Good! We need an active dev for YAC.

Now as to pools, I am test running a pool (pushpoold and mmcfe), both modified to work with YAC. Pushpoold hit a snag when N increased so all shares got refused. I have a temporary fix in place, but due to low hashrate (+-400 KH/s) it might take some time before I actually mine a block on my pool to confirm it really works. As soon as I know it's actually working I will put my changes on github. Aside from pushpoold there's also mmcfe which frankly is an abomination, horrible horrible code full of bugs and nasty shortcuts. Also once I'm sure all my changes work as intended I will publish them. I share your opinion that having properly working pools is critical to the success of the coin in the long run.

Good to hear someone willing to share is also working on the problem.  I'd be happy to throw you my measly hashrate to help test if needed.  I've setup pushpool/mmcfe for ltc in the past (mmcfe is indeed messy in a bunch of ways).  Look forward to throwing up a pool when things are stable.

Let me know (pm) if I can be of any help.

+1 we need more stuff like this

Agree, coins should be currency and people should sell and buy with it for coin to be anything other than speculative commodity. It's the only way for long term success.

really awesome to see someone step up on this!  Really also hoping some of the current YAC pool operators may be willing to share the modifications they made to get YAC working with the standard tools (or perhaps I missed it).  Pools are critical for more widespread adoption, and right now the choices seem somewhat slim.

First of all a big thanks to WindMaster for stepping up, YAC is indeed different from the other me-too coins and it's a real shame pocopoco pulled a Satoshi. I can and will help with code.

Of course if some of the pool operators who have confirmed working implementations already would be so kind to publish their changes instead of riding the greed wave it would be appreciated.

yacoin was being exchanged at 0.0003 btc (at 4 am), I think it is going to go even lower this week before it starts to recover

Hmmmmm, may be hope for this yet...Good thing I bought a shit ton of them, @.0003 Grin

Unfortunately for you, you were not that smart and spent most of the time talking crap on YAC threads.

This one is from few hours ago :

Why would I waste money on a coin I don't believe in?

But you still have a chance to buy few thousands up to .0005  Wink

Nice quote, but that was from a few days ago, actually...And I already bought them, earlier today, at .0003.

No, you haven't as it never went below .00035 and guess who bought it there  Cheesy (though all sold at that price was not close to shitload)

But again, it's still cheap, sell your dolls and buy few  Grin

PS. sorry windmaster, I know it's not a place for this and I'll stop right now but this one was particularly cuntish these days, was a pleasure to put him on his place.

I said something nice, about your precious coin, and you jumped all over me...Sure put me in my place...Idiot Roll Eyes

Unfortunately for you, you were not that smart (though obviously dying to leave that impression) and spent most of the time being your usual self (prick) on YAC threads.

This one is from few hours ago and it's academic line among all crap you posted :

N is calculated from Nfactor as follows:
N = 1 << ( Nfactor + 1 )

Note on hashrate benchmarks above - Hardware used was an IBM HS21 blade server containing two Xeon E5450 CPU's and 8GB of PC2-5300F RAM (667MHz DDR2), running Debian Linux 6.0, using cpuminer.  4 cores per CPU, so 8 cores total, test run with 8 threads, SSE enabled (AVX not supported on this CPU).  Combined performance of these two Xeon CPU's is in the same ballpark as a typical i7-2600k desktop PC.

Good job mate, at some time I've found it strange that you were posting some things considering that you hold lot of coins but I'm glad you stepped up and decided to do stuff to protect your investment (mine too, haha) and you obviously know your stuff.

YAC is definitely most interesting coin from all recently made and as much as original creator disappeared he at least had put some work in it and added some innovation.

I'm shit and complete noob in anything tech related but if you need some hard labour help, just shoot me pm.

Cheers
