works now (I just paid out)

EDIT:

Stats are wrong though:

i guess eleuthria does not want us to see the pretty good luck we had over the
last 24 hours.

my phone loaded the web page earlier today and things were looking pretty darn good
for 24 hour luck.

When I try to do a payout I get this message:

Payout Request
An error occurred while processing your payout, please try again.

Any ideas?

Getting the exact same message, I've sent an email to BTC support hopefully get something back soon ( very annoying though).

Looks like BTCguild is down or at least the site is down.  Hopefully they fix this soon.

Looks like its just the website. My miners are all connected to uscentral fine... at least for the moment.

Good to know as I'm not home to check my miner and make sure it is connected.

If you have a smartphone, http://teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx is amazing. They have iphone and android apps that can directly control your pc at home.

I think we all know what this occurred... eleuthria boasted that he was actually having a relaxing couple weeks... do not taunt the server gremlins.

Eleuthria: I just switched back to BTC Guild. Why do I get a lot of "Warning: work queue empty, miner is idle" messages? I haven't been getting those messages on Deepbit. I'm using the same exact miner starup settings that I use for Deepbit.

There is no requirement that a miner (human) has to use a different worker entry for each of their miners (devices).

Quite true.

Quote
There is no device capable of mining at 34 gigahashes per second.  That is clearly an aggregation of many, many devices.  So, you still have no idea of the distribution of hashing speed by devices.

And your hypothesis only makes sense when applied to devices, not people or aggregations.

Yes, I know that the fastest workers are comprised of many devices and that the latency angle I'm looking at may not be applicable in this sort of scenario. Since mathematically speaking, a super group of 20 large groups of 10 devices should be equal to a super group of 200 devices. But I cannot shake off the feeling that the overall hashrate has an effect similar to latency.

*cough* In the last block, the effective hash rate was 2.354TH/s, the fastest miner had an estimated hashrate of 34214.55 MH/s, the slowest groups of miners out of 2957 miners for that block seems to be CPU miners with 3.38MH/s Cheesy

You are confusing miner, the human with an account on BTC Guild, with miner, the hardware/software combination that does the work.  In pool terminology, the second sort of miner is sometimes called a worker.  But you have to be careful there too.  There is no requirement that a miner (human) has to use a different worker entry for each of their miners (devices).

There is no device capable of mining at 34 gigahashes per second.  That is clearly an aggregation of many, many devices.  So, you still have no idea of the distribution of hashing speed by devices.

You are the one making the claim.  The burden of proof is on you.  I'm just poking holes in it, I have to prove nothing.

point ceded Cheesy

Let me try it another way.  You are saying that 10 miners doing 500 Mhash/sec each are better than 100 miners doing 50 Mhash/sec each.  As evidence in support of your hypothesis, you say that the big pools are getting more blocks than you would expect based purely on their (estimated) fraction of the (estimated) global hashing power.

The problem is that you don't have any idea on the composition of the miners inside the pools.  Let me give you an example.  BTC Guild is reporting about 2.3 THash/sec now, but it provides no data on the number or speed of the miners that make that number.  Could be 9000 miners turning in ~260 Mhash/sec each, or it could be 15,000 miners doing ~150 Mhash/sec each.  Could be anything, really.

*cough* In the last block, the effective hash rate was 2.354TH/s, the fastest miner had an estimated hashrate of 34214.55 MH/s, the slowest groups of miners out of 2957 miners for that block seems to be CPU miners with 3.38MH/s Cheesy

One thing I like about BTCG is that the stats are public. Unfortunately triplemining is the only other pool I've found to provide similar data. If there was a third or fourth pool with hash rates somewhere in between, I might be able to test the theory better.

So, you aren't actually providing any evidence to support your claim.  Unless you have some reason to believe that the distribution of miners in the larger pools is unusual in some way, the whole topic of pools is an unrelated distraction.

I am using and collecting available data, so far the 10% gap remains. If it was all equal, then this gap should disappear over time assuming I just happened to pick an abnormal period to start tabulating. But the longer it gets, the more likely that a higher hashrate may have a small but discernible impact on "luck".

Also, though it may seem trivial it would be very nice to be able to set time zone on block completion for my browsing pleasure (Block Completion Time)


i concur.  local time zones would help me too...  I find myself confused everytime I try and subtract 4 hours from all times.... or is it 5 now?

edit...  a 27 second block..  very kool

More(some) info about the planned Mining teams feature would be cool.
