Thank you for your hard work ^^

How are new drives paid for? Donations? Or are you out of pocket?

Donations have, unfortunately, totaled very little lately. Automatic donations, as of right now, come out to under 0.04% of total miner earnings... which comes out to about 0.08 BTC in auto-donations over the last 90 days.  Thanks to those who have donated! Pretty much all monetary costs associated with Eligius have come out of pocket lately.  Fortunately I have some good arrangements for hosting thanks to some professional connections, but it still costs an appreciable amount to maintain and host everything.  Eligius has never been about making money for the pool operator. At this point, I basically consider it my own donation to the community.

I'm wayyyy behind on getting Eligius-Hu done and online, which is essentially the next generation of Eligius with everything overhauled.  My normal work has been taking quite a bit of my time, so my Eligius time has been limited.  The issue there is that there is still time required for general maintenance on the pool as it sits, and then time needed for dev on the revisions.  So, when I only have a small slice of time to work on things a lot of it ends up going to maintenance needed for the current pool and not a lot to the development of the revisions.  I'm still working on juggling some things around to make more time for Eligius dev work, and I've not yet been as successful in that regard as I would like to be.  Every time it looks like I'll have a good chunk of time to work on things, something else comes up that demands my time.  My next target window for significant Eligius work time is within the next week, so, hoping to finalize a lot of things soon.

is there a problem with the stats my miner is reporting shares at the pool but nothing appears at pool.

[wizkid057]

Hmm... nope.  Everything looks OK on this end.  Username typo?  Using an address that's not version zero (starts with 1)?

(Late night coding session)

nope username being the same since late 2013, I will investigate further, thanks code on
Edit: write user name wrong pool aka brain fart

[wizkid057]

Fixed an error in my new code with the stats database that was preventing it from showing our latest block (436586).  Reward system properly counted it and all, so no worries. The stats just incorrectly marked it as a stale block due to, admittedly, a small typo on my part in some new code that handles blocks for the stats.

Sorry about that.  And thanks to the miner who noticed and pointed this out!

Hi wizkid,

could you tell me if there's a problem with my payout as it's been at 'take at least another a few seconds at current network difficulty' for few weeks.
Is this normal? and could it be paid out.

my mining address is http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/1Merv5Kb8GfXn1jW1c5LVULakTMdLedtR2

My apologies if you've already posted info about this.

Thanks.

Hmm... looks like for some reason the core database didn't accept your latest signed options, so it's still looking at an older higher minimum payout setting.

I'll correct this and make sure you're in the next payout.

No rush on the overhaul. If we wanted a different kind of mining pool we would mine at a different pool.

[sorry2xs]

the larger number is the amount that any miner on there pool must achieve to enter the payout queue the estimated total  is is the amount of shares that you will get if the pool was to find a block right now, over time this amount will accumulate until  the pool finds blocks and you reach the minimum payout threshold.

Oh, so that's not something that is happening to everyone?  Could you check and see if mine has the same issue?  I've changed my minimum payout a couple times and I always seem to get the same message for an extended period of time....  I actually reduced my payout amount again because I was hoping it would actually get me into the payout queue but I always seem to still sit with that message for a long while..... I was never overly concerned about it because I always do get payed but thought it was odd.  My stats page is http://eligius.st/~wizkid057/newstats/userstats.php/17cGThFYDLMnG4yHcZZm2yy81c6iToCJU3

The minimum payout for this pool is still .05?  That will take an Antminer S3 about three months to reach.

Did wizkid's correction take care of this for you?  Mine has been saying the "take at least another few seconds" message for over a week now and has been doing the same when I hit my payout amount for many months.  I do always seem to get added to a payout eventually but having clean stats is nice

[wizkid057]

Well, the current stats are being retired once I get my overhaul done.  The new stats setup should be cleaner on the backend.  I'm hoping to quickly eliminate oddities like the "a few seconds" things.

If anyone is having an issue with a custom minimum payout in the meantime, please open a ticket.

[sorry2xs]

is there any hope of a manual payout
