New Ixcoin fork -> I0coin

[tacotime]

if you look at the blocklist ioguild is reported my shares as 0... wtf? these can't all be stale

[tacotime]

how long until difficulty 1000

[Seraphim401]

My client is still not connecting. I added rpcport=8332 to conf file and added my ip rpcallowip and the client is still not connecting.

A bit of a disaster but I think this is a lesson that needed to be learned.

It is a good experiment and fun to watch it unfold.  Part of the question about having a target block generation period of less than 10 min is a bad idea was the amount of forking that would take place. With such low difficulties, the effect is probably multiplied and would serve as data for anybody else planning to change the target interval.

So much for a block every 5 minutes.

Interesting - the infrastructure can't handle a wide public announcement until the difficulty is high enough to prevent all the blockchain forking.

Solution is to set the starting difficulty high enough to prevent early adopters from making easy fortunes, but low enough to not be a barrier to entry.

I wonder what the magic number is.

[tacotime]

well, I guess at least no one is getting the blocks right now

What's this about people getting k-lined from freenode? How can mining *coins have anything to do with an IRC network?

[Spacy]

Why doesn't the I0 Guild blockchain get overwritten by the blockchain with already 3600 blocks? Or are they delaying stats?

The original bitcoin client code uses the freenode network to find peers to connect to so...

[RandyFolds]

Wouldn't merely allowing difficulty increases greater than 4x fix the forking problem in a single difficulty increase?

[peterpiper]

I think they might be delaying stats, I just transferred coins from guild to my client and it worked fine....

This shit needs to stop, my miners are going somewhat idle and not generating enough heat so my room is getting cold 

[fx1Trader]

99.33 % stales ..

[jackjack]

I have 1Ghps and BTCguild only sees 40Mhps wtf??

[phelix]

that's it with the name: 0 valid shares, 0 coins

Either I'm doing something colossally stupid, or something is wrong. I created an i0coin.conf in User->Appdate->Roaming->I0coin and has the lines rpcport=7332 in it. Still does not connect. Is there anything else to add to the conf file that I'm missing?

If you are using the CLI, can you show me what "getinfo" says? what block count are you up to on your client? Or if you're using the windows GUI, it should say at the bottom. Are you seeing any confirmations yet?

(trying to figure out if there's actually a fork or not)

If you want to laugh, take a look at the block explorer:

The # blocks shown by I0guild is the number of blocks they found. Not total number of blocks.
So #2392 doesn't mean it's block #2392. It just mean it's the 2392th block I0guild found.
