180 Ghs
ran 24 hours get 0.00984254BTC = $6.193   Sad

if PPLNS bad luck for long time, can change PPLNS to PPS?

If the fee for Pay Per Share (PPS) Method is 7.5%, is it correct that if the pool's luck (hypothetically) ran at 92.5% forever, than the PPS method would break even?  Asked another way, if a miner is using PPS, and the pool luck is below 92.5% for an very extended period, would the miner make more than if he was using PPLNS, for the same extended time period?

100% Luck = 97-98% payout after pool fee (orphaned blocks make it hard to say which one).  So technically if luck is under 95% or so, that's when PPS would have paid better (although NMC adds a little, so maybe 94%).  You'll notice the pool luck has never been that low for any reasonable length of time.  Trying to hop between them isn't possible, so while you might try to hop PPLNS/PPS and get it right some times, the odds say PPLNS will win most of the time.  Thinking you can guess when to change and "beat the system" is akin to thinking you can beat the casino at its own game.

Variance makes us happy at times and others sad.
Still could be worse.


Yeah, the last 2 and a half days have been pretty abysmal with luck.  Our 1 week is still above 100% for now, though the current open shifts make me think we might finally see 1D+3D+1W+2W all under 100% for the first time since that luck chart was added.  Then again:  That was going to happen eventually.  You can't stay 1-3% above expectation forever.

hmmm,

luck going down! even with such high TH

No doubt, single digit blocks in a shift sucks, but the luck will swing back. You can shift your workers to PPS and open shifts will still pay out.

Is there any chance of creating the functionality to delete individual workers on both BTC Guild and Scryptguild please?

I seem to recall there was some discussion about it ages ago and it wasn't desirable or possible for some reason, is this still the case now?

Thanks.

I think the chances of someone deleting a worker with unpaid shares is just too high.  If you delete a worker with unpaid shares you lose that payout and then people would be screaming bloody murder at eleuthria for something that wasn't his fault.

IIRC it's not wise to delete records due to the db structure, the best you can get is "Hide". That will filter from showing on the dash or graphs.

Yes, that means your workers are on PPLNS (the default method).

Pay Per Share (PPS) Method
Quote
You can move between PPS and PPLNS payment methods on a per worker basis under the "Workers" tab. To use PPS, your miner must connect to a Stratum server (stratum.btcguild.com/eu-stratum.btcguild.com).

How to use Pay Per Last N Shares (PPLNS) Method? where miner to connect?


Stratum Server: stratum.btcguild.com:3333

All info and examples here:
https://www.btcguild.com/index.php?page=support§ion=howtoconnect

Also, from the icons along the top, go to your Workers, select your Payment Method per worker. What is currently listed is what you are doing. So if it says PPS and you want PPLNS, click the blue button that says Change.



thanks..

Probably deliveries.  Many miners were supposed to ship at the beginning of the week people must be getting them.


6450 just like that...looks like somebody either got a delivery or jumped ship on another pool.

Daylight savings pushed us forward an hour. 

Was kinda confused when my payout times started showing an hour before this time actually happened. I am in the UAE, there is no daylight savings here. lol..
