Don't talk, Dragon, lest you scare them away. Be ready to grab them blocks while I scare them out of their lairs and drive them your way!
Come on, at least one block more today... Grin

*playing a hillbilly*
Yeah, I told yous I'd be pounding that block with my pickaxe. I scared it away from its hiding place allowing mqpickens to score a kill.

Hehe Smiley Reminds me of the time I said I was going to enable the fast block cheat, and just a moment later we built a block. Tongue

Good to see we got 2 BTC blocks. Well deserved with that long block and all the trouble today.

Just curious, what was the problem?

The pool back end was taking a lot more requests than usual. For a while it was eating 10 times as much CPU as it normally does. Memory usage was on the rise. Miners couldn't get work fast enough, and we could see much more rejected proofs of work than normal. But it was still sluggishly moving along. After a while of this the load suddenly shot through the roof and the server was almost completely dead.

I guess it's time to invest in a bigger server.

it's the coin, it just does not want to be mined Tongue
Imma clobber it with me pick-axe until it surrenders and excavates like any well-behaved coin.
93,53% is just terrible... guess we're paying for that incredible New Year's mining spree.

Yeah, there's no such thing as a free lunch. Now the terrible long block, and server getting overloaded. Sad

At least it's running well again now.

ozcoin is down too. Could it be a DDoS attack? most other big pools appear to be working though.

Hmm I don't get how you can mine at all? I can't even type a command in the shell at this point.


it died again shortly after.  Cry

Looks like it just packed it in a couple mins ago for me. can't make contact.

And after I wrote that the load kept increasing. At this point the server is almost completely unresponsive. Not sure if it is a DoS-attack or if a botnet is trying to mine here. But the current server can't handle either.

Sorry guys, not much I can do at this moment.

Argh! Did someone hook up 1000 computers this morning? The server can't keep up with all the getwork requests and we are getting very high reject ratio now. Sad

In a meeting at work, difficult to do much right now.
