The current 'dust' belongs to whoever owns the account that has the dust.
I wont be taking it away, it will be sent to them.
If they want to forward it later to someone else, then that's just a straight forward BTC transaction, and their individual choice.

As mentioned before, the new payout system will be: every block, or, once a week, or one a month.
You'll be able to set a payout limit on your account - it will probably default to 0.01 BTC (I've not decided the value yet - but it will also have a lower limit)
Every block will be the top 100-200, or there abouts, but limited to only the top 100-200 miners, who are above their payout limit (and above 0.01)
Weekly will be everyone else who has their outstanding balance, when I do the weekly payout, above their account specified limit.
Monthly will be everyone else, so each month the pool balance will effectively be zero.

Once I have sent out all the dust in the first 'once a month' I will probably set a 100sat limit to monthly rewards and any less than '100sat' would go to the pool and just be part of the txn fees paid to send the payouts.
If you can't make 1c a month mining on the pool, then, well, yep that will make you want to go somewhere else.
At the moment, 100sat/1c a month/12c a year is very roughly 20GHs, and of course that 20GHs will keep climbing.
I haven't finalised my decision on this 'after the first dust payout' 100sat limit - but I can't see any other way to stop ridiculously tiny balance accounts hanging around for a loooooong time.

I have two small dust payments due to be totally honest I never really worried about.  but, if it's easier you can just roll it into the payout bank(or whatever the new systems unpaid BTC is going to be call).

Edit: sorry mistake there 100 sat/month is less than 1GHs

If yaw not part of the top 100-200, then the first weekly or monthly payout you get with the new system will of course include your outstanding dust, so it wont mean a separate tiny BTC amount in yaw wallet.

This is how I've kept mine "cool" so far--max of 35/36°C intake temps.

It's a 6" semi-rigid aluminum dryer vent out a window with the other side blocked off with some foam board. It's admittedly ghetto, but I keep it clean (with Duster ):

I like your venting rig.

 I've picked up a few dryier vents. Ordered a few "Reducers" (7" to 4"). Gonna pull a small window and cut a piece of 2" foam to fit and vent it out. Winter comes I'll reverse em. Even though it never stays cold here long enough for home heat to be an issue. Hell I sometimes turn on the AC on sunny days in January!

Thanks, although I would advise against reducing your venting setup to 4"...

I tried the 4" vent that came with our house for a very short time, and I was literally hitting shutoff temps due to it not allowing enough throughput for my Avalon6's ~190cfm airflow. BTW I might upgrade this to a 220~250cfm if I end up resorting to overclocking/overvolting this thing after upgrading to an exponentially better miner--not as worried about the old one after it's out to pasture.

Anyway, Look for a 6" setup that fits over the entire 120mm fan housing. You will be glad you did it right the first time... and you won't have to hear it from our wife after you make that trip back to the home improvement store.

Also, the cool thing about the foam board in the window is that you can always expand by cutting more holes for extra vents. I'm a little less concerned about the open window security risk in my situation since there's a double-locked and alarm-secured door that seals this back room off from our actual living space.

Last thing: If I ever own several miners, I'm going to rig them up in a vertical position since heat rises, so they can vent up and out the top of the window rather than the bottom.

Mine on!

Has anyone here found the best way to overclock/overvolt an Avalon6 + 1200w HP PSU (DPS-1200FB-1 A)?

Cgminer currently shows that it's running at 11.6-11.7v, which results in 3.5-3.6THs.

Guys I just did some math while waiting for a pie to bake...ya ya ya I know,  I'm no mathmetician,  I'm not smart enough to do a wire xfer remember?  Seems 73% of the pool's hashrate is the top ten miners.  there's 1075 users currently active, and that number is WAY down from when I started mining here.  Not complaining, but looking at it from the angle that this is hardly a decentralized effort.  I know that attracting the whales is a key step for this pool to move forward, and for all I know that 73% number might look very decentralized compared to our competition, but it seems we are losing the little guy in droves!  How to keep the small timer's around I wonder?  And attract more?   I came here from slush and have not regretted that decision at all, but, I am starting to see my opinion shift into the minority!  

I believe, that user number dropped because there were rentals connected, and they've been removed to better protect the pool.
You are correct, that we're losing smaller miners, and I believe that is price related. They simply cannot afford to pay to run their
equipment at the current price. Unless we can somehow raise the price, or lower their bills, there's not much we can do to keep
them around.

No doubt it's a hard time to mine...I'm no where near profitable right now, just trying to get through the hard times.  As far as rentals, we've had this conversation.  Don't think that's a factor.  Alot of miners we lost are in the range between U and me (35-50th)  and the big boys  (say .5Ph).  I'm concerned that those are an important part of the user base.  I wish I could look at some other pools hashrate distribution stats for comparison (ie slush),  If this is an industry wide issue, then oh well.

That's okay kano.is is just fine

Patience...Patience.  
After it's fully confirmed you can start worrying.  From the help pages on kano.is:

When are payments sent out?

The block 'Status' must first reach '+101 Confirms' on the Blocks page, and then is flagged as 'Matured', before the reward is distributed.
The block reward transaction is created manually some time before the block matures, and sent out automatically a minute after the block matures.

Thanks for the block! Pheww this month is turning out to be not so lucky as expected. Hope it proves me wrong

[heartlandmining]

There's still 43% of the month to go.  As things go, the month is pretty "normal" in both the usual and statistical sense.

Yes I know, that's why I said not so lucky as expected. I too want myself to be wronged in a good way

Just showed up on my rewards page. I was unaware of a time lag until now. Apologies.

[ogombii]

By my reckoning we'll hit 30 blocks this month.  June babies always overachieve

Yea, the pool software waits for about 15 minutes or about 4 confirms to make sure the block is "good" before it posts anything to the Rewards page.  You can tell by the tilda "~" in front of the numbers...when that goes away the block is deemed good and the Reward gets populated to everyone's account.

Start of a block party week....we're ready for more, much more!
