1.  When I switch to PPS in the past my credits would accumulate every minute or two -- just ran it for 5 minutes and no change.  Yes, I know the disclaimer says updates once per hour but that isn't how it was working on Wednesday.
Fast update was enabled only for testing. Now it's once per hour, as it should be. You haven't noticed change in the disclaimer :)

2.  We are now past 8 hours without a block!
I know slush and tycho discussed slush's pool having issues (with bitcoind) as it neared 30GH/s.  Hoping that isn't the issue here!
No, everything is working as it should.

EDIT: Today slush's pool had at least two blocks that took more than 200 000 shares each, so it's still perfectly possible unlucky round.

I can connect but think something is wrong...

I suggest to change it so that when you're logged in (and it shows it on the top right side), don't display the user/pass login boxes.
Thanks for your suggestion, i'll fix it.
Holy crap that was fast.  Awesome, thanks!

Tough day for Deepbit - just 9 blocks  ::)
It should average out back to normal. Currently we have about ~52 000 shares per block at current difficulty which fits perfectly.

PM sent - the payment is listed on the site, but the blockexplorer link says "No such transaction".

EDIT: Got the payment now, thanks!
Oh, so you were talking about network's delay, not payout delay Smiley
Well, I don't know what the holdup was, but I sent a couple of transactions between my wallets tonight (without paying fees) and they went through immediately, so the network seems to be working without delay.

Problem with the payouts today? Mine has been stuck in limbo for many hours now.
At this moment there is NO delayed payments.
Look at your "payments" page and check if you had a payment in last 24 hours and that your balance is over threshold.
If you still think that there is a problem - PM me your login name.

Hi Tycho, your site is nice, and seems to be reliable.  Great job!  I have a small website change suggestion:  The user/pass login always shows in a box on top of the left pane, even when you're logged in.  I suggest to change it so that when you're logged in (and it shows it on the top right side), don't display the user/pass login boxes.  Instead, display "Welcome $USER" and/or a Logout link, or just nothing at all.  It _works_ properly, I'm not complaining about how well it works in the least :-)  Just that it from a UI perspective, it shouldn't continue to prompt you for login credentials if you've already logged in.
Thanks for your suggestion, i'll fix it.

I was wondering that does it harm my rewards if i reboot computer (let it cool few hours) and shares in miner starts from beginning?
(i'm not sure how long my computer has been mining in a row)

My GPU and HDD's started to make odd sounds and fan speed is 70% ..

@m4rkiz

Thanks for info, i was getting really worried about that weird noise coming from GPU. i thought it's end of road for that  Cry

Shutting down compputer and blowing possible dust away with air duster.

I would recommend against giving your computer a 'cooling cycle'. Heating up and cooling down puts more wear on your hardware than you would get letting it do what it was designed to do. The chips themselves will become useless for modern software long before actually -dying- from use. Sounds like you may need to replace a fan there though or you could burn out the chip (much more common).

Keeping it clean is a good start.

Bitcoin/Miners don't really do much hard drive activity, you may want to replace it if it's old while you can still read the data. I'd back up your wallet.dat to a usb drive NOW.

Hum, it also seems to me that we have to trust the pool owner, because he has the possibility to cheat by occasionally submitting a block on his own without rewarding users.

Yes.  This has been well established in other threads.  All you can do is monitor your rewards and if you're too far from the average over a long period of time, than perhaps consider switching pools or mining solo.  That said, there are many people doing this for each pool, so if the pool owner did cheat, it would probably be noticed unless they did so very infrequently.
