Depends if pirate used the 500 000 bitcoins to develop an ASIC chip in secret

Hi,

So i guess when I buy e.g. 2,000,000 shares, it will connect to the pool I wish and based on their share rules, my payout will change. Now dumb question:

1) How long does it take to use up 2,000,000 shares?
2) Current price per share is [edited out] but lets use an example price of 0.00001, how profitable will it be for me?

Thanks, even though the buyers page is very simple, I find it difficult to understand the most important parts, how much is the ROI, per share purchased.

Thanks

I purchased 60K shares 2 days ago and it says that I have used 269 shares total and it says paused.

Is there a way I can unpause it? 

What am I missing.  If I could buy shares and then use those shares whenever I want I would be buying a lot more.

Also an API would be nice so I can automate the process of buying and using the shares at a specific time.

Just got my invite in the last round of invites that happened in the last couple days.  Got all signed up and setup right away and started testing things out.

I mine through slush, and put about half my hashing power into GPUMAX.  When I was doing public work, which was only a couple hours a day, my average per block at slush was about .045 btc.  And when there was no public work, I was averaging around .075, which seemed a little low.  Before I moved half my power over to GPUMAX, i was averaging around .095 /round. 

So I decided to move everything back to slush just to see what would happen, and immediately my returns went from .075/block back up to .095/block.

I know that slush wasn't supported for purchasing shares because of the high stale ratio, but according to my account my stale/reject rate is only 3%, and I don't think that's enough to account for the change.

Anyone else notice things like this?
Any ideas on how to resolve, without changing pools?

Alright, I give up. Just spent an hour trying to figure out how to work gpumax. I got the invite, but don't understand how to set it up. Is there some sort of how to guide out there? I assume it's so easy to setup that I'm just overlooking it. Or perhaps I don't understand the concept.

I have a couple of mining rigs here at home that I'm mining with EMC (Eclipse). I assume I somehow redirect my miners to gpumax, and gpumax directs my miners to EMC. Then if someone wants to buy my shares on gpumax, gpumax auto sells my shares to the buyer. How do I hook my miners up with gpumax? Is there a certain port, username, or password that I should be using? And what are the Mining Pools and Workers options for?

I am completely lost...

mining pool is where you put your EMC info in. Workers is where you setup a worker with your EMC pool info as your private pool. Once setup you will have a Username generated and a password for gpumax along with server info. Point your miner at that and bam you are using gpumax. PPS price is up to you.

[digital]

You have to setup a pool first.  And you use the url your miner is normally pointing at for the pool url.  And you use the username and password of one or your normal miners for the pool username and password.

then you create miners in gpumax that connect to your pool, and as stated in the post above, there is a username and password generated that you will need to redirect your miners at home to.

took me an hour or so plus a lot of reading to figure it out. Definitely lacking in documentation...

And this is the problem of or lack thereof community.   Yes you should care.   Why you ask?  Because the person who knows someone who did something bad and still chooses to support them in a way could potential exhibit the same type of behavior.   Your reputation is important and saying you don't even care and don't know why is a statement that can be very telling.   Also empathy is a human trait.

I don't see how GPUMax can really be that heavily related to BS&T. Even if it is, I was one of the most vocal people in warning others about putting their money into a black box. If they went ahead and threw their money away that's their own idiocy.

The most I'm ever risking on GPUMax is a few days mining revenue, if it shut down tomorrow and I didn't get paid, I'd lose a total of maybe a few hours of my regular salary...

It makes it easier to find in the dark.

I stopped mining on gpumax when I noticed my returns from private work were down about 15%.  I tested it several times, and determined that even though my hash power shows up correct in my account (when working on private work) the returns Im getting are actually about 15% less than what I would make when not using GPUMAX.

And the public work was not making up for the difference.

I'll likely come back and test it occasionally, but for now Im just watching what happens with everything (pirateat40, bst&t, gpumax)...

People here should fully expect this service to disappear one night with remaining payouts to never take place in my mind.
With the OP missing in action what has been said to the users which would make them think differently? Who is supporting
this service and answering questions?

have fun.

From what I have seen, it is mostly done via IRC #gpumax

That is because if the OP came back to this forum people would have some serious questions for him.
OP has not been active in that channel for 5+ days.

I am a miner and I would never consider this service.

[digital]

I don't use irc, so from my standpoint, there is no support whatsoever.

No faq's, no how-to, no docs.

And the first thing that made me a little nervous (when pirateat40 was still posting on this forum) was when people would ask what GPUMAX was actually for.  What purpose did it serve?  And pirateat40 would just come on and say something like "if you can't figure it out, don't use it".
