Well I'll be.  It just accepted my email address and password.   My original password which I set when first I registered.  This is at

https://max.nut2pools.com/index.php?page=login

So, I must have been trying to log in on some other page.

And I think I know which one.  If I go to

https://nut2pools.com

it does not allow me to log in using my email and password.  This page must have been where I was trying to log in to.

I suggest you make clear on this page that, in order to log in, the user must first be on the specific coin pool he is trying to access.

As for your suggestion that I keep to the ticket, there is a notification in your first email response to my original ticket inquiry, specifically stating that I am to reply not on a ticket but rather in a followup reply email, which I did.   I refrained from public mention of it on this forum for 24 hours, while awaiting your followup reply in vain.

I will accept a 50-50 share of blame if you will.  I was mistaken in trying to log in on your main page.  But that page carries no warning against doing so, and your email response was less than satisfactory.

MODERATOR(s): I do not wish to damage the reputation of someone who does not deserve it.  So, if there is some way to wipe this exchange clean, if that is what Nutnut wants, I am willing to.

And now to point 545 MH/s at maxus.nut2pools...

Hi Boraxo,

Firstly let me apologize for your difficulties but some of them could be avoided.

You have made a few posts about us so i'll do my best to address them all.... (sorry for the long post guys but the points needed addressing....)

...So I guess that nut2pools was a scam pool too.
I'm getting paid fine and the automatic withdrawal's are working great.

Goody for you, but nut2pool still has my 10 MAX and its proprietor has not gotten back to me.

For now I'm sticking to 1gh and dwarfpool.  Those pay, are anonymous, and I can readily see my progress by hitting F5.


No - we are not a scam pool. We (I) have been around longer than most. I'm am a core dev for FTC, A moderator for WDC, A dev on MPOS (the pool software that everyone uses) and channel op in the main MPOS channels among other things. My reputation means more to me than 10MAX I can assure you!

...Just so everyone knows, You can see your progress when you log in to nut2pool.

But that is exactly the problem: I *can't log in* to nut2pool.  If I try using username boraxo it tells me I need to log in with an email address.  If I try logging in with username my email address, it stops accepting keystrokes at 20 characters, so won't take my full email address.

And its owner has neither paid me (as I specifically requested, in email) nor answered my email.

It does accept more than 20 chars in the email login box i can assure you as my email address is more than 20 chars as are many users. As for the email you sent, sorry but i never received it, not sure why, i do need to look at the email system though tbh. If you responded withing the ticket i would have seen it though and replied.

Same goes for nut2pools, stay at the trusted ones!...Nut2pools have been here for quite some time...I always mine there if he provide an pool for the coin I'm currently after! And no, I'm not an owner/partner of nut2pools!

Regardless of your effervescent praise, he still has my 10 MAX, and he still hasn't paid me.  

No, i have your 9.44810492 which is why you haven't received your coins as you have set you payout threshold to 10.

Same goes for nut2pools, stay at the trusted ones!...Nut2pools have been here for quite some time...I always mine there if he provide an pool for the coin I'm currently after! And no, I'm not an owner/partner of nut2pools!

Regardless of your effervescent praise, he still has my 10 MAX, and he still hasn't paid me. 

However, I see by the notice on his front page that he is shutting down the pool on Sunday February 23rd and will pay everybody then.

What pool are you talking about?

max.nut2pools.com

Ah--sorry.  That notice is on the FTC pool front page https://ftc.nut2pools.com/

Perhaps it is telling that the FTC pool front page does not show a MAX pool.

And he still has neither paid me nor replied to my followup email.

A quick ninja edit by yourself there as you removed the "However, I see by the notice on his front page that he is shutting down the pool on Sunday February 23rd and will pay everybody then." when you realised you had logged into the wrong pool. Svennands quote caught it though. Apology accepted. Smiley Again - sorry about the mail, i simply didn't receive it.

Here is my reply to his ticket response:

From:   (me)
Sent:   Tue 2/18/14 10:34 AM
To:    Support ([email protected])

I am unable to log into the account using either the username boraxo or the email address xxx and the password which I established when I registered.

When I click the "Forgot your password?" link, I am prompted to enter the email address to where a password reset will be sent.  However when I attempt to enter this email address, it only lets me get as far as (first 20 characters of email address) before the entry field will accept no more characters.  Attempting to enter my username "boraxo" results in an "Unable to find a mail address for user boraxo" message.

So, your pool is not automatically transferring my mined coins to my wallet, and I am unable to manually withdraw them because I can't log into my account.

Please transfer my balance to my MAX receive address:

You have nearly 10 max on your account now.

Again - didn't receive the mail. BUT the reset password page does allow more than 20 chars and DOES say you can enter your USERNAME OR EMAIL. I KNOW that you were logging in to the the wrong pool as the MAX pool uses the latest MPOS code base which doesn't have the 20 char limit but some of my other pools run the OLD codebase which did have that bug. Also that would explain why you got the "Unable to find a mail address for user boraxo" message.

Find it odd that you get error on password retrieval, will ask him to check the source code for limitation on that field. Login isn't an issue with 20+ char email address.
This will be resolved quick  Wink
max.nut2pools.com

Thank you for your assistance.  

The main login did accept my full 25-character email address, but told me that my password is incorrect.  I'm using Linux, so have middleclick-paste capability.  I write all the registration information in a textfile, kept on a USB stick.  I open this textfile in Geany and then highlight-and-middleclick into the registration page's individual entry fields.  Conceivably, I might have absent-mindedly pasted-in the password from another pool.  Or, equally conceivably, a cosmic ray may have flipped a few bits either in his server's memory or on its hard drive, thus blowing either my email address or my password into the netherworld.  I've been using personal computers since 1985 and have twice experienced data changes which there is no other way to account for other than by random bit-flips in RAM.

Bit flips on server with ECC RAM in a T4 datacenter in 2014?  No. I think it's more likely that you "Conceivably, I might have absent-mindedly pasted-in the password from another pool." as it appears that you have tried the wrong pool more than once...

Again, Sorry for the no reply of email, you got me there and i'll be looking at the incoming mail system in the next few days

If you try resetting your password on the right pool i'm sure it will work.

Regards

Nut

I think he meant putting a fan near the front of the case, blowing across the top (side without a fan) of the 290X.  But in my tower case there just isn't room.  I have an 80 mm fan arranged as you suggest, blowing across the short dimension of the cards onto the motherboard (the side case cover is off).
Exactly. The other configuration (parallel to the mainboard) has proven to be much less effective (at least in my case... And in my case he he ;-) )

I now have arranged a 12V 120 mm muffin fan, re-wired to use the 5V supply, to blow across the top of the 290X.  This is in addition to the 80 mm fan which cools the 260X.  

The 120 mm fan is not at the front of the case, rather sits on top of the card about 1 inch from the rear of the case.  I can mine now at 540-590 MH/s without damaging my hearing (core=900 mem=750, case cover is off).  Good Lord--you could heat a studio apartment with this thing.

Try putting a fan (at least 12cm) right at r290(x) side (near the card fan, 90 degrees to the mainboard), blowing in the card direction. Helped me reducing the noise greatly (it also reduced power consumption, the r290 fan sucks a lot of electricity when turning fast).

Not enough room to do that on my rig.  It's not on a tabletop, rather in a desktop tower case.  The 290X is on the first (physically, the upper) pci-e slot and the 260X sits below it on the second pci-e slot.  Out from the end of the 290X, the hard disk carrier occupies the rest of the space to the front of the case.

I point a fan at the side of the tower case. So the fan is parallel with the motherboard blowing fresh outside air at the top of the cards and their fans suck that in.  I think that might be what he meant, putting an extra fan blowing in to the existing card's fan doesn't make any sense.

Yeah, I don't know. You need a bigger fan though. 120mm or 140mm at least and preferably one of the super thick high pressure units. You can run these relatively slow and they still move a massive amount of air.

...I checked the page with the default difff. and after 12 hours I compared with my gains...

Over the last two days there have been massive DDOS attacks on several pools.  Thus, you may not have been mining the entire 12 hours.

...

...I checked the page with the default difff. and after 12 hours I compared with my gains...

Over the last two days there have been massive DDOS attacks on several pools.  Thus, you may not have been mining the entire 12 hours.

That's why I use 1gh as my main pool, with failover to dwarfpool if 1gh goes down.  Dwarfpool's US server, moria, seems to be down more than its French server, erebor, so even though I'm in the western US I use erebor.  Like this (I'm running Linux):

#!/bin/bash
# /usr/bin/run_cgminer, to restart cgminer if it segfaults
# to run: start a terminal window, then enter rxvt -e /usr/bin/run_cgminer
# to halt: Ctrl-C the run_cgminer window, then Ctrl-C the main terminal window within the 5 seconds before run_cgminer restarts.

export DISPLAY=:0
export GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
export GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1

while [ true ]; do

/mnt/sda1/Downloads/MAXCOIN/cgminer-3.7.2/cgminer_keccak-master/cgminer --no-submit-stale --keccak -o stratum+tcp://maxpool.1gh.com:17333 -u mS47ysKD6Zh14v2N6dZPqBXDNL3JYFQ9kV -p x --failover-only -o "stratum+tcp://erebor.dwarfpool.com:3339" -u mS47ysKD6Zh14v2N6dZPqBXDNL3JYFQ9kV -p 1 -I 13 --auto-fan --temp-target 75

sleep 5

done

Also, be sure to use the version of cgminer 3.7.2 available from 1gh (it compiles as 3.7.3).  It gives a 10-15% boost in MH/s over the earlier 3.3.6 version.  And on my Linux, I had to use Catalyst 14 beta (13.35), not 13.1, to get the 290X to run at full speed.

Here's what the run_cgminer window looks like.  At the moment, 1gh is down due to DDOS attack, so I'm mining on erebor (dwarfpool):

How do you calculate maxcoin per day?

Profit calculator and convertor for Maxcoin

http://dwarfpool.com/max/calc
This does not work. I mined with constant speed for 24 hours and the returns were only a quarter of what they claimed. Expect a 4th of what it says.

because you do not know how to read. the difficulty has been going up massively over the past few days. the calculator only tells you what you would get if the difficulty rate remained constant and your pool and miners had 100% uptime
Thanks for the reply. I did not put any diff in it I just used the default one. I checked the page with the default difff. and after 12 hours I compared with my gains. If the diff jumped ok, but It seems a big difference for 12 hours. One way or another is brings me less "money" than the Litecoin, overall still on the minus when I put the elctricity

I have a hexacore with 32 GB RAM, 1 R9 290x and 1 Titan.

I had expectations for this coin but now I know the rumors of it being a scam are true. I was hoping this coin would provide new technical features and innovation to the cryptocurrency movement but I see now that it is solely a pump and dump scam that's purpose is to devalue crypto as a whole. While maxcoin has been focusing on marketing, and trying to get on more exchanges, other coins are proving their worth with innovative new features and security.
