The rate that the pool website displays is usually off. Go by what cgminer says. As long as your WU is good and have no HW errors you should be ok.

yea I can understand if they aren't coming in the same at the exact same time, but its consistently lower. I may have had a few hw errors? (will check next time) but the wu is good. I think I might try tweaking the config file again at some point. i'd like to give doge a fair trial but if its underperforming time and time again I see no reason to stick with it.

Difficulty for doge is still pretty high and rewards have halved recently. Maybe I'm a little OCD but if I don't see payouts coming in, I tend to not mine. So for doge, I unfortunately always mine at multipool (their dogecoin port, not the silly profit switching one). They have 10k miners and I get a fairly constant stream of doge every few minutes

i'm the same, as in I try to make decisions on it once I have calculated the yield from the established results. from looking at the prospects with it, I realised dogechain pool wouldn't net me enough to continue trying. i'm gonna either need to change something and try again or just stick with what i'm doing and not mine dogecoin.

gave this a try out of curiousity but the results weren't good. weirdly cgminer reports decent hash rate, 800+ and consistent. yet the pool site reports only about 500 max and frequently a lot less. this is in stark contrast to the performance stats for litecoin, the pool site for which tells me i'm averaging at about the right rate. its really up and down with litecoin, sometimes a lot higher than what I actually get and sometimes its lower than what my card is doing but it averages out about right. whereas with doge, its just completely wrong and totally under the expected result. I have a r9 290. would be interested to know if other people using 290's are doing better and if so what configurations you are using.
