I say we just call it X-11. Sounds like a top secret project or something. Or we could just call it CPUcoin 
Great idea! You win the 1000XCO prize. I bought X11coin.com and I'll point everything over later. What's your X-11 address?

Sweet! Totally like this lottery mining thing! Hey chaositec, if you haven't made the payout yet could you split my winnings among everyone who has been mining there for any reasonable length of time? Getting a pretty high hash rate for this pool and I feel like I'm already hogging the coins! 
btw, maybe we should continue pool specific stuff in the lotterymining pool posting: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.4673079 January 28, 2014, 12:23:42 PM
We're decided we're going to be changing the name of XCoin to something else. It's already kind of confusing to search for XCoin on Google and we want to differentiate ourselves from the other company using the name.
We thought it might be fun to actually let the community suggest the future name for XCoin. Any ideas?
Ps. The blockchain will stay intact, and it's merely a domain name change, some strings in the client, and the images.
Ps2. The addresses will still start with X, so keep that in mind for the suggestions
The winner gets 1000XCO! Let the competition begin.

well thinking on the theme that the transactions are going to be anonymous -ish
pseudocoin
incocoin
vcoin

a week or so ago, I updated my Ubuntu to the latest, then set up mining and my other stuff, but it was unstable and finally crashed! LOL. So the last two days I've been doing a fresh install then reinstalling all my programs, ugh! Finally got it running (cross my fingers) smoothly!
So anyone know how hard it is to get on coinwarz? LOL, I like to see the charts and see how difficult, etc... the coins are currently to mine!
Well, today is the big LOTTERY at http://xco.lotterymining.com! You need to be actively mining to participate, so make sure you are! The money is rolling in steady now too!
BTW, I'm just a client who wants to see our pool grow, nothing more!

So, blacksuit was the winner...
i made a video on exactly how it was done, each person got 1 ticket per active day...
the more ppl that mine, the bigger the lottery pool is going to be...

Something weird going on with lottery mining, had been mining at a block for around two hours, block finally solved in which I had contributed around a fifth of all the shares including solving the block but didn't get a payout. nothing in unconfirmed, what gives?
edit: Nevermind, finally came through!
edit: Nevermind, finally came through!
i had the payout cronjob run every 5 minutes, changed it to every 1 minute, so you should see it faster now
been 5 blocks, many hours have past but haven't gotten any more payouts again.
cronjob got stuck...
when that happens it will stop running, and i have to check up on it, then fix whatever is the problem, and do a forced run of it.. so that happens sometimes
but everything is accounted for so when the script is run again it will make sure to credit you the correct amount.

You're right, due to the algorithm being unique (at least for now), it cant' be picked by multipools with current protocol.
Though with relatively small change of protocol and some universal miner that can do several coin types (sha/scrypt/scrypt-jane/prime/quark/....) that would be possible, but as scrypt coins are now sort of majority in altcoins, I think it is not worth the effort for many to create such an universal miner.
It still leaves the coin a bit vulnerable to sudden spikes, like now.
The diff is supposed to go from 6.1 to 0.7, pretty big downspike (because of the initial rush fading), but goes actually only to 1.5 because of maximal adjustment is 4-times larger or smaller. This leaves us with 2x supposed difficulty for 2 more days ....
In the future there could be more spikes (if you publish a new cool feature or otherwise ignite some interest, people will rush in, mine until the diff skyrockets and then maybe many of them leaves once the hype fades, many of the rest leaving too when the coin becomes too hard to mine, leaving only the core miner stuck with difficulty 10-20 times of what it should be)
This coins has quite a potential for this due to new unique algorithms, so is could be easily hyped ... possibly hyped to death
