[CLOSING DOWN] ScryptGuild Auto-Switching Pool

[Sir Alan]

Is it just me or the pool is down? I can't access the website.

It wasn't just you - it was down very briefly, just long enough to give me a server error on one attempt.

Works fine for me.

they never mine for more than 2minutes ata time, they keep "dropping" and restarting

Power supply issue?  Overheating?  Are they over-clocked?  What kind of miners, what software, and where are you seeing the zero hash rate reported?

Have you tried the Number One fix, i.e. shutting down and rebooting the pc?  I had an issue the other day, when my GPU refused to mine at more than 20KH/s while CGminer reported hash rates in PH/s (yes, really!) until I shut down completely for a few seconds and did a cold boot - a quick restart didn't do the biz - after which it went back to a more reasonable 170KH/s.

Eleuthria, today i made 0,00609739 BTC/MH/Day with Scrypt-N after mining Vertcoin and exchanging it to BTC thru Cryptsy... is it possible to get Scrypt-N auto-switch pool? its more profitable and ASIC Scrypt resistance

Was this per vert MH?  or compared to regular scrypt MH?  Because essentially vert 1/2's your regular rate, so if you made that in vert mh, thats only 0.003048695 / regular MH.  Unless I read it wrong, just trying to get what you meant.

The website != the pool.  The website is served through Cloudflare, which has regional outages for the HTTP traffic.  The mining traffic is not through Cloudflare (can't be), and only goes through the actual ScryptGuild server.

Planning on implementing 2FA? I for one love google's app.

is there a way to manually cash out my balance? Cause my balance is 0.008BTC and i wish to withdrawn instead of mining till it reach 0.01BTC?

What I did was simply set the auto-payout to something lower then my balance, had it auto-pay and then set the threshold back again. Not perfect, but I didn't have to wait so long for the payment to be sent.

Problem is, that you can't set lower auto-payout than 0.01BTC.

That would be a good choice 0,01 BTC when you are mining with only low power....
My beard will grow to the ground.... until I reach 0,01

ScryptGuild,

I notice that my Doge Auto payment has not processed. It had been working fine with the trigger amount set to 5000 coins. Now my balance is at 12000 and no payments have been sent since 3/26/14 at 09:00. Other coins are processing Ok just Doge not working.

Thanks

Don't forget that with Scrypt-N, miners only produces 40% in MH compared to standard scrypt, so the profit is half.
I have been mining VTC for a couple of weeks, and, for the moment, it is not worth it, unless exchange value increases.
I can mine at 700KH/Card in scrypt, but only 320KH/Card in scrypt-N

Had a small problem that hit yesterday and wasn't reported.  Basically ScryptGuild credits your account before the coins from the blocks are spendable (we don't wait for the block to mature, just wait until it has a few confirmations to avoid orphans).  We had a burst of blocks at one point that resulted in the pool not having enough *spendable* coins to pay out.  Normally this wouldn't be a problem, the next hour the auto payout would run again and catch up.  However, what ended up happening was the script that constantly loads coins onto Cryptsy ran after that failed automatic payout, sending most of our spendable coins to Cryptsy except for the minimum amount that it is set to keep local.  This wasn't enough to hit payouts, so the cycle kept repeating itself.

I've disabled the Cryptsy auto-refill script for today (the balances on Cryptsy should be enough to handle about a week worth of conversions at this point).  The DOGE payouts should get cleared up within a few hours.

The payout was processed. This afternoon.

Will you add Bitbar (BTB) to your pool? 1 BTB = 0.05361492 BTC good profit

 I mined on Scrypt Guild for over a week. I have coins including .25 Bitcoins and the wallets stays unconfirmed.  It never sends a email to confirm it. I can not change the email address so mining for over week with nothing to show .  Can anybody help?

I have been using the pool for a few hours and been watching it for some time. I have a few questions/ideas.

Are you planning on implementing a high scores like there is for btcguild?  I always liked that and being able to see the top hashers is fun and interesting.

I know your a pool and not an exchange, but any thoughts on adding a feature to sell coins if they hit a certain price?  I like the reserve option, but an option to maybe set a certain amount of each coin to keep in btc amount or by amount of time taken to mine (I realize these would constantly change, but a base number for all coins would be nice) since 100,000 doge is not the same as 100,000 ltc, an option to keep a roughly the same value of each for all coins would be nice.  Then an option to auto sell all of a coin if it hits a certain price.  I don't have time to monitor the prices of all coins and constantly check my crypts account, so if I could have a reserve on scryptguild, I can set an auto sell amount, and if it hits I am happy and my reserve starts to fill again?

I am sure that was kind of rambling, but I hope the point went across fine.

Thanks for listening,

I really want to be able to switch time zone.... :/ also better security...

Why can't you auto pay to an exchange and setup autosell rules there?

I know that is a possibility, but that is just one more site I have to monitor, and has my coins.  I would rather have it all on one site where I know the pool owner has integrity and is easy to monitor.  This was just an idea to separate scryptguild from other pools, thought it would be kind of neat.
