The concept behind this coin is one that may take longer than most miners are willing to hold out for. It has been said numerous times by many others in this thread.

Patience is the key to building great relationships. Craftcoin is a good example of a direction this coin could take, provided we can find the right "game" for Gamecoin.

Though if you are following Craftcoin right now you can see that it had a great plan and seemed to be going well, but alas the big pump and dump miners came along and ruined the difficulty and it is in a similar boat as BTE; high difficulty and no hashing. At the peak of the hash Craftcoin saw 1.5 Gh/s now it is at 62 Mh/s and falling.

For a coin to progress it needs more than just community support, it needs a good set of parameters that will withstand difficulty swings, 51% attacks, etc.

This coin has a cool concept, we just need someone to take over this project. If someone can lift this project up, I'm willing to start promoting it and so on, but now it seems a bit pointless

We are interested in continued support. If you can provide a block explorer that is going to stay up, then yes, please.

There is/was a p2pool set up http://gme.p2pool.nl/stats/, but at this low difficulty it is unnecessary. Besides it is down for now along with their main explorers.

I still have a CPU pointed at GME.

With difficulty at 0.00816922, I'm getting a few blocks per hour.

Probably because there isn't much hype or support left for this coin. Yes the developers are online from time to time, but I think that this coin has seen better days. I sent a PM, last week, to jayo but no response.

I take it you are the 1 other person besides myself that is still keeping this coin alive.

tyrion70's blog which is linked in the first post in order to download the Windows QT wallet is currently displaying the following:

If anyone needs the Windows QT Wallet, here is a mirror of the archive:

Nice easy 0.00328474 difficulty as I type this. Wink


Or you can use this direct link that still works.

You can use this one that I just set up:

http://gmeblockexplorer.is-very-good.org/block_crawler.php

It's not as good as tyrion's block explorer but it's better than nothing.  Wink

Thanks, it is always nice to have a back-up.

Just remember, as I've said several times in the previous thread.

Your wallet will claim that it is out of sync with 350k blocks required. Just ignore that. All it means is someone on the network has the LITECOIN blockchain instead of the proper GameCoin blockchain they likely manually placed it there in an attempt to hurt the coin. Your wallet see's that there are a possible 350k blocks and lists your wallet as out of sync. However will not download the incorrect chain.

While you are "out of sync" you're wallet is actually fully up to date, and functional. You are able to send, receive, and mine.

This problem should resolve itself later on down the road as more check points are hit and the person(s) with the incorrect blockchain fix, update, or close their client.


In short, just ignore wallet being out of sync. The network and current checkpoints make it so your client will not download the incorrect blockchain. Unless you are connected to a single node where the person operating the node changes the blockchain then you may experience problems until you get off of that node and re-download the blockchain.


Just a little FYI for those that download the wallet and try to mine for themselves. The wallet sync issue is not real.

Unfortunately adding this node didn't help at all. I have linux and windows wallet, none of them is able to connect. My last downloaded block was 33382.
