Testing for the next 24 hours, starting now...

Thank you Hope it is working well!

Tested until now...

Checking the rented miners to find out that about 5-6 hours ago or the miner quit or the test link.

Til yesterday evening eu1 with most accepted and most rejected 2e us with both less and 3e test less of both of them.

Now trying from my end to get that rented miner online again, most of the times im lucky doing that.

Needs a bit more testing. Looks like low reject ratio now, but it hasn't been running long enough.

On the test URL how is the reject ratio?

reject ratio = rejected / (accepted + rejected)

Hey Doc,

Looking on your site to check and see again 1 miner had become offline.... the test one. Over about i think 52-54 hours:8,192 reject and 16,233,984 accepted with in that time about 4 hour offline.

the  eu1 miner:reject 7,680, accept 19,771,392
the us2  miner: reject 7,168  accept 18,721,280

The test one is now i maybey 10-30 minutes offline/out and add the about 4 hours that it was offline/out and not putting it back on the test but now on eur1 witch does best for me. The miners are in germany and all from the same owner.

So to me the tester is not so nice.

good luck Doc..

Thanks a lot, very useful data.

Your reject numbers are looking extremely good, with all the servers.

The 4 hour offline is odd though. I'll see if I can figure out what's going on there.

i have gotten 15 hours renting because of i think 10 hours offline, i do not dare to put it on the test adres again.

Glad you like the numbers, the test had the less rejected untill close to the offline. It was higher when i found it offline, so no it did good but the offline parts and because i rent... euhm..

goodluck again Doc.

Editt:

With less i mean:
Eu1: 6500
us2:6000
test:5000
Like that.

Again 3 quick blocks in a row. Me like it! /

Do you know exactly what happened? Disconnected and getting timeouts trying to reconnect? It could be an issue with the renting service as well.

But yeah, I am unsure how well this works, so you should set a backup pool if using test.bitminter.com:3333 just in case. Disconnecting you for 10 hours is totally unexpected though, and I hope that's not the new anti ddos system doing that.

Yeah, pretty sweet

I reset the worker when i moved to test address.



Look like a bit lower reject ratio on regular address...
This is now on stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333
Worker    Ghps       Accepted     Rejected
1           2,418       48,193,536   40,960

[ichtus27]

On Betarig i do not see the place to put the backup pool.

3 miners from the same provider there and eur and usa are doing good, test gave the problem.
first the 4 hour offline and then the 6 hour offline.

Do not give up Doc, goodluck with all you do.

[DrHaribo]

Yay, bitcointalk is back.

Look like a bit lower reject ratio on regular address...

Yeah, that's what I was hoping for, going through anti-DDoS only increasing stales a little.

Hello everyone.   I have been slowing adding 50-100th to the pool for the last 2 weeks now.  Just wanted to drop in and introduce myself.  
I actually operate a pool myself, but have been impressed with Bitminter.  Just wanted to say thanks to the pool op for another great pool.. They are becoming few and far between to find.  
My miners name is Dkinchen, so you will see me around..

Have fun everyone, but mostly, don't ever give up

[DrHaribo]

Wow, that is some awesome luck this morning!  Nice payouts today.

Welcome to the pool!

Yes indeed Doc.  Made a nice chunk of change myself overnight

Welcome to the pool!



Thanks!
Everyone, also with the diff going negative, blocks will be found much easier.  Lets get the pool stable to 3th+ and we will find blocks consistently.

Just FYI.

[iegservers]

Wow..

Just FYI.

Contgrats Bitminter for hitting the very last block at the 48 diff mark

You can say that again!  lolz.

Also, in 2015 blocks, (notice the number, and this years #.. how nice..)  it goes back to 46! 

[iegservers]

Geez.. Enough with the long rounds already..

[DrHaribo]

There's a problem with the main mining server. DNS has been switched over to a different server while the primary server is being fixed.

[DrHaribo]

We are back on the usual server again. If you are mining at mint.bitminter.com you will get back on it again the next time your miners reconnect to the server. Until then your miners will be just fine on the other server.

Apologies for the problems this morning. Your miners probably experienced a few minutes of being disconnected until the switchover took effect.
