True, but this pool seems very nice and at least I won't lose out to hoppers since I mine 24/7 Smiley  BTW, what do you do with NMCs? Don't see much demand for them.

I sell them weekly over here. It only gets me about .10 BTC a week  Smiley

If you use cryptoxchange they have NMC features to buy sell and trade nmc for usd or BTC.

I used to trade my NMCs on BTC-E, but they no longer seem to accept NMC deposits, so Im just piling them up and will donate them to the pool once we have feature that allows that. Then its Docs problem Smiley.

What's the chance of three > 95% CDF blocks in a row? :-(

I don't believe there is a bug.  I've mined solo for long enough to be calm in cases like this.  Between Christmas and New year 2010 my 5970 found 0 blocks at 700 Mhash/s, while a friend mining 1.8 Mhash/s on the CPU of a laptop found 2 blocks in 2 days.  A short time after I found four blocks in less than 24 hours.  Sometime around then I found two blocks with only one block between.  Randomness is terribly unpredictable.

Now I don't feel so bad, I have been on this pool only for the last two Smiley

Stick around, we usually do way better than this. Usually 1 or more blocks a day.

What did you break Doc? You were supposed to run the pool server with --blocks=fast and --double-blocks, not with --blocks=ultra-slow  Cheesy

This.
Oh well, look at the bright side, chances are we wont have a week this bad again for a long time :p.

Lol, I like your optimism!  Thats a good way to look at it... just getting our bad weeks over with early so its nothing but good ones from here on out   Wink

All we need is for Bitcoin to start taking luck into account to help those that are short on it   Grin

Needs more jiggawatts
I switched to v1.2.2 of the back end a moment ago.

What's new:
  • Faster reaction to block changes (detect blocks from other pools faster + initiate long poll response faster)
  • Use X-Reject-Reason to tell the miner why its proof of work was rejected. Support for this coming in the next release of the BitMinter client which will log the messages. Support by other miners is listed here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Getwork_support
  • Improved logging. There is a bug causing the back end to freeze up for 2-3 seconds. Seems to happen about once per day. Hopefully this will help track it down.
