Agreed. Error messages have stopped so far. CPU usage is down a bit. Number of connections is way up, and so forth.

Nice job, Dev. Thanks!

Edit: Update - found a block running 1.0.4 now, so there's that too.     

Hi everybody!!!

New Build 1.0.4 is available to download at SourceForge:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/pascalcoin


This is a VERY IMPORTANT BUILD:

Build 1.0.4.0 - 2016-09-16
--------------------------
- IMPORTANT: Introducing net protocol changes: Must update!
- More and more and more stable
- Prevents "Alone in the world" if everybody is updated ;-)
- Invalid local time detector with corrections
- IP nodes configurator

Also, all source code is at GitHub:
https://github.com/PascalCoin/PascalCoin

How does this work ?

Yep, same here.

For everyone wondering about the Vork usernames, that's me. Rented quite a few servers.

As for the time messages, if you're still connected and mining fine, you aren't the one with a time issue, it just means that a node with a time issue connected to you.

Nodes I have problem with

45.32.17.96
45.32.67.33
45.32.87.145
45.32.94.55
45.63.85.13
45.63.87.64
45.63.87.127
45.63.87.186
45.63.87.248
45.76.107.16
104.238.140.120
108.61.126.224
108.61.187.13
108.61.207.220

always the same !

Is there a high chance that Vork's miner are the nodes that aren't on the good time frame ?!?
So everyone get's rejected ok blacklisted since he controlled the whole network with more than 50% ?

I think it's Vorksholk: https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/vorksholk-51756

I have a lot Pascals already... I think that would be good the hashpower not to be in a persons hands, but some new miners to join us...
(i don't even now if there is a 51% attack danger for this coin - probably there is).

On the contrary if it's a pool that would be great news!

Today, a miner called "Vork_..." (or perhaps multiple miners with same name) are winning a lot of blocks... I don't know who is!
Perhaps a pool?


That's not possible. Simply mine and wait for good luck.

I can see that someone gets 80% of all coins...
This is not healthy
Dev is it possible to put a limit on mining per ip ?

The time error messages appear to have become much more frequent today. I got these within minutes of miner startup:

There is a problem with the node time that you'll need to fix.... I received 33 messages about the time not being right, while before none... Is it a user with a lot of node trying to exclude us ?!?
And my time is right on my 3 miners, is it set by my time zone.

And there is "Vork" mining nealry 50% of the blocks with all his miner !!

Cool, CryptoTrout's bid = Flowerpots bid + x?  

Glad for your continuing efforts.

By the way, while up to you, possibly consider adding a BTC donation address to the opening post, not uncommon for OPs.

On the prior topic, just as additional info:

The wrong-time node's IP address keeps changing, unless it is more than one:

First it corresponds in IP-geolocation to New Jersey, then Japan, then California.  Maybe someone is switching proxies, VPN, or VPS?  Odd.

Thanks for your comments, will study to introduce this, but now I will introduce Build 1.0.4 with other more important and urgent corrected bugs.

Possible fix to solve the blacklisting threat messages (which I get too, despite my time being exactly accurate):

If a non-majority of nodes have a time utterly contrary to reliable online servers (e.g. an API call to http://www.timeapi.org/ ), only send threatening messages to the problematical node, not to innocent computers like mine.

I get the threatening message because someone's computer has a time 5 hours behind mine.  Either they are in Hawaii (compared to my CST time zone) without time zones being properly adjusted for, or else their time is just plain wrong even for their time zone.  But my computer has the correct time, synchronized by Windows 10 with time.windows.com

Right now, the threatening message's receipt and wording is as if my computer would be assumed inaccurate when there is just one node giving out false info, not mine.

(I'm just aiming to give constructive criticism, despite quite happy with PascalCoin's potential overall).

WTS @ .00005 BTC/Pascal

I'm just unlucky I think, and yes. You get 5 accounts every time you mine a block.

So I'm basically wasting electricity here lol
Where do I see my address ? Is it the account number?
