I have decided that the 'all eggs in one basket' approach doesnt work - in my opinion there are two good multicoin pools - i have two GPU rigs - one on each (roughly 1.2-1.4M/hash). If a good third pool came into existance, i would split my rigs in 3 Wink

it might not be the most profitable route but it does create the situation where in a worst case scenario i can cover my running costs and if one pool makes a substantial profit and the other doesnt i still benefit - rather than thinking 'i wish i'd been mining there!'

Would it be a "fair test" to mine on this pool for 24 hours, then stop and wait 72 hours to see the final balance of what happened during the 24 hours of mining and 48 hours of trading?

It's been done just a few days ago

Also I hope we get the unexchanged and exchanged values working properly soon. So you can actually see what's coming to you and get a better idea on things.

but balance page says everything, right? what coins are traded which is not. I think i count them all.

The balance page doesn't show unexchanged coins, and the est. unexchanged balance elsewhere on the site is borked (and has been since the system was pretty much rebuilt from the ground up post-hack).

The only figures you can truly rely on as 100% gospel right now are your actual balances, which update once a day at 11pm EST for BTC, and at the end of a round for altcoins (as each block matures). Take everything else with a massive grain of salt until nearmiss has had a chance to get the v0.2 public ledger right.

24 hours isn't really long enough to pass judgement due to the way coins are traded, for example, a bumper EAC round mined yesterday didn't get traded until today, after the daily payout had been made last night.

For a much fairer and more balanced test, check out http://www.reddit.com/r/litecoinmining/comments/1vqlhz/mchc_test_results_results_hashcows_vs/ if you haven't already.

TL;DR - there isn't much difference between the two best coin switching pools.

I think balance page tells me everything i need, right? I have another multipool account which give me same valut but with 3700khs for 12 hours.
Ofcourse i will wait this magic 72hrs but i dont think it will give something new to number i gave.

Well considering there was at least a 3 hour EAC round not traded to last night payments you will get some more today.

With the trading market changing so much day-to-day, its hard to compare a couple of multicoin pools with each other unless you mine both at the same time with the same hash rate. I tried mining a week at each but with the market swinging up and down you cannot compare properly.

Then I had an idea. I ran a couple of 7950's on both pools for a week at the same time, meaning, two instances of cgminer using two different pairs of 7950's. At the end of the week I now had mining info from both multicoin pools during the same market period.

From the results that I had, I still mine both pools but with specific hardware for each pool, mainly due to the difference of difficulty settings the pools use. Both pools are also used in the miner startups as each others backup pool.

None of these pools force you to use them, you get to pick the one you want to use. If you dont like one, then use another, no one is forcing you to use a pool you do not like.

I'm connected and things are humming along but sometimes it fails and jumps to one of my backup pools. I manually switch it back to Hashcows and it keeps on trucking.

I read on this forum that there's some question about Hashcows requiring an "older version" of CGMiner to prevent failovers, yet I couldn't find specifics in a search or in the FAQs. Is this true, and, if so, what version should I be using (and why?)

On your cgminer startup, try adding "--failover-only" to it. This helped with my miners.

In the cgminer readme.txt, the above option shows the following info:

--failover-only Don't leak work to backup pools when primary pool is lagging

Thanks, AbiTxGroup! Just enabled that and we'll see how it goes. Definitely seems touchy.

Anyone have any answers to the following:

For calculating profitability (whether or not I should stick with the pool) I am reading in this forum that 24 hours is not enough time; I need to wait for 72 hours due to a delay in auto-selling alt coins. Again, I can't find confirmation, nor do I see this in the FAQs. Is it true?

As far as The Hack, is there an official response post somewhere about it? I searched and, yes, you guessed it, couldn't find anything but general conversation. I understand I totally suck at searching, but please help me out and point me in the right direction. I'll even happily accept a "RTFM" response as long as you point me to the URL where TFM is located!

Is there a page (or sticky post) somewhere that details what upcoming features are being worked on? Many posters seem to want a visible accounting system, which I would like as well. It's tough to determine how I'm doing with just a single number up there and no way to determine the time span during which that number came to be.

Thanks again, and my apologies if these answers are all out there and I just fail at searching!

A little heads up for the Cows, it seems the atack vector used on the hack has also been used in other pools, such as Give-Me-Coins.

My LTC adress there is blank, but they did not give a shit about my LTC balance (forgotten 0.03 LTC) Tongue

Hi guys, I'm new to the pool and just had a quick question as I couldn't find the answer anywhere.

I've been mining for about 9 hours so far and under my balances both in the Statistics page and in the User Info > Balances and Cashout page all say 0

How long does it take for coins to start accumulating in my account? Even if it's just 0.00000001 - I'd like to see it. Even on middlecoin it lets me see that I'm actually making some coins.

Why mining EAC? It's the least profitable alt coin right now...

I highly doubt that

EAC is on a 5x payout reward right now. It's pretty profitable for us.

10 minute EAC rounds? At this difficulty and hashrate, 10 minutes is nearly the average block time per gh/s lately...

Sad to say, but it looks like I'm going to make .025 btc at MC for the 21st, @1mh/s

If balances are fixed, I would like to call together a pool party to get the pool hashrate here higher for a few days, see if profits level out.

That sounds good. I am noticing my profits level slowly coming back. With more hash power I think things will get back to normal.
