Mine at Jonny's Pool

Quote from: firetreeactual on September 28, 2016, 11:57:59 AM

EDIT: ...and yes, I did the gambler thing for a number of years...Hold'Em...and was quite good at it. I just watch now, though. I'm a retired profiler, and don't like playing poker online where I can't read the other players. Additionally, once I got credentialed as a behavioral scientist, no one wanted to play against me.

Gee...wonder why... Undecided

Actually, I think it would be a heck of a learning experience to play poker against a profiler / behavioral scientist. Especially if that profiler / behavioral scientist would be willing to help identify my tells and suggest ways to eliminate them

Back to mining discussions ... Tongue

I have to ditto Citronick...I've been doing this (mining) since the beginning, have been to the top of Olympus and back to the underworld a couple of times...have mined on six different pools at different times, and solo...and I can say with a scientist's conviction that you'll do better here over the long term than anywhere else.

Many miners are of the "gambler" profile...not that it's a bad thing, it's just the way some of us "beautiful people" are put together...and the luck/benefit factor is what draws them. It's also, however, an Achilles' Heel when periods of lower luck come in...the urge for immediate gratification can be overpowering, and lead to pool-hopping, which can only hurt the miner.

The long discussions we've had on transparency and operational efficiency are critical as well.

man I hope so, over 24 hours now since the last block, this isn't good.

I'm running here for a month to do a bit of a comparison to the "other" place. I was getting a consistent .05 to .09 btc per day with my hash rate. The fact they don't pay out as much of a block should add up fast when kano is hitting blocks but days like this make you leary.

On average all I need is 2-3 per day from kano to make it worth while to stay over here.....it's not much!

patience, my young padawan.

something i learnt mining at this pool is... when the going gets tough, the tough gets going -- the pool delivers one way of the other.

See the block stats - we are still well above 100% lucky.

For a PPLNS pool - luck factor is key, in my opinion.

I track the 50 and 100 blocks marker closely.

I can almost guarantee you that once you leave the pool..... you may come back later, and regret for not braving through the hard times because nett-nett at the end of the 30 days, you still make more in this pool.

Well, according to my math, we should be getting about 3.63 blocks/day on average. And when we hit this fatass block, there will be more green ones following in its footsteps Wink

Linux since 1997 RedHat 4

I'll be doing a CKDB restart in about 40 minutes.
No miners will be affected.
The web site/API will have lotsa ? for about 10 mins.

This update includes all the changes I've made (and tested) in the code over the last 4 weeks so there's quite a few in there.
The changes are all 'under the hood' to do with reducing the memory usage of CKDB and more threading of the code.

CKDB restarted all ok - was from 08:27:45 to 08:36:40 UTC (9 minutes)

Send me a few thousand to my wallet and I'll verify it for you. :-)

Two things for my bucket list...

1) I haven't found a block since 2009...that would be nice.

2) Put my grubby little fingers on an A7.

Love to see blocks in the pipe.

your need this Roll Eyes

Yes I do need something like that and I have thought long and hard about trying to install something like it. But I don't own the property and I'm not allowed to install anything to the outside of the premises. I would certainly receive a letter from the property managers saying it must be removed. Then they would probably bill me for any screw holes on the side of the house. Unfortunately.

My options are limited. Sad

I live in the western North Carolina mountains and thunderstorms pop up at a moments notice during the spring and summer because of daytime heating and cool air flowing over and around the mountains.

No, it's not necessarily (always) a power issue, it's an issue for me because I use fans to suck in cool outside air directly onto my miners and with the heavy rain, the fans tend to suck in raindrops as well. As you know, raindrops and miners don't mix.
So if the weather radar shows rain/thunderstorms heading my way or the hourly forecast indicates rain in a time period I will be away from home, I would rather be safe than sorry and shut down my miners and close the windows in the "coin room".

Damn it, I had my miners down from yesterday afternoon until this morning. I still made something because of my 5ND, but only about half of what I normally do.

I've started the miners back up and hope it does not rain today!

Good job on the blocks! Let's make more!

why is it raining all the time at your location?

does the local power company shutdown power during heavy rain?

A newb question: How do you withhold a block intentionally? by skipping a specific share that was locally verified to be the solution of the current block?

I could tell you the details, but then I'd have to kill you ...

Sounds like something from one of my previous professions... Grin
