This was originally an aside in the thread about Coinotron appearing to find even blocks which it shouldn't have been able to find, hence the lack of detail. From IRC on the 24th:
22:39 <@RealSolid> ah shit
22:40 <@RealSolid> looks like the artforz went away
22:40 < TimothyA> RealSolid: and the blockchain got hacked
22:40 <@AhimothMobile> yeah
22:40 <@RealSolid> oh?
22:40 <@RealSolid> hacked?
22:40 <@AhimothMobile> not hacked
22:41 < Sharky112065> !blockcount
22:41 < SCBot> The Current Block Is: 40106
22:41 <@RealSolid> it just got slower because his geforce 4 army went away
22:41 <@RealSolid> difficulty will adjust to it soon
...
22:55 <@RealSolid> the b7 just fucked over artforz and his polluting node
22:55 <@pho|> no, works perfect
22:55 <@mtrlt> wtf
22:55 < BrightSky> RealSolid: What exactly was wrong with before b7 nodes?
22:55 <@RealSolid> we now have capability to remove his malformed time blocks
22:55 <@mtrlt> it shouldn't matter at all what pool it is, for detecting hardware errors
22:55 <@RealSolid> BrightSky: artforz was setting time+1 on old block because there was no way to detect "oldblocks"
22:56 <@RealSolid> so if he took 40s to solve it, he was effectively saying it was only 1s
22:56 < BrightSky> lol
22:56 <@RealSolid> its just a minor thing really, not much damage can be done with it, difficulty gets a few percent higher than it should
22:57 <@RealSolid>
but its a malformed time, so b7 added code to detect malformed time and deny the generates22:57 <@RealSolid> and we can now also detect "old blocks" live, we will enable this sometime today
22:57 < Hadri3n> Hey at least their hatred causes bug fixes
22:57 <@RealSolid>
yah well hes out a few thousand SC now22:58 < dribbits> mtrlt: should squid and coino show the same target shares? its the only thing I see different between the two pools in reaper
22:58 <@RealSolid>
and a corrupted wallet he will have to hand cleanI'm not exactly sure how RealSolid is remotely corrupting ArtForz's wallet; retroactively invalidating previously-confirmed generates is probably the obvious answer but if RealSolid can do that then we're all in big trouble. More from a couple of hours later:
00:04 <@RealSolid> we'll have to find out later how many blocks of artforz were "nulled" due to the change
00:04 <@RealSolid> seems he didnt realize for some time after the switch
00:04 < TimothyA> RealSolid: he probably doesn't know now..
00:05 <@RealSolid> TimothyA: well hes stopped mining
00:07 <@RealSolid> his last block 40055
00:07 <@pho|> rjb82: every hash you can squeeze out is worth it if you dont care aboot cost overhead (electricity)
00:07 <@RealSolid> hilarious
00:08 <@pho|> what did artforz do? i musta missed some drama?
00:08 <@RealSolid> hes been mining with incorrect times trying to drive difficulty about 5% higher than it should be
00:08 <@RealSolid> its not that big a deal in the scheme of things but i added code to null any shit blocks like that
Then really interesting bit is this:
00:10 <@RealSolid> so now we wait and see if he comes back to enable more measures that are in b7
00:11 <@RealSolid> shall be interesting
00:11 <@RealSolid> i enjoy wasting his time and money
Which implies that there are more "measures" in the latest SolidCoin that RealSolid can use to invalidate ArtForz's blocks. And then, a few hours later:
08:50 <@RealSolid> artforz is back it seems using coinotron minerid
08:50 <@RealSolid> "fooled us'
08:52 <@RealSolid> see how we make artforz behave?
08:52 <@RealSolid> no much malformed time
08:52 <@RealSolid> good boy artforz
Entirely coincidentally, later that day trusted nodes later started intermittently refusing to approve blocks actually mined by Coinotron:
23:05 < TheHarbinger> Coinotron, but it's still not showing any rewards for the current round.
23:05 < Coinotron> That is completly different issue
23:06 < TheHarbinger> Well, fix it.
23:07 < Coinotron>
We are currently in mode "Trusted node doesn't like Coinotron's blocks"23:08 < d34th> OH SHI
23:08 < Coinotron> Only RealSolid can fix it
23:08 < TheHarbinger> Sigh, back to solo mining. lol
23:08 < d34th> become trusted node
23:08 < d34th> sign own blocks
23:09 < bulanula> how do you become a trusted node without the 1.2 million coins ? impossible ?
23:09 < Coinotron> but after a while our blocks will be accepted again, then not accepted and so on
23:09 < BrightSky> what did you do to piss of RealSolid, Coinotron?
23:10 < Coinotron> Maybe this small pool of LiteCoins ?
