I am in talks with someone who is trying to setup a website where you can buy Steam game codes and other game-related stuff with ESM. I think that's a much bigger than a pool lottery, that and updated graphics of course!
yes this is whats going to make this coin work..something of this nature. but first we have to have miners to back the network and second we have to be on an exchange for liquidity and have some people wanting to buy, which is why we do the giveaways and things to get miners mining and more people interested

Yes, that will be much bigger than a pool lottery, as it give people the options to really use their ESM coins, but before people will use those games they first need to be motivated to mine at ESM? So then a big lottory can help boosting NEW minners. Releasing games is one thing, and people will read it and continue reading other stuff. Having a big lottory create new miners, new people that are interested in the coin but the lottory really needs to be big!!! around 1BTC or so. If every miner give a amount of coins that can be equal to 0.01BTC then you need 100 miner to achieve this. Make a deal with the mining pool so that they support this lottory too, as they will see a increase in new miners (meaning coin will be worth more).

Why not make this permanent on the pools instead of a one time event?
Like a random jackpot independant from the worker's hasrate, plus one based on the shares someone had during a day (or something like that)? So it's interesting for small ppl like me but bigger miners are interested too?

this is correct, but this just means we as a community are gona have to help the dev out and support and promote this coin. we could start a faucet and a few other things
this is better for the coin in the long run, because no 1 person is holding a huge bag that they can dump whenever they feel like

True, but a promotion must be smart, look, you have promotions like giveaway, giveaway 1000 coins, people that already own that coin will put their wallet number, but NO NEW miners!!!
I've a idea for OGC (what of course also can apply for ESM -as i'm pretty big mining it
) why not organize a jackpot? Give people a big amount of coins and they need to follow the following rules.1. They need to mine at least 5 hours a day for 2 weeks (Hashrate doesn't matter)
This support the coin and the mining pool should support us with x number of coins that they earn more because of this promotion.
2. If you completed the first rule then you can put your wallet number on the subject and then a live jackpot lottory will be done and winner takes it all.
This is not a bad idea. PM me if you get the details of this hashed out and we could maybe put something together, I'd me more than willing to donate to the prize pool. I also wanted to let you guys know that when I get home in a few hours I am going to increase the amount on the giveaway thread from 10 to 20 and revive that thread. If you want to increase the amount given away, feel free to PM me.

Did that, no effect.
Restarted wallet, still getting "no block source available".

My wallet is not synching... I assume, this is normal when a new wallet is not very common?
Try running 'addnode 176.250.66.46 add' in your debug window console.

The premine here was slight and accidental. I did not get any of the premined coined. Essentially we released a bad wallet file and someone downloaded the source code and compiled themselves a good version of the wallet. At least, this is what we think happened. I currently have a little over 4000 ESM, and I've been mining at over 1500 KH/s for days. Anyway, I wanted to let you guys know we should be releasing a new version of the client soon with updated graphics and icons!

ogc had alot of issues at start and im pretty sure it was heavilly premined which is why its gone to nothing in value once it hit an exchange. i feel this coin has had a much fairer start and would have a better chance honestly
plus ogc devs dissapeared once they got their coins and could dump them on an exchange..our dev seems to actually care about this coin. its not getting much support rite now but we need to promote it and get more people mining for it to have a chance. im down to donate some esm for giveaways and whatnot, we need to start promoting this to get the hashrate above 50mh/s

Heavilly premined,mmm, it was premined as the most other coins, 1% or 1.5M coins, some of them already went for giveaway. ESM has the problem that nothing is premine, so it is very difficult to promote this one, anyway i'm mining ESM because i believe it can add value to the market and i also want to promote ESM. There are too many coins and you need to spend a lot of time to make a difference in the market place that is why i suggest somekind of work together, if ESM creates a game or so then also add OGC as payment option, and ofcourse the other way around if OGC is able to sign a deal with one customer then we will also add ESM (if the CEO of ESM agree ofcourse).

Hi all...
I have a wierd behaviour: I was able to connect to luckyminer's pool for a few seconds and got registered (0.02xxx unconfirmed ESM). cgminer still runs, but neither luckyminers pool nor digipool register mynotebook is doing something.
Questions:
1) is --scrypt parameter mandatory, when I use a normal PC (have a gaming PC at home, still only one GFX, no ASIC hardware)?
2) what do i do to evaluate why my mining worker is not showing up on both pools?
Thank you!

yes --scrypt is mandatory for all scrypt based mining
if your kh/s is moving and you are getting accepteds in cgminer than it is working

Also, if I might add, OGC was sort of developed specifically for gambling, not for competitive video games or video games at all.

I've started mining this one too
Just wondering, we have OGC (OnlineGamingCoin) and we have ESM (eSportsMoney), if it is not good to combine efforts for example when we are trying to create games, reduce cost for both coins. Promote each other and make each other bigger and bigger.

I've hosted a block explorer at: http://176.250.66.46:2750/
It's a temporary address for now, I'll set up a dynamic DNS address soon. (I don't have a static IP).
My ESM client is port forwarded, so you should also be able to add the node 176.250.66.46
