Heya slush, several users are popping into IRC, stating that Confirmed/unconfirmed stats are not updating yet.  I don't know if this is a known issue, but I am seeing it on my own stat's page too.  Only estimated stats for current round looks to be working correctly.

Oh yeah, FAQBot poofed again.

Thanks slush, looks pretty good on my end.  I hope you took a sleeping pill and are knocked out for 10+ hours.

what's with all the nublets in the thread now, I feel dirty reading all that nonsense.

I am noticing that even though blocks are being found, my unconfirmed numbers are not changing at all. I know we wouldnt see any confirmations or payouts, but in the statistics page I see unconfirmed amounts that are not being added to my total for  unconfirmed.

--tim

we haven't found a block in almost 5 hours.  And before that everything seems to match up for me...

Slush is down to 5%. No PPS is hurting it in my opinion. I tried both on BTC Guild and PPS is much more lucrative than PPLNS (I know Slush is different with SCORE). No wonder BTC Guild has started defaulting new workers to PPLNS.

BTC Guild's current PPS rate: 0.0000026464471419
My current PPS rate on slush's pool (avg. from the last 30 blocks): 0.0000026582937162

Even with the problems due to OVH being full of idiots and a 24h pool luck of 67%, I'm still making more here than I would have on BTC Guild...

Unfortunately, you can't consider Slush as being PPS as the payout is based on luck. But I was only making an observation in general between PPS and PPLNS systems from a pool that is consistent on the difference in payout bewteen the 2 methods. I was averaging around 0.06 BTC/day with PPLNS and almost 0.1 with PPS!

Not tying to dis-credit Slush in anyway.

and when the luck goes back too 100+ like it is most of the time we make almost twice that.

I will be back to Slush when it stabilizes.

This 5% you speak of is a very poor number to quote right now. It is from blocks found in last 24hr. Also recovering from hack and ultra bad luck on the day.

At 7.5 Thash/s, pool is still easily 10-12% of total hashing power of the network.

Incidentally, the miners who stick by Slush during outages/hacks/ddos  get really nice fat payouts when all the knock-knees and fraidy-cats head for other pools  Grin

Seriously, for a couple years now I would just set my miners and then forget them.  I don't touch them unless something breaks.  If there is a problem with the pool, they may stop submitting shares, but slush is always right on top of things, and as soon as the pool comes back online, so do my miners.  I normally don't even know there was a problem until after it has been resolved.

The more miners that stay with Slush, the more likely our luck will change for the better (more miners = more chance to find a block).

ok now that this is fixed, can someone tell me were to find out how to get a namecoin wallet up and running. I must be missing something really simple. If this is the wrong thread i'm sorry just steer me in the right direction. Huh

Stratum mining doesn't support namecoin, so it's a bit obsolete here.

Well Slush has us all happy again.

Slush can i ask for 1 more thing, can you change our LUCK at finding blocks,

4 hour block, now, 5 hour block an hour before that and another 5 hour at the start of the day.

Not good for us

joolz, I am unsure if you are kidding or not...

site doesn't work for me, same message that it is down did the address get changed?

If you are on windows, start->run-> "ipconfig /flushdns" (without quotes) and then in your navigator press Ctrl-F5 in bitcoin.cz page to reload from site and not from cache
nope didn't work, could it be that i'm in firefox? and your english is fine Smiley

The Ctrl-F5 works fine in Firefox. May be your ISP/DNS provider didn't update the DNS record to point to new IP.
Try puting an aleatory character in URL as GET parameters like mining.bitcoin.cz/?renew. This will be interpretated for firefox as new page, and not load it from cache

P.S.: Thanks for tell me that my english is fine. I do my best.

EDIT: URL mistake

That worked thanks for the help. now if i can only get cgminer to work again.

Stratum and getwork user counts no longer on the statistics page?   I suppose the hash rate for stratum and getwork load tells me the same thing....
