I should be mining at a rate of 1.8BTC a day

Wow your rig is very powerful. What is your hashrate?

Kinda varies depending on how many machines I have turned on. But I'm averaging at approx 34mhps 34Ghps.

Hmm, so strange. My rig can be peaked at 1300 MH/s and it can bring up 0.06 - 0.07 BTC per day.

34mhps is very weak. I don't think it can bring you 1 BTC per month, not mentioning 1 BTC per day. Am I missing something here?

[klotzenhotz]

maybe he meant 34Ghps. That would fit.

[martynw2000]

Ghps.. correct. It's been a long night! lol

[digicoin]

34Ghps? It looks like you host your own mini data center to mine BTC   I can get that hashrate if I have at least 15 PCs equipped with 4 VGA card 7xxx

Actually, I've been recording my balance over the past 3 hours, and I'm currently mining about 30% quicker than I should be. So I think it's possible the system didn't record shares for some time during the night, and now it's catching up with itself.

I should be mining at a rate of 1.8BTC a day, and over the past 3 hours I've got about 0.3BTC, which roughly translates to almost 2.5BTC per day.

Weird.

Oh man, people are still making over 1btc a day? Id ask what sort of rigs your throwing at it but I don't want to get depressed lol.

I can't get even up to 0.1 in total and I've tried for ages. Even hassling the faucets and online things that take ages to do but seem to sprinkle faery dust on things.. ie; i've stopped them now as they're just not worth it.

Maybe if I kept at it, but it really is a hell of a slow process to get even close to something. I assumed people making coins in full were getting multiples.. and everyone else, like me, 0.00000x a day.

even with a 5850 lol. oh well.. back to fc.

Did the "getwork" interface changed?  The pool is no longer sending X-Roll-NTime extension...

That make my custom miner ask Getwork every 6 seconds, that's how fast each mining node pass through all nonce.  Well, the pool seem to accept rolled timestamp anyway, so I overwrite the miner to force roll timestamp, so it request only once every minute.  But the pool used to return X-Roll-NTime extention.

I also see that it uselessly compute midstate although I provide "X-Mining-Extensions: midstate" (Which mean, don't return obsolete midstate and hash1).  Did it do that before, I don't remember.

P.S. Yes, I know, I should switch to stratum... someday...  but that mean more coding for something that is presently working fine as it is now!

All this talk of gigahashes makes me want to cry with my <200mh/s...

[ehoffman]

All this talk of gigahashes makes me want to cry with my <200mh/s...

I know what you mean...  I had 2.2GH/s, upgraded to 3.54GH/s, and still feel like I'm at the low end!  Even though I should see myself in the midrange.  I'm FPGA mining, under a Kilo-Watt, and making "only" .2BTC per day and a girlfriend tired of excessive heat in my computer room!  Can't wait for my BFL... if it can arrive before we melt down here!

I think I make .02 a day...quit your crying fool lol. In all honesty I try to treat this as more of a hobby than an investment because I find the concept so intriguing.

Yesterday DDos ruined  one of our servers and stats gone down. At the moment everything should work fine, all shares were recalculated and paid.

ehoffman, Thanks for reporting! Looks like we've lost rollntime header with last pool-server update.

[digicoin]

Due to DDOS attack, 50BTC is quite unstable at the moment. Too many rejected shares. /me quits

[shep80]

Pool started rejecting 100% of my shares around 8:52 PM ET  Many shares lost until I switched pools.

[yochdog]

clearly we have issues......any word on a fix?

Pool started rejecting 100% of my shares around 8:52 PM ET  Many shares lost until I switched pools.

I woke up to find 4 of my miners were effectively down for 5hrs during the night. Not down in that they weren't working, but the pool wasn't accepting their shares. The others (in identical machines) submitted shares fine. This seems very random, what's going on??

I'm mining with 50BTC because the PPS price is marginally better than most other PPS pools, but if I'm going to randomly lose shares unless I babysit everything, I may have to move somewhere else to get a bit more reliability.

Me too, switching to another pool, just in case to avoid next mtred/ozcoin adventure.
