So I poked around with solo mining BBQcoin a bit, as I've never tried solo mining any coin before, and I found that almost every block that I found is listed in the transaction log as "generated but not accepted" with 0 confirmations. I've also found that the BBQ client runs with 8-11 peer connections if I am not solo mining, but drops to 0-1 connections once I start mining. Can anyone explain what is going on?

make a .bat file and put it in the same folder as cgminer.exe and name it something like launchBBQSolo.bat
in the file put something to this effect:
Change the shaders to the amount of shaders your GPU has. And you can mess with the intensity as well but I found 12 works best if you want to use your computer while mining.
Save it as a .bat, not a .txt file.
Then just double click that .bat file to start mining. With BBQ you will still probably get a few rejects, I know that's what happens with me. I think it's because of the low hash rate and low difficulty.

Is this normal? i'm new to soloing
My guess is, from your hashrates, that you aren't running cgminer with the --scrypt flag, which you need to. BBQCoin, like Litecoin, is based on the scrypt algorithm. Essentially your blocks are being rejected because your miner is doing the wrong kind of work.
How do I download the client and install the block chain??

Here is a download for the current blockchain for BBQcoin.
This is for people that don't want to bother to wait for the chain to download.

Any problems, let me know.

I need a link to the bbq source on git captchadd can you post it?
BBQcoin IRC is at #bbqcoin if you fancy have a chat and seeing what's going on.
Best to leave it open for a while as we are all in different time zones.
Thanks.

Check out the trading section on the bbqcoin forums.
It is new and in beta but might be a good place to start, I know a few people that are looking to buy some serious amount of BQC.

Looking to buy a chunk of BBQ, I am hungry. I want to purchase 300K BBQ for 0.50 BTC. Or more. PM me.

That's good news. BBQcoin is ready to go for a pool and then next being put on an exchange. This coin has been around for a while and runs will no problems and do have a mining base at the moment.
I can add BBQ once I'm done adding LTC and PPC to my pool.
Can't download the blockchain right now though....

anyone got a working link for reaper?

The difficulty and hashrate is too low, so, I don't think that BQC will have any pool soon...
When an exchange announces support, hashrate will go up.
So we need an exchange that says "if diff > x we launch BBQ trade".
hehe, I would alone move it 30 times higher if it would make it into a exchange

Last time I checked was 0.007 or 0.0007, can't remember the amount of zeroes.

What's the difficulty at? I installed the client a few days ago but was taking ages to download the blockchain.
No need for a pool right now, but that doesn't mean it can't be done. Even the slowest CPUs could participate on this in that case.

I would be interested in a pool for bqc... anyone running one?
