Hello all,
Quick update. The 1 btc payout maximum is gone. So PPS miners and any others who have pending balances should be paid out every hour. Currently, the limit is 0.1 BTC but that may need to be adjusted depending on whether our blocks actually get confirmed. The first of these payouts has just gone out.

Just to get a clear answer. I need to mine a full 1BTC before getting a payout? Is this correct?
Correct, though this restriction is going away.

It looks like something is wrong with the server. The main page throws up errors when checking the hashrate, etc.

Anybody getting disconnections like every 10 minutes?

EDIT: I'm unable to reproduce the problem I reported below. Please disregard it. It might be that my readings were wrong somehow. Thanks, martok, for looking into this.
It seems the pool doesn't support switching between pps and score-based using the same address.
I had a little more than 1.2 BTC in my account when I switched from pps to the score-based system (I kept the address and just deleted the pps suffix). It worked fine and I saw my positive "proportional" balance on the RPC, but my pps balance suddenly went down to 0.16. I think, since the shares hadn't been paid yet, the system assumed that they were submitted to the score-based scheme (it showed around ~12BTC, which is too high for half a day's work @ 2.4GH, even with optimistic calculations). Some time after I realized this, I went back to the pps scheme, which caused my "proportional" balance to also go to 0.
I wish the bug can be fixed and I can get my coins back, but either way: Use a different address for pps and score-based accounts.

Ah ok, sorry misread your question. That shouldn't happen, my script doesn't cache anything so the data is always fresh when you (re)load the page. The values must have changed inbetween you opening my page and opening the other :-)

Another little update I pushed, but pretty useful. You no longer have to enter your worker address in the text box every time you want to fetch the stats.
Simply visit http://continuumpoolrpc.appspot.com/ for instant gratification. You can bookmark this address for easy viewing of stats at any time. Enjoy.

Worker hashrate dosn't work for me. I see: Worker hash rate: 458.129844 MHashes/s but it's different from what the continuum say
Pretty much what PoulGrym said, it's only an estimate of your hashrate depending on how often you're submitting shares back. But it should fluctuate around your actual hashrate so don't be worried if you see it below (or above) your actual hashrate.
Ok, but what i tryed to say is that what this page say (http://www.continuumpool.com/hashrate.php?worker=xxx) is different from http://continuumpoolrpc.appspot.com/; now it works i don't know why

Ahh, Yes you hash at one rate. Still the shares are produced at some what random intervals. Those are then taken in to an avg account from the pool's point of view. In the long-term you should be hashing at the rate you see. Still the pool will only see the shares it gets.

Here is my nice and simple Continuumpool stats site using the RPC protocol. This is pretty rough and I still haven't implemented the monitoradd() and monitordrop() methods but they will be soon. Anyways give it a go and give me some feedback on how to improve it. Thanks.

Edit: Now with even more pool and worker stats! Will try to get the monitoradd() and monitordrop() methods working sometime soon.

After some Googling it seemed to me that mere mortals cannot use it. But soon most (all?) of the functionality should be available from the website.
So no one knows how to use it? xD
I use it. It's a programming API. You have to write code to use it. If you are interested, here are the details on JSON RPC:

Okay, this is going to be a newbie question, I apologize in advance. How do you use the RPC interface?
After some Googling it seemed to me that mere mortals cannot use it. But soon most (all?) of the functionality should be available from the website.I've written a script that makes use of a Python RPC client to communicate with continuumpool's server. I'm currently trying to see if I can make it an app engine site otherwise I will release it as an executable.

I've been wondering the same thing since day 1 lol...
Do you connect through the client, in some sort of command prompt, what? *confused*
