Getting quite desperate in finding a resolution for my missing doge coins at multipool! WTF, I know this site has a quite good rep but I can hardly imagine i'm the only person who's hashes are not correctly payed by multipool after their 'downtime'.
Very nice coincidence (for them), having these strange issues with the site just now doge has quite good value... I'm getting more and more skeptical about the honesty of the site owners, tried to get in contact via IRC, email, this forum, all without success.
I'm missing around 30k Doges from that day, and that's a very low estimation because normally it should be more but hey, let's go from an bad day scenario... (mining at 8Mh/s)
so far I've received 6k doges for my hashes while I was mining long before the site had its issues and I kept mining during the issues as they stated it was just a front-end issue... hence, I only switched miners at the moment stratum was not giving work anymore, so this was like 15+ hours later or even more.
So, at 8000kh/s, for mining during more then 15 hours, I got 6k doges, I don't think that's normal, do you?
Anyone else having these issues? Can somebody from the admin team please check or contact me to find a resolution
I am behind approximately 500 emails, send me a new email with your username and I will take a look at your account.
BTW, having extremely public downtime and not paying people for shares submitted would be an extremely inefficient way to steal money.
True, but after now several days I don't really know what to think anymore...
Anyway, i forwarded you my email again, thanks for having a look at it!
Grtz,

So just to clear up some misconceptions:
This all happened Friday night. It's Sunday morning. It's been a day and a half.
The DB didn't go down until approx. 5pm Central time Friday Night. Once it became clear that things weren't going to recover in a reasonable time period, I shut down the pools, this was at around 8 or 9pm. So there couldn't have been more than a few hours worth of shares lost (some stratum instances recovered and dumped their shares into the DB after the DB came back up)
All of the blocks that were found paid out without any manual intervention, once the shares were reimported. This means that there were shares in the DB for all of those blocks.
It's possible that there were some anomalies, but for the most part payouts should be correct. It's also possible that many people switched off after I changed the website notification at ~7pm recommending that people switch to another pool and there was not enough hashrate left to find many blocks.
Ok, i'll summarize my view on things, timezone CET+1 (Amsterdam)
- Around 15:00PM strange thing in stats, no more blocks are being found anymore for doge (quite impossible with the huge amount of hashes multipool has)
- Around 18:00PM I notice stats are already speaking of several hours with no blocks, some people say not to worry, it's just the stats that are off, so I continue my mining.
- Around 20:00PM (can be later or ealier, don't remember exactly) Frontend goes offline, message says not to worry, workers are still okay. I manually checked my workers and indeed, they where still showing blocks and work found by stratum.
- Around 01:00PM front end still down, people say not to worry, stratum still up
- Around 10:00 AM, wake up and check my workers, see that they stopped receiving work from 07:00 AM, no problem there I understood the site was having issues and those things can happen...
So, there was no payment from 15h until 07h next day... = 16 hours of work @8000kh/s
After the issues where resolved I got 6000 Doges, wow such richness, much amazing, so generous!
See my point? It's not only when the front end was down, their clearly was already something wrong hours before that
