Eligius: 0% Fee BTC, 105% PPS NMC, No registration, CPPSRB

[sorry2xs]

Site is down for over 1 hour, here in Turkey. Why this has been happening very common lately? Is this any kind of hacking attempt or just a web server issue?

It's top secret no info being provide by owners???

I'll bet hes being hit with a DDoS attack i just got a email from Bitcoin Affiliate dated for to day they just got one of those lame ass extortion letters .

what are those ass holes thinking the pools will simply give in .

all it does is make thing worse for them when they get caught and they will. sigh ....

I can still mine on Eligius just can't see a thing of how much etc i trust the pool owner so why don't they just give up .

[wizard]

It seems that only stats are affected, mining still goes without switching to backup pools.

[bigbitmine]

Probably this DD4BC idiot again.  He's also hit Nicehash and Ghash.  However, in those attacks he didn't take out the sites, he took out the stratum servers.

We could see all the stats etc but could not mine.

[bigbitmine]

AND........  it's back.

[toptekk]

AND........  it's back.

it's up but stats are still stuck the sad part most the main BTC pools are either having major DDoS attacks or working like here ,seems the alt coin sites seem untouched atm  



actually no they are working again just added more hash stats are starting to go up .

P2pool is fully operational. Sorry Eligius is taking flack, it's a good pool.

BTW

I love how often the pool pays out now.  Been getting about 2 payouts a day. Very cool.

Whatever default is.

I have a question. If faster payouts were possible, then why we were waiting about a week for each payout before?

[Luke-Jr]

Backlog. No funds are ever kept online.
The pool just coordinates miners to pay each other in normal operation.
When the pool can't find someone for miners to pay, it sends the remaining funds to an offline wallet.
When the pool has too many miners to pay, multiple people need to be available to pay the difference from that offline wallet.
This security process is why Eligius has never lost any bitcoins to date, despite being the 3rd oldest pool.

i use this site because of the payout and nothing has yet to be lost here .

I have a question about the payout queue.  I thought I understood it, but clearly I missed something along the way.

I have one address that I mine to with approximately 8 TH/s.  I usually get paid every few days.  Right now I'm #254 in the queue.

Recently I decided to rent a very large amount of hashpower from westhash, since prices are < the cost to mine.  I let it run full blast, as much as it can pour into Eligius, all pointed at a new address I never used before.  Minimum hash rate is about 500 TH/s, I think peaking at 750 TH/s every so often.  At that speed, my little order goes very fast, in a few hours or less.

Much to my surprise, later in the day I get paid from Eligius for the bulk of my earnings on that new address.  Yes, you read that right, in less than 12 hours I got paid for new work that I submitted on an account that had an outstanding balance of zero (remember, the address was brand new, never used before).  I did not get paid in 1 lump sum, it was 2 payments that brought to 100% shares paid. (In case you are curious, despite paying at 5% less than I'd make at 100% luck, with a 2% fee, I didn't quite get back all my investment, despite 100% of the shares being paid.)  

Meanwhile my 8 TH/s is still sitting in queue despite being a few days old.

A week or so later, I did it again when Westhash prices dipped a little bit lower still.  This time I kept the same payout address, which was at 0 with 100% shares paid (according to MyEligius).   Really high hash rate - 500 to 700 TH/s - for a few hours.  Within 12 hours I got paid for 100% of shares, in two payments.  And my 8 TH/s address, which last paid me about 2 days ago, is still sitting in queue.

So, if the payout queue is based on the age of entering the queue, why, two times in a row, did my super fast and super short work get paid well ahead of my slow but steady work?

EDIT #2: The first time around, it wasn't 100% of shares in two payments because of horrible luck.  However, the first payment did happen extremely quickly.

mdude77 don't feel like you're alone in this mess???

[sorry2xs]

i have never been paid 100% of my shares the last several months mining here, my experience has always been that i will spend 3-5 blocks in after one block and another 2-3 blocks in after our next block delay

[jcumins]

I have been mining here off and on for about 10 months.  I have never been paid better then 97%.  It seems to me that this is a way to get a 3% bounty for the ability to mine here.  Also another thing that really irritates  me is the pay out queue.  The pool immediately when a block is found.  But the miners can wait days to get paid.  I could see a pay out once a day or after the 120 confirmations.  But not this variable pay out queue that one can sit in for days or weeks.

It just does not make since to me.  And is not really fair to the miners.

My slow but steady address is at 93%.

My super fast but short address is at 100%.

I'm waiting for Wizkid or Luke to chime in here to explain what's going on.
