I've been mining to a BTC address without logging in. Can I register an account and have the previous work tied to the account or should I just wait until we find a block?

You can't join accounts.
The payout for an anonymous account only goes to the address mined at.
If you create a username account on the web site, paying out to the same address, the payout will of course be joined.
(but the stats wont be joined)

I didn't think so, thanks for the reply! I will wait until we get a block and switch over.

So when we finally find our next block is the color of the Diff% block going to be dried blood brown?

Bright red.
The longer the block > 100%, the brighter the red.
Brightest red (#ff0000) is at 562%
After 562% it stays that bright.

Though I changed the code a little after that coz at least some versions of IE don't like 3 digit colours:

Hi do you know when a miner looses internet connection for lets say 2mins
what is happening with the work at a current block,
all previous hours are lost or not? Huh

or its keeps them until
communicate again with the pool

You don't work on 'a' block as such.
You work on the current network block which changes on average about every 10 minutes or less.
The work we give you is actually updated every 30s to new work with new transactions in it.

However, your PoW (Proof or Work) is the shares you submit until we find a block.
All shares you submit, that are valid at the time you submit them, are remembered.
(we also remember the invalid ones)

When someone finds a block, we look back from that winning share back through all shares submitted by everyone back N diff shares.
It doesn't matter what work or block you were working on for the shares, as long as they were valid shares when submitted.
Any PoW shares you have submitted inside that range are included in your payout calculation.

So this means that even if the miner looses internet connection or power it does not mean much as long as the time
interuption is small, or just needs a reboot am I thinking write???

Yes, as long as the interruption is small, the losses will be minimal (this is assuming that the pool doesn't get insanely lucky in the brief interval that you are offline. If somehow, the pool found a block the second that you went offline, and then the pool found another few blocks just within the amount of time it took you to reboot, you would be paid for that first block that the pool found, but not necessarily the next few that you did not contribute any work towards, but this scenario is HIGHLY unlikely, assuming you are only offline for the amount of time it takes to reboot your miner)

ck or kano, please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, as I know that the N in PPLNS is not exactly the current difficulty, rather the current difficulty "plus a bit", as kano has described previously.

Moved the offending SP30 to another pool and after 50 mins (acceptable time to settle down) it reports 4.5+THs. Huh

There's nothing unique about the work at ckpool that would make it hash slower. Give it much longer as I find many SP30s degrade over hours/days in hashrate.

pointed a sp30 here to test
The reported hashrate is hopping between a low value ~3.75 and ~real hashing speed.
What timeframe is used to estimate the miner Hash Rate?

We know who all the biggest hashers are

If it drops a lot, it is usually a datacenter issue.

Seems he did split his rate half here and half elsewhere.
Oh well, at least it's still 1Ph total.

But we're back over 1400 TH again

I agree, I know this is a 'pure pool' I'll keep an eye on things, thanks ckolivas.

SP30's web interface lies. It reports how much it thinks it's hashing, not how much effective hashing it's doing. If it's consistently low at the pool end, there's a reason: its actual hashrate is low.

OK - thanks, interesting to know Wink

Kano, I have two SP30s on the pool and each are reporting 4.5Ths respectively (accessing the miners directly at the hosting company).

I've not set any minimum difficulty settings under 'worker management' as I believe the pool adapts per miner power.

However, one reports 4.42Ths, but the other at 3.45Ths to 3.9Ths consistently over a 10 hour period.

Any ideas?
