A confirmation page has been added for manual NMC and BTC withdrawal requests.
thanks for doing that! Putting BTCG back in consideration for my low hash PPS mining

Anyone else getting ~50% "Other" non-accepted share on mine3? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Edit: Mine2 is working just fine BTW.

Anyone else getting ~50% "Other" non-accepted share on mine3? ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) Edit: Mine2 is working just fine BTW. I had a warning up for a few hours, guess I should put it back up. It looks like some miners threw a fit with the DNS change. mine2 and mine3 point to the exact same servers right now. A simple restart seemed to fix all issues for the miners that were affected. EDIT: One thing to note is that the new servers have one quirk that shouldn't affect an average user. The new servers direct you to a backend based on your source IP. This means if your IP changes a lot (TOR?), these new servers can cause havoc to your reject rates. "Other" means the share received by the server did not come from that server. If you are in a situation where your outgoing IP changes at random (not dynamic IP, more like a network where your outbound IP can bounce between 2 or more connections on any given packet), please send me a PM and I'll work on setting you up with a special connection.

Of course I'd find a way to screw up something that should be transparent. It's just strange that some miners are affected and some aren't. I'm not using TOR or anything.

I'm still trying to figure out exactly why some miners are freaking out and others are not. It almost seems like they're keeping the old DNS entries (that go directly to a backend) and adding the round robin on top of it, so some shares go back to old IPs that they shouldn't.

I for one would like to be the first to blame the Windoze IP stack. Maybe cgminer could add a server validation thingy that activates after a reject threshold is reached, but this is so rare it's probably not worth it. The crazyiness is cycling through now. Only a couple of miners still derping half rejects.

I got 2900 rejected shares in last 2 days, until I restarted the miner. At the moment I'm using cgminer 2.4.3 on win7 64bit with DNS Client service enabled. This is the 2nd time I met this situation. I need to point out that I'm using an internal DNS server (CentOS 5.7, Bind 9.3.6-16.P1) which is configured as both caching and intranet master.

The big question remains unanswered: Did the abnormally high rejects stop after restarting your miner?

The first time I met this situation it can't just simply restart cgminer. I had restarted the miner for 3 times but it still showed lots of rejected shares. So I turned the miner off, started it after about 2 hours then it became normal.
The second time I just simply restart the miner and it's ok then.

I'm assuming you were mining on the DE server. Last night there were some connection problems between the Germany server and the database server. No shares were lost, it just had a period of about 14 minutes where the shares weren't being posted. After that time, the shares for the past 14 minutes were all dumped to Chicago, which is why your speed estimates suddenly shot up significantly higher than what they really were.

Some updates to worker speed calculations, hall of fame calculations, and graphing were made. Unfortunately the changes to worker speed calculations made the previously recorded data unusable, requiring a reset on all worker performance graphs.
In lighter news, the new setup for servers is working extremely well. Those users who have been granted access to the private server DNS entries are encouraged to update their miners. The goal of these recent changes is trying to create a special defense layer to allow dedicated BTC Guild miners the ability to keep running if the servers are targetted by a DDoS. Obviously I can't know it will work until one happens, but the outlook is very good.
EDIT: The worker speeds reported on the My Account and API are currently overstated significantly. The numbers will correct themselves over the next hour.

It hasn't been over a day, it's been about 12 hours ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) . The 24 hour earnings stat will be unavailable until later tonight (~10 PM PDT). Since the 24 hour earnings stat is based on your actual share submissions in the last 24 hours, and last night I had to reset the table which marks your shares each hour, the stat is currently missing a full 24 hour period.

While a few pools do this, I'm not comfortable with it. There is no namecoin exchange that offers an API to execute trades, so all I can do is poll the last prices whenever somebody wants to do an exchange, then pray that rate doesn't change to much by the time I sell them. It could cost me money to do that with how many people mine at BTC Guild if the price swings too much between selling batches of NMC. It may not happen *as* much these days, but that market can get very volatile when somebody decides to screw around with it.
