I am curious are there any guides on setting up scrypt mining without using pools on rented GPU servers?

Once a transaction has 6 confirmations, it is extremely unlikely that an attacker without at least 50% of the network's computation power would be able to reverse it.

Yes, pools really don't make sense if you're investing in some crypto in its early days.

then, just match your config with cgminer string(desktop shortcut)
config
rpcuser= what you want rpcpassword=what you want rpcallowip=127.0.0.1 rpcport= coin port(search in the official thread) server=1
save and reload the client of your coin
cgminer string
-o 127.0.0.1:rpcport -u rpcuser -p rpcpassword and your vga config (example for 7950 -g2 --thread-concurrency 8192 -I 13)
that's it

Ah thanks, I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to actual mining, makes me curious how (un)effecient is -gen in comparison to cgminer?

don't bother, because the default qt miner use the cpu, unless you want to mine a cpu coin..

Didn't Satoshi mine like tens of millions worth of BTC using the -gen option?
