i will no more answer to your pitty cries, there is no buttons on the pool to improve miners luck, sorry.

the wallet works very well, since beginning... never had to touch it

note: sorry to be rude, i answer in your language

Stats on pools can be manipulated. That aside, it's entirely possible for pools to be buggy and not find blocks or have something wrong with it. In this case due to the change in luck on the two pools I mentioned, with exactly the same lucky (roughly), it probably means something is up with yiimp.

Just like mining software can be buggy and flake out. Just because something exists doesn't mean it's working perfectly.

Some pools have funky stats reporting also. I can't make sense of Coinmine having well over 60% of the hashrate, finds about 50% of the blocks, and still it somehow manages to estimate that it had 60% luck finding recent blocks (when it actually consistently has about 100% or worse). So yeah, something must be wrong with Yiimp

That's because Bensam left. He was holding the pool back.

One of the things I've always liked about yaamp/yiimp is it has the most transparent stats of any pool. When one is able
to see more of the process there is a chance one will see some things they either don't understand or don't like but
have always existed.

TROUBLE COMPILING CPU-OPT IN LINUX--

I'll shift this question to your thread in order to stay on topic.  Usually the "build.sh" script ( I think it was written by tpruvot) just runs, maybe with an adjustment to Makefile.am in ccminer.  I can't get cpu-opt to compile in Lubunto 14.04.4, and I have the standard setup to compile ccminer.

Like I said, Ill post the same question in your CPU-OPT thread, we can figure it out there.       --scryptr

Still better then MNpool and Suprnova. Tried out Coinmine and got pretty much what was estimated on average on the pool page over 24hr.

Apparently... Or Epsylon turned off his skimmer. XD

[Epsylon3]

yep we got some :p... 4 consecutive blocks in 3mn by different users.. Thing which should be almost impossible with the chain block time... But when that happens the net diff go very high (was at block    21118)

its more than luck at this level more a lottery winner. we are over estimated rewards today

I still don't believe that... The more data points you have, with the more hashrate you have, the more 'luck' will normalize. Variance decreases when the amount of data points increases. That's why people generally stick to larger pools, it minimizes variance and 'bad days'.

[corsica]

i am grateful for epsylon for his work,

learned much using his pool statistics and graphs

thank you really mate

[bensam1231]

There is one realllly big miner that I've seen hop on and off of Lbry the past couple days. Somewhere around 300GH. I think there is another one around 200GH that is constantly on the coin I saw pop off once.

Hello
as anyone be able to use ccminer with the GTX 1070 ?, i installed the new drivers 367 (xubuntu 14.04 x64) nvidia-smi works perfectly and I can set power target, but ccminer won't load.
i tried sp's ccminer, tpruvot's ccminer and same, it won't load.

i'm still with CUDA 7.5 (i have cuda 8 ready but i didn't install it yet because i wanted to test how it went first with 7.5 but it does not load.

both compiled from source after the driver install.
was anyone able to make it work under linux?

Yes it worked right away for me.
I just updated the driver for pascal support.
Even the old binaries worked without recompile.
Nothing different.

Hi pallas
For some reason ccminer (all versions) does not seems to detect the new driver i get:

ccminer --version

Code:

SP-Mod 1.5.79
Compiled with GCC 4.8 using Nvidia CUDA Toolkit 7.5

  Based on pooler cpuminer 2.3.2 and the tpruvot@github fork
  CUDA support by Christian Buchner, Christian H. and DJM34
  Includes optimizations implemented by sp, klaust, tpruvot and tsiv.

is a ccminer issue, a driver issue, i will try to install ethminer to see if it detects the card.

Hi pallas
For some reason ccminer (all versions) does not seems to detect the new driver i get:

Can you confirm you are actually using the new proprietary nvidia driver and not the open source nouveau?
Did you install from the repository or use the run file?

I have Linux Mint based on Ubuntu 14.4 so I'm very interested in this issue.
In mint there is a driver manager with one click switching to the proprietary driver. It still shows the
old 352 version as recommended and I haven't found 367 packaged for Ubuntu 14.4 yet.

using the run file for months and didn't have any issue.
of course you must reinstall it every time a new kernel version is booted.

From the same thread:

Reasons:

Specifically, Plaintiffs allege that the GTX 970 devices were sold based on misleading representations that the devices:

1. Operate with a full 4 gigabytes (“GB”) of video access memory (“VRAM”) instead of the actual 3.5 GB of VRAM and a “less performant” and decoupled 0.5 GB spillover segment that operates as slow as one seventh the speed of the 3.5 GB pool once the device is required to access more than 3.5 GB of memory
2. have 64 render output processors (“ROPs”), as opposed to 56 ROPs
3. have an L2 cache capacity of 2,048 kilobytes (“KB”), as opposed to 1,792 KB, and omitted material facts to the contrary.
4. Defendants have denied these allegations and asserted numerous defenses.

Thx bathrobehero.
So this could lead to instabilities?
I have 2 980ti and 2 970gtx. Wonder if I can get $ for that?

I am doing great at yiimp testing another pool then back to yiimp.
