For the last 6 hours there has been no movement and the block chain is frozen at 4243. I assume this will clear up when it reaches the next 24 hour cycle and recalculates the difficulty.
Paccoin has only been out for 3 days and has already generated over 2 million coins in circulation. Difficulty as of 11-13-2013 is 7946.45825933 which is phenomenal.

not sure what that is, what were you trying to do?
I have shut the pool down temporarily while I look into why we were finding blocks but these were not showing up in the paccoind client.
Seems that all found blocks are being rejected due to a Sign Failed error when calling submitblock through the paccoind API. Anyone know what I've missed, l'm guessing it's due to POS but not had this problem on my other pools before.
This was a much nicer launch than all the ones back when there were new coins every day and all massive orphan-fests of insta-mining.
So its looking pretty nice to me so far compared to pretty much all the others I tried setting up right away when they launched.
If you do manage to enable merged mining that would be really cool as the existing panoply of merged mined coins has no PoS coin yet so it would help round out the set of merged coins,

it works now... mined 6k coins... however does not know if it worth it... no exchange whatsoever...
Right now trying to get a blockchain/merged mining/pool setup, but an exchange is on the todo list
The orignal post is crappy though, to find out the port and the RPC port I had to grep through the code.
Sorry this is my first post, I have added more info to the original post as we improve this.
How much pre-mining?
none, this was all last night by someone else.

next useless coin
solomining 70GH/sec
is not giving any blocks
new network, go easy big fella. solomining 70GH/sec
is not giving any blocks
Instead of pre- / instamining, we now have coins without a compiled Windows-QT to make sure not too many people will mine it from the start.
yeah,
one million coins already mined
diff is 7.12GH now
i was since start, get no connections (using starting thread nodes)
after 800k coins mined i get finally connected
and now getting only rejected blocks using 70GH/sec
this is ridiculous lol
I got several blocks on ~2.3 GH/s, 1 orphan and 5 mined. And after it I got nothing during last hours.
The network is growing, and it sounds like you hit it hard, before it could compensate.
ok, the network is now stable, thanks for all you early adopters!!
I have shut the pool down temporarily while I look into why we were finding blocks but these were not showing up in the paccoind client.
The paccoind api is not returning any transactions using a listtransations call ..... any ideas?

Oh the hiding block contents maybe means Luke's miner program would have liked to use the protocol that lets it see the whole block and even manipulate it to suit your own tastes.
(Uh wait, what do you mean by bfl mining? I glossed over that part, assuming you'd said bfgminer. Which hopefully is what you meant. The hiding blocks part just seemed so Luke.)

Are you maybe trying to use scrypt miner instead of SHA or something like that?

BFL - butterfly labs - aka asic - aka completely not a scrypt )

It is maybe Luke's way of saying he is forced to use normal protocols instead of the fancy new protocol he champions that gives the miner access to what is really being mined, instead of forcing the miner to not really be a real miner at all just a dumb hasher blindly hashing any damn thing the real miner (the pool for example; the entity that is actually deciding what exactly is to be mined, whether to merge mine, whether to include your friend's transactions or not and so on and so on) chooses to have the hashers blindly hash.
blktmpl likely means block template. He wanted a block template, and that is not what you normally get/use, it would let miners tell when pools are screwing them around and so on thus is not real popular yet.
So he probably fell back to getwork protocol, and without long poll.
From there on it looks just like cgminer.
