Nice!
Now, how can we make it hop ready? Tongue

Tried to add this pool, but this:

Code:

[kiwipool]
name: KiwiPool.me
mine_address: pool2.kiwipool.me:8332
api_address: http://www.kiwipool.me/json/%(kiwipool_apikey)s
api_method: json
api_key: total_round_shares
url: https://kiwipoolme1.appspot.com/

[kiwipool]
#Russian pool
#https://kiwipoolme1.appspot.com/
role: mine
kiwipool_apikey: gxnkwrusjtzxerhgeqzqndjicoxcukps
user: user
pass: any

is not working

hehe it gave me troubles too, try this one for pools.cfg

Code:

[kiwipool]
name: KiwiPool.me
mine_address: pool2.kiwipool.me:8332
api_address: http://5.hidemyass.com/ip-1/encoded/Oi8vd3d3Lmtpd2lwb29sLm1l&f=norefer

Did Bitcoin.lc just jump to ± 35% in a new round?
That would mean the're delaying stats?

Yes, they do delay stats from 0-3600 seconds randomly. Still turns out to be profitable, but far less than it would be if they didn't.

Can bithopper be set to send bcp 1 single share every so often, like every 30 minutes, to avoid hopping penalties?

nice ideea ... simulating a cpu worker

3)p2pool being the future?
I think its hoppable actually.

go on

Has anyone done more testing with p2pool?

"you will find that donating any percentage of your earnings (setting is in your account profile), you are omitted from being flagged as a pool hopper"

What am I missing?

hmm you actually seem to be correct. though I would still lke more clarification.

I did think I had read that somewhere. So I went looking for confirmation before making the post. I looked in the FAQ, by the donation drop down, the front page of the blog articles because the archive button didn't work, and then read this entire post. Butsaw no mention of donations opting you out from anti-pool hopping detection.
So if there could be a blurb added to some location that's on the same page as other anti-pool hopping information I think that would help useablity a little.

I'm glad you have this system in place,and I'll go along my merry mining way, and try not to ask for features that already exist again.

It's right above the drop-down box on the account page. It displays when you have no donation set.

and he is the site owner.

edit: i'm back on the pool, and yeah in the user section it says right above the donation button that hopper protects go away for a donation.. not sure about their various user bans for not mining for any reasonable length of time.. but I'll see.. I'm donating 1% and if any site doesnt want to screw with us, i'd be willing to give them 1% as well

i do see posts of people still [getting banned with a donation set for being idle](http://www.bitcoinpool.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=166&p=3466&hilit=donation#p3466)

on bitminers union.. have you been to their website? OH god i dont even like thinking about it.. clicking the button and then watching a movie and comping back to see if it changed pages and then watching another movie and hope it finally changes pages

I think they are just having issues.,but I will info them for a while

At the moment the site is running off a 2mb upload connection. Supposedly Monday their getting a fiber connection to the server. So we shall see. It all seems quite dodgy and at the moment I have a bad feeling a good portion of people who did submit shares aren't going to get paid properly.

so magnet.,. your mine slush test.. I'm guessing when it is set to mine you also set penalty is 4 times?

Penalty isn't set, so it's 1.0 at the moment.

Today I'm hopping for exactly a week and I should have earned 11 Bitcoins, but I earned 12 and there are stil some not paid yet because the round hasn't finished (small pools).
It will take another week to be sure but I think it works

yeah and it drives me nuts when a pool have a problem and it goes to backup rather than to another pool that is under 43%

Yeah there are some issues, and I could not figure out the specific source of them either Sad

.
Someone more familiar with bitHopper and twisted should look into this. In principle it _should_ work like that.

Yeah they keep resetting to around 30%. Least they took the negative round estimates down.

cgminer has a really cool way to change pools while mining so I switched manually to bitclocker. It gives me few connection errors here an there but shares are submitted and I get new work.

Code:

... 14:59:56] Accepted 479df52a GPU 0 thread 0 pool 8
[2011-08-07 15:00:02] Accepted 259ced85 GPU 0 thread 1 pool 8
[2011-08-07 15:00:10] Pool 8 communication failure, caching submissions
[2011-08-07 15:00:10] Stale share detected, discarding

BitHopper script is too hysterical about minor connection issues and switches pools way too often for no serious reason.

BTW, BitMinersUnion.org is fucking with stats. (I did forget to dump those guys from my cfg file)

Yup, when I add up their Top 10 hashers they did at least 2,016,514 shares this round, while stats are saying 569,533 Grin

Yeah, that is the issue. As soon as bitHopper gets an empty/invalid getwork reply or hits a timeout it switches the pool. Not sure if this is the correct spot, but something like this might work:

Code:

index 34330b2..9b23a6b 100644
--- a/work.py

If you have a slice assigned to a pool and the pool gets disabled your slicer gets "trapped" and switches to backup when all other slices are emptied. Switching the offending pool to disable or info briefly and then back on releases the trapped slices. We need a way to free those slices without user intervention when slices are assigned to a pool that goes down.

Nice find.
Fix should be a priority

Fixing the overactive and hyper switching is probably going to eliminate this problem too. I almost sure that 96% of those "SERVER DOWN! SWITCH NOW!" bitHopper panic attacks are false. Did any of you test cirz8 simple fix (https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.437231) ?
I am not a programmer but it looks logical to me

When bitHopper is mining on a pool and there is a problem, why does it hop to the backup pool while there's another pool available?
I'm using altslice.
