If it's one of the shiny new B16 S7s, yeah it's loud. REAL loud. I had to encase my two little banshees in a styrofoam wind tunnel to get the noise to something bearable, since I have no separate room for them (living room).

Was up at 0200 our time to check on a data recovery and saw the blocks coming...woo hoo! I can deal with that...  Cool

★ these are stars ★
I got my S7 power supply delivered on friday and I'm now waiting for the S7.
It ha been delayed because DHL had no clue what a "bitcoin miner" is.
(as if they couldn't Google it...)
It took a few email exchange (and a tax payment) to get it cleared out of customs.

Expecting it tomorrow now... 3 days lost...

So received and connected my shiny S7 to the DK node, DE as 1st failback, main as 3rd failback. (from France)

maybe I'll be lucky and hit one with this (loud) baby.

4xS3+ and 4xS5 turned off untill I find a suitable hosting place for them (got a 2keuros raise on my annual power bill, and kWh price has increase over 30%)

... and to say a little more of my post above that got interrupted by a block Cheesy

Making them lose a bit more wont really make a difference to anyone withholding.

Paying everyone fairly is way more important.
... in my book 'fairly' means based on your work done vs the rest of the pool.

I expend effort and time to track miner problems, and in my opinion that is what's best.

The real issue is actually chickens.

I ate chicken for dinner just before we found that last block.

More chicken sacrifices required Smiley

Edit: oh and I know who the new top miner is, so as I guessed before, it is all hardware and no they wont ever be withholding.

HAHAHA seems like the VooDoo code it´s working... more sacrifices !!!!

Block solvers do not get an extra reward.

My math is crap but if you run 80TH you should be on top of this already

PPLNS here is based on 5N - so it averages your performance over a longer period than "n" i.e. about 2 days previous to hitting a block.

Your rewards - all depend on the luck of the pool.

Pool has good luck - you earn more.
Pool has bad luck - you earn less.

As an example (and assuming you have been mining at 80TH for 2 days previous) these are some guesstimates of your daily earnings (based on my actual earnings here).

Yesterday at 80TH - you would have earned about 0.512 BTC (8 blocks)

The day before at 80TH - you would have earned 0.192 BTC (3 blocks)

On average - if the pool has 100% luck you might earn approx 0.256 BTC +/-  (based on a particular point in time yesterday - 4 blocks - but as hash keeps increasing lately on the pool your per block payout decreases but the number of blocks SHOULD increase - my math falls apart at this point)

The luck here seems to usually be over 100% - so you might hope for slightly better.

A clear comparison with F (something) Pool (PPS at 4% fee) which currently pays  0.00248538 BTC/TH - you would earn 80 x 0.00248538 = 0.199 BTC approx if they actually paid out to this figure.


Hope that helps - cheers - usukan



So how do i find out how much btc i make daily on pplns with around 80-90 TH?
do block solvers get xtra reward?
and how do the payments get redistribusted?

this is so confusing the pplns?

any help would be appreciated

Thank you very much usukan,  after a couple of days mining it started getting clear to me.   Wink

Colonel Sanders has been sacrificing chickens for years, the real question is do these "Blocks" taste like chicken ?  Huh

this chicken is too cute to be sacrificed to the Goddess of Blocks... we will save him instead for Block Wednesday.

On PPLNS you already lose when you withhold.
The bigger your hash rate, the more you will lose.

The simple issue is the question: Why would someone withhold?

The pool is fine the way it is. Paying a premium to the person who finds a block to dissuade block withholding is essentially paying a bribe - like paying "the mob" "insurance money" to make sure nothing bad happens to your store (no offense - I appreciate that you're offering ideas). Kano does multiple checks and statistics to stay on top of this - I trust his skills and efforts. Now, how about another block? I need some green  Grin

Just like you get paid for valid shares (which prove you did some work), paying the person who finds the block is the exact same thing same thing (but much more valid).  You can call it paying the mob (however, I am not sure how that is simular), I call it rewarding behavior that you want.  Isn't that how the world works?  I am not sure how rewarding good behavior is like paying the mob, you must know some really nice mobsters Smiley

Anyways, I never said to change this pool (I even explicitly said not to change this pool, but it would be a cool second option).  

The problem with checks and stats is you need large numbers for that to work.  If one guy mines and has been paid say 50 BTC, but hasn't found a block, how statistically significant is that?  That should naturally happen 1/4 of the time, it isn't statistically significant until you pay out hundreds of BTC and only later could you realize there is a problem.  

Like I said, I don't want to change this pool, but it could be a good hybrid between solo and pooled mining.  Personally, something like a 80/20 options is more appealing to me than the current system or solo mining.  I realize others might not be in the same situation.

All I am trying to do is find the system that is least likely to be attacked, while retaining the advantages of pooled mining.  In the past, this pool has had great luck, I would like for it to be in the best possible position it can be in.
