How do we check to see how many devcoins we earned in round 30?  I can see I got "39 word count", but how many devcoins is that?
You can't yet until all shares, bounties, earnings have been finalised (that's why there's a gap between end of round and start of payments). But as ballpark using files here: http://d.evco.in/charity/. As of this morning the receiver_summary was 723. That included devtome earnings pre-rating/page view adjustments of 502. Amend that 502 to 488 now (using the file linked above which adjusts total word count for views and rating), add in rating earnings gives 728 receiver lines. Then divide round generation - mining of 180m by 728 to give dvc per share.

edit: didn;t see that dinkleberg, but yep correct with some adjustments.

Thats 39 shares, the average number of devcoins per share  this round is 180,000,000 dvc / 723 = 248,963 dvc (see http://d.evco.in/charity/receiver_summary.txt)

So 248963 x 39 = 9709557 dvc

Devtome network error?
it's ok for me. F5?
Edit: I had problems earlier eeh, jasinlee mentioned there are occassional attacks since disabling auto registration so might just be that. Somebody out there must be bored or paranoid I guess - we must be doing something right to annoy them.

I had asked the same thing. Apparently we're supposed to be adding categories to the bottom of articles (like [[Category:CATNAME]]).
Damn right: http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=earn_devcoins_by_writing#style  Only mentioned it about a dozen times, otherwise it means we have to actually read every article Smiley to be sure whether it's really about sociology or anthropology - and is that phenomenological anthropology or anthropological epistemology etc etc, and really slows down all the other checks. Seriously though the author is the best person to discern the subject matter and then it's just a quick skim and sort and checking.

On another note, has anyone used the http://dvc4giftcards.us site lately, and can offer a review? I'd like to support DVC by buying directly with it, but there are limited options for that right now. Also, the amazon gift card site seems to take a hefty percentage (you buy a $1 gift card for $1.95, and a $10 gift card for $15.95).

On an interesting note, the gift card site is another site, like smeagol's ticker, that I can only access using a Tor (or I imagine another proxy if I wasn't too lazy to go check). I am extremely suspicious of this IP...
It's smeagol's store and I've used it in the past: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.3091245 but I don't know about current status/markups, maybe because of big price volatility recently. I also don't have any problem loading either site.

There's this page: http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=devcoin#disbursing_the_share. This thread can take a while to keep up with, and it's not the first one (original thread before it got spammed if you want more info: Devcoin)

When devcoin was at about 20 sats, there was no price markup.  Due to the volatile market, I've had to increase the price.  I think you may have a problem with your proxy if you are having trouble accessing the site.

@Unthinkingbit - on the devtome.csv file, it says I get a low multiplier for categorization. What does that mean?

The earnings are preliminary, because I sometimes got the error "Error 508.  Resource Limit Is Reached" when running devtome. I'll run it again today, and if it works better I'll use the new run, otherwise I'll use the one below. I hope the problem will be fixed by round 31.

Edit: The new run below is perfect, it is the final run.

Here's a link to a previous discussion on this (scroll down to follow the comments); just replace the block counts with 117,300 for end of round 30 and block 120,000 when it starts paying out: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.2645539  All the related files are outputted here and they're finalised in the time between the [start pay - end round] dates: http://d.evco.in/charity/


Cool. I'm kind of piecing it together. I think once I have a firmer grasp on it, I'd like to write up a devtome page collecting all the bits and pieces people have offered through the Devcoin thread and PMs. There are some thorough devtome pages on elements that happen backstage, like the devtome page views (http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=devtome_page_views&s[]=devtome&s[]=stats) and the devtome stats (http://devtome.com/doku.php?id=devtome_stats&s[]=devtome&s[]=stats) page, but I haven't seen a step-by-step explanation of the weighing and measuring process. If there already is one, feel free to point me to it and I'll see if there's anything I can add.

Check out the updated version of my devcoin ticker site: http://dvcticker.bugs3.com/

The title of the page updates every 10 seconds with the DVC and BTC price, there is an auto DVC calculator, and a random fact generator!  Cheesy

A chart is coming soon.

Great ticker Smeagol! And it works fine here

The payment isn't as random as it seems - your shares should be spaced out relatively evenly over the 4 000 blocks (roughly 28 days).

I've found it to be incredibly even: the total amount of DVC from the shares divided by the number of days (28), is approximately how many DVC you will receive per day.
