What are the options about the payouts? Could you shortly explain possible solutions?
Due to the fact this coin doesn't have a market presence you would be hard strapped to find anyone to give you btc or anything for these coins as they currently don't have a market value. As a result, since it has no value you can't get a "payout"

Your chance to win!I wanted to remind everyone that in less than FIVE HOURS we will have our fourth drawing, this means we will be adding two more coins to our exchange! The good news is that you don't need to be at the top of the list for a chance to win, all you need is a minium of 100 votes (more is better, of course ) and you will be entered into the random drawing which will be streamed live.

Definitly good idea.
Rebranding ENC as Keccak's coin
The point is we're able make it hapeened. I guess we ought to do this. Obviously we can raise due to rebranding ENC(new members etc.), so in my opinion it's worth the effort.
Dev, challenge accpeted?

If we can hard fork, the algorithm swapped out and the blockchain maintained, that would be pretty cool. Let me look into it this weekend to see how doable it is.

Yes, challenge accepted.
After listening to the advice of the community and looking into it technically, it does appear possible to swap out the algorithm. We will be going with keccak.
This change will take some time and require a hard fork. Please stop your miners as there will be a hard fork at block 48750. This is subject to change and I will keep everyone posted. For now, please close your wallets as there will be a new version available at relaunch. As always, please be sure to backup your wallets. During this time the game will also be offline (no payouts) but still playable.
The tentative re-release of the coin will be next Saturday, 4/5/14 provided all goes well. I will post progress updates throughout the week.
While this change is being made, it would be great if you could contact pools, exchanges, and someone to host a blockchain explorer. This would be a great help as I'll be busy coding and testing. If you have any other input on this change, please contact me directly through PM.

All are normal, nothing special, except the name. Nice name. However, I wonder how many people can understand the word "entropy".

But maybe you should first think about the basics? I downloaded from github a few hours ago, but there is no way, that my wallet will sync (tried all nodes from this thread) ... For me, that is not important, I will just forget about EntropyCoin, but most of the people: 1. will not try, as much as I did 2. do not have the knowledge, what they can do There should be an easy and proven way to install a wallet (linux i win) with enough STABLE nodes. Just my thoughts...

miningcrew, thank you for the post. The nodes are currently down, as requested, as the algorithm is swapped out. This was part of the same post you mentioned. This is being done on purpose so we can upgrade to keccak.

@etcdev When you launch a coin be sure that you have all prepared: a nice essay: why people should mine your coin algo type wallet pool list block explorer exchange list bounty + bonuses A nice graphic for your thread will catch the attention. A nice logo of your coin will help x1000 times and make it memorable (Ex.: saw that black dragon from Black Dragon Coin ? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=520737.0 ) I don't mind to receive some tips, I need some beer to unleash my imagination

The good news is that I was able to swap out the algorithm. The bad news is that when you do so, the existing wallet database becomes unusable. So, this leaves us with a few options. 1. Leave everything the way it is. 2. Make the changes and relaunch the coin. This means we would need to come up with some way to handle existing payouts. 3. Launch it as a new and different coin.
What does everyone think?
In the meantime, everything is online as it was and you should be able to continue to mine and use the coin.

Option number two would be the best choice. But how to refund existing coins to the people?

etcdev, thank you to all hard work what you've made.
I've reconsidered our placement and finally option #2 would be most fair. For this one's who mined and supported earlier and for this one's who will do it first time during relaunch.
As rigthly QRV stated, the question is how we can fairly distribute mined coins and after that adopted them to relaunched one's.
If this made happened we could Just SET UP deadline until coins would be refunded as bording line. And at least - to establish D-day ( ENC relaunch time).
