Kano, Thanks for all the new data on the CKpool pages it's very interesting.  

It's  going to be nice to watch the shift data change when I add rented hash. 

Less than 10,000 satoshi payments keep going into your balance, not into the actual payment transactions.

Thanks, i like to know what amount is considered dust???

I've also renamed the MPayouts page to Rewards ... but am thinking about the naming and adding text at the top to explain that it's not what you have in your wallet yet for some of the blocks at the top that aren't paid yet (not +101) or any dust.

Smoking!

Kano HAT trick 3 green blocks!

... and another block God delivery just now after I edited ... less than 7% ... awaiting confirm

Using the info from the new MPayouts page I did a spreadsheet to see how well my WestHash switching thresholds were working with the PPLNS here.  I ran the numbers for February 14-28 to exclude the first week of winding up here.  During this time I had 4 miners set to switch to WestHash at different percentages: 2%-4%-6%-10%.

The intention was to improve variance by having a low fee PPS mixed in with the PPLNS, but the combination actually appears to have greatly increased my variance.  There was a consistent trend that all of the good blocks here always followed a long period of my miners being on WestHash.  I expected this to average out (to have an equal number of good switchovers as bad ones), but it never did.  Granted my sample was small (14 days-- plus the ramp up week before the sample remains consistent as well), but there is also a possible variable which makes it hard to treat as a closed system.  That variable is others renting from WH to point at this pool.  The exact interaction here is complicated and is beyond my ability to calculate, but I almost certainly was mistaken in treating the two pools as completely unrelated for my purposes of switching.

Anyway, bottom line, had I been 100% full time on this pool, I would have earned ~0.192 BTC more than I did by switching on/off WestHash.  Had I been 100% on WestHash I would have earned more than switching here as well, but not as well as being here full time (though this is difficult to calculate precisely).   So, at least at the low levels I set and during the time span I tested, it is not beneficial at all to switch on/off WH with PPLNS like I used to do with PPS on BAN.  Speaking of BAN, despite my bad luck in settings I still earned slightly more here than I did with BAN previously... not sure how that happened.

You will be seeing a lot more hash rate from me on this pool.  I just adjusted my thresholds to 6%-9%-12%-15% so that I spend a lot less time at WestHash.  I'm going to regroup around the next diff change and will probably bump them up more then as well.

do auto adjustment it settles around 325 or 330

I just joined your pool with 2 Ant S3+'s to try it out.
SHoudl I leave the difficulty at '0' for automatic adjustment or change it to 256 for the S3's?

Thanks!

If you need help setting things up or if there are other things you would like to see on there, let me know.

Yayyy canaan!!   

Nah, the rounding dust is worthless until BTC hits $100,000

But the block Gods have blessed us again - another one - this time 44%
(and confirmed)

Ah, finally a little more than dust for some of us. That was another long drawn out block maybe lady luck will visit us again soon. I suggest all of the rounding dust collected be put back into supporting the pool running costs. Anyone else have a suggestion?

All those who sent sacrifices to the block Gods ... finally worked.
Another block has arrived thanks to canaan - and charlotte was the shift it was found in

Anyone who mines less than 10,000 satoshi in a payout, doesn't get that in the payment transaction I send out, but it shows on the MPayout page.
It's kept in the wallet but also known in the payout information so that at some future stage I'll add a way to send the dust out once it's clumped into dust bunnies big enough to be paid - which I'm sure there are a few accounts like that already.

FYI: The total dust collected since the pool started is ~0.25BTC however that also includes any payouts that didn't become payments due to an account not having a payout address at the time of the payment.
Again, they are all there on the MPayouts page, Paid, Dust and Unpaid.
Verifying the 'Payments' and identifying which 'Payouts' haven't been paid is still on the todo list - that just currently involves processing the bitcoin transactions from the payment address: 1KzFJddTvK9TQWsmWFKYJ9fRx9QeSATyrT which is all also stored in the blockchain for the payments made.

Edit: oh there is also some satoshi left over after each payout sent out coz I round everything down in the code.
On average each payment line loses 0.5 satoshi
It's a small amount but also simplifies the process of generating the payment transaction to ensure it doesn't exceed the amount in 1KzFJddTvK9TQWsmWFKYJ9fRx9QeSATyrT since that is a hard limit that cannot be exceeded in the payout that normal rounding can cause.
Think of it as, you average 0.9% + 0.5 satoshi per payment
The 0.5 satoshis just collects in the wallet also, with the dust. One day in the distant future all those 0.5s may total 1c

well, i was joking, but hey, more data for the server to chew on
i was trying to work out what you men't by dust, other then the handful of miners pulling a few satoshis here and there..
but you men't the few satoshis that the mining doesn't get counted?

just K.I.S.S.

OK, lets get the blocks poppin!

Hey Kano, great work on the site. I enjoy all sorts of stats, but the shift names are right on the mark.

I checked out http://ckpoolmonitor.zachmonroe.com/ and it has some great things as well. I need to work with it to figure out how to see my personal stats but I like being able to save off the charts in various formats. GG Zach


So I'm teaching myself linux, or a better description is I loaded it on a lappy and run it alongside win7 dual boot. I want to learn, and the way I have learned everything is by picking a project, researching, and asking lots of questions. If anyone has a good site they think would be sincerely helpful for an Ubuntu n00bcake such as myself I would appreciate it. My first project is learning to secure a linux station, but the next and real one I am looking forward to is setting up CKproxy. It sounds like it makes the most sense to point all miners at once and things like it. Not that I move them, but other than M's miner monitor I haven't found any "mining software" which is open source, will run more than a few miners without paying first and supports some other things. I'm not Mr. Cheapo who doesn't want to pay for software but I do not like giving up more total % as many require, or $100 USD to run 12 miners before you even get to check out the real features.

I ran on from ckproxy to miner software but I understand CKproxy isn't mining software, it happens that CKproxy has features miner control software does.

Back to work for me and again, GJ on the site Kano!
