i figure that we are about to get fooked any way we turn, considering this situation plus some nasty noises coming from the corps re what chain will be what.
i can't stay because of "something" unknown and possible maintenance, but I can't go because the obvious second choice is in a fight.
please, don't tell me about any of china-pools.
darned

Ha ha! That's what I was thinking. Time for chicken feasting!! Cheesy
I think this is time to resort to more satanic rituals and we might have to resort to sacrificing some lambs. and maybe a few virgins.

Best share in 14 days is 928761321 but it is only a s5.

I'm sure you thought about it already Kano but the host did some updates as well didn't they about the time the luck went to not so lucky?

All the chickens are dead rooster as well. Wife hates me. Thinking of going after the dog.........BTC
do it for the pool
Not the dog...go for the cat...
P.S. My best share around 21G, ~50x more and we'd be on it!!

Anyone else here of course if you have time to do it and can, please check your miners.
What I'm looking for is a miner with a "Best Share" above Network Difficulty (1196792694098.793)
Any shares found that should be blocks, I can convert the "Best Share" share difficulty into a block hash and check it matches one of the blocks on the pool.
There aren't hundreds of blocks in the last month, so it's not hard to check.
Nothing that high that I can see.

I'll be putting in a few patches into the pool code and see if that has any unexpected positive results.
I'm just doing them now and testing them so will be about 15:00 UTC and I'll do a pool restart (in about an hour)

Now to see if this nightmare can change it's tune

With 62PH now are there still 1300 users?
I recalled there were 700~800 users when the pool was at ~60PH.

I could have sworn that there were 200 less users than that before Kano asked renters to leave. Like earlier yesterday or the day before.

For what its worth the best share numbers are much lower then 1196792694098.793
But here they are if it helps at all with any thing.
S9 number 1 best share is 7959749381
S9 number 2 best share is 2344219225

Staying loyal to pool. Thank you for your hard work kano.
Unfortunately restarted 33 hours ago, but best share since then is: 9,186,558,754
Please say if there's any other information or anything that could help you.
Question: is maintenance mode completely offline, or testnet, or something else? Will you need some miners to stay connected?

At the moment I'm still trying to get stats from certain large miners to find a single case of a miner finding a block that didn't show up on the pool.
This would show something wrong other than bad luck.
Unfortunately a lot of the big miners reset every so often and thus lose all the stats up to the reset point, so I've not been able to check that many.
Anyone else here of course if you have time to do it and can, please check your miners.

There aren't hundreds of blocks in the last month, so it's not hard to check.
Meanwhile, if this continues on for much longer, I'll consider putting the pool into maintenance mode for a few days (i.e. stop all mining) and continue my investigation that way.
I'm considering going back to the old code I ran until segwit required the update, and re-implementing segwit and none of the other random changes in ckpool.
I've been running the same code non-stop since August-8 when I added the 🐈 to the coinbase, and of course we've not had anything like this before this week.
The Aug-8 change was only a minor change to the earlier Jul-20 change for segwit. There's been no other changes I've implemented, in the past year, to the mining code.
The most difficult issue is the fact that we do find blocks, rather than none at all, thus if there was a problem, it wouldn't be as easy to reproduce.
Some large miners have already moved hash rate away, temporarily, due to the cost issue of paying very large electricity bills and other related costs.
I'm also considering completely blocking NiceHash, for any who use that, since their stats are pretty close to the 'unexpected' limit at the moment

I have drawn the conclusion the slowdown started in late July
I also do not rent much from nicehash as my luck is not very good with them. Since most hash was pointed at mmpool where hitting the block means you get the tx fees I keep track of the blocks I hit with nicehash.
I hit a few lower then I should have. So my conclusions kind of mirror kano's. I am okay at a few things no where am I in Kano's league as a coder.
