Sorry, needed to take a break from the forum, but anyone that clicked the "WebIRC" link on the site and came to the IRC chanel got pretty much instant support, email responses were a bit slower.
From the Thursday night before Easter to last Sunday I got 4hours or less per night sleep, It seems the sudden rise in prices stimulated a lot of interest in mining , by last weekend I was fully fried and needed a break, people in IRC were noticing I was getting too grumpy so I went away for 2 nights in an attempt to catch some sleep, 1st night 4am , woken up to be told site is down and we need to contact host - host didn't respond until after 9am and it was another couple of hours before they could help us and the site came back up.... not really a great break :/
nemesis if you want this dealt with in public please post your site username so I can check what is going on - otherwise PM me, email me or drop into IRC.....
Over the last week substantial work has been done on the back end of the site
the biggest bug to be squashed was the "not adding all 3 payment types together when total was over threshold"
Quite a bit of code has been optimised and updated.
Miners will notice some changes in how PPS and POT stats are displayed.
The 1st place I update any "News" is in the "Latest News" box on every page of the website - I would encourage miners to check there 1st. When the choice is posting updates in multiple places and answering questions in IRC or fixing the site as quickly as possible I will ALWAYS choose fix the site.
I would like also to remind miners that at times the internet is not the most stable place to run a business
http://www.internetweathermap.com/mapis an interesting site, often miners complain about network issues , but when we look at that map it explains it...
We are looking at ways to make the whole setup more robust, but this will take some time and some money, if BTC prices are stable over $100 we should be able to migrate to a more robust setup with a new frontend within 60days
Best wishes
