have been on beta2 since my last post and been totally stable. Is there some bug keeping you from pushing to prod?
I was just waiting on a new release of a library I'm using. New version coming up any moment now

We are super lucky today:)
I am considering to buy a lottery ticket!
And the pool is stable as usual
10X DOC!

can workers be sorted alfabeticaly?
If I remember right they are sorted in the order in which they were created. I'll add selectable table sorting to my TODO list.
correct me if I'm wrong,
with EMC disabling NMC mergemining, BitMinter is the single most efficient pool.
only one with all 4 efficiency-important features : stratum,NMC,no fee,paying transfer .

I'm not sure. I don't think there is a pool comparison like that anywhere?
But yeah, zero fee with namecoins and transaction fees paid out is probably the best pay anywhere. We also have a very low reject ratio, especially when using Stratum. The only way to top this would be to merge more coins. But the other mergeable coins look kind of worthless. Keep in mind that income from transaction fees and namecoins are much more important now after the reward halving. Tell your friends!
That said, I hope those who like the pool will consider enabling donations, or just don't disable them as they are enabled for new users. Some income is needed to pay expenses like server rent and to keep improving the pool.

now its random.

This is exactly why I'm staying with BitMinter. But I can't imagine how the pool could stay online if everyone had their fee set at 0%

Thanks for the fix! By the way, is the reward page causing a large load on the server every time it's viewed? It loads quite slowly.
The web server's access to the database is a bit slow right now. This page in particular is very slow because of that. I'm not yet done with all the changes after the DDoS attack. This will improve in the future.

Oops I forgot to fix the reward graph. Now working properly again.
It was still assuming that blocks should give 50 BTC instead of 25 BTC so our luck looked horrid.

salcox, thank you for rescuing us from that 20mil proof of work, 16-hour monster!

well, seems win 8 is working better for this prog Right now HD 7970 ghz edition, under win 8 it gets 640mhash with bitminter web prog and win 7 gets 530-580mhash.
love this simple prog very much and hope after asics will hit, then it'll support litecoin too (or make new version for litecoin), cause I need something for my VGA-s

Hey Doc, I am now using bfgminer-2.9.7 and it's the same message.
"No servers could be found to get work from"
"No servers could be found to get work from"
This works for me with bfgminer 2.9.2:
Code:
bfgminer --url stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333/ --user DrHaribo_worker --pass workerpass

Any ideas why I can't mine using the stratum protocol using bfgminer?
I haven't tried bfgminer 2.10 yet, but it worked fine with 2.9 (with the same URL you are using)

I prefer to use cgminer, but being a Gentoo Linux user, the version which is capable of stratum has yet to appear in my repos, so I am stuck with cgminer-2.7.*
However, I do have bfgminer-2.10.* which is supposed to be capable of stratum, and yet it fails miserably.
I try to connect with....
stratum+tcp://mint.bitminter.com:3333/
It complains no servers can be found.
It does however work using getwork - the traditional way http:// etc etc

Been totally stable since my first post.
Doc, if you want my email so you can email me to test new versions drop me a message. I have bfl ASIC's on preorder as well.

Cool. v1.3.1 should be ready soon.
Can you send me an email at [email protected] - then I can let you know when there is something new to test. Thanks for the help!

I am running the new beta 1.3.1beta2 on a 7970 and bfl single. Just turned it up but so far so good. Is a couple mhash faster too; previously I was getting 8 mhash under the driver I ran (so 808mhash firmware would run at 800 on bitminter) but now it is 5-6 mhash less instead of 8. The 7970 seems faster too but could be my imagination as gpu tends to fluctuate quite a bit more than the fpga.
Windows 7 64 bit running latest java 7 update 11
Will let you know if I have any issues and post this on your software thread.

That's what I like to hear! Thanks for testing. Looks like 1.3.1 will soon be ready.
Each block (on average) you will lose half a nonce range ... if the code is optimal - i.e. if it aborts the nonce range when an LP arrives and throws away the work - without counting it since it can't be counted.
Yes, with every block change it aborts the current work. And the already processed hashes that are thrown away are not counted towards the hashrate. So at every block change you can see a dip in the hashrate. That can be a little confusing for some users, but it's a result of how the BFL FPGAs work.
