Many on here are very impatient. Expecting a few week old coin to have basically overnight success are delusional. FTC will only be a success when the support and development for it persists past at least a year from its launch.

4 weeks and Already a fork? Lolz

I think they have to released another version with another correction. We will never be able to touch this block within 20 days.

177 block * 0,5h ?
so 3 days and 16h  left until price will go 2x up ? Cheesy

Like I said before, the current block rate is closer to 2hr. so make that the start of June not 3.5 days unless we suddenly get a hike in hash rate.

Death by further inflation of coin supply (this new fork)

OR

Death by really low hash/transfer rate (current fork)

Pick your poison. There really isn't much other options for FTC.
So basically FTC will die because you think it's crap. But then why do you folks care to pay attention for it?

Profit nothing more.

177 blocks left - once we cross this barrier it should be smooth sailing.

Well after we built it and loaded it it was crashing every 5 minutes and restarting.  We switched back to the old build and everything was fine.  If we wait for a block to be found could this solve the issue?

I have responded to you on GitHub.

It will take long time if hash rate decrease continuously. I think 32,850 was perfect.

‘Try to be nice’
FC is traded on an exchange so unlike FC2 it should probably be taken seriously.
So Chinacoin should be taken seriously? YaCoin too?

Seriously, is that what you guys do all day? Argue? This thread is devoted to the hard fork update. Is it too much to ask to stay on topic, even here?  If you need some warm fuzzies, feel free to visit us in the official forum.  Too many central planners around here, I wish all coins the best.

"So x should be taken seriously?"

I don't know, I'm not you.  Have a great day.

Psuedo Code for alt discussion

i = 0;
do forever
{
var x = " + ";
var y = "" + i + "";

post x, y

i++;
}

Please check this BushStar, there is an error in the latest update.

I have been running it on linux since it came out as the backend of a p2pool server without a hitch.

Build it yourself from source.

It is averaged and the hashrate can be sporadic, the last day would not be a great enough sample. There is one user who turns up on a pools that makes a large difference when around.

Lets examine the last 500 blocks back to block 32300 Mon May  6 14:28:13 2013


Code:
Block	 Timestamp	Delta(secs)    Time per block(mins)

32300 1367814493
32350 1367827487 12994          4.33
32400 1367844513 17026          5.67
32450 1367882120 37607          12.53
32500 1367942063 59943          19.98
32550 1368031928 89865          29.95
32600 1368139213 107285         35.76
32650 1368240752 101539         33.84
32700 1368345509 104757         34.91
32750 1368482631 137122         45.70
32800 1368654713 172082         57.36

There is a pretty obvious deceleration going on.

The network stats page us been updated to reflect the changes made. We are currently looking at three and a half days.

That figure is totally wrong, FTC has only done 6 blocks in the last 10.5 hours. Your time per block calculation is flawed and out by a factor of 5 or more. It's most likely counting blocks that were done when the hash rate was much higher in the past. I suggest the Expected Time per Block formula be changed to calculate on the blocks done in the last 24 hours so as to give a more realistic estimation.
