After 17 painfull hours we've solved first LTC block !

[coinotron]

It looks like I'm talking to myself.

Anyway, latest news:

1. We have solved 13 blocks.
2. On Monday or Tuesday pool will be moved to brand new dedicated server. Performance issues will be gone.
3. New autoworker is being implemented. It will allow to switch between CPU-friendly coins.

This morning (Oct 23) Coinotron was down for 6 hours.
We had some serious performance problems.
On 24 or 25 Oct we will move pool to new dedicated server.

This morning (Oct 23) Coinotron was down for 6 hours.
We had some serious performance problems. We would like to compensate you for this outage.
For 24 hours, instead of taking 2% fee, we will pay for each LTC and SC block additional 2%. 
On 24 or 25 Oct we will move pool to new dedicated server.

Dang, that downtime stinks.  It is nice that you're rewarding your miners for their time disconnected though.  Keep up the great work!

[coinotron]

Pool is now running on dedicated server. Almost all performance issues are gone.

We had some issues after moving to the new server. Most of them are solved now.

Payouts bug (affecting all SC pools) is very hard to pin point. Today I managed to gather some "good" logs, send them to RealSolid. Meanwhile we are performing payouts manually every 4-5 hours.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

[coinotron]

Today pool has reached 1 MH/s !

[coinotron]

Today = 1.45 MH/s !

Umm I have a suggestion.
Would it be possible to have a difficulty factor displayed in the LTC statistic table? Would be nice to see it there.

If you are mining using AMD: choose LTC - LTC/SC profitability = 1.33
If you are mining using Intel: choose SC  - LTC/SC profitability = 0.67

Profitability factors available on our website :
1. LTC/SC for AMD and Intel CPUs
2. SC/BTC for Nvidia and ATI

Today we have updated:
i0coin client to version v32508,
ixcoin client to version 0.3.24.3 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=54977.0

We are also starting tests of merged mining BTC/IXC/I0C.

Are you thinking nmc will be added after testing?  Or are you still of the opinion that nmc isn't worth it?

[coinotron]

We refreshed calculations of profitability factors available on our website.
- added i0c and ixc.
- LTC profitability is now based on new pooler's miner

Good call using pooler's miner for LTC.

However, for i0c and ixc, don't need profitability calculators if merged mining is implemented.  Any timing on that?  I know ixc needs about a week left before it can be done.

Do you think you'll add Devcoin to your pool?

[coinotron]

Regarding ixc, i0c merged mining - There is a lot of work to do in pool engine to implement that. I was planning to implement Vinced's proxy functionality directly in pool. And current i0c exchange rates are not very promising. I think I will put mm on hold for one week or two.

Devcoin - probably yes, but not until we see more trading activity.

Hey how do I set up my Litecoin client to point to the Coinotron LTC pool?  In the Litecoin client I put the following:

Server: coinotron.com
Port: 9332
Username: My username
Password: My password

Is there something I'm missing?
