Having serious problems connecting to nova pool. Did as site instructed but get no connection. And I guess i am not clever enough to figure out how to solo for NVC
February 11, 2013, 08:11:05 PM
ok, ill try once again.
solo mining 4500kh/s with cgminer -E 1
/edit:
blocks being found,
solution is public, 4848 blocks and 249097.89 coins, February 12, 2013, 02:09:34 AM
/edit2:
pool works again, noticed some bugs fixed also.

There is a -blocknotify=/path/to/your/script.sh option, you can use it instead of blkmond. script.sh will be executed for each new block event.

I have successfully mined a block using getwork.
I am now testing artforz's fork of pushpool

Looks like it either has problem with cgminer, or it has problem with getwork for solo mining. Blocks are being rejected due to wrong hash submitted via getwork. Balthazar, are you sure that getwork is properly supported? Have you tested with cgminer?
I think that it's result of 120s expire time, which is default value for cgminer and hard-coded value for reaper. I seen people which mined it at 4-8 mh/s... Of course, they got stales, but stales rate not so dramatic. There is no magic. 
P.S. Tested it with reaper at diff 0.0004, got almost 100% of stales... Then I switched to cgminer with -E 1 and got "only" 55% stales at this difficulty.
P.P.S. Target is 6 blocks per hour (like PPC and Bitcoin), so situation will normalize in near future.

cgminer/bfgminer option -E =120 change on 1
February 11, 2013, 07:21:35 PM
There are only one "problem" - difficulty is high and growing.
I believe it is the only problem for You . I have great ISP, I'm close to Russia, i have a lot of hashpower.
impossible to mine.
even 20 hours ago, with lower diff and 9 connections, i was finding blocks one by one, but all rejected for no reason, not stales.
I have no idea why only in russia blocks are not rejected.

Hey smoothie, are you going to recruit Luke to 51% this latest PutinCoin?
Why? LOL
no fun with no one getting scammed right?

It's protected with automatic checkpoints same as ppcoin.

Why would I be butt hurt about a coin
Because it's usual action in your case. You have nothing to say, only emotions. and was obivously premined before public release
1) Tell a lie 2) If someone asks proof, try to say him how it's obvious.
3)
4) Profit.
P.S. I have nothing against trolls, but you should to try do your work better.
LOL right NVC was announced ahead of time right? Which means no premine? Don't make me laugh.
Oh and you think this is trolling? LOL...I haven't even started little boy.
You still haven't shown why I would be butt hurt. I think it's humorous that NVC was added before PPC to the BTC-e exchange even based on broken code lol.
This is the equivalent of bankers scratching politician's backs in the real world. It's not what you know, it is who you know. Obviously you are good friends with the owners of btc-e. Good for you.
It doesnt remove the joke of NVC added before PPC and NVC not having a publicly available launch date prior to starting the chain...which equal premine lol...
So fail...lol so fail...

For the record, I'm not trolling your PPC fork. Now that I understand it better, it seems like both an improved LTC and PPC at the same time. Why not combine the best of 2 coins in one?

LOL you brought NVC,
They brought BITCOINs to EXCHANGE,
You therefore brought CHANGE.
No butt hurt here. Why would I be butt hurt about a coin that is broken but added to an exchange and was obivously premined before public release?
LOLzzz!

A strange thing to do, release a coin that cannot be mined right now and have it available on the exchange.
If it is unminable then how does BTC-E have Novacoins then?
How did they mine or get them?
Does this sound like a way to make people spend their Bitcoins buying them as they cannot be mined?
This are just questions and I have no opinion either way, just speculation.

Balthazar released it yesterday on the network during which time some russians mined 200,000 or so coins, then today when it was added to BTC-e everyone started trying to mine it. Because of the retarget algorithm stale rate even solo mining right now is extremely high (getwork takes forever, so a lot of people's hashes are useless).
see this thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/novacoin-scrypt-pow-pos-hybrid-114712
Right now it's a lot of solo miners fighting amongst each other to get as many blocks before the difficulty heads into the double digit range. People are still getting blocks, but only those with massive hash rates because getwork takes so long. It's the same problem with every alt coin release that doesn't have a suitable difficulty adjustment algorithm.
Sadly what is happening right now is basically a premine amongst the parties who have the greatest hash rates, since the probability is that they will obtain the majority of the blocks
The russians have it right

not the greatest hashrate, the closest location to others that started it first.
i have quite better pings to russia [also east europe] than most of the world, and have like 4500kh power - cant mine, no solo, no pooled.
