Jaycoin,
Some feature suggestions for you since I know nothing about php coding: Merged Mining Unpaid Rewards data for miner pages and an extra field on the blocks with a cron job to check for orphan blocks and mark them as such on the website or remove the orphan blocks from view.
Just throwing some ideas out there.
Veddy
Orphans are now marked and current unpaid merged mining rewards are also displayed. Keep the ideas coming

Why are orphans that are valid not credited, anyway?
My current block value is 50.65, everyone else is around 50.35 (because they are using default bitcoind settings, probably). But, because of including more transactions, my shares are more likely to be orphaned, esp. by people on slow connections.
I get the feeling that it would be better to include 0 transactions on P2P network, to guarantee your shares vs the ppl with low bandwidth/high latency connections?
if I were to solve a block, I'm not worried about it being orphaned on main network at all
ed: hmmm, actually, I suppose it wouldn't grab the whole thing, so each would have an equal chance of being orphaned, eh? so, nm

Just out of curiosity, what's the share difficulty set at? At first it looked like it was 2, but now it's looking to be more like 4. It's not a problem for me; I think my setup would be fine with 8 actually.

If you don't specify difficulty, then the difficulty changes based on p2pmining hashrate. If you want difficulty 1, then add +1 to the end of you bitcoin address/username. +2 would be difficulty 2 shares and so on and so forth. I have some miners on +2 and some on +4. All mining to the same address. The current dynamic difficulty is at 3.6955 (changes constantly). This may cause problems with some miners, so I suggest you always specify a difficulty. Small miners should specify +1.

Oh nice, I think I'll give 8 a try for a while. The hashrate on i0coin must be really small; we've found a pretty big majority of the last 120 blocks.

p2pool found a block an hour ago, but it doesn't seem to be showing in the p2pmining stats. Is there a delay somewhere?

p2pool.info is reporting a erroneous block.
A small miner would be less than 1 gh/s

Yeah. That has happened before. That block also shows that it only paid out the reward to four addresses when a p2pool block pays out the reward to about 200 addresses.

JayCoin,
Just noticed something (i think)... but are the auto-payout amounts the same as the payout mininums meaning that you can't get paid less than the minimum via the instant payout option?

Just started on this pool with litecoin (hope to use it for my ASIC's too) but this litecoin mining calculator - http://www.litecoinpool.org/calc?hashrate=5.62&difficulty=9.40447348 - Says I should be earning ~0.60ltc per 24hrs period according to my 24hour average effective hash rate and I've been mining with you's for over 36hrs now and only earned ~0.32ltc - what am I doing wrong

It takes 24 hrs to reach full mining potential because reward is distributed based on shares submitted in the past 24 hours. Mine for at least a week before making any decision to account for variance.

Does the pool still use the standard p2pool PPLNS? Also where is this server located now? sub 40ms ping times from Arizona sub 50ms ping times from California

Does the pool still use the standard p2pool PPLNS? Also where is this server located now? sub 40ms ping times from Arizona sub 50ms ping times from California P2pmining PPLNS is set up to distribute the reward from p2pool prportionally to shares submitted in the last 24 hours. P2pool PPLNS is a little more complicated. Here what is stated in the wiki https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/P2PoolEach share contains a generation transaction that pays to the previous n shares, where n is the number of shares whose total work is equal to 3 times the average work required to solve a block, or 8640 (= 24 hours of shares), whichever is smaller. Payouts are weighted based on the amount of work each share took to solve, which is proportional to the p2pool difficulty at that time. So p2pmining pays PPLNS based on the reward of another PPLNS. Can any one figure out ramifications of this system? By the way, I have no idea where the server is. vedalken254 would need to answer that.

I think he said in the p2pool server list thread that the server is in Dallas. I get ~60ms ping to it so that seems about right.

I thought because of the nature of namecoin, when you find a bitcoin block, you also find a namecoin block?
In that case, aren't we short a few namecoin blocks?

When we get credited for finding a Bitcoin block, it doesn't mean P2P Mining was the one that found it. We did find block 197723 and found a Namecoin block shortly after.
