according to slush he's pretty new on the pool and is mining with average gpu.

congrats, luckybear.

posted this in the newby section earlier, reposting here now that I have been given access.  

I am very new to mining, and have been at it less than a week.  This was the first block I have ever found.  I decided to become involved in Bitcoins, because I feel that it could be the answer to all the evils of government controlled currency.  This isn't a "get rich quick scheme" for me. I believe that what we are doing can change the world.  I am incredibly honored to be a part of Crypto-Currency history.  

Thanks to Slush's pool for letting me join, if any new miners are out there looking for a great pool  https://mining.bitcoin.cz/  

In case this post somehow goes down in history, I just want to say....   FUCK The Federal Reserve System.

Hey laughingbear, congrats on finding this milestone block! What are the chances?

It's great to see you joined Bitcoin for the right reasons (in my mind).

This might very well be the first and the last block you find, so enjoy it Wink

Does luckyshare have a forum account? Or the miner at BTC Guild who solved 209999? I was going to give them special forum titles.

If it was mined on p2pool, then the miners would have received the transaction fees. Instead, on slush pool, the pool fee for that block was 13.5BTC. Pretty high in my opinion  Undecided

I'm giving transaction fees to (Stratum) miners...

Can anyone confirm if Slush's Pool optimizes for TX fee or if this was just FIFO?

I'm using standard algorithm included in 0.7.0, so transactions are ordered by the fees.

Everyone was trying to get their transaction in. People paid A LOT. I only paid 0.005BTC fee for mine, and it didn't get included.

Funny. I paid 0.001 and had the transaction included.

Age of coins maybe? Mine were almost virgins  Grin (mined them myself)

You guys are assuming that the pool pays attention to TX fees and optimizes the block makeup.

I'm not so sure it does looking at the number of .0005 fee transactions in there. But there don't appear to be any "leftovers" in 210001, so maybe it was just coin age.

Can anyone confirm if Slush's Pool optimizes for TX fee or if this was just FIFO?

Sadly I don't keep track of who solved which block, only a counter of how many block solves somebody has Sad.

Go look at your database transaction logs to see who incremented their counter at the right time?

Just a thought.

(also to repeat it form the previous page, his name is luckybear laughingbear, there was a typo earlier (Edit: here too))

Noob question: why does the block reward appear to be 38,xxx coins? I mean I get the 25btc reward, but arent the btc to pay the transaction fees supposed to come from the users?

38,xxx coins i guess your looking at the amount of coins transferred in that block.
transaction fees are paid by the sender.
The Miner reward for finding a new block is now 25BTC + TX Fees
