dont sweat $10-$12

Current minimal threshold is 0.05 - no way to change it to be smaller.

good god..... CHANGE the threshold level!

With the exchange rate and increasing difficulty, you could have a shot at getting Slush to lower the minimum threshold. How much do you have in there anyway and how long would it take you to mine to 0.05?

No, You must Mine until it goes over

there has to be a way to get my coins below the threshold besides mine until it goes over.

From the website 

So one worker for each rig if the miner program supports all the GPUs in that rig at one time or one for each miner program if you have to run more then one per a rig to support all the GPUs at one time.

One for each each rig/miner means you can see if one is playing up.

Try stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333 instead of api-stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333

They resolve to the same ip, but I dont know if slush has anything else going on in the background, could be server load maybe.

Mine to the send threshold. Make sure to put the send threshold up first then when you're past 0.05, do whatever you're doing with your miner and put it back down to cash out.

I was reading this anti hopping futures that we have. I have the next question. What about miners that runs at 5 or less mhesh/s. I'm running one 1,2 one 4,8 and one 7,2. Am I affected because of them? They are CPU's and they are running on free power. Well I'm not paying it so it is "free".

no, no, I'm not upset as I completely understand the logic behind it and as I said in the long run I earn exactly what I would expect. Having said that, I do realise, that as difficulty increases even gh/s miner will mine less & then even less than less.

btw if the round lasted really short and there would be only one share submitted in the whole pool in that round and if that share was mine, then I would earn 49.xxx BTC for that round and would send a bottle of very good wine to slush.

my point is: 1gh/s rig will mine about 838 diff1 shares/h = 0.23... shares/s ~= 1 in 4 chance rig will submit a share in that 1 s. if round lasts 2 seconds then we would have approx. 50% chance that rig will submit a share in that time. since network latency is about 20-50 ms depending on your location (20ms in internet terms is very good indeed) and can jump to 80ms, then your chances of submitting a share are much lower because of round trip delay (which is 2x latency) and processing time ( cgminer, or, network card, router with nat, adsl etc, which I cannot measure but would estimate to be another 20ms ) then my 2 second round allows for 1.8s of hash finding or even less. this is where this is painful.

i understand your argument that I could be lucky and submit 3 shares in those 2 seconds by pure luck, but the latency bias still remains.

on the other hand Jeff running his asic miner on diff1 (he should not do it, but there is no way to stop him) with 68 gh/s, is submitting 15 shares / s so he has and extra edge in this situation. above the obvious gh/s advantage.

dialling back share difficulty to 1/2 or 1/4 is probably also not such a good idea. delaying payoff till more than one round is completed who's combined duration is bigger than some threshold is also probably not such a good idea....

Cheers!

And this continues on and on.... What am i doing wrong ?

Thats the thing. The lowest setting for payout is .05 . I have below that and want to get my coins.

It doesn't matter... Even if you just put in 1 or something as that. If someone knows that password(and username) the only thing it can do is to mine for you...

change the threshold

Is there anyway to get my remaining balance of BTC and NMC sent to my addresses? They are below the send threshold.

A newbie question: When I got a first pool worker the password was assigned to it automatically. When I add another worker - do I use the same password or should it be different one? Does this matter?

Thanks!

I'd suggest you may want a separate machine for querying statistics which caches them locally and doesn't query the database each time.

Well none would ba upset if he/she got a share in. I didn't but one's who did are smiling...

EDIT:

Did you consider adding NMC to Stratum? Or is this imposible?
