[ANN][HUC] Huntercoin - Worlds First Decentralized Game/World on the Blockchain

[amarian12]

I try the Linux daemon and crash, I try to have it on windows also and the pool on Linux.

the Linux one crash, I am not able to use it. the windows one run in no responding mode for seconds, then works again for some time, both systems I test have more then 16gb ram, dual 6 cores xeons, sas 15k rpm so the problem is in the code.

if I make time, I will try to debug it.

Definitely there is a problem with the linux wallet.

Qt freezes on any disk operation.  This is clear when you run it with the Qt debugger.

Are the disk operation threads all blocking threads?  Are they blocking Qt?

Or is it that there are so many players (20 000?) that the chain cannot be updated in the time between blocks, which is about 1 minute?

I do see app.processEvents() here and there, but is it in the critical (disk) loops?

Qt is the main loop, and should not be waiting for the threads.  Is that the mistake in the code?

Heavy disk activity is a known issue with Namecoin, which is the basis of Huntercoin:

Perhaps one could just restore the Namecoin files like net.cpp and net.h to the original Bitcoin formats?

Game is so different now. Some players have 40-50 teams and stay in a spot. Difficult to find coins now
I remember the first day, I get around 1000 coins and was enough stupid to sell for 0.2 btc the 1000 looool.

Those players ARE coins

what about a wallet without the game ?
Exchanges and pool don't need to have the game in it, so why not just providing a simple wallet version.

I also do have a couple of HUC left which I can't sell just because I am 12 days back and I don't want to ruin my SSD and wait for it to sync.

Can the game actually break your hard drive?

It works them hard. SSDs it will eventually. Not in 12 days sync though lol

There are 8,760 hours in a year. SSDs have an MTBF in the millions of hours. So, no. It's not going to wreck your SSD.

check your facts it is not a number of hours but a number of write cycles which depednign on your average usage gives you an amount of hours.
IE: the more you write , the shorter is your ssd lifetime.
Considering an average usage it amount to about 4 years which is fine considering you will change anyway, but use it hard and get it wrecked.

Writes are incorporated into MTBF. e.g.

http://www.hardcoreware.net/mtbf-ssd-what-does-it-mean-for-you/

Another thing to consider is what workload is used to specify the MTBF. For instance, Intel qualifies their SSDs using a workload of 20 GB of writes per day for 5 years. With this workload, along with the supplemental failure tests, the Intel 335 has an MTBF of 1.2 million hours. However if the workload was reduced to 10 GB a day, the MTBF would be 2.5 million hours. At 5 GB per day, it becomes 4 million hours.

But yeah... eventually they will give out, and faster the harder they are worked. But considering how large those numbers are, it's not really a big worry. You have to abuse your SSD pretty seriously to get it to fail within a few years.

the answer here is ramdisk
use -datadir to specify a path to your ramdisk, sync then copy back to hard disk

huntercoind is the wallet without the game.

Unless he never sleeps he's going to lose those. He's got to leave them at some point and when he does...boom ...they become coins

[ScroogeD]

This seems to be one of the most unique coins.

Can I have a try to buy in plz?

Rumor is Cryptsy is coming soon.
