Looks like it's back - and wasn't related to that IP block at all.

Heh
Well I actually run a luck report every single time I process a set of payouts.
Though coz I do that, I come up with additions to the luck report every so often
This current change is to actually code the base report into CKDB rather than the SQL that takes now almost an hour to run the 2 separate types of reports (but that change is depending on other changes I'm doing now to allow that)

the vigilance of a pool operator never takes a holiday

Ditto on that. I noticed as well, and figured as much, and again feel fortunate to be here.

EDIT: I posted after the other one...I'm not concerned about who it was.

Was it one specific miner/user?

Whatever you think is best for the pool is A-OK with me!

Come on BLOCKSSSSS! Drop! 

I guess the hash rate drop could be related to the IP address I blocked.
I'm working on the luck report to give me a little more idea about miner source rate changes.
Basically so that for each luck stat, it includes hash rates over recent time ranges.

But anyway, a hash rate drop should only mean an increase in variance for miners, and hopefully in this case, a little less of the less than average luck we've seen come and go since around halving.

Just noticed we have lost a chunk of hash power. Hope it returns soon! 

Need a couple more blocks for Block Friday!

Good Morning Block by 1GT2CVYr4rt!  That would be his 3rd Kano block and our 2nd of the day! 

PM me your username ... coz I can't check without it

Is there some reason payments are not showing up on the payment page of my account? I am receiving them, but there are none listed on the payment page.

They were not performing for the pool like they should have.  I don't think Kano would be more specific than that, I don't think he would tell the bad guys how to avoid being caught

I imagine this applies to any rentals, users, anything there is data for.

Personally, I would love to pick his brain on how to catch people, but I am sure he is years ahead of anything I have to offer.  The best system I can think of is say every 10 blocks or so that the pool finds, wait about 10 seconds to broadcast it to the network. However, hand out the same work that resulted in the recently found block randomly to miners and log all of the miners that don't report they found a block (or report they found a block after you broadcast it to the network).  There are a few variables to tweak, but pretty quickly you will find the dishonest miners.  Personally, I can't think of a way that wouldn't catch all dishonest miners after running that test a few times, but I could be wrong.

In the above situation you end up with about 1/600 more orphaned blocks (on average), but I think that is worth it.  Or you could do it every 20 blocks, wait 5 seconds and you end up with 1/2400 more orphaned blocks (on average) etc.  

P.S.  I don't mind making that public because even if you know it is coming, I believe it will still catch you (if the variables are tweaked correctly as I mentioned).  

Suspect how(sorry for having to ask, but you're so cryptic...)? Does this apply only to NH, or other rentals as well?

Block by cytline!  That is his 17th Kano block and our 4th of the day! 

DHL just delivered my re-purposed Acme Planetary Discomboobulator...



...to find blocks! Acme says it hashes at 5.8 GoogleHash/ms on 100W at the wall! I can't wait!

Block by 1GuDnEyYS!  That is his 2nd Kano block and our 3rd of the day! 

I've blocked a specific source that is suspect.

They have always had problems with auto-diff and the work around was to set the minimum diff manually on the Worker Management page on kano.is.  I had a minimum 10TH rental running last night to cover a down miner and it stopped using the minimum diff value and just died about 9 hours ago.  This morning even a new rental is refusing to follow my minimum diff number and will not start up.  With those crappy systems like NH/WH you get what you get...

so that mean i cant rent with NH?

thanks, yes all correct ( you mean pool config ) right, this is renting with NichHash
