Your pool will see a lot of pool hoppers. You should maybe switch to a pay per share variant to prevent this.

OK, we changed now the PPLNS payout system, because we do not like to support pool hoppers.
I read here https://bitcoil.co.il/pool_summary.pdf the rating of Meni Rosenfeld and I agree with his opinion.

We have started a championship:
On 4.11.2012 (one year after launch) the top 3 miners in our life time share statistic will win a holiday package on Koh Samui (Thailand) which covers following services:

Isn't a prize after 1 year a little long, especially for something like Bitcoin mining/pools ?
Look at what has happened to BTC and mining in that much time!

I am looking for long term miners and not for pool hoppers.
So I think it is the right thing to do to attract miners for long term mining.

The Hype is over, so come down to earth again.  Wink
To me it looks like, everybody want to become a millionaire within a few month by mining for BitCoins?
This is unrealistic!
We all need to come back to earth and calculate LONG TERM...then nobody will be disappointed...

Welcome Eckmar

Good to see.
Too many pools are started fur "fun" or to "play with the sofware". many have come and gone over the last 6 months
We need more that actually commit to the longterm and with an understanding of what that actually means Smiley
good luck in your venture,
Graeme

There's a good link for analysis.

Do you have a JSON feed running for your pool yet ?

So Pay-per-last-N-shares (PPLNS) is better? Or did I got something wrong?

JSON Interface is not yet implemented but something on the "to do" list...

Is Pay-per-last-N-shares (PPLNS) a better way to pay out?

After reading, I think it is, but I am not 100% sure...

What is your opinion?

Can you clarify on your payout method ?

"use proportional round scoring"

Is this proportional (my shares/all shares*50=reward) or score (such as Slush) ?

We are using my shares/all shares*50=reward method, because we do not generate any scores...

I am not familiar with the score system from Slush.
Is there any advantage to use this score system?
Is it more fair?

Sunny regards,  Grin

We have set up a new mixed mining poolserver for BTC (BitCoin) and NMC (NameCoin) under the address:

https://miner.ecki.net:444

You will mine with the same hashes for BitCoins AND NameCoins at the same time with our mixed mining poolserver. The poolserver does support CPU mining (LTC) on a different port as well.

This poolserver is operated by Ecki Co LTD at Koh Samui in Thailand.
More information about us is available at http://www.ecki.net.

We have started a championship:
On 4.11.2012 (one year after launch) the top 3 miners in our life time share statistic will win a holiday package on Koh Samui (Thailand) which covers following services:
1.) 3-1 weeks free accommodation on Koh Samui (Thailand)
2.) 3-1 weeks of free food (2 hot meals per day from Mo-Fr)
3.) 3-1 weeks of free laundry
4.) 3-1 weeks free Internet access over WiFi 54 Mb/s behind 20/5 Mb/s fibre optic line
5.) Pick up service to and from Samui airport

The travelling costs are NOT part of this prize.

The holiday package could be taken after 4th of November 2012.

Again, the first prize is 3 weeks, the second prize 2 weeks and the third prize is 1 week of this package.

Happy mining!  Grin

Sunny regards from the island,

edit: Now we have for our European miners a proxy server running at eu-proxy.ecki.net (clients only!).
edit2: Moved our European pool-server now to a better hardware.

edit3: Now we have another championship with our build in game (You have to guess the last digit of the next found block (NMC or BTC) to win a point, championship is running from 1.May 2012 till 30.April 2013). You need to be bronze member to participate on the game...
edit 4: Added Stratum protocol support on port 3333 with variable difficulty. Right now 12 Avalons are mining in the pool.
