Ok, so I'm a little confused (get used to it Cheesy

). As I said, I've mined at Triple and Pol for a while and then the script changed me to another pool. The Triple and Pol shares are now decaying down to zero. I thought the point of hopping was that you used pool's that didn't decay shares, so that even when you jump away you still get paid for the work whenever the block ends up getting solved?

Like I said, I'm easily confused Cheesy

Your shares isnt decaying, it just becomes a smaller percentage of the overall shares, thats how prop works and thats how you score out of prop system.

for the love of whatever you believe in, please edit the user.cfg file to make it easier to read in notepad/wordpad

for the love of whatever you believe in, please edit the user.cfg file to make it easier to read in notepad/wordpad or whatever. its a giant garbled mess and it would have been a lot easier if you just put in USERNAME and PASSWORD isntead of a bunch of your own usernames and passwords. im left searching through the file wondering what to delete and what to keep in... all the role and Xrole junk throughout the file... come on... you took the time to code and release this but the one most important file, the user config file is the most confusing part of your work...

i would even donate if the user cfg file was user friendly. im sure ill eventually figure it out, but its really gotten on my nerves!

specficially the mtred_user_apikey:#####################################+role ... is that an error? or is the +role a command? because the xrole thing seems to be your username or password or whatever... so im supposed to put my mtred password after the api key? or before? or why is the +x beforehand and the +role after the key...

dikidera is that you?

scite
notepad++
crimson editor

take your pick man. notepad? really?

if the user cfg file was user friendly.

Should have seen it before it was cleaned up and separated from the rest of the pool info.

I'm not sure why you're seeing a "role" at the end of the api key for mtred (maybe a copy/paste accident?) It should look something like this:

Code:

[mtred]
# Good for hopping, fast pool for hopper-starters
#https://mtred.com/user/registration.html
#CHANGE THIS
role: mine
mtred_user_apikey:d91c52cfe1609f161f28a1268a2915b8+
user:scarium
pass:x

You want to replace all of the text after mtred_user_apikey: with your api key (in the example in this file, it happens to end with a +). And, of course, user and pass as appropriate.

haha I think you should get a better text editor and come back if you have issues
the user.cfg.default file should look like this

I hope everybody isn't completely sworn off Bitclockers - they've found 4 blocks today.

And look who one of their top workers has been:

gnaget are you hopping them or riding 247?
Hasn't been a bad time to be 247, tbh.
Also, I've been running with Cherry Picker on more and more rigs for the last day or so. BitClockers doesn't seem to block, delay, QOS, etc. using CP. Interesting data point.

Well I hopped them for a bit, and of the times that the pool wasn't red or dishing out stales, none of the work I actually did is showing up on their system. Screw that.

Also (sorry to bump myself) is it even worth spending time at bloodys considering it's taking them around 2/3 weeks to find a block?

I don't mind waiting

Me neither if it's profitable, but is it?

or are better off sticking with pools that have more regular turnover? Or does the script take care of all this and I should just leave it be?

hey guys, dunno if c00w is around to answer, how is slicing suppose to work ? launched with --scheduler SliceScheduler , had 2 pools in sight (don't know if bitcoin.cz aka slush counts) and jumped like usual, nothing to see in console either just normal output, only when launched it said selection of the scheduler.

haha no he changed his "poles"

You see, thats the second person who started to poolhop and I totally understand why however where is the conviction that poolhopping is the anti-christ when they in fact end up doing it aswell.

It just shows how much people actually believe in what they type around here and that it doesnt take much to change their tonal poles Tongue

"money talks" sums it up.

So what happened to you, did you turn to the "darkside" ?

You were also so vocal about us being locus eating the pools and flying away o_0

Ok, so apologies for the noob questions but I'm new to this

I currently have the following setup:

MINE:
Slush
MtRed
BTCPool24
BitcoinMonkey
Bloodys (currently working on that now)
ozcoin
polmine
rfc
triple

INFO:
BTCWorld
bitminersunion

BACKUP:
eligius
ars

The rest disabled (bitclockers was just red most of the time).

Is that too many, not enough, any I should add/remove?

I also noticed I spent a bit of time mining at polmine last night, then it switched away in favour of another pool. The shares at polmine have now decayed away to almost nothing. Is that how it's supposed to work (it mines at pool's hoping to find a block in that time, and if it doesn't it just gives up and lets it die away to nothing)? Same goes for Triple.

Thanks guys, appreciate the help

Also (sorry to bump myself) is it even worth spending time at bloodys considering it's taking them around 2/3 weeks to find a block?

everybody is new to this so don't worry Wink

you're good to go with that setup, I suggest you reading this paper if you want to know more about pool hopping

Does anyone know how to capture an error message from bitHopper?

windows?
right click the title bar of the cmd box and select mark... mark what you want to copy and then right click the title bar and select copy

I'm learing everyday!
Thanks Grin

The error (after the work.py and lp.py update of 2 hours ago):
