Slush,
one of the stratum servers seems to have some sort of connection problems with database. Even tho my miner is sending hashes, which are accepted allright, workers "Last share at" increases upto around 15 minutes. then (I presume the connection gets restored) all the sudden "Last share at" decreases back to zero. Refreshing web pages shows "Last share at" going 15->13->9->7->3->0 in less than a minute.

If you use cgminer you can specify failover pools you can do api2.bitcoin,cz, stratum.bitcion,cz, stratum2.bitcoin.cz, etc all at the same time.  This seemed to have stopped these for me.

Let's give it some time - yesterday it took over half an hour to get self-fixed. Mine is off too:
18176    2013-05-23 19:51:28    2:06:53    17624457    1650    0.00108921    none    237567    25.58627000    90 confirmations left

and earlier when I looked (at around 19:05 server time) my score had just reset and showed almost zero (a few microcoins).

Possibly but its been more than an hour and the # of shares looks normal when its updating the shares usually increases.  I also noticed 20 minutes prior to it ending the numbers reset.

It's now been several more hours and at least for me the rewards haven't been recalculated although miner was working non-stop.

18176   2013-05-23 19:51:28   2:06:53   17624457   1837   0.00130912   237567   25.58627000    36 confirmations left

I guess it's just a bout of bad luck. Well, can't complain, with overall good luck yesterday, it's still profitable.


By the way - does anyone else have any issues with this one - I'm quite a bit short on it too:
18179    2013-05-23 20:42:16    0:15:23    1329197    202    0.00287789    none    237575    25.35675211    44 confirmations left


A little short on that too if I calculate the reward per share.

Block 18176 is off for many of us. Have been waiting for the rewards to get recalculated, then sent a message to Slush at the time when there were only 12 confirmations left.
The block just got confirmed, no adjustments. Obviously, it would be chaotic and unmanagable if everyone cries about blocks, and there should be a proper way to escalate these issues and get them addressed on time. In many cases Slush is able to intervene, but on few occasions the issue does not get fixed.

What would be the preferred way of bringing attention to these issues - especially given that the spam-rate on this thread is rather high so Slush might not be able to notice/catch posts.

Cheers,
   T

PS: dear trolls, I am not complaining about the quality of service Slush provides, but seek a way how he could be notified of pool related issues is a smart way - without highly redundant communication -  in the future. This topic would have been the proper communication channel but given the white noise...

Jp that is why I'm still afraid to move any big miner back and waiting for conformation from slush that he solved this problem. I lost on too many rounds because of this... Slush did report that it is problem with Amazon EC2 Instances...

It's not registered but I think it showed up for a short while just before 237575 was found. Guess we got too lucky for our own good.

This was mentioned a couple of pages back but with the activity here it's easy to miss it. Time for a separate "chat thread" perhaps?

Looks like #18176 is another victim of the score reset.  Or is it just me?

Me too.

It seems this one may not get fixed ...

1 NMC = 0.0075 BTC



Why do we need it?

We don't, but since it doesn't cost anything, why not make it?

+100  

Please add NMC to stratum... Pretty please!?!

if NMC was added to Stratum then we would make a lot more NMC and have a lot more blocks, I wonder if we would accidentally 51% it
For comparison-BitMinter (12Th/s)  
15 blocks per 04:00




is bitminter stratum mining namecoins?

if so how can they and slush cant

Hm, today's luck has been around 144% , does this mean difficulty is going to rise pretty high next adjustment?

We had a lucky day today, earlier this week we had a couple of unlucky days as well. It all balances out. You can't use a single day or even a single week as a basis for expectations of how the future will pan out, you need to look at a much larger sample size. Compare all of today on all of the large pools for example, then average the data from all of those pools for a month. Our good luck benefited us today, but it's just a small ripple in the ocean when you start looking at the big picture

Yeah, luck was good.  Would've been even better if Block 237574 had made it into the pool database.

[Edit]  Wonder where it went.

well... not sure but http://blockchain.info/blocks/Slush shows as Slush's pool.... Huh

fees for any perks, and your contribution is a smaller percentage

hm actually I take that back, I hopped on their pool for 3 blocks yesterday and now I have an OK balance in my account

Or dig a lot, or not produce entirely!
