This is nothing, I have a transaction from fucking June 25th that's still "0/unconfirmed". The address I sent it to is a correct address of somebody I know. Seriously, WTF?
Maybe you should look at the link in my sig

Is there anyway to choose which block to solve?
Nope, the whole networks works on the same block until it's found, then we move on the next one. 
Looks like [Tycho] fixed the issue with at least DB payouts. He forgot to 'Save Settings' on bitcoind restarts on his pool during the last maintenance.

That might be a Bitcoin client issue... Make sure your blocks are up to date (at 139758 at time of this reply) or else check the transaction on Blockexplorer with either your sending or receiving address.

There's a patch to include your own non-fee blocks for bitcoind I was just told about.
That would probably make more sense for Tycho vs. upping the limit of non-fee blocks since that opens up someone to abuse/spam non-fee transactions.
Probably need to talk to Tycho about implementing/patching on his pool.

Happened to me too, seems Tycho doesnt want to pay fees.
Or, it could be that transactions that get fired off after a block has been completed get cast "into the void" and not part of deepbits own block solution? Something like that?

Maybe you should complain to pools that are raking in the BTC in pool fees but paying 0 transaction fees when sending out payments to users.
I sent an email of course.
Thankfully, sometime during the wee hours of the morning, my payment from yesterday got confirmed. But it took something like 20 hours.
My daily payment for "today" seems to be doing the same thing. I think something strange is going on over at Deepbit wrt. to daily payments. I don't think they're intentionally withholding. I think it's some kind of odd bug somewhere in the hash between transactions, blocks, and clients.
My hunch is that if you get paid and your client isn't up and running when the payment occurs, you get cast into the void of payments that take forever.

i happen to have the same problem with a deepbit transfer with now more than 12 hours.
i'm on block #139544 .

OK, 5 seconds after I post this, I get 1 confirm on each.

Not me, still unconfirmed, and my client is fully updated to (currently block 139537 now). Here's the transaction, btw:

I have 2 transactions stuck in 0/unconfirmed.
1 receiving, and 1 sending. I see both of them in "Low Priority" at bitcoincharts.
I've never had this happen before, not for several hours like this. Did all the pools, just today, stop accepting TX's with no fee?

You're assuming DB uses the same bitcoind as the bitcoind that [Tycho] issues payments. I highly doubt they are the same and if it is, that's a huge security risk as far as setting up pools and issuing payments to pool members. [Tycho] has already confirmed that he only keeps a 'minimal' amount of BTC's on-hand for payments so I'm sure he's running at least a few different wallets/bitcoind's.
I never thought about it that wayBut it's still strange, he could use a modified bitcoind that accepts all tx's from his node processing payments
There's a reason he doesn't do that, I must forget something
For the OP, it won't show up in Blockexplorer yet. OP verified it's still an unconfirmed transaction (TX) via http://bitcoincharts.com/bitcoin/ (which is down right now). He has all the blocks on his client I believe.
Sorry I didn't read post#8 carefully Deepbit is a pool. Is it really smart to refuse its own tx's?

Did you check your transaction in blockexplorer? The link is the date column in the Deepbit payments page
You have all the 139497 blocks? If so, you should contact them

I'm not seeing anything sent in blockexplorer to my address. On bitcoincharts I was able to see it a while back under "low priority" the site is down for maintenance apparently atm.
I've sent Tycho a PM about another issue (on the db forum sticky) I guess I should add this too.
A payment FROM Deepbit is unconfirmed?
As they put payments in the blocks they find, it's kinda weird...

On the other hand, nobody mining new bitcoins necessarily needs to accept the transactions and include them in the new block being created. The transaction fee is therefore an incentive on the part of the bitcoin user to make sure that a particular transaction will get included into the next block which is generated.
Basically, it's up to the people/pools in determining which TX's are accepted and put into the new blocks as they are found. As you've noticed, those people/pools have been ignoring the low-priority/no-fee ones lately.

Check the 'Transactions' column.

Yup, and still unconfirmed. Going on 6 1/2 hours now. Guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow (as per post above).
