A big thanks also to bumface for helping out and suggesting a few things to try before finally starting over, great support from all, thanks
i recouped you 50 utc, dont tell anybody

Anyone else notice that bumface seems to have no problem with shelling out coins when it comes to helping the community grow while he has a personal policy of not bribing the exchanges to list UTC. I think this says a lot about his character and vision for Ultracoin and it makes a lot of sense to me. If we build a community around UTC, the exchanges really won't have much of a choice if they want our business. This is how we will end up on BTC-e and ... Coinbase. Don't sweat the small stuff and stay positive! We are going to get there.
Welcome aboard, Mikebeav3r! Mine hard.
I mined too hard, killed a GPU, lol.
Might have to take the single XFX DD out of my tower and use it as a temp solution in my UTC rig, I dislike having less than 1 MH/s dedicated to this.
Like you say, it's a good community, I tried at launch to get it set up, but at the time I only had a dual XFX setup, and getting my head round the SJ thing was too much, I have been keeping an eye on it since launch though and when the rigs arrived last Monday, I did a lot more research and put one to mining this and the other to that Flappycoin, the draw of 500k - 1 mil coins per day is way too much speculation to miss out on (plus everyone involved in it is equally nice as here), UTC however looks like a coin that is pretty useful, and some nice ideas / team behind it, shall stick with these two coins for the forseable future, just hope CT can sort their little problem out in a hurry, they were a nice, easy to navigate exchange, unlike some of the others kicking around.
Shortly after I sent you the above advice, I was sitting at my computer and it shutoff all of a sudden. When it restarted, sparks and flames started to shoot out of my 7970 (this is not my mining rig). I promptly unplugged it. I'd never had a card fail that spectacularly before. I'm now all paranoid because I can't tell if anything else in there is failing as I still smell something burning despite removing the 7970. Not a good day for video cards.
