I'm just happy BTCGuild is operational again, I miss the stats and such but simply being able to connect and mine is the important part. Thanks!

I have a question: if you had a couple mining rigs that have been running unchanged during this whole ddos attack, will you get credit for the mining they did or did none of it actually happen/count?

Unfortunately, the limited ups/downs during the attack did not count towards the round we finished after finally coming back online (Round #1464).

Here's what makes me mad about botnets; the IPs of the bots are known but there is no law to stop them. Where is the darn X strikes and you're out rule for THOSE machines when it comes to breaking the law? ISPs should be able to suspend their access and tell the account owner what happened. Everybody wins, but there are any lobbyists bribing politicians to pass legislation to force this to happen so we have a crime (ddos attack) with a way to stop it (shut off the bots' access) that isn't used. http://youtu.be/4DVAsmrwdtQ

The past shares on US East were lost in the transition.
Well.... shit. Any idea how much BTC was lost because of that? I had my miners half and half on you/deepbit during the DDoS and I know they were definately mining for several hours.

The servers were completely unstable for the majority of the past 72 hours. Our record uptime on a server was about 1 hour. Given we didn't find any blocks during the DDoS, no BTC was "lost" exactly, but it certainly was a lot we weren't able to generate. The total shares lost were (around) 1.5 million, or one block worth assuming average luck. Given 72 hours of downtime, "one block" of lost data is preferable to another few hours of downtime.

Working on the caching code right now. Stats should be up in the next hour. UPDATE: Just had a small disconnect on US East. This was not an attack. I ran a bad query for caching the worker stats which locked up the tables.

Miner stats for the current round have been added. Page load time is nearly instant thanks to loading all the information from the local server instead of opening connections to the remote servers. Stats cache is updated every minute.
I will be restoring most of the My Account functionality over the next few hours, and prettying up the page to its former glory.

Is using btcguild.com by itself okay for the host on the miners? Or is it better to select a specific server?

Using generic btcguild.com is fine for now. Once the new server is up that will be pointing to a fully load balanced server. Until then it points to US East.

Can you clarify what you're talking about? The blocks are being rewarded as they always have: 120 confirmations, or immediately if you donate 2.5%.

Then you weren't mining on those blocks. Time spent mining when the servers were going up/down during the DDoS did not get rolled into the blocks when the servers recovered this morning.

I didn't see you list the "forgot password" function not working. Forgot my password and the link in the email 404's.
Edit:
It is working now
