Nope. It's my only machine. I have a habit of giving my computers away when I upgrade. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I'm stalled at block 28146. Anyone else?
The machine that is stalled, are you mining on that computer and also mining on it from another computer at the same time?

Can any of you help me in understanding this?
I used to fold@home for cancer research until crypto-currencies came along, and I guess I saw an opportunity to make a bit of money for once. In a way I do feel a little guilty for giving up a good cause and i've always felt if the two could ever be combined it would be revolutionary. Does this coin offer that? If so, then surely is it not decentralised?
Hello, This coin rewards you based on the amount of processing you apply towards a program called BOINC. BOINC is a platform for volunteer grid computing which uses your spare processing cycles to advance scientific studies. It is very much like what you have been doing, except that when you use BOINC with Gridcoin you are eligible for increased GRC block rewards based on the amount of processing power being applied to the BOINC application. It is very much decentralized as no person/entity directly regulates/controls the funds flowing through the GRC network.

All mine have been working great the whole day thankfully. Is there a compiled list of working nodes? I can start one up if there isn't. As of 10:49 PM Bitcointalk time, I'm at block 28271 addnode=71.162.218.111

Looks like the database ate my post. Still having sync issues with the addnodes. Would solo mining fix this?
Also, would anyone care to guess the value of the coins? I wouldn't mind buying $25 worth from someone. Preferably from Canada since I can use an email bank transfer and the recipient would know it can't have a chargeback like paypal.

There's only been a few GRC trades that I am aware of: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=327827.0 - Offers of 0.001 to 0.002 BTC per 1,000 GRC https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=347908.0 - Apparent sales of 10,000 GRC per 1 BTC https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=349365.0 - Sale of 500 GRC for 50 mBTC

When you use poolmining=true you become part of the internal pool.

Oh wow, I totally misunderstood the use of "poolmining=" I thought that "poolmining=true" enabled other users to mine on your client using their own wallet addresses with a pooled payout similar to p2pool. Thanks for clearing that up for me!

I might still be off slightly, but if you use the listcpuminers you get to see other people in the internal pool. Usually there's just a few of them. From what I understand that's as close as we have to a third party pool so far ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) When you use poolmining=true you become part of the internal pool.

I *think* that it pools your CPU only, but that your video cards mining is still counted standalone. So you get a little boost by pooling. I may have misinterpreted it. When you use poolmining=true you become part of the internal pool. I was under the impression that this is designed for CPU only miners correct?

Im looking into this hang up issue; it just started after the recent two upgrades but the core code hasnt changed.
One hint is three of my machines work perfectly for over 30 hours now; but the one that keeps having issues has 500 test transactions over 3 chains; and its wallet keeps needing to be salvaged.
I finally sent my coins to my other machine and cleared the wallet and so far so good; feel free to try this if you continually have wallet problems.
Its not guranteed to work as Im not sure exactly what the issue is yet!
Regarding pool mining Alien, yes you can pool mine with that setting and it is for GPU only use; no cpu calculations at all. There is a thread Aysyr started on cryptocointalk with a lot of poolmining posts.
Thanks, Rob H.

All- The block explorer is finally synced up: http://explorer.gridcoin.usI moved it to prod, and increased the bandwidth and user limits so it should have a higher service level and it is connected to a seed node, so the block number should be accurate going forward. Rob H.

I just looked at my rig, and it said that I have "Found Block on pool 0" Pic related: http://sdrv.ms/1ffanahDoes this mean I have found a block? It's not showing up in my wallet.
