Good service mux - So the rig i lease had a card go down - i contacted the owner and he confirmed that a card went down and that he would refund me the difference in what i paid for and what he delivered - is this something he can do or do you need to do this - I have the conversation if you need it.
Also there should be a way to send support tickets without having to reply to this thread

How long does it take to receive the confirmation email after registering? It has been a few hours now..
This^ I am still awaiting my email. I signed up with the username "thewalkingglitch" if it helps.
make sure to check spam folder...a lot of people seem to be having issues with this
Nope, my email has not received anything in the past few hours.
EDIT: I should add, I use my own email, so I set the rules for the spam folder, and this wouldn't show up in the spam folder anyways, defense right now is an entropy-check on the content, and a manual blacklist of senders and keyword searches through the content, of which I have 1 sender blocked.
Also, as the above should imply, I know what I am doing, so it is not misconfigured either.
haha fair enough...maybe try a different email? I had a msg go through on my yahoo address.
I don't feel like using a different username, and I don't want to connect yet another thing with my gmail which I am in the process of moving away from along with all other google products before I get scroogled. (Not I'm not a microshit fanboy either, I'm not a fan of being micro-shafted

Great service, thanks to Mux. When you start charging, are there any plans on advertising for this? I can't help but feel that the popularity on the forum here is drawing the leasing crowd and not the renting crowd. Maybe I'm wrong on that, but I see this quickly getting to a ultra competitive venture amongst a very large crowd of folks without a healthy group of speculators fueling it.
Either way, the only harm it's currently doing to simply have a rig available is that I effectively can't set a failover for my primary "fallback" pool, so I certainly can't complain! Either way, I'd love to hear your thoughts on how this could continue to grow and prosper.

I'm not sure if you can add multiple --failover-only parameters to the command line, but if you start CGMiner by passing a .conf file rather than passing everything as command line arguments, you can have as many failover pools as you like. I currently have 12 in my conf files, primarily for ease of switching between coins during the day but also so that I'm assured my rigs will always be productive.
Here's a good guide: http://www.lurkmore.com/wiki/Cgminer.conf
Thanks for the tip! I've shied away from .conf files for too long now, but this gives me the first good reason to man up and learn the ins and outs. I'm putting together another couple rigs and I'd like to use BAMT, which I believe doesn't use command line, so this'll be a good learning experience.

Here's a good guide: http://www.lurkmore.com/wiki/Cgminer.conf
You can enter as many pools as you want into the appropriate section of the file, and CGMiner will use them in the priority entered. Should you want to switch to a different pool, you can simply press "P" -> "S" from the CGMiner interface and choose which pool to switch to. It will then become priority 0 until CGMiner is restarted.

Also the pool's vardiff is sending difficulty 1024 work for a 0.xxxx difficulty coin which is a recipe for failure.
Me and the roommate had a chuckle at that one
It does make you wonder. I have a different rig where the pool's vardiff implementation is setting the required work difficulty as high as 4K+ for a difficulty 9 coin
I thought it might be something off in the CGMiner display, but nope:

Ouch.

Same here, 3MH/s listed.
Question on the cgminer stuff. Can I have my own failover in place for the times its not rented? Based on the how-to it looks like that would be fine but I didn't see it addresses anywhere.
Thanks

Got my 3 MH rig up and available for rent! Extremely stable and no downtime in months.
January 29, 2014, 10:01:08 PM
To manifest23 (rig #33):
I couldn't find you under that name on the forum but rig 33 is currently getting something close to 50% rejects and keeps failing over onto my backup pool. I have double checked the rig itself but it is completely stable on middlecoin (my backup pool) so I have to conclude that it is a problem with your pool. You may want to check into this.

Rejects are still rather high. Seems like the block speed of whatever you are mining is super short, but I'm not constantly failing over anymore.
Happy mining!

This is a good idea, but am I the only one that thinks the price is a little high ?

If rig rental rates weren't higher than could be obtained by straight mining, then there wouldn't be any incentive to make them available for rent. There's risk on both sides of the equation, and the market seems to be doing a good job of sorting out a reasonable rent. If rates are too high then the rigs won't be rented. If they're too low then there's no incentive to rent them out. Somewhere in the middle is the equilibrium of supply and demand.
You also have to keep in mind that a lot of the rented rigs aren't being used to mine whatever's top of the list at CoinWarz or wherever. If someone wants to accumulate a stash of a fairly recently launched coin, and it's not on any exchanges yet, then the only way to accomplish it is to mine them. Plenty of people who don't have the time / space / funds / electrical capacity to run expensive rigs 24/7, so this marketplace lets them decide if they want to speculate on leasing someone else's equipment for a while.
Essentially the going rate will end up being normal mining returns + speculative premium. That speculative premium is what supply and demand is sorting out as we speak.
Good point... +1

There needs to be more in the FAQ
what do I need to put in pool url, is that the stratum info? Is pool login/password for the worker?
what do I need to put in pool url, is that the stratum info? Is pool login/password for the worker?
Yes. So:
URL: stratum+tcp://poolurl:port
Login: worker name, usually in the format login.worker#
Password: worker password
