Are Idle Warnings going to return?
I've been trying to figure out Idle alerts for 2 days now. Please tell me it's not me, they are just not available right now. That would make me feel not so incompetent.

Regarding instant payouts: Yes, technically INSTANT payouts will be gone if there is a 1 hour delay is added.
For people who donate 2.5%+ they can still have instant payout, right? Even with a 1 hour stats delay, the website would show confirmed rewards from an hour ago. But when the Instant Payout button is pressed, all confirmed rewards can be paid. The end user would see a slightly higher payout then expected.Then the user's confirmed rewards would remain at 0.00000000 BTC until it "catches up" with the one hour delay again.
I think as long as you have a message explaining "You just received a payment -- confirmed rewards will show after stats delay," you won't have a problem.

Not yet, I've been a bit busy today with a new botnet that surfaced on the pool last night. Its a different one from the last two.

have you implemented delayed stats yet?

Last 72 hours have had alot of fluctuation, but I checked a couple of other pools and they have had much, much longer rounds, btcguild performs well IMO.
i agree. looking at slush which is very comparable they have 4 hour blocks sprinkled into their
stats just like btcguild. deepbit with double the power has 1+ hour blocks quite often during
a 24 hour period.
--------
was the invalid block just bad luck/timing or a server issue?
Looked into the invalid after waking up, it was a standard run of the mill invalid. Our first "real" invalid in a while (the other 4 most recent were from when US West had stability issues during LPs). Came from US East, no odd signs in the logs showing anything other than somebody else on the network came up with a solution slightly before US East sent out its solution.
Regarding instant payouts: Yes, technically INSTANT payouts will be gone if there is a 1 hour delay is added. It still doesn't have to wait for 120 confirms, and it still allows you to receive rewards from invalids.

Delaying stats means also instant payouts if donating 2.5% are gone then, right?! 
I suppose that is true, because as soon as you see that you got more btc, you could switch back to guild.
I have to say that I am very happy you are relooking at the whole payment issue. The only reason I do most of my mining on BTCMine is because they do a score based system. I still do throw one of my boxes at you and have 3% donations set.

That has to be the worst strike of luck ever. At 2000+ GH/s, we found 2 blocks in 10 hours 10 minutes. Thats almost 6x.

Is this round getting to be too long for anyone else's liking?
Also, any chance you could have bitcoins earned during the week, with a set day, say reset every sat midnight?
Seems that day to day can vary a lot, but would be nice to see how much it averages out to over a week. At least for us non hoppers

I realize that, but I believe you can infer a block found when you 'shares this round' reset. (are lower then last you checked).
That being said, the most important stat I use the the 'Last Share' which tells me conclusively and very quickly that the miner is still accepting shares.
side question: How do you get your 5850 to 400H. is it flashed to a 5870?
part1: Yes he should delay those as well since you're right about being able to detect a new block that way. As for your workers, normally the worker stats page is realtime (it seems frozen at this time though) so you should be able to hit F5 to refresh it and see if any of your worker threads are at 0 MH/s, also that will let you know exactly which GPU has crashed (if you name the workers sanely)
part2: I clocked it to ~980 MHz core, 300 MHz RAM, and have the latest PhatK Kernel improvements
Thanks guys.... I pushed my 5850 rig up to 980 / 450 and I am now getting 365 . when I left the mem at 300, it did not increase past 340, but pushing the memory up with the core now I am getting 365
edit: 2 seconds after posting my display drivers reset and recovered.. but that means a reboot anyway. so I set the clocks at 960/500 still getting between 362 and 368

I am seeing an amount on my Unconfirmed Rewards. I have not seen this above 0 since I started donating 2.5%/ currently donating 5% and have not change it. is the central issue possibly to blame? I am connected to that and did see the connection issues for a while.
edit: looking around for that luck switch... these 5 hour blocks will kill a good man.

Yea the last 48 hrs have yielded lower than usual btc, the 24hr prior to that was smoking hot. One question I have is when does the miner idle warning setting buttons return?

Fixed the bug. Optimized the database to significantly reduce size and speedup SELECT queries. Ended up changing block_number (not block ID) to an unsigned value momentarily, then set it back to unsigned after remembering block_number is set to -1 on invalids.

Same, I'm seeing unconfirmed rewards and I'm donating 2.5%
Thanks for your reply.

The worker stats froze because the sync script was failing to connect to US Central. The connection issues on Central are outside of my control, they're a network wide issue, not a server specific issue. Once I get the reset shares/last shares restored I'll split the sync script for worker stats so an individual server won't stop the rest of the workers from updating.

I will likely implement the stat delay, since the response to possibly changing payout scheme from proportional is quite mixed. Essentially "This Round" would be removed from worker stats. You'd have:
Est. Speed, Total Shares (Since Reset), Total Shares (All time), and Last Share Received
Reset shares and last share received are being fixed tonight/tomorrow. I will hold off on implementing a stat delay until those are back in place to allow reasonable worker monitoring.
