you would actually prefer that we don't let our balances build up?

or you just don't want to process the transaction volume of people using their pool account to make purchases?

There have been a couple discussions about btcguild's payout-"restrictions" to avoid it being
misused as a bitcoin-wallet and I do understand that.

In the past, I have casually done manual payouts, and now my "Paid Out" is some quite
uneven number, and there doesn't seem to be a chance to ever get back to nice even
numbers (short of abandoning this account and opening a new one). Is there?

I'm aware that some will just not understand why anyone could even care about
"uneven" numbers, but, well, I guess it's just one example of a "1st world problem". Smiley

You're probably screwed on getting your "Paid Out" number to be a nice round number.  As you posted, the main reason to not have complete control over the withdrawal amount is that does directly encourage using your pool balance as a debit card and treating it like a bank that slowly fills back up as you mine.  Auto payouts are nice round numbers because the extra decimals don't mean much if you plan to continue mining.  Manual payouts are full-balance because if you want to quit it lets you fully liquidate every last satoshi so the idea that the pool is holding your spare change hostage isn't valid.

So far I entirely understand it.  I was thinking of maybe doing one more manual payout myself at some
well-chosen time when that would land me onto some x.xx987654 "Paid Out" number, and a bit later
(after having my erupter do some more work) do a certain *unrestricted* *donation* of 0.00012346
to this site...

API pollers would've died when the website was having issues earlier.  Shouldn't have been having any new problems since then though.
Finally! THX!

Damn, I thought my miner gained some hashing rate. So I won't get more reward from that inflated hash rate number? I'll answer that. NO. Cause according to cgminer I'm at normal speeds, the Guild website it just throwing out an inflated number as you said.
Thanks.

I don't think my miner can even go up to 600Gh/s. How is this possible?



The website issue screwed up worker speed estimates, so a few minutes worth of shares were condensed and being marked as if they were received all at once.  Nothing too big, it will fix itself as the averages get more data and the big bulk of shares rolls out of your estimate window.

Was the Guild just down? I couldn't connect for a little bit. Tried multiple browsers and even two different source networks.




Website was unavailable briefly, should be back up and running.

Just a question because I haven't been mining on BTC guild since 2011...

If I want to do merged mining with my Jalapeno, do I just connect to stratum.btcguild.com:3333? NMC will automatically be paid to my account? Or do I have to turn anything else on?

The only requirement for merged mining is that your worker must be set to the PPLNS payment method.



something changed on the api code? Android BTC Farm Watcher is not working anymore.

No changes have been made to the API yet.



can anyone help me to locate my NMC withdrawals to btc-e.com 1 or 2 weeks ago to address MzAx5buAA8FNV7tYhJTefXLfJXnHyaHgtd

it could also be a issue on BTC-E side maybe the NMC network itself? around 63 NMC withdraw 3 or 4 transactions.

thank you!

http://explorer.dot-bit.org/a/MzAx5buAA8FNV7tYhJTefXLfJXnHyaHgtd  shows 67 NMC has been received by that address.

wow, well, don't put yourself out man, I didn't mean like today lol

damn kid, have some turkey, relax, chat with the folks  Wink

I've never been a huge fan of Thanksgiving, neither were my parents.  We'll probably go out for some breakfast or something the day after instead.  I can't fathom how this holiday turned into Christmas Jr.  Hell, depending on what day of the week Christmas lands on, some people get more time off for Thanksgiving than Christmas!

any chance of parsing out total pplns earnings on the dashboard again?

I know its lazy, but that is where I mark my switch from GPUs to track equipment ROI

Total PPLNS earnings will be visible on the Payments page later today, so that the total earnings & payouts are both reconciled on that page.
