Add me to the list, I'm in (when the sticks arrive).
Already got cgminer-gekko loaded up on the Pi, should have the USB hub and everything else ready this weekend, so hopefully it should just be plug the sticks in when they arrive and start mining.

Add me. I'm on Canada group buy. Valkir should receive the batch sometime next week, so some time after that i will probably receive it one way or another.
There is probably still plenty of time before you find 100. Maybe do 1/50, or whatever we'll see. It's a group lotto anyways 1/37 would be pretty much the same.
30 days per run? 60?
Using ck solo sound like a decent idea, but i'm not sure how you could enforce a 8gh average minimum over it.
Im in with a sidehack stick. they arent here yet but should be soon.
Well the original cgminer -ck implemented quotas 2 years ago ........

So you'd do that with one cgminer
If it has USB implemented properly in the fork you can use --usb which I added about ... 2.5 to 3? years ago ... so you can run multiple cgminers and divide up the selection of devices.

How could I point 1 stick out of 4, all on the same hub/machine, to this and the other 3 to another pool; is that possible?
The cgminer i use(for other usb miners) let me use --scan-serial/dev/ttyUSB# where # is the usb port number. So you can run ttyUSB0 on this pool to be. Then do --scan-serial/dev/ttyUSB1 --scan-serial/dev/ttyUSB2 --scan-serial/dev/ttyUSB3 on a second .bat file for the rest.
I'm not sure if there's only BFG miner for this stick, but if so you're only missing the syntax to do it on BFG miner, which most likely has this as well.

I'm in, but my sticks aren't expected to ship until this Friday.
Phil did you start the creation of the pool ??
no I need help with proxy as I never did one. I do have many quality pc's in my house that can do the work. But my skill at setting up a proxy is basically 0.
So I can provide a pc and run it I just need help to set the pc up.
or if we have a trusted person willing to do the proxy on their server that works.
Phil, I can set it up for you on your PC ... after the initial config is done, you'll just use the web interface ... PM if you're interested, I'll do it for free (it's my pleasure
).okay I will take you up on it… Going to type out this idea. lets see how many put in.
I really want sidehack sticks so how about
A list of 100 if you hit you get 1/100 of a block. 0.24 btc
If we can not fill the list with side hack only we will take others.
every one in must send 8gh or more. if more thank you very much since you get 1/100 or .24 btc so anything over 8gh is a dontation.
let us say the prxy address is 24.001.001.001:3333 it then points all hash to ck's solo pool. this is better then 100 different ip's pointing to ck's pool at 1 address .
I will set up a solo address and manually pay the 100 players.
If you don't have a sidehack stick put yourself on the list as I am not sure how many we will get.

you should see if kano will make a special port on his pool to do this sort of prop payout.
it might be worth expanding to not only sidehack sticks but also other outdated miners that wont find a block on their own and doesnt hash enough to clear the dust filters.
Wouldn't it more make sense for ck's solo pool to do it?
cks solo pool is set to mine to payout to the miners address who finds the block..
you need a front end that will take the payout and distribute it to the miners equally..
im not sure how complex it would be to change that.
I see but then we also need some sort of additional code to only allow registered user to mine with 1 stick per, or something. Basically phil could hand over accounts and allow a max of 10gh and there would be no complicated math to do, just split in x part for the x amount of users plugged in. Doesnt matter if someone is at 8 or 9 or 12 gh.
it shouldnt matter how many sticks or ghs people mine with.. it will actually help the pool because the payout phil is suggesting is split equally..
so say you have 1 8ghs stick and i put my s3 on it for 450 ghs. when or if the pool finds a block, we both get the same amount of btc.
Sure i guess you can just put a minimum instead of a maximum, hand over accounts to those with a txid of buying a sidehack stick or a picture with their name. Then if people want to donate hashrate, they might as well.

I'm still up for it.
Heres an ideal, say only 50 people want to get in and if they each have 2 sticks (or more, depending on the number in), it's still 100 sticks and 1/100, just instead of .24BTC per person, it's .24BTC per stick.
Guess just have to wait to see after everyone gets the sticks and get a good number of how many is interested for sure.

Is this idea still a possibility once everyone gets their sticks?
