You can see a orphaned i0coin block on the merged mining tab .

I am running CGMiner 2.2.5 with -g 1 . That's it. I don't set the intensity. I let the dynamic intensity do its job.

You could probably set the intensity up considerably higher than what the dynamic intensity sets it to. Dynamic intensity is just there to allow for normal desktop functions and usually hovers around 3-5 on my machine. Your cards could probably upped to around 7-8.

24hr PPLNS is now in effect

I use to set at 8 but I wanted to try this to see if the rejects would go down. It didn't.

Someone PM me a good question.  How much more BTC as a percentage does all these merged mining blocks give you based on current exchange rates (Vircurex).  I did some calcs and to my surprise here are the results:

Devcoin - 0.47%
iXcoin - 2.5%
i0coin - 3.7%
Namecoin - 25%

Total of 31.6% more BTC (Theoretically) with merged mining vs. without

Happy Mining

I think my connection problem to p2pmining was alot worse than I thought. My ping times are closer to 250ms. I switched to p2pool running on my own system, and my stale rates went from ~5% to .5%. My share rate went from like 2/m to 8/m. I have 3 more graphics card coming in this week, so I will do another test and double check my numbers.

Mine is at .71/m rather then 3.55/m :/

New feature -> Dynamic Difficulty

You can change the difficulty of shares that you submit.

The default setting is to use a dynamic difficulty based on p2pming.com total hashrate. This may not be desirable on some mining rigs.  To set a specific difficulty, just add a + at the end of your username followed by the desired difficulty.  I have tested this with CGminer and it works.

example cgminer command line for 1.5 difficulty shares

Code:

cgminer -o http://p2pmining.com:9332 -O 1KgFh9kWBpz4TsX92xcx78VQ2Fo1jP2Ddx+1.5:anything -g 1 -I 8

minimum difficulty allowed is 1.

Tweaking this setting could increase/decrease hashrate or rejected and doa shares.

Difficulty is tracked along with shares submitted.  So, for example, 4 difficulty 1 shares are worth the same as 1 difficulty 4 shares.

So would a lower difficulty decrease rejected? Or the other way around?  Reason I ask is I have been struggling to lower my rejects, I have already been using -g 1 -I 8 and this did help, but I am still having a much higher rate than most i see on the charts here.

All I can say is maybe.  If you are mining under 800 Mh/s then I would start at trying a difficulty of 2.

See new miner list to see how your stales and DOA compare to other miners at http://p2pmining.com/index.php?method=pool#ui-tabs-4

Very nice i like the new list.  I am 1LexnfSV8QasaY2XkpB2HR14A1GkQ5QUfV with 5.1% now.  I was around 15% for a while till I change intensity and GPU threads.  Just wanted to get it set as efficient as possible.  although after looking at that I can see that I am doing pretty well.  I will test changing the difficulty and see how it works for me. Thanks.

Can you check the payouts on the latest changes, I'm showing 0% share on the last few blocks.I switched back to your pool@midnight PST to test out the new difficulty code and to see how the new DOA stats work Currently 5%. Your 30% more BTC stat "Just when I thought I was out they pull me back in" lol. I verified my miners are pointed to you, and that my local p2pool is not showing any new shares. I did notice some payouts but they aren't the normal payouts i get from your pool. they are  (Newly Generated Coins) payouts. If you switched the payouts then stats on your site are NOT reflecting it.

I think JayCoin instituted PPLNS instead of proportional so payouts may accrue differently but payouts should be identical. Also, with p2pool, I think you have to mine for at least 24 hours to get close to your expected share %. Someone with p2pool knowledge could explain better.

There was a problem with my p2pool code yesterday morning.  The Mysql database connection closed in the python script and then when Someone found a block (You) and it kept throwing an error and your worker kept submitting a valid share over and over again to my client.  Well I guess your address then was forwarded as an owner of that share and was put into the p2pool payout addresses for a few blocks. During this time, your shares where not getting recorded in the database which is why your payouts from the pool are so much less.  As you can see now, your payouts are climbing back up.  To make up for the snafu yesterday, I sent a subsidy.  The extra bitcoin that you received from direct generation should cover losses from your shares not being recorded. 

Sorry for the screw up.  I fixed all the errors and I did some error catching so this should not happen again.

The other miners address you PMd me has a different issue. He is a pool hopper and his rewards are now greatly reduced from the new PPLNS system. His loss is our gain.

[RandomQ]

I hope its fixed crosses fingers.
285   April 26, 2012, 7:56 pm   5/120   0.00005828   0%
The Last block at 7:56PM EST is still showing a low payout maybe it will take 24 hrs for me to catch back up. Good thing is I didn't show any MINED payout on the last block so that part is fixed.
The only other thing I noticed was the Share % is still show 0%, but that may be a switch over to PPLNS.

I felt bad that you lost out because of my screw up.

I took some of my last payout from the last block and transferred it to your address http://p2pmining.com/?method=miner&data=1JkxLX3FC8dovhcSSAEVyb6Z7786PPqvXK#ui-tabs-1

[RandomQ]

oh thanks buddy ,I really like your pool and hope to stay for a long time. Hoping to add another 200mh/s in the next hour.
Also whats up with 16hu2aQAqzR7Q6UANCNeBG1Fr2GRydGrZz is he a pool hopper 57.8% stale?

Yeah the same thing happened to me from mining all day today, but I restarted my miner around 9PM EST, it seems to be fixed now, my i0coin shares are starting to actually be worth a reward. I only have 250Mh/s so its no big deal though.

Good morning everyone,

Just a couple of suggestions I've thought of.
Any chance we can change the DOA stat or have a page with 24hr stats instead of 1hr? Because I want to keep track of stale rates vs changes I do on my settings, and I think 1 hr is too short of a time frame.
Also can you add to the faq in the future the pools main address 18cfVDzcLQ91Xe4yGEs8uJFtHZUiZhmdks so people can verify the amount going in and out of the pool, for the people that don't know how to find that out.

Lets get rid of this bad luck we all been having and have a great day!
