miners as he only has so many Pis to go around. He seems to have gotten past much of the earlier issues but can't stack more than 6 at the moment (the goal was 10 boards per Pi)
- He's blown a few Pis and a couple of PSUs during his testing.
- He's currently up to almost 1 TH (our target is 3.2 - 4 TH, combined from all 4 Rounds
- He's currently short Pis due to them failing,and his overnight shipment of a bunch of extras from Amazon is stuck at UPS till Monday
- We've learned a lot too: Bullet Runs can be messy, best to have waaay more supplies than you think you needed

- Because I promised optimistically that the boards would be running by now, we're going to make up the hashrate difference based on the following schedule:

Rounds 9/10 should be up to 1TH today, the target is 1.68 - 2TH/s: This pool has just started mining, but there's no dashboards set up yet. When mining deposits appear they're heading to this Black Arrow Bullet Run wallet address: https://blockchain.info/address/1JazVMG7E47ceaTnwbGzeGsrAQeURniwZV

For calculation purposes - Since yesterday, Nov.1, for daily coins expected to be mined I'll be using www.bitcoinx.com as a calculator for lost hashrate compensation calculations unless someone else has a better suggestion.

Rounds 11/12 should be running by the end of the day in Missouri by Monday evening: If hashrate is less than the promised 1.68 TH/s for R11/12 by Tuesday morning, then the same calculations listed above for lost hashrate calculations still apply.


===============================================================================================================


We'd rather take a small hit and keep our co-op members happy, then to have upset co-op members due to the delays. With this in mind, Bobsag3 is adding 3 extra boards per GB (instead of 1 extra) in order to improve hashrate and make up for lost mining power for each Group Buy Round.

If this extra hashrate still doesn't compensate for lost time/hashrate at the end of the mining period, then bobsag3 and the DZ MC will be compensating you directly.
