Oh, best to hold fire on the above - looks like the new pool is offline.

Ok, fixed some bugs with the temporary NOMP pool I've set up, looks like its counting shares now!
Stats page is at http://www.slimcoin.club:8081/, stratum port is 41680.
I don't have the hash power to mine a block anymore, so not sure if it works!
First other pool bounty still holds - 2.5K SLM.
First pool to hit 2MHs - 2.5K SLM.

Seems to be working OK.
I'm mining with a build of slimminer on windows in cgywin and seeing accepted shares.
Everyone can find the guide for building a working slimminer here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7090075
However, its probably best to use the slimminer repository instead of the siklon one, as there were some 'official' commits after this post I think.
Did anyone ever build a standalone windows slimminer.exe ?
A cloud mining guide for Digital Ocean can be found here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.7138570
Again, its probably best to use the 'official' slimminer repository to compile from.
Going to try and get it mining on an Ubuntu 14.04 instance at https://www.vultr.com/?ref=6812809 - where anyone can get a free $5 1 x CPU cloud instance - if folks want to help test the new pool.
Mix-and-match my guides from here: http://boolberry.blue/boolberry-cpu-cloud-mining-guide.php - which should get it working for the new NOMP pool.
Code:
./minerd -a dcrypt -o stratum+tcp://www.slimcoin.club:41680 -u YOUR SLIMCOIN ADDRESS -p x --scantime 15 --retries -1 -t NUMBER OF THREADS

So, are these on any markets other than bter? Volume is kinda low there :\

I'm at 35k now.. will take some time..
you can grab the blockchain snapshot from https://github.com/kryptoslab/slimcoin/releases up, it goes up block 126100!
i also just finished setting up the NOMP @ stratum+tcp://www.slimcoin.club:41680, just to see what are the problems faced by pool makers. a lot of issues! particularly cos our client is an old pp fork which doesn't handle batch RPC, and I had to write a RPC proxy from scratch just for that. don't know whether it works cos i don't have that kinda hash power to claim a block, you guys can just try it out and see if it works
looks like a next todo is to port dcrypt and pob to the peercoin devel github tree.
(not claiming first pool, will help with pool setup if ocminer or any exp pool owners are using nomp)
cpu mining only is intentional

Also, zero connections (3.2.1 from climcoin.club). Any nodes?
I found peer list here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.9145085
addnode=192.3.21.71:41682
addnode=37.187.100.75:41682
addnode=203.20.114.252:41682
addnode=5.9.81.9:41682
Thanks, deadreply.
And window size is still the issue. It's not even possible to make it any smaller. So I use an external monitor for the wallet now.

Hey guys,
whats the maximum block height currently ?
We need to pool whats the maximum block height currently ?
I'm building one, but I need to download the whole blockchain before.. i'm on block 3300 now
Current number of blocks 134905
I'm at 35k now.. will take some time..
Nice that we have ocminer here. All my CPUs are in preparing mode. ^^.

I wrote a program to examine The Dcrypt Algorithm just out of curiosity. I wanted to know how much memory it uses on average. Internally in the mixing hash function it has a scratch pad that exists as multiples of 64 bytes plus the original size of the data being hashed and some fixed sized scratch pads. The variable size buffer is what is of interest because that what is supposed to fight against GPU and ASIC miners.
After hashing 100K times I got the following result for the multiple:
average 1026 <10 0.683007% <100 8.99509% <500 38.3704%
So on average the function used 65,664 bytes for the variable sized buffer but 0.68% it used less than 640 bytes.
I though this is interesting and it should be possible to see if anyone has a miner that aborts hashing if the memory size of the hash function is over a certain size.

If you could set up the pool, it would be awesome. Remember bounty for the pool is 2500 SLM if I remember correctly.
Btw, are we on page 200 yet?

Wallet window is too big (vertical size) for 768p. And yes, some laptops still have it.
Also, zero connections (3.2.1 from climcoin.club). Any nodes?

In urgent need of pool 
October 24, 2014, 04:42:55 AM
wow the diff is so high! did not find a POW Block in one Day with 50 Digital Ocean Instances.
just curious, how much is tt in terms of hash power?
honestly spoken not that much, 10-12 KH/s per instance.
At this difficulty we really need to have a working pool set-up again.
You could try cloud mining at VULTR instead. They currently provide cloud servers with (at least) x2 the cpu power per. core and more RAM.
They also accept Bitcoin - https://www.vultr.com/news/45/Now-Accepting-Bitcoin!
Did anyone try contacting sandor111 ? as they set-up the original Slimcoin NOMP based pool I think.
