Just reverted the change back on servers, bug in the new code was still causing some lockups. JoelKatz is working on a new patch. I got trigger happy after the patch seemed to be working for a half hour on NL2 without issues. Next update will only go live on one server until we've had a few block solves.

Any chance of the "You generated x.yy BTC in the last 24 hours." stat being exposed through the API?
Will be added shortly.

Does this bother anyone? BTC Guild is proportional am I right? http://forum.bitcoin.org/index.php?topic=24966.0
You'd have to have significant hashing power to actually gain anything. This affects the smaller pools more than anything. It really shouldn't bother anyone, it is what it is.

Patch is now live on all servers.

Some people are still running an older version of the client which only supports resolution to 1 bitcent. You don't lose the the confirmed reward, you just have to accumulate at least .01BTC to get payed out.
I know I didn't lose it as it still shows in my confirmed rewards, but if I can't get it payed out to my client, it's effectively "lost" isn't it? Sure I can accumulate at least .01BTC again, but then anything above and beyond .01BTC (unless you magically hit right at .01BTC) is again effectively "lost".
It's a moot point though, as eleuthria has stated that BTCGuild will support full precision payouts here very soon.

So why doesn't BTCGuild pay out all of your confirmed rewards? Just another way for this non-fee pool to get a few more "involuntary" donations? BTW, I already donate 1%.
Example:
Confirmed Rewards: 0.05029424
Hit the Pay Me Now button
Paid out: 0.05
Confirmed Rewards: 0.00029424
Why? Why not pay me out all of my confirmed rewards? Granted, we are talking fractions of a BTC here, but still...
Example:
Confirmed Rewards: 0.05029424
Hit the Pay Me Now button
Paid out: 0.05
Confirmed Rewards: 0.00029424
Why? Why not pay me out all of my confirmed rewards? Granted, we are talking fractions of a BTC here, but still...
Full decimal payouts had issues on older bitcoin clients, and it wasn't fixed until 0.3.21 (I believe that was the version, may have been +/- 0.0.1). The amounts would not show up in your balance, and would often end up being included as transaction fees without your knowledge.
Once Automatic Payouts are implemented (this weekend unless something catastrophic happens with the servers), there will be a setting you can use which will allow full precision payouts. It will default to 'off' and warn you when enabling that you should be using the most recent bitcoin client if you want to receive all 8 decimals of precision.
Thank you for the clarification.

Thanks el, hopefully that fixes the issue I am having, I'm on NL2 anyways. My 24hr reward has fell significantly due to that issue.

I've just deployed JoelKatz's latest experimental bitcoind patch on NL2, which makes some major changes to the getwork functions. If he's correct on his analysis of the problem, this patch could potentially remove the miner idles unless the process actually manages to cap CPU usage on the server.
July 01, 2011, 01:29:08 PM
I've been getting some miner disconnects on a few of my miners for some odd reason. I checked everything from my end and it seems good. Maybe server is not giving enough work? They sit idle for up to 30 minutes sometimes before getting more work from servers. However the majority keep hashing away

When are rewards going to be fixed for everyone that solved blocks on the UK servers?
Missing some 10+ block payments due to those crappy servers

Did I miss something? BTC Guild is deducting more than my set donation amount.
Donation is set to 2.5%
Estimated Rewards 0.00102531 Estimated reward from current round.
Estimated Donation 0.00002629
2.564%
Donations Given 0.02543637
Confirmed Rewards 0.99359215
2.56%

Uhm ... your rewards already have the donations taken out.
(0.00102531 + 0.00002629) * 0.025 = 0.00002629 ... magic, it is the donation
(0.02543637 + 0.99359215) * 0.025 = 0.02547571125 ... magic, very very close to the donation and the result of rounding to 8 decimal places summed up over all your earnings ... in your favor I might add
Ha. Good point -.-;;;;

Also apparently my estimated rewards is showing 0.00000000 bitcoins.

There seems to be a slight issue to get work after a new block is found. It takes server around ~5-10 seconds to send new work after a new block has been found. Sometimes it just shows up as idle worker and sometimes the miner disconnects and takes ~5-10 seconds to reconnect. I'm not sure what it is due to but it started happening recently (1-3 days ago).
dito
i switched pool untill this is solved...
