I wish Namecoin was worth $5 a coin like the old days. Because we're mining the hell out of it 
Indeed !
I don't see how that's true. The CDFs for the NMC blocks isn't amazing. There's also plenty of blocks that had more shares than the difficulty. So put the hell back in the coin, and make it pay out more

WOW, another stale block...

Anyone else got nothing in MNC unconfirmed section but we still have 2 blocks not fully confirmed ?
Sorry, I was doing some upgrades on the web server and it put the unconfirmed balances out of action for a while. Should be back to normal again now.
Thanks Doc ! :-)

I guess this is not what you'd like to hear, but when the pool was new and very small we had a couple 14-day rounds. Also at some point we had a block that took 11x difficulty amount of work. Luck that bad is quite rare though. But I believe there are pools that have had even worse rounds than that.
When the pool was small of course that it is logical for longer rounds.
It would be nice that we can see somewhere percentage of luck from the pool. Week, month, year, all time.
I know that you have luck in statistics, but in all those dots I am not sure if anyone can get some monthly percentage...

Yup, never took so long for a block.

I've been looking though the history, I don't think bitminter ever had a block come close to the work needed for that stale block at 205,335,750,976 shares. And now coming to 53,000,000,000 on this current work. It could end at any time or I don't see it possibly going past 500,000,000,000 shares total. Sadly, I am figuring this pool is really due for an awful long block like that.

Now also my best shifts wont be payed out. Cant burn miner to the core all the time.
Still waiting for a valid block. Almost 6 days now...

4 days without a block an then stale block comes.
Now already a day without a block.
So 5 days no payout just electricity costs.
Few days before also more than 3 days without a block.
Will this bad luck soon come to an end ?

I was looking at the OpenID 2.0 as an option and I shied away because of what I perceived to be security issues.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, coz I'm not too sure about it all, but doesn't the new OpenID 2.0 mean that google logs you in to the web site, the pool credentials are no longer the control of access? i.e. someone only needs access to your google account to login to the web site?
I find google very persistent at keeping me logged in even when I logout on my browser, so I'm very much NOT a fan of google security
(for other reasons also)

(for other reasons also
)The only way to make sure that your out of google is to use for instance gmail/google+ and logout using the top bar, i agree its pretty hidden for most users but you could have known google actually wants you to never logout (they allways wanna spy on you
).The downside is if you use google for syncing data (bookmarks and stuff), anything after you logged off will not be synced.
I found if you do not really logoff even opening a private browser page is being tracked by google... so its pretty persistened.

And all this was within a few days.
This is called variance. This old post will explain it for you I hope: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2769824

I dont know but this pool is kind of not paying me for the hash im putting in.. Anyone have any idea why? So i moved to a different pool for now.. Also when i started on this pool earlier i was getting 0.001 pay, then 0.0004, then i overclock, and gives me 0.0008. So when i first started mining on this pool it gave me .001 and my hash rate was 2,200, and right now its overclocked to 2,800 and its giving me 0.0008 and now its at 0.0000000.. I would post my screenshot of the shifts work effort but there was no add pic attachment on here. And all this was within a few days.

Auto generation of workers now available.
How to use:
Valid worker names are 1 to 20 characters long, consisting only of letters and numbers.
Auto generating workers make it much easier to set up a large number of miners or to move miners over from a different pool. If you have the same user name in both pools you can even move miners by just changing the pool URL. For compatibility both . (period) and _ (underscore) are allowed for separating user and worker names.
Auto generation of workers can be combined with a default worker. If you mine with only the user name or id the worker name you set is invalid, then the default worker is used.
If you use only the user name or an invalid worker name and you do NOT have a default worker, then there will be an authentication failure and mining will not be possible.
How to use:
- Make sure the team effort perk is enabled, under "my account" -> "donations & perks" in the website menu
- Go to the workers page, under "my account" -> "workers" in the website menu
- Turn on "Auto generate workers". It's a checkbox just below your list of workers.
- Now you can set your miners to use new worker names and the workers will be created automatically. No need to manually create each one at the website. Note that this only works for valid worker names.
