just curious, what back up pools do you use guys? im new in mining and had all pointed to kano; lesson learnt but not sure which would be the best option thanks
I figure that if your miners are going on a short holiday that you might as well get a guaranteed payment while they are AWOL. Otherwise they have a costly holiday and don't earn much unless there is a block found while they are on another pool during the failover For that reason I use PPS failovers. Yes - I will wash my mouth out with soap after this. F2Pool (PPS) Antpool (PPS) I must admit, those are my backup pool also but PPLNS. I switched over to Kano from Antpool after I read this thread. You're not the only ones. I hate to admit it but I also use F2Pool as a backup. I agree that PPS for a backup pool makes the most sense. In addition to the argument that other payment schemes mean that a backup pool has to find a block during a failure in order for the hash to be useful, some pools (like slush) penalize pool hopping anyway. I've considered solo mining as a backup, but that's basically a low odds gamble. As much as I don't like what these larger pools do, I really don't like when my miners are idle due to a primary pool problem. If there were other PPS options I'd consider them as a backup.

Literally! This morning the fan on one of my SP20s stopped spinning and the miner went into repeated restart cycles. Upon pulling it apart I read a short across the fan +12V and GND lines. Fuse F4 was blown, and capacitor C317 was the cause of the short. I've bodged something together to get power to the fan until I can get the correct replacement parts. It is mining again. Amazingly all of the ASICs still work!

Here is a small pps pool (71 TH/s) that I used to see if it would work as a pool3 back-up because I'm sick of f2pool's antics. My S7s ran so well for 2 months that I really didn't get to see how it works and I havn't collected enough reward for a payout yet but I thought I'd throw it out there. It appears to let you volunteer the percentage you want to pay but I didn't get to check that out much either. Bitcoin MinePool - pay per share - 4% with stratum https://www.btcmp.com/EDIT: It looks like it has grown to 350THs lately...

Seems odd that someone would ddos such a small pool as Kano. We must be doing something exceptional here. I wonder if a low level ddos over time would screw with our latency without being detected.
They really left their ass hanging out by ddos'ing right after the block.

Bitcoin MinePool - pay per share - 4% with stratum https://www.btcmp.com/Do you know what they use for there mining address. Dont think ive ever seen them get a block. but could be an unknown for sure.. reason i ask is they could easily use antpool at 2.5 % pps and set 4 % on pool and gain 1.5 % for running a proxy.. Let me know if you can attribute block finds with that pool.. Then ill consider it as a backup.. Best Regards d57heinz

Looks like my new 4.6 won't come today. This means Monday. Postman told me ups/fedex were still trying to catch up with Xmas. They dump many packages on usps now for delivery.

I usually change delivery to hold for pickup, that way I am able to pick up at 8:30 am on scheduled delivery date from a nearby UPS office, otherwise I had to wait till 6 pm for delivery.

I talked to my local post man.. He told me that ups has a contract now with usps.. they dump all the packages on usps now .. Saves them a ton on fuel. to all the rural areas. But dont worry you wont see any of those savings on postal costs. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Edit clgrissom..

Indeed -ck and kano are doing many things right! In fact, I believe the reason we get hit is the better code that -ck and kano have implemented/written for the pool(s) with lower latency than even the SPV/empty block mining numbskull pools can muster. So they have a temper tantrum every time we hit a block - so predictable and petty. Frankly the LAST thing I'm going to do is move my miners anywhere else due to any DDOS attacks like that. What, like I'm supposed to go to their pool instead? Yeah, right. They can KMA! Keep calm and mine on.

It was crazy not sure how the guy got my number but he called me to confirm I would there to accept delivery. Pretty cool.
