Being Chinese, I am now wearing red underwear to ward off the bad luck.  I STRONGLY SUGGEST IT!
my brother teaches english as a second language to Chinese students. I will put on a pair of red jockey under pants right now. Followed by a red jockey undershirt!

 Is this TMI?

Seems to have done the trick!!

Lets hope we don't see another block like that for a while.  99.8% CDF  Cry

Let's hope so. I have had more than enough visions of people in red underwear for now (actually it works better if it's a hot chick in red underwear.).


Quoted for posterity.

Is that why I have such bad luck?  I don't have any red underwear!  Maybe I need to go shopping!  Now taking donations for red underwear!  I spent all my money (more than I should have actually) on new asic miners, unfortunately they won't be here until March.   Cry   So I'll be adding 1.2-1.8 Thps in march.  I might have to sell my pre-order on one miner.  I sold some gold coins I had stashed away to get some money.  now I don't have any more gold to sell if I get in trouble.

My wife has some very nice sexy red underwear...  Maybe that's why she is so lucky!  OK.... so I do have some good luck.  I have a sexy wife in red underwear.   Grin

I think it might be wise drharibo to post what you actually updated in your latest software update mentioned in post #5475. Now I know the answer is right above it. But as our bad luck has coincided with that, I think that is where people are getting the silly idea you changed how we mine or something.

lol, this is too funny...nobodys holding a gun to your head to mine here.  Dont you think its odd that nobody out of the top 50 is complaining?  When i started mining here, 7 days to find a block was the norm.

I was in the top 15, mining for the last 2 months but the latest series of DDOS and the data centre incident made me switch to Ghash.io
It was a good run, mined around 80BTC.

question to the doctor   antminer sticks are flooding the market  they are a killer stick.   when do we get support for these?

Looking into this. No ETA yet.


These Antminer USB sticks are close to my call @ $50 per 2 gh and are a reasonable effort.

The Original AsicMiners are getting lost in the dust, need price drop for those to sell faster as you need 25-50 of em now to make a dent in BTC.

Did you get anywhere with Red/Blue/Ice USB miners ?

Pretty soon we will be buying old BFL gear when it floods the used gear market, doubt any but the very rich will crush em...

We are the kids on this block Smiley

Looking at the 'Blocks' page, it looks like whenever (or almost always) a block of BTC is solved by a member, he also solves the NMC within a second or so.  Is that how it works? A BTC find also solves NMC? I would have thought they are independent and would be solved at different times / rates?
BTC and NMC are solved by the same proofs-of-work (that's why it is referred to as 'merged mining').

Right now NMC difficulty is slightly less than BTC difficulty. So if a proof-of-work solves a BTC block (difficulty 1.4 billion) then it always solves an NMC block (difficulty 1 billion). The converse isn't necessarily true; that is, a proof-of-work may be enough to solve an NMC block but it may or may not be enough to solve a BTC block.

I am using cgminer / special build  from github and have 30 sticks pointed here  they hash at 2 gh and sip power.

 pretty nice sticks.  do you need me to mail one to you?  they are a perfect physical match to asic miner in terms of size.

 they hash at 2.0 vs .333  so 6x the speed at 2 watts vs 2.5 watts.  a lot of people will want these to replace the am sticks.

Time to put on red underwear.  We had kind of a consensous many pages ago that red underwear is a block finding miracle.

Finally, 3 blocks in the last 3 hours including a 6 minute block.  Hopefully we'll get a break from the 8+ hr blocks for a little while.  Knock wood (and don't jinx it).

Can somebody explain for me (or link to an explanation) the reason for the extra long shift that ended at 2014-01-03 02:10?  I understand some server moves have been going on ... were we down for awhile?  My bfgminer crashed at that time and I only submitted minimal work for that shift before I realized and came back up.

Yes, the data center outage caused mining to stop for a while and that's the reason we took longer to finish one of the shifts.

Try the latest version of bfgminer, hopefully the crashing when being disconnected is fixed.


Thanks as always, Doc!

I may try upgrading bfgminer ... this is actually the first crash I have ever seen.  It's held solid through downtimes before, believe it or not.  I was shocked.

In any case, ou luck an change with better rates, so hopefully we can et it back up.

Well, luck won't improve with more hashrate, but the impact of good and bad luck will be reduced.

Heads up good luck is knocking at the door Cheesy
no drama about it. It happened before and will happen in the feature
But as we all know green pages are coming
There are folks which come and go because they do think that they are loosing here but this is not the case

Also sucks we go from 12 blocks a day down to as of right now, 2 ;-/

Hashrate has dropped some. We are down to 6.5 blocks per day. 2 in a day can happen with bad luck, but it's not the new norm.

The hashrate will go back up again.

Seems the las bit of trouble did hurt the pool as I thought it might ;-(

Ws around 418Th and since then is holding steady / slight bouncing around from 377 - 385, I'm almost afraid to think of what it will look like when the new equipments out around the end of next month.
Seems o be holding steady around 375-380 which means we did lose some people / around 38th. Hope we can bouncee back bu that means an infusion of new miners.
