[DEAD] DeepBit.net PPS+Prop,instant payouts, we pay for INVALID BLOCKS too

[Veldy]

Yes, correct.  But remember that multiple pools and solo miners are all working on the same block trying to be first.  When a win is reported, others quit working on that block [further work on that block results in stale shares].  So, one "round" in a pool is the time from the solution of one block to the solution of the next block and the round is worth 50BTC total to the pool divided according to their agreement with the miners.  A "round" may span work over many many blocks before a solution is found and the 50BTC awarded.

Clear as mud?

actually, very clear ty, have a half bit on me

[Veldy]

Got it ... Thank you much.

Hi [Tycho] I had set in "Minimum value for automatic payment" 50, why did sent me a payment of 20 right now? I haven't used instant payout.

There were no payments of 20 BTC in last autopayout. PM me your login name so i can check.

Done.

Hi Tycho just to check does a total shares (bold) under statistics mean anything?

[zoro]

it means you have found a block! well done

[[Tycho]]

UPDATE:

• Pool interface is partially translated to russian language, you can enable this option in your advanced settings.

Yes, it's block found by you :)

Thanks for help :)

Wow thanks. I was having super bad luck for a week + on my solo mine and I just started full mining on the pool and I strike a block. Thanks!
Though I am feeling abit =~

Similar thing happened to me.  With my NVidia 570GTX (~133MH/s at the time), I found two blocks in a short period of time on deepbit.  I have updated to a Radeon 6970 and haven't found one yet [in any pool] and it runs about 366MH/s currently.

BTW, if you go to your account and hit the advanced settings button, down under the BBCode textbox is a line that says how many blocks you have found historically.  Just a little tip.

Tycho - if you read this, I think that could be located a little more prominently in a better location if you get around to doing it.  Just a suggestion.  Thanks.

Seconding what Veldy said.  I'd love to see the Found Blocks actually associated with the workers similar to how slush shows it.  That way when I have to take my anger out on a rig I know which one has been slacking!

And any chance of being able to rename workers soon?

[TheShoura]

I would like to be able to rename workers too

I have a question though, do I put all my machines on the same worker, is this a bad thing? I'm rather curious if I should split them up...

does it matter? Or is it just a preference for you guys to keep track of each rig?

Hey thanks for the tip! I dint notice that!

If you don't use the long polling, you can put unlimited number of miners on the same worker credentials. If your client supports long polling then I would recommend creating new worker account for each 10 miners (there is a trigger that suspects LP malfunction if you use more than 20 LP clients on one worker, but if you really need more - I can disable it by request).

Is there any explanation why i never go below 700 in my mining client, but frequently recently go too 500 mhash/s in the stats?

[Veldy]

I have noticed a lot of communication failures to the pool.  I see the hash rate drop suddenly [and my fan quiet down and a second later everything is back to normal.

I didn't have this problem using Slush or BTCMine, but there are reasons that I am using deepbit right now.

Tycho ... do you know what is going on?  BTW ... I have been using Google DNS for months (I figure nothing on the Internet is truly private these days, so at least the blame can all fall on one company ).

It just happened again less than a couple of minutes later ... note the overlap here for context.

If you are using proportional mode - look at your history column for more realistic speed guesstimation.
Also you may be using phoenix miner, many users reported that it's internal hashrate meter may show higher values.

What miner do you use ?

[Veldy]

GUIMiner v2011-04-26

Passing -v -w 128 -f 40 for my Radeon 6970.

Looking over the last 24 hours, this has happened several times.  VPN is stable, Netflix doesn't hiccup, connections elsewhere are very stable.  This appears to be outside of Comcast ... can't say whether it is your servers or network unless I can run diagnostics on it when it happens and if the "mini outage" is long enough to do so.

[Bitcoineruk]

Thanks for the reply, im using the new windows GUI interface with a 6990, usage never drops through afterburner and hash rate (according to clint never wavers too much at all) is this a client problem? do I need to ask nicely for them to fix it? (Im doing Pay per share - which is why it matters)
