If Dooglus the Deceiver feels the need to call me a liar... I will come post regardless of how let go I am.  

I don't feel the need to call you names at all. I felt the need to respond to the false statement you made. There's a difference.

You can call me "Dooglus the Deceiver" if you like, but it would be more effective to actually point to anything I have said that was deceptive, rather than resorting to calling me names.

If you want to convey your 'Dooglus is a liar' message, or anything else, through reasoned argument - do so.

I didn't say Dooglus was a liar... other people wouldn't know that due to your censoring my post and quoting shit I didn't say.    

Dooglus is very careful about what he says... it's his acts that are deceptive... not his words (minus the Rat4 thing).  

If he said he didn't slowly leak his investment into JD slowly so it looked better... I would have then called him a liar.

Doog did say I was a liar though.  Which isn't entirely wrong... I said I bought into CLAM on my own research of studying his post.  This was a lie and Dooglus was deceptive by not correcting it, but he never lied about it.  I could name a number of other thing similar.  Such as why JD closed in the first place and blah blah blah.  

The world works better with propagandists sadly and I am what I am.

Telling people to 'suck your d*ck' isn't welcome here.  

Why the *?

You aren't my supervisor... in fact you're a nobody with a delete button.

Congrats!!!

I'll convey anything I fucking wish however I fucking wish you fucking peasant and you'll delete/censor whatever you fucking wish... "so be it" says the great Queen spider.

Before you say that lying and being deceptive are the same thing (maybe you'd even use some fancy Latin words yay ) I think of it like this:

Lie: "I didn't shit my pants"  When in fact I did shit my pants.

Deception: I don't tell anyone I shit my pants, but I keep my distance so people never know I shit my pants.

Lie: "I have a full house"  When in fact I have absolutely nothing.

Deception:  I go all in without saying anything when there is a chance of a full house, but I actually have nothing.

Lying is a form of deception, but not all forms of deception are lies.

That's a wheel - best hand in deuce-to-seven lowball.

Sounds reasonable, and consider yourself lucky if you start getting coins that stake within a week. With the current difficulty you should start seeing more and more stakes in about a month.

Just curious, why do you say "in a month"?  I thought coin age doesn't really matter with clam staking.. unless I'm missing something.

Just compare the weight of each stack today compared to yesterday and you will see as time passes(age) the weight of each stack will grow. Probably need to get a best practices for staking guide going so its clear. I remember when you only needed a few coins in a stack to have a decent chance at staking.

Just view your coins in list mode and order them by weight and you will see what I am talking about with age and weight

[dooglus]

It's fairly deceptive to slowly leak your investment into Just-Dice at the opening rather than investing what you had to start with.

I don't think so. While it is true that I didn't invest all my coins at once, I wasn't aiming to deceive anyone. The whole reason for having a crowd-sourced bankroll is that I never wanted to have too high a percentage of the bankroll. It's risky bankrolling a dice site, and I would rather that risk be shared between multiple investors.

I understand though and it's just part of the game when you corner a market, but still want to appear fair.  

I don't know if you are aware of it or not, but you owned more CLAMs than I did when Just-Dice launched with CLAMs. I mentioned to you that I was working on getting the CLAM client into a state that it would work with Just-Dice and you immediately set about buying up all the CLAMs you could. If anyone was trying to "corner a market", it was you.

I have just over 500 in my wallet [...]. Can I reasonably expect to average 1 a day?

I look at it like this:

Just-Dice is staking 1134k CLAMs at the moment, and stakes around 1220 times per day. Dividing those two numbers, it takes 929 CLAMs to stake once per day.

Note that CLAM outputs have zero weight for the first 4 hours after they arrive in your wallet. They don't start trying to stake until they have rested for 4 hours after being involved in a transaction, and so the estimated time to stake won't drop until 4 hours after any new CLAMs are deposited to your wallet.

BTW this has nothing to do with the ongoing controversy. I have nothing but admiration for Dooglus and Deb. I am willing to give up the bankroll proceeds to help the CLAMS network.  LLTGC   

I agree with what you are doing. A few days ago someone withdrew 17k CLAMs and split them into piles of 100 for staking. I think this is good for CLAM as a whole, to have the staking distributed more.

Just curious, why do you say "in a month"?  I thought coin age doesn't really matter with clam staking.. unless I'm missing something.

Coin age isn't relevant, other than the "510 blocks after staking" and "4 hours after transacting" rules. After that, each 1 CLAM has a weight of 1. After a month, your balance will have grown by X%, but the total network stake will probably have also grown by X% and so your share of it will be roughly constant. And that's ignoring the effect of digging, which will cause your share to slightly reduce. But also ignoring the effect of some people (eg. poloniex) not staking, which will cause your share to slightly increase...

I am not sure I understand, why do I see the weight of stacks grow with age?

Are you saying that a 10 day old stack of 20 with a 200 weight has the same chance to stake as a stack of 20 with 1 weight?

If so I have been pretty lucky in spite of myself over the past year

I think what's going on is that the Qt client hasn't been updated to know that stack weights don't increase over time. So it shows the weights increasing over time when they don't really. Stacks of 20 CLAMs all have a weight of 20 once they are mature (and have rested for 4 hours), whatever the Qt client shows. I just checked, and I removed the 'weight' column from Qt's coincontrol dialog in September.

Maybe you aren't running the latest release, or maybe that change isn't in a released version yet. Either way, it's going to go away. In fact I just noticed that the above commit didn't remove the column fully, it just removed its content. I've now pushed a change which removes the column itself as well.

Doog did say I was a liar though.

I didn't call you a liar. I called your statement that the CLAM developers were threatening to remove digging "a lie" - since it isn't true.

I said I bought into CLAM on my own research of studying his post.  This was a lie and Dooglus was deceptive by not correcting it, but he never lied about it.

Are you saying that I have a responsibility to correct every incorrect statement I see people post, otherwise I am being deceptive? That seems like quite a lot of work you're putting on me.

[Cicero2.3]

Thanks Dooglus for the detailed information. It is exciting to be an "early adopter" in this coin. 

[thefix]

Thank you for clearing that up Dooglus and thank you for fixing the client to show the correct weight relative to the size of the stack.

The incorrect data in the client led me to believe that the growing weight was a factor.

My mistake based on the data I had available in the client

[dooglus]

Thank you for clearing that up Dooglus and thank you for fixing the client to show the correct weight relative to the size of the stack.

Well, my first fix, back in September, left an empty column called "12":



And today I removed the empty column, so now there's no "weight" at all:



I figure there's no point showing the weight when it's just the same as the value in CLAMs.

[ReallyRedRum]

I like staking clams.

Awesome, and it turns out I was running an older client

With the current estimate of  a stack of 900 + clams in order to stake daily would it be correct for me to calculate that it might take more than a month for a stack of 20 to stake? Something like 40 + days is what my estimates are

Was the reasoning behind using stake size to discourage people from having a ton of small stacks?

[djhomeschool]

No, it's just how things have panned out over time/as a result of the lotto style of staking. When there were less CLAM, it was easier to obtain the number needed to stake daily, which is approximately (# of CLAMs in existence / 1440)

Doog's estimate will be more accurate because it accounts for stake weight - ie, CLAMs in existence not being staked.

Can I use setstakesplitthreshold command in console to prevent my blocks from splitting below the size I want them to split?

Lets make a deal. If CLAM is not 0.001 by the end of next week then you disappear from here and stop posting here. You stop the fudding and preferably disappear from this forum in general. Looks like a real good chance to prove yourself and show others you are just not full of hot air.

Thank you. If what you say is correct then we will see some serious action in the coming day's. If it is not then this project moves on as it has and everything will go back to normal. Leaving the thread will be fine, and im pretty sure everyones fine with that.
Let the games begin!

No, but you can put:

    splitsize=10

in clam.conf in the same folder as your CLAM wallet.dat and it will only split to size 10 or more.

You need to restart for changes to that file to take effect.

I'll watch with interest.

One problem - I'm seeing "end of next week", and "next Sunday" thrown around.  

How about some dates.  To me, "next Sunday" as it's being used here is January 24.  So the game ends one minute after 23:59 (poloniex time?) on Sunday, January 24, right?

One more thing - is VultureFund another name for BCX, or is he just the winner of the "Miss BCX" award at this year's cryptocurrency cosplay gala?

One more more thing - As VultureFund points out about himself, he is a good guy on a good mission, not unlike Mother Theresa or Donald Trump or Ross Ulbricht.  But can he please stop using such shitty language?  It will complicate the canonization process.
