can we do merged mining at btcguild? Can't find the instructions.

I've got some wishes/questions about the btcguild website:

I noticed, that on the "PPLNS Stats" page, 300 lines of the
Shift History get loaded to the client immediately, and only
then paginated on the client. Would it be possible to add
a pagesize of 300  (currently 5,10,25,50,100) to have them
visible all at once?  Maybe even a button to save the data
to some csv file? Is the full history available, too, or does
old data get pruned from the database once it "scrolls" out
of the latest 300?

thx in advance Smiley

I'm planning to add a CSV export to PPLNS stats shortly.  As of right now the full history of all shifts is still part of the database, but only 300 (was 200) shifts are loaded.  You can still scroll back to the detail view of any shift when you click 'View Details'.  In the future I will likely perform some kind of consolidation in order to compact the size of the PPLNS history database table.

BTC Guild's implementation of MM does sacrifice NMC rewards in order to keep BTC efficiency completely untouched.  However, that would only be ~10% of a difference, not 75-80%.
Excellent!, of course BTC is the most important one!
Thank you for explaining it Smiley

Question:
is it possible that NMC implementation could have a bug?
I have the exact same hashing power on another pool, also merged mining, I am doing the same amounts of BTC but the amount of NMC is about half here.
nothing that takes my sleep away, NMC worth very little today, just wondering if it is something wrong there or just bad luck in nmc the last 3 or 4 days.
 

I'm pondering the same here, I have half of my mining power pointed at Bitminter and my name coin income is 4-5x higher then here.

The pool is finding roughly 1 in 3 NMC blocks.  That is what is expected when the pool's hash rate is roughly 1/3rd that of the NMC network.  There is no bug in the assignment of NMC either, I can clearly see that 97% of NMC block rewards have been assigned to miners.  My only thought is maybe BitMinter only allocates NMC to miners that have NMC wallets set?

Well difficulty has doubled so I guess they were mined. But they looked low to me too...

too bad people started to sell NMC for nothing now ...

If you think that people are selling under value, then buy! Wink

How often does this happen, and why?

ID       Block #    Block value
16100  241685  34.00440500   

Anytime the value of inputs exceed the value of outputs the network considers this a mining fee and awards the difference in value to the miner along with the block reward.

In this case the transaction responsible for most of the mining fees is http://blockexplorer.com/tx/6a19240a85ad189d404098af0a80f7f894a7e7916f034cd473f5569a4d85a499

It probably happened because someone manually assembled a transaction and didn't get the inputs and outputs right.

It doesn't happen that often.

Not sure if I reused my password or not anywhere else but I was unable to change it. I get database error...

and luckily BTC Guild's error message doesn't give insight to whether or not a username guess was valid [bad username gives the same error as bad username+password]. 
You should also make sure timing cannot be used to deduce status, or maybe you do that - add a random delay or make sure that any timing difference is much less than network effects.

As many of you have seen, the site has mostly been in the Cloudflare 'Under Attack' mode since yesterday.  I was away from my main computer and did not want to have the site performance suffer.  Many API users should have still been able to access the API from their home/office, but phone based applications probably had issues.

The site is back in normal operation today.  I'm continuing to log and blacklist the attacker, which is helping keep the site from having the performance loss we've seen in the past.


Users of BTC Guild:  Please take this time to consider if your username/password combination has been used on any other site.  This brute forcer is NOT using a random guess.  It is absolutely comparing against a HUGE database of leaked username/password credentials from other websites.  99.9% of the attempts don't match a BTC Guild username at all, and luckily BTC Guild's error message doesn't give insight to whether or not a username guess was valid [bad username gives the same error as bad username+password]. 

However, if your password is repeated on a site that leaked their database at some point, your account is at risk.  Just as an example:
The brute forcer made over 4,000 attempts for usernames between 'ketan9binny' and 'KingCid'.  Each one had very specific username/password combinations.  Some common usernames [kevin for example] had multiple attempts with different passwords, indicating they are comparing against multiple leaked databases.

Is getwork extinct now ?

Getwork is still alive, but very unsupported.  Unless a lot of people are complaining, the getwork servers are left on auto pilot and not monitored for performance decreases.


can anyone tell me?

HOW can I DELETE my btcguild account???

You can not delete an account.  Simply abandon it and it will eventually get pruned into an inactive database.  However, the earnings and payout history related to an account will never be removed in order to have proper accounting records of outgoing payments.

HOW can I DELETE my btcguild account???

I don't know either, but what's the problem with just not mining anymore (or somewhere else)
and about next day retrieve the remaining funds, then just forget about it, yourself?

Why do you want it explicitly DELETEd?
