My unable to connect problem has mysteriously resolved itself (I ran the exact same batch file that wouldn't work a couple of days ago, and it just works today)  Maybe it takes several hours for the accounts created to become active?

Either way we all appreciate how much time you put into running this pool.  Thank you!

Fixed a bug with US West where new workers weren't properly being sync'd to the pool server.

Our new US Central server is now online.  DNS entries for uscentral have been moved over, along with the unsupported [old] entries (de, de2, nl, nl2, eu).  Closely monitoring the server, but so far the signs are VERY good that the new configuration and load balancer are going to run much smoother.

The new server is similar to US West, where it has multiple loadbalanced nodes.  If one goes down, you will get moved to a working node within 30 seconds.  A big change in the load balancing method was made, which will hopefully prevent the (occasional) idles US West gets at long polls.

I'd go along with that suggestion only if that bonus was restricted and prorated to people that donated to the pool. In other words, if anyone in the pool finds a block and they donate 0% no one gets anything extra.

or even prorate the reward depending on your donation

5% donation    1 btc
2.5%              .5 btc
1%                 .1


edit:  full disclosure i've been donating 5% since E ordered the workers Wink


I would like to bring this issue up again, I dont think that E has commented one way or the other. Would this be 'good for the pool' ?

Giving out more money probably is not good for the pool, no.  Tongue

somethin's up, my estimated rewards are above normal and...::

useast.btcguild.com   Florida   1%
uswest.btcguild.com   US (West)   47%

It looks like I have two miners down at home as well that were hitting east.

I thought it was time to come back. Guess it was too soon. Added a new worker but cannot connect to it. Something is broken.

EDIT: NVM, he just fixed it.  Smiley

good to see you back.  I see you added 2 workers Smiley

eleuthria, could you include "Last Block Awarded" in the JSON stream? Thanks.

The blocks are out of order due to the sync error that caused a 6 hour backlog of blocks last night.  The block allocation script doesn't search for the oldest block to apply it to the oldest round, it grabs them by server (So a few rounds were US West, then it moved to US Central, then East), causing them to show up out of order.

Is this normal?  Bunch of older blocks that haven't been confirmed while some newer ones already have?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it has something to do with the older blocks having more transaction fees in them than the newer ones, so they get higher priority.

OUCH..  does that mean the orange line will fall farther and farther away from the blue until mining is no longer profitable...bummer.

I guess I always knew this, but seeing it in this light gives it more....meaning.

Well, technically the orange line could go above the blue.  Each line is running at different increments.  Right now they won't because you're looking at a 60 day average, where difficulty has massively changed.  If a 60 day period ended up being a steady/declining difficulty, eventually the BTC earned line would be above the speed estimate line.

Who knows. Diff will likely keep increasing, but maybe price will too. No one knows when mining will be unprofitable.

Mining will never be unprofitable for all (except maybe in very short periods). But mining has very low barriers of entries and will become a very low yield activity.

I agree the last day has went well, but I want to see the orange line above the blue line Smiley

Won't happen unless difficulty plummets.  The days of 1 GH/s being >= 1 BTC/day are over.

Maybe we can have a +120% luck day like BTC Mine did a while ago!
