Did you notice the hashrate at both times ?

Hmmm, I did not... I will be sure to take a look next time...

Difficulty has come back down to 3, but was at 11 for about 30-60 minutes... Whoever's been hopping chains back and forth seems to have made a big upgrade to their hashing power...

Gridcoin at difficulty 11!!!

Dam .. just when I cant mine the difficulty shoots up :-( (Good in a way though).

About the blockexplorer : any update on version 2 of the same ?

Ummm, the block explorer seems to be having a problem:

Code:
Server Error in '/' Application.

Runtime Error

Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.

Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".





   
       
   



Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

what is the (max. achievable) total amount of Gridcoins since we have CPU+GPU mining?

what I understood is we have 168 million from GPU mining (based on the avg. 100 GRC per blocks).

and for CPU mining we have the similar amount, right? Which means we are expected to produce 2x168 Million coins in total. Am I correct?

I don't think so ... all coins follow a protocol where only 1 block gets solved/broadcast in the target time, so a particular block can be solved by either a GPU miner or(/and special case when doing both) CPU miner. So the total target would still be 168 M instead of 2 x 168 M (taking an avg of 100 GRC per block generated).

I am not so clear right now as well. How the block can be solved by CPU miner since no scrypt is running on their miners.

Good question . Its got to do with with the parameter (cpumining=true) you put into the conf file ... the client looks up that file and tries to generate grc by hashing away I believe. I maybe wrong though, maybe someone could correct .

CPU mining works like this:

You place your Account ID numbers for each project in the "Projects" list in the appropriate box next to each project.
You set your username for those projects to your default receiving address.
Your computer does work for those BOINC projects.
You get paid each day based on the amount of work done for those BOINC projects.

this I know. Just wondering how many coins can be generated per day considering both CPU and GPU miners.

And what is the total amount of coins can be mined?

Correct.
50% CPU, 50% GPU.

Sleep/Work status written to file %appdata%status.txt for s4mmy.

Is this log auto-rotated or will it just continue to increase in size...?

... unable to upgrade this client via the console as it gets stuck at "Waiting for Gridcoin wallet to exit" and after it fails it returns "Upgrade failed. The operation has timed out".

I got that message also but the update appeared to work despite the failure message. The client has been running for several hours now as version 77 and appears to be normal.


Mine did not upgrade until just a few minutes ago. It would fail out and still show as version 76. But it's upgraded now, hopefully no more sync problems...

Ok, randomly I tried upgrading again and got a remote server 404 error, then i tried one more time and it upgraded fine... Strange...

Woke up this morning to find my miner was out of sync (20 blocks behind). Restarting the client got it back in sync. I also had my other client go out of sync multiple times yesterday and have been unable to upgrade this client via the console as it gets stuck at "Waiting for Gridcoin wallet to exit" and after it fails it returns "Upgrade failed. The operation has timed out".

UPDATE : The c-cex dev has implemented volume in his API. Lets hope its good enough for coincapmarket.

Also I don't see too many people having requested Gridcoin there. Would be nice the other members who have not left a request message do it soon.
