Love the pool Terk! Sadly, I am off to fold some curecoin. Profits are good atm, it is for a great cause and I have been patiently waiting for several years for the project to go live! Keep up the good work. I may be back at some point!

Hi,
It seems like the website indicates to add this parameter double dash scrypt "-- scrypt" to the configuration. However, my miner web interface only allows me to add these fields: Pool Address, PoolID/User and password.
So how can I add the scrypt parameter ??
Thanks
What is your mining hardware?

Scrypt-Based Mining now is just generally dead. I don't see the point anymore, even if you have Mh/s, you're still losing a LOT with electricity costs.
Some people have access to really cheap or even free electricity. True, however my single card rig (303KH/s) uses 240W solid when mining. I have it on for 9 hours each day during the night since mining scrypt is so unprofitable ~ at least for me anyway. Its around £9 a month now that I'm doing this minus a couple pound due to my solar panels which are grid tied. Pick up an R9 270 yo! Coupled with a Sempron 145 you can have a low power single rig pushing 430+ Kh/s and fairly low temps...should be under 175w! Also GOLD rated PSU or better helps a bunch. I have it at 475kh/s, and it's using around 180w. It's a really good card, but instead, you really should get some gridseeds, since they use a lot less power than GPUs. I have another mining friend of mine who runs Nvidia 750 TI's. They pull 50w under load a piece and run at around 320kh/s. It is a loss as far as kh/s goes, but for the power difference (475kh/s = 180w or 320kh/s = 50w) it is actually a higher profit margin since you pay a lot less electricity. As well as being able to run as many cards as you can get PCI-E cables on 1 psu (he has 6 of them on 1 mobo and 1 1000w psu). Of course, that means you run Cudeminer instead of CGMiner which I have no experience with. Not to mention the cards are only $150 a piece vs the $300 for the 280x's and such. Just a thought for you electricity conscious people. The R9 270's can be had for around $170 new and around $100 used. If you pick up a quality brand you can even warranty RMA them if necessary. Currently my 3x R9 270's (2x MSI and 1x Sapphire) are pulling 550w (avg) and that's with a 7200rpm 2.5" hdd plus one "case" fan and pushing 1.23 Mh/s with sub 70 degree temps. An 80+ gold PSU and an SSD would improve my kWh:Mh/s ratio some.

Don't worry about scrypt, enter stratum+tcp://us.clevermining.com:3333 (or stratum+tcp://eu.clevermining.com:3333 if your miner is hosted in Europe) as the pool address, your BTC address as username, and x as password.

And if he is a complete noob and has an Antminer S1, Dragon Miner or anything of the sort?

Anybody facing issues with the stats on CM site? I see blanks on all the stats graphs... my miner's are going hash strong with successful submits from cgminer... Is this a transient site issue?

Did anyone ever find a way to get the API for an app or enable e-mail notifications?

What the heck are you talking about? The API hasn't been released yet, and email notifications haven't been either.

This is the post I was talking about: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=448649.msg6362181#msg6362181. Maybe I described it wrong but I thought some people were working on a monitor for Clever.

Yes, and this project was likely abandoned.

byt - do you see the stats graphs? I am only seeing the hashrate speedmeter but none of the charts...

Mining works fine and shares are also reflecting (via the expected...) so hopefully its a minor glitch...

I'm also mining fine. But the website appears to be down entirely for me. Occasionally some of the CSS loads, but that's it. Is there a possible DDos attack on the site? Either way, I'm submitting shares without problems.
On an unrelated note, does anybody know the reason for cleverminings recent drop in global hasrate ?

DDoS should be blocked by CloudFlare. The reason for hashrate dropping is just because there is a big whale that jumps between CleverMining and WafflePool.

I'm investigating problems with the website. Mining is not affected, website is on an entirely different server than mining pools.

Website problems are CloudFlare issues again. When I use real web server IP all pages are loading correctly and quickly and everything's fine on the server. This is also reason why my monitoring didn't alert me and it was byt411 who let me know (thanks!) - I am monitoring/alerting several things on the servers but am not monitoring wether website is accessible from outside and/or wether CloudFlare is having problems. Recent tweets from them confirm that they have issue in Europe and US: 20 min ago: https://twitter.com/CloudFlareSys/status/4684823123471892485 min ago: https://twitter.com/CloudFlareSys/status/468486508664483841All things said, mining is of course not affected.
