So, I followed the procedure but I am still getting the "wrong mail" error:

Command" : "cpids"
},
{
"Project" : "einstein@home",
"CPID" : "7ab90b82259fda59e33973c59ddf430f",
"RAC" : 8174.00000000,
"Team" : "",
"Verified RAC" : 8188.00000000,
"Verified Team" : "gridcoin",
"Is my CPID Valid?" : false,
"CPID Link" : "http://boinc........9ddf430f",
"Errors" : "CPID invalid. Check E-mail address."
},

My e-mail is correct in the gridcoin.conf file - it's been so for a few days. What could be wrong?

The new POR GRC is a stake coin, so you need to have a grc balance to stake. Here is the calculator: http://pool.gridcoin.us/ProfitabilityCalculator.aspx

Before doing anything I recommend you to read this page http://wiki.gridcoin.us/Main_Page to familiarize yourself with Gridcoin and it's history!

Is there any profitability calculator for this coin?
How many coins will get if mined along with BIONIC?

I know what grid coin is.
I have a lot of mining experience.
But manual profitability calculation is boring.
Just interested in what I asked.

Thanks for the link.

How does this work with the new pool website and pool mining? How can you GPU mine additional Bionic projects not listed in the projects console?

For now the pool is down but when it comes back up Rob says we will likely be returning to the "poolmining=true" method.

To work on any BOINC project that you wish, just use the same methods as you used to join the ones listed in the project console:

1) Click add a project
2) select the project from the list
3) enter new account info
4) click next
5) click finish

I found that if i specified the following lines at all, then it would give me an md5 error. However, i did misread the instructions and applied it despite the default installation location being the place i installed gridcoin/boinc to.

Hey Bob! Mind if I use this on www.gridcoinnetwork.org? I'm remaking it to look better and be a little more organized/updated so it's currently inoperable. I'll give credit to you in the article

No worries m8, feel free!

That was easy to follow and efficient, you definitely just made Gridcoin accessible to many more people. Awesome job, TribalBob!

I want to use the linux guide later, thanks.

I will try to get the linux guide up in the next 24 hours, I need to partition a drive for Debian on one of my boxes and do the process myself first and I just didn't get time today. I will get it done ASAP.
