I changed the function at launch to just give me 5888 coins. Found two blocks, both rejected by the network. Nope, can't cheat it this way. 
To be fair, I found a whole lot of blocks at launch, all rejected by network...

this idiot uses a simple random number generator to determie block rewards. guess what happens when i remove that and just return max block reward instead?
i will be posting an altered client that gets 5k coin rewards every time, in the next hour or so. this coin is trash and needs to die.

Actually that doesn't look possible:
Code:
const char* cseed = prevHash.ToString().substr(8,7).c_str();
long seed = hex2long(cseed);
int rand = generateMTRandom(seed, 100000);
if(rand > 30000 && rand < 35001)
nSubsidy = 188 * COIN;
else if(rand > 70000 && rand < 71001)
nSubsidy = 588 * COIN;
else if(rand > 50000 && rand < 50011)
nSubsidy = 5888 * COIN;
The seed is based on the previous hash, hence it might be open to some kind of attacks, but "just changing the function" should not work.
Unless he botched badly block verification, of course.
glad it got tested

Why wouldn't this work? I'd try it but don't want to screw around trying to compile this on Windows.
Code:
int static generateMTRandom(unsigned int s, int range)
{
random::mt19937 gen(s);
random::uniform_int_distribution<> dist(1, range);
// return dist(gen);
return 50001;
}

Redirects here but it's a 404 :/http://www.legitcoinage.com/?p=27
In the case of the p2pool:
cgminer --scrypt -o next.afraid.org:8116 -u yourLKYaddress -p . --queue 0 -s 1
statistics available here: http://next.afraid.org:8116. This pool use a PPLNS payout scheme, and is stratum enabled.
The PPLNS windows is set to 1 hour, so you will get the expected payout after only a few blocks found. Anyway, the default configuration is around 24H. You have to mine days and night to reach the expected value, not fair at all...
This server is always as effective, no orphan, and the payout is there. If you are looking for a reliable pool, it is there.
As far as I'm concerned, this server: next.afraid.org:8116 is fine. If you are looking for a pool, this is the right one.
Block explorer enabled on the second node: pool.afraid.org:8116
Server fully reliable and well connected - no orphan.
By the looks of it, http://lky.allpoolz.com has it six 188 coin blocks so far.
nice, did you get any 588 blocks?
i got one

Found our first few blocks! Need some more hash power though.
Feel free to point your miners at my pool, link in signature.

And how is this refflected in payouts?The blocks contains 88 coins, this is the result of a buggy software...

Guys just wondering how serious this coin is?
Will it get on any exchange and can anyone estimate it's value for me.

The value is over 9000 already.
So i can swap my 100 lky for 900000 usd
Because I be willing to take much less than that.
I would happily swap 100 for 2 ltc

I like how it has a chain explorer. Now it just needs a stats page. I only just started mining, but I'll donate 200 LKY to anyone who can make one.
