I see they added basically unlimited USB Erupter "coupons" on the store. I noticed that the shipped price for the coupon units is a whopping .01 btc less than the regular price units. LOL
I guess a .01 saved is a .01 earned...
The shipping price on coupons is for the entire order, not per unit. So yes, if you only use 1 coupon, it's only saving 0.01 BTC. But each unit ordered after that doesn't add to shipping cost. Cool, thats good to know. |

Don't forget the units shipping currently are either Silver or Blue. Both elusive colors not previously offered by BTC Guild  . Gotta catch 'em all! aaaahhhhh!!!!! Not Fair!!!! Let me know if ya have Blue! That's the hook - if you order 10, you'll probably get at least one blue one...... Nah. If you order 10, you get a box of the same color. Which is nice if you're color coordinating a 10 port hub. Hehe. How about adding a "Preferred Color" entry on the order form? |

What's the "Other" rejected shares about? I understand stale and duplicate, but other? I'm getting wicked high amounts of rejected shares from other, but I don't know why...other pools love my shares, but not BTC Guild...why God WHY?!?!?

I've never seen my "other" count at anything other than 0. What mining software are you using?

That's really strange - there are lots of us out here running cgminer 3.1.1 and BEs. No indication of any problem in cgminer? Is there sufficient power available at your hub? Does the problem go away if you run, say, just 6 or just 4 of them at a time instead of 8?

eleuthria, why during the shifts in last several days, I get 20% lower submitted shares in PPLNS stats, but the chart showed almost constant hash rate?
If the pool speed is higher, you will have fewer shares per shift (shifts are based on total shares submitted to the pool, not a specific time limit). The N value generally increases when shifts get too fast, so once in a while you'll notice you start submitting far more shares per shift, and then it will likely slowly decrease as the pool continues to grow. Yes, I noticed that my submitted share used to shrink slowly when the pool hash rate was constantly growing, but there was a sudden rise by 20% between two shifts: 2013-09-15 02:30:22 AM and 2013-09-15 03:16:41 AM, and the submitted share are 20% higher since then, is this a result of difficulty adjustment? |

Yes, the N value was increased when the difficulty went up, in order to keep shifts roughly equal to 2x difficulty. The pool speed is high enough to keep that N value under 1 hour per shift. I try to keep the 'N' set so that a shift is always more than 30 minutes, less than 1 hour, and if possible, keep 'N' very close to 2x difficulty, in order to keep per-shift variance low. While this doesn't really affect miners earnings over a 24 hour period, it helps the psychological effect. People see a shift end with a very low payout and freak out, even if the flip side is a shift could end just as far in the other direction. By using very large shift values (which is possible due to how large BTC Guild is), it helps keep the earnings per shift closer to expectations. |

I've lost track and am confused, did he say he has silver and blue erupters on hand or coming in? I don't want to order before he has them and end up with black or red ones.  |

It seems to have stopped...now the rejects have stopped accruing... Sorry this seemed to get missed in terms of a reply. Other currently refers to one of two types of reject: 1) Lowdifficulty - Your miner was submitting work at a difficulty that was lower than what the pool told you to mine at. 2) Unknown work - Your miner was submitting work that didn't correspond to work that was sent to you from the pool. Unknown work is sometimes related to a bug in cgminer (which I believe has been fixed) where the extranonce field would not have proper padding or would be sending non-hex characters. Lowdifficulty should only happen briefly (if at all) when your difficulty is increased by the pool. There was a bug in the Stratum Proxy from slush that was causing lowdifficulty errors to happen frequently, but I added a workaround on the pool to prevent that. |

Just a friendly reminder: Do not use the same username/password combination between sites, and especially don't reuse the same password on your email address. BTC Guild along with many other Bitcoin related services are always being targeted for account breakins. In the last month, BTC Guild has placed IP bans on over 2 million different legit IPs (not forged) that have been used for trying to scan accounts for reused passwords from various leaked databases from other sources.
Additionally, you can be sure your balance is always safe by enabling the wallet lock feature. This is permanent and can only be removed by signing a message using the private key of that wallet to prove you own it (meaning it shouldn't be used unless you are running your own bitcoin wallet locally). No amount of begging and "other proof" of account ownership can be used to override a wallet lock, making it the strongest protection you can possibly enable for your pool balance.

Beware of implying something that is indeed incorrect ...
The unlock is of course either an interface in a system that you wrote that can of course be bypassed ... or a button that you click on when you believe a pool member has provided your required amount of proof.
It is indeed NOT true to say "can only be removed by signing a message"
It would be true to say that you "eleuthria" will bypass the rule when someone signs such a message.
