KanoPool since 2014 🐈 - PPLNS and Solo 0.5% fee - Worldwide - 2437 blocks

is the luck calc broken or maybe i'm broken ?

Description   Time          MeanTx%   Diff%   Mean%   CDF[Erl]   Luck%
Last 5 Blocks   4.1days   101.0%   123.23%   123.23%   0.7360   81.15%

i think it should be higher yeah ? or prolly it has not been updated yet ?

No;

(Using rough rounded numbers)
50+108+159+32+264= 613/5 = 122.6% diff.

So 81.15% luck is exact.

That 264% block is a killer, if we find a decent block next, the luck for 5 blocks will then jump higher.

On that note ('yesterday') about finding blocks and restarting the pool.

I'll be restarting ckpool in an hour (minute hand just passed zero, next time it's back at zero)
So at 22:00 UTC ~1hr from now.

This is to update the main server ckpool to allow the new remote nodes option that -ck has been working on.
We'll update you with details of remote nodes once they are working and available, but this is the first necessary step in that process

I'll post again about 10 minutes before the ckpool restart.

kudos to dmwardjr for bringing our new mining brothers into the fold.

Well, I know I did not bring all of them here.  Still need to send out more PM's.  I believe a lot of them are here from Slush.

Welcome everyone!  Please remain through to full payout of your 5Nd and stay at least two weeks afterward to get an idea of the potential here at CK/Kano.  I personally do not believe you will regret it.

Spread the word everyone!  Send PM's to people...  Even to complete strangers if you have to.

I was having problems with my miners months ago and dmwardjr was there to help me with his vast knowledge and nothing to gain from helping me.  So, when he said that he was with CKPool and CKPool was more profitable than other pools he had been with, I made the move with a group of my miners.  Thanks dmwardjr!   You too Kano.

ah ha i missed that part (264.195%) & was just thinking the next FEW more decent block (S) will shoot up high to make it up.

How long does it takes for a pool to restart. Unfortunately with no-so-nice hash, there is no an options for a backup pool.

Thanks

New to Kano.is. Jumping ship from Apool with a couple S5's and a u3.
I have one running now on Kano as a test and am using cGminer 4.8.0 that is from Bitmain. Question. Is there a better firmware to be running on S5's while on kano?

thanks in advance,
Donny

LOL, I don't know NEAR as much as I should about mining.  As I tell others, "The more I learn, the more I find I need to learn."  One of the main reasons I recommend coming to CK/Kano Pool and the Pool forum is for the wealth of knowledge to be gained from many people here in the forum on many aspects of mining, the block chain, bitcoin politics, etc...

Thanks for pointing your rigs here and and supporting the pool!

Much Appreciated!

How long does it takes for a pool to restart.

Usually about 100 milliseconds assuming no issues on restart, some miners don't fail over at all while others might for up to 5 minutes. If you have no backup facility you'll probably be mining again in seconds.

I brought my 15TH to Kano.is based on DMwardjr's referral.  Figured, if anyone would know something about the best pool, it would be him.  It's great to find a pool where you can talk to the developers straight when there's an issue.  Also being in a smaller pool and seeing many of the same names as in the forum on the pool stats, makes it even more fun.   This alerting function for Block discover / workers low hashrate alearting that DMwardjr shows me for Kano pool is so awesome.  

P.S Doing my BLOCK DANCE again.  Loving the 2 blocks, here's hoping for a 3rd today.

Zach, is the one to be thanked for that.  When one gets to a point where they can send him a donation for his time invested, I know he would appreciate it.  Any amount helps.  No pressure, just when one gets to a point where they can donate a little.  I know he would appreciate our generosity just as we appreciate his pool monitor.

Thanks Zach!

Indeed, I have found Zach's pool monitor app quite useful, and a bit of a time-burglar, so I am sending a bit o' ye olde BTC to the Zach-man!

And it's time for me to get some lunch, chicken anyone?

I have no idea what version of cgminer is on this last firmware update by bitmaintech for the S5.  I have an S5 but it's not even hooked up.  It's just sitting on a shelf waiting for a power upgrade.  I have all S7's using what power I have available at the moment.  Maybe someone else with an S5 could tell you what version of cgminer is on the latest firmware update from bitmaintech.  Of course, if you haven't already, you can download and upgrade to the the latest firmware upgrade yourself and see what version of cgminer it has.  It can be found here:  https://www.bitmaintech.com/support.htm?pid=00720150101032800325X8cMcY2y068F

I'm sure that one works as well.  I sent a donation about 10 days ago using the one he provides in his signature in the forums.

Which can be found here if you click this quote from him:

Thank you DMwardjr for letting me know about the alerting tool!  Works like a champ and no more need for me to look every 15mins.  =)

We found another block after 1 Days 21 Hours 39 Minutes ! Approximately 264 %Diff - Found @ 2016-01-02 10:37:03
Block # 391403

Thanks for using CKPoolMonitor
