OP, I sent you PM a week ago. Did you get it? I just sent another PM.
Did you miss where he posted that he was sick? Be patient, I'm sure he'll get to you eventually.

Hello Miners, Few announcements: - Thanks to all of our miners for giving us a great stress test, we found some inefficiencies in our code, and our pool keeps getting stronger - We've put up a third server frontend and latency times are much lower. If you switched to another pool until we fixed the lag, now is the time to give us another try - Pool join requests have all been processed. If I missed yours, I'm sorry there were a ton, send me another PM. - We made some small improvements to our hashrate estimate in the web interface, but it is still a work in progress. - Thanks for the kind wishes, I'm feeling much better today Chris

Glad to see you on your feet again and happy to hear that the pool is growing. Are all the servers in the US?

A few more questions from a coinlab noob: 1) How can we see how many loyalty points we have accumulated 2) How can we see how many loyalty points we have remaining 3) How can we see when coinlab believes we are at less than $2.50/ghash/day 4) Is ths $2.50/ghash/day based on MTGox avg trade per day or last price 4.1) If last price, how can we see what proportion of a days mining consumes loyalty points 5) Will we be notified when coinlab believes we are at less than $2.50/ghash/day?
You may have missed these quesitons while you were sick. Just wondering if you could answer when you get a moment.

Out of curiousity
Any idea what the total hashrate is for pool currently?

Chris, any chance we can can get SSL, or preferably TSL connections to the website? I know as it stands right now, there isn't anything to do but view the stats, but as things like miner settings, payouts, and others get added, encryption would make me feel a lot better.

You may have missed these quesitons while you were sick. Just wondering if you could answer when you get a moment. Thanks, I did miss them. 1) Your Loyalty Points are equivalent to the number of shares you have submitted, so you can see your total loyalty points in the "Total Shares" column of the web interface 2) No Loyalty Points have been redeemed yet, so the Total Shares column represents the total number of points you have 3,5) We don't have any indicators on the web interface when the price drops below $2.5/ghash/day but we'll post in this thread when it crosses the threshold if it happens before we get our automatic payment system online. The automatic system will have an indicator. Currently, for us to cross the price floor threshold, BTCUSD price would have to drop to $6.7 or difficulty would have to increase by 175%. The current 95% PPS rate is equivalent to $4.23/ghash/day. 4) $2.5/ghash/day is based on the MtGox 24hour average price. If for any reason MtGox is no longer the most reliable source for pricing, we'll discuss this change in this thread (but that seems unlikely in the near term). 4.1) No Loyalty Points have been redeemed yet, so the proportion for all users is 0.

When we implement our payout system, we'll use SSL (or TSL, I'll have to talk to the devs to learn the difference). Right now, the only thing your password lets you do is: - Earn Bitcoins by mining - Check your mining stats We're generating low-security random passwords for miners now, because we want you to realize that these passwords are NOT high security. Until we automate the signup process, I have to enter each miner's password by hand, meaning I will see it, so users can't use high security passwords yet. Once our automated payment system is online, we'll require each miner to create a more secure password for their account.

Payouts will be starting in ~30 mins. Right now, we are pushing some new features to the admin pages that will streamline the payout process.

In other news, we now have miner idle email notifications on the pool. Here's how it works: - Email/PM me to let me know you want idle notifications turned on - Start/continue mining - When we haven't seen you submit a share for 300 seconds (5 mins) we'll send you an email notification - Once you've submitted another share, your active status will be reset, and the next time you don't submit a share for 5 mins, you'll be notified. Email or PM me if you'd like email notifications enabled on your account.

Announcement:
The week of 9/9/12 has been paid out.
We have changed our week boundary from midday Monday PST to 12:00 AM Sunday UTC, so the statistics on the web interface will match payouts.
As such, this week's payouts reflect about 5 days worth of mining, because the first couple days of this week were paid out last Monday. Also, many of you have already earned coins this week, those will be paid next Monday.
Starting next week, we'll pay out the amount seen in the web interface for that week (or 2% more if you submitted more than 1.125M shares). This should alleviate the confusion some of you having with why our payouts don't match the numbers in the web interface (it was because they were using different time periods).
If you have any questions, send them my way.
Thanks,
Chris
PS: I wasn't able to get through the Pool signup requests. I didn't forget about you and I'll process you first thing tomorrow.
PSS: Our CTO is testing some improvements of our Hashrate Estimation in the web interface, and is now testing it on the live site. So far the numbers look better (they weren't very accurate for large hashrates before), but you may see some weirdness tonight as we try different variations. This estimate is completely separate from credit calculations, so seeing weird numbers doesn't put your mining earnings in jeopardy in any way.

Much better! I wouldn't mind a 60 min average or adjustable.

Still having occasionally comunication failures and plenty of Pool not providing work fast enough. The very annoying thing is that is never bad enough for cgminer to consider the backup pool but bad enough for hashrate to drop (failover strategies).
Load balance strategy seems to always favour the backup pool even when CoinLab is doing OK, so no. Balance strategy works, but with a hashrate often significantly reduced (70-50%), so no again. The site is also sometimes unreachable. NO, I do not have any net/software/hardware problems.
Any ETA on EU servers?

What he said. Or the bits of it I understood anyway. BTC Guild - rock solid. CoinLab - sputters like crazy.
